cording to fArl Rusamore's opinion, is
an associa. ion of merchants formed fer
the advancement of business faci1i-
ties ana does not constitute a monop-
oily of, the cotton trade He urged that
no pArson purchased cotton through the
cotton exchange of necessity but only
for convenience, and in all cases with
full knowledge and acceptance Of the
( rules of the exchange, He showed that
| no conditions existed which would pre-
| vent a purchaser from ignoring the ex-
| change and purchasing directly from
the cotton grower, or from any one
else.
In applying a liberal construction
to the complaint and 1ndulging in eV-
cry fair and reasonable amendment
in it's support said Referee RushmOre
in his opinion, 1T appears that a u
o faction does not exist, the court has
no discretion, and should not try a
mere barren issue which can be pro-
ductive of no fruit in the end
The motive of Mr.. Prices move was
shown on Saturday morning, May 4,
when in spite of his sworn allegation
on May 2 to the court that he would
suffer irreparable wroag unless he was
granted an immediate injunction, he
had his attorney call up the attorney
for the exchange and II opOsed to aban-
don his entire onjunctiOn proceedings
if the exchange would consent to al
i'm roaHia+o hoo mi a. of mo .aCp hpfOc0
a referee. To this the exchange agreed
and on May 9th the case was sent to
Mr.. RushmOre as referee.
On May 18th when he hearing was
begun, Mr.. Taft moved to dismiss the
entire action on the ground that Mr.,
Price had made his purchases of cot
ton under the rules o. the exchange
and that he had failed 10 avail him
self of the remedy provided by the X
change rules for re-claSsihcatiOn and
for indemnity from its inspection

has been chown, and that he has fail,

This motion of NJ. Taft was sus'

to whom tho supreme court referred
the litigation brought by Theodore H.

change, today threw Mr.. Prices entire
action out of the court n the ground
thai he lacked q cause Of action.
In granting the motion of Henry W.
Taft. counsel for the cotton exchange
and Diminishing the Price suit, Mr.
Rushmore laid particular stress on the
fact that the rules Of the New York
Cotton Exchange provided a remedy
for Tie correction OF errors in the
classification of cotton, and the referee
also Ecfif6d attention to the fact that
his femedy' could be prevailed of by
Mr.. Price through the brokers who had
executed his contracts.
1t also wds held by the referee that
Mr.. Price in purchasing cotton con-
tracts thrOuSn OIohelS oh IHe NC"
York Cotton Exchange, had by those
contracts agreed to the exchange sys-
tenn Of classification. and it was al
forded by the rules of the cotton eX-
change before engaging in any legal

Furthermore, the referees opinion
held that Mr.. Price had shown - il
reparapble damage, i any, to HIM
b yany of the alleged acts of the ex-
change officials, and it was held that
IN Injunction against the exchange
classification committee should not be
granted because Of the apprehensions
