Collection of Cotton Market Statistics
TO Be a Part of Its Duty.
DANISH ISLANDS BILL WAS TAKEN UP
The Senate Also Passed a Number of
important Bils-Short Exec
utiVe Session.

Washington, February 11.--After an cx-
tended debate the senate today passed the
bill establishing a permanent census office
The discussion related principally TO the
collection and publication by the director
Of the census bureau of statistics respect
ing the production Of cotton. Mr.. Allison
vigorously opposed the provision, maintain
ing that the cotton statistics gathered by
the department of agriculture we're com,
plete and accurate and that NO necessity
existed for their duplication, Despite his
opposition the provision was inserted in
the bill.
Several bills Of Importance on the calen-
dar we're passed, among them one extending
the charters of National banks.
After the conclusion Of routine business
the senate at 1890 p. m went into eX-
eeutive session to consider the treaty pro
vlding for the acquisition Of the Danish
West indies, but resumed business In open
session at 2:15 p. M.
Consideration was resumed Of the pernla
nent census bill the pending amendment
being that ofleed by Mr.. Tillman providing
that the director of the census should issue
monthly bulletins from October / each year
until and including March /, on the pro
duc4ion of cotton as reported by the gin
ners.
Mr. Allison opposed the amendment. He
pointed out that returns Of the cotton crop
we're now being made to the agricultural
department from every ginner in the cotton
belt and ventured the opinion that the re-
turns were as accurate as could be obtain
ed by human agencies

American League Will Adopt Its Last
Seasons Playing Code.
Chicago Record Herald
American league clubs will play under
the same rules last season and the code
will be published In special guide issued
by the organization. This statement was
made yesterday by President Ban Johnson,
who has apparently decided to arbitrarily
settle the rule questions for the league him
self and disregard entirely the work of his
committee at Buffalo.
This ultimatum makes impossible any sec.
ond session of the Joint rules committee
and indicates that there will he another con
fiict in the playing rules of the two big
leagues throughout the season of 1902.
1t is quite certain that the "Spalding
four" at least viii play under the foul
strike rule in force In the National league
last season, and In the event of any COM
promise between the two National league
factions the entire organization will prob.
ably use this code.
With the major leagues divided, the NIL
nors will again be left TO choose between
the two codes and another year OF mixed-up
baseball laws seems certain.
I'VE made one try for uniform rules. and

way that President Johnson sized up the
