patch from President Kern:
Orders for futures are being sent here
with distinct instructions for execution
after close OF the market. Please inform
your members such instructions contra
vene our rules and render associates send
ing them liable TO expulsion
The dispatch was read to tho members
OF the local exchange. and President Nc
Dougall sent reply stating that the
members had been notified as requested.
The incident resulted In a good deal OF
talk, for 1t has been alleged for some time
past that the men who were conducting
the big bull campaign in the cotton mar
ket have been manipulating Liverpool
cotton quotations for effect upon the
speculation here.
Another burst OF strength in cotton yes
