furnish to the census bureau their
holdings from time to time as re-
quested by the bureau, so that now
We are in a position through this re-
solution to collect the figures from
the United States, and at the same
time supplement them with the flgHr-
es that We get through the census
bureau from the foreign holder: OF
cotton, and thereby present COM
plete and absolute picture OF the cot
ton trade. the amount produced and
the amount needed BY the manufac-
turers.'
In answer to questions by mem
bers of the committee, Mr.. Lever
said fur, her: "The census bureau Is
now issuing a report on September
Il. The heavy selling period Of cot
ton, when it goes out Of the hands
Of the farmer, ranges from Septem-
Der to January l. The census bureau
is furnishing only one report a year,
that Of September l. That furnishes
rather incomplete information and
this resolution proposes to give to
the cotton world, through the heavy
selling period, the figures Of con-
sumption and stock on hand, so that
the farmer will be Informed from
time to time Of the necessities Of the
manufacturer and may put his cot
ton upon the market in a more intel
ligent Manner
The ginners' report. now being is
sued, costs 100000, and Congress-
man Levers proposition will cost in
the neighborhood Of $4,000.
In the course of his remarks d.
rector Of the census. Mr.. North. said:
"I regard cotton from the interHa-
tional point of view as the most i'm
portant crop that this country grows.
and there is no doubt that 1Hese IL
cures are as valuable across tie
ocean as they are in this country. |
think also that there is no doabt that
the price of cotton is fixed BY foreign
conditions more truly than is The case
with any other staple. This !s the
fact which these gentlemen have IN
mind in desiring this legislation.
TIE Hon. D. C. Roper, who Is III
charge of the issuing Of the girners
report, also discussed the advisab1llty
of Mr.. Levers resolution at some
length.
In conclusion Mr.. Lever continued ::
eff there are no further questions, l
am very much obliged to you for
your courteous attention, and in con-
clusion let me say that I regard this
as a very important matter to the
cotton industry Of this country, and
as suggested by the director, Mr..
North, there is no opposition to 1t
from any source. 1t is not a contest
between the cotton growers and the
cotton manufacturers in any sense OF
the word. It is only an effort to COM
plete the cotton picture of this coun-
try so that we may see it in its full
ness and act upon full information
both as sellers and buyers. should
be very glad, indeed, if the commit
tee sees fit, if we could get a favor
able report at the earliest possible
moment in the hope that we may be
able to get the resolution passed at
this session Of congress. I thank you
very much.'
It is likely that the committee will
give its report on this proposition at
an early date, and Mr.. Lever Will
leave no stone unturned to have the
resolution passed.

The festivities opened with a parade led by the Cit izens' band. the town and club off, cials in carriages and automobiles, es- corting the Wakefield team, which was followed by about 200 enthusiasts in line by the time the grounds were reached. The C. A. C.'s arrived too late to get into the parade, and car ried the same derelication into the game, as they let Wakefield get a long lead on them before they responded tc Chief Sullivan's call for a rally. This came in the seventh, when they pushed four runs over the plate and nosed out Wakefield by the narrow margin of one tally, 6 to 5.
 Marra pitched one of his best games on record, having IA strikeouts to Mill ler's [. From the sixth inning on the game was played in the rain, Wake field wanting to call it off, but the C. A. C.'s refusing to agree to hold up. The score:

5ARvARD's ATHLETES
 CAPTURE INTERCOLLEGIATE.
Three New Records in Track Events Yale Second, Pennsylvanis Third.

The crimson jerseyed sprinters. murders, leapers and weight throwers brought to Harvard in the Cambridge stadium Saturday the thirty fourth championship of the Intercollegiate as- sociation, for the first time in nearly decade.
 Although Harvard was never headed in the race for points after the meet was fairly under way. the quality of the athletes representing the twelve colleges was so high that three records were broken, new times being made in the mile and two mile runs and a new height set in the pole vault. It was the mile record from minutes 20 S-6 seconds, made in the stadium tye years ago by his fellow collegian. Guy Has kins, to 4 minutes IT 4-5 seconds Then P. J. Taylor of Cornell ran the two miles in g minutes 27 3-5 seconds, more than seven seconds off the former record held by F. A. Rowe of Michigan of minutes 34 4-5 seconds, also made in the stadium two years ago. The new pole vault mark was established by c. s. Campbell of Yale at 12 feet 3 IA inches. the old mark of 12 feet, held by Dray, Gilbert mad Nelson of Yale and Cook of Cornell, standing just one year.
 Yale, which was looked upon with 1dNOI lOI lHe IIttSly lltu IO uBHl udi u for second place, being pressed by Pennsylvania, with Cornell, another favorite, a close fourth. Michigan was fifth, Princeton sixth and the rest of the colleges trailed far behind.
 The final points were as follows: Harvard 39 1-10, Yale 25 7-10, Penn sylvania 22 1-2, Cornell 20 12, Michi gan 14, Princeton z, Syracuse g. Swarthmore 8, Haverford 8, Dartmouth ? 1-5. Columbia g. Brown 1.
 It was the great running of Foster, who beat out Dawbarn of Princeton, in both the sprints, the fine teamwork of Harvard in the quarter mile, the exertions of Captain Rand and Gard ner in the hurdles, the agility of the crimson men in the high jump, Barr's pole vaulting and Little's victorye in the shot put which gave Harvard the meet.
 The best individual performances were by Foster and Capatin Rand of Harvard, Paul. and Hartranft and Minds of Pennsylvania, Captain Howe of Yale, Cook of Cornell, Dawbarn of Princeton, all of whom were point win ners in two events. Foster and Howe won two first places the former in the dashes and the latter in the hurdles.

Leading Local Twirlers Open Memorial
 Day Sport Programme.

Such galaxy of varied sports as Memorial day in this city presents to the Norwich followers has seldom been equalled and none will probably prove any greater as a drawing card than the opener at 10 a. m. at Sachem park, when the 'Stonington champions of the Rhode Island Connecticut league will be here to lower the colors of the Nor wich c. A. c. team, which has yet to be beaten this season in their league career. On the two opposing sides will be the two most prominent of the local twirlers, as Zemke, the much touted Hospital box artist, will be working for the c. A. C.'s against Jackie Gallivan, the strikeout artist of the Stonington champs. That it will be battle royal goes without saying and the partisans of the rival pitchers will be out in force to see the question about their merits settled.
 Tn the afternoon at SSO on the same field. the Norwich -Taftville champions of the Eastern Connecticut league will have Jewett City for opponents, hay ing played them in Jewett City in the morning. Boucher for the NorTaft and Moore for Jewett City will do the box work in both games. L'Heureux of Jewett City will catch for Nor-Taft. Manager Benoit states that his team is out for both games. The C. A. C's go to Stonington in the afternoon, where Nara will pitch for them and Bowers for Stonington.
 At the fair grounds, beginning at ? o'clock. will be the horse races and Marathon races for those interested in this line of sport. and a fine afternoon Is assured. The handsome prizes in silverware offered for the runners are on exhibition in the windows of Smiths drug store and will make trophies worth the striving of the athletes whose names are seen in the Driving clubs advertisement in The Bulletin.
