1t Is Operated Uadep u DECEASED and
Fraudulent Contracts Saws thu
Official Report.

The charge that the New York Cot
ton Exchange Is a ganb.i..s irs.itu-
tlon ana not a mercantile exchange
is practically sustained in the rcport
submitted to President Roosevelt nv
Commissioners OF Corporation Her
bcrt Knox Smith, just made public.
MT. Smiths report is based on an
exhaustive investigation begun short
~ after the adoption by the House
OF q resolution introduced by Re-
representatives. Burleson and Livingsto,
on February 4. 1907. That ~rcsolu-
tlon was aimed to ascertain why
the contracts sold on the New York
and New Orleans exchanges brought
about such violent fluctuations in
tn" pSicc OF cotton, II also to learn
whether the members Of the cXchanp-
eS, by combining among themselves,
brought about depression in prices
because, Under the terms Of the con-
tracts, they could deliver any one of
thirty grades of cotton. The charges
which sem 10 be upheld, in part at
least, by Mr.. Smith. include Inc fol
lowing:
That New York City has ceased TO
be a commercial spot cotton market,
and that the Now York Cotton OK
change, operating under its present
d"basrd and fraudulent contracts,
has developed into a purely spccula-
tive or gambling exchange. and that
the grades Of cotton shipped to Kew
York and tcnderablc'On the contracts
under the rules OF the New York Cot
ton Exchange cannot be used for
commercial spinning purposes, and
thai such grades OF cotton arc used
solely to dcprcss the price OF Spinn-
bic grades in the South, to further
the speculative features Of the New
York Cotton Exchange, to the heavy
dctrimcnt Of the entire legitimate cot
ton trade Of the United Statcs.'

WILL ACCEPT BIDS
FOR CUBAN CENSUS
Giving Of Printing to Private
Firm Allows Comparison
With @. P. O. Prices.

Chief Clerk William S. Rossiter Is
spending a few days in Boston. before
going 10 northern Vermont. to spend
his vacation.
While in Boston he will secure estl-
mates for the printing OF the Cuban
census, which is TO be let out on con-
tract. The Government Printing Ofhce
was not able to do this work, because
IL is not Government work, the money
TO pay for it coming from the Cuban
treasury.
The officials OF the bureau think the
Cuban printing will afford an opportu-
nifty TO compare the work OF private
concerns and outside prices with those
Of the Government Printing ONCE,
which Will give them a fair basis to
work on for the printing of the next
census reports. About 10000 cards Of the
1900. 900 embraced in tho Cuban census
enumeration have been punched" or
tabulated, making the work about one
fourth completed.
The urgency deficiency bill which
passed Congress in the closing hours
carried an appropriation OF $1,000 to pay
Mr.. Rossiter for his services in connec-
1ion with the recent investigation OF the
Government Printing Office.
