Bears First Fruit
Reform Committee of New York
Metal Exchange Would Follow
Recommendation.

NEW YORK, July o,-Following the
recommendation OF the White committee
to Governor Hughes the reform committee
of the New York Metal exchange, It was
learned today, proposes in the report which
1t has submitted to the board of managers
that the committee of quotations be aban-
doned. The reform committee believes quo
tations should be established by actual
transactions and. therefore urges dscon-
tinuance of the present daily quotations
made by the committee OF five Of the metal
exchange, which were criticised by the
special committee appointed by Governor
Hughes.
1t will be possible to make deliveries on
contract by varying grades OF metal, the
seller receiving a premium or deducting a
penalty on his contract. 1t is believed by
the members of the committee that under
this system there could be no corner in
metal until the entire supply of standard"
had been bought up, a contingency which
is thought to be out Of the question.

The mysterious disappearance of Judge

of the Douglas County Bar association
which mentions him by name.

to Miss Esther Wells. He was elected
judge of the district court in 1889, but
served only a part of his term, resigning
to resume the practice of the law with his
old firm.
During the latter part of July, 1892, Judge
Clarkson returned from a short vacation
visit to Hot Springs, S. D., and two days
after his return he left home for a little
