Lo avoid the application of the new
Missouri law which attaches a 25 cent
tax upon each transaction in futures.
The national board Of trade will con
tinue its operations in this city for

forcement Of the new act. Many
members have already left the board
and taken membership in the recently
organized Kansas board of trade in
Kansas city, Kan. The new board has
on its rolls the names of scores OF
Kansas farmers and bankers, in addi
tion to the operators in futures. If the
terms Of the statute are strictly car
ried out, it is expected transactions
in futures will be rendered unprOfit
able and all bucket shops will be driy
