two APPOINTMENTS DELAYED.
Assistants to Cabinet Officers Await
Return of Chiefs.

White House officials have no intimation
from President Taft as to who he will
name as assistant secretary of commerce
and labor and assistant secretary of the
treasury. The resignation of Mr.. McHarg
as second officer OF the Department of
Commerce and Labor has been before the
President for two months, and 1t was
expected that the Office would be filled
long before this, especially as Mr. Nc
Harg had made professional connections
in New York which he wanted to enter
upon. AS it is now, Mr.. McHarg does not
know when he will be relieved of his Of
flee.
In all matters of this kind President
Taft gives his cabinet officers a free
hand. 1t is supposed that he has done SO
in these two cases. and that the delay in
making the announcements is really with
the Secretary of the Treasury and the
Secretary of Commerce and Labor. The
latter is away on his vacation and Mr.
MacVeagh is still enjoying himself In his
summer home in New Hampshire
number Of rumors are af1oat, but 1t is
pretty well understood that no definite
action has been taken. When the recon-

STANDARDS OF COTTON.
of Agriculture to Issue
Replicas Soon.

Reposing in the vaults of a safe deposit
company here are nine black mahogany
boxes which, it is expected. will play an
important part in the annual six-hundred-
million-dollar more or less) transactions
in cotton in the United States.
The boxes contain the nine standards
Of cotton which have been approved by
the Secretary of Agriculture and which
were decided on by a committee of a
score or more cotton men in all sections
of the country. Access to these standards
can only be had by committee designated
by the Secretary of Agriculture.
In a short time-perhaps within day or
two-the Department OF Agriculture will
have replicas Of these standards and
place them in the hands of limited num-
Der of associations, organizations, ex-
changes and agricultural colleges for in
spection. The sets will enable the cotton
producers, merchants and spinners to be-
come familiar with them by September 1.
1910, when. 1t is expected, they will gov
ern all transactions in connection with
the buying and selling OF cotton. 1t IL
said they will take the place OF about
thirty varying standards now in use.
