COTTON
DEALERS CHEAT
VICE PRESIDENT OF 'CHANGE
FEELS lNSULTED
Arthur March of New York Resents
lmputation That Brokers Coun-
tenance Any Fraud-De-
plores the Shortage
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Feb. Ill regard
that question as an insult to me and to
every member of the cotton exchange" >"
declared Vice President Arthur r.
Marsh of the New York cotton eX
change at todays hearing before the
house committee on agriculture, on the
anti-option bill.
Representative Simms of Tennessee
had asked Mr.. Marsh if there were any
way of eliminating transactions that
did not contemplate actual delivery,
causing, in effect. business in contra
ventiOn of regular rules of the ex-
change.
Mr.. Marsh emphatically resented any
imputation that the members of the
exchange countenanced fraud or cheat
ing.
Mr.. Simms explained that what he
meant was whether the business could
gambling, mot that Mr.. Marsh or any
other members are consciously guilty
of such practices
Il am against all iniquity,' declared
Mr.. Marsh. Il pronounce all under
takings entered into by any human
being with intent Of not fulfilling that
which he undertakes to do as iniqui-
cles is that an honorable man, holding
an honorable position in the business
community, is neither fraud nor a
cheat"
Mr.. Marsh described the membership
and functions of the exchange and
admitted that there were some specu-
lative transactions.
He insisted that the present system
of transaction amounted to actual de-
livery, but declined to furnish any
details of his own business to show
just how much actual delivery was
performed under his contracts
"The world is not producing enough
cotton for it's needs" he declared.
''This year it is producing 100000 to
3,5OO,OOO bales less than it consumed
last year. There has never been a
time in the history of the cotton indus
try when there has been more un-
easiness regarding the price of cotton
than now. This will continue until the
world produces enough for its needs.
or the needs are brought down to the
production"
Mr.. Marsh characterized the Scott
bill to regulate cotton exchange trans
actions as futile and unconstitutional.

FEAR DESPONDENT MAN
HAS ENDED HIS LIFE
Friends of Louis BotWn Ask Police
Department to Aid Them in
Their Search

The police department was notified
last night to look out for Louis Botwin,
former proprietor of the Vienna Clean
ing and Dyeing house, 1853 North
Vignes street, who has been missing
from his place of business since Feb
ruary 6. Botwin was respondent .be-
cause of losses sustained in gambling
and business reverses, and six weeks
ago is said to have attempted suicide
by inhaling gas.
The attempt was made in the rear
of his cleaning house, and friends, de-
tecting the odor of gas, broke in the
room in time to prevent BotWin from
accomplishing his purpose.
He is a victim of epileptic fits and
generally carried considerable money
with him, which leads his friends to
believe he was either a victim of foul
play or was successful in ending his
life
Botwin is described as 36 years old,
five feet two inches tall, weighing
about 1870 pounds. He wore a mus
tache and small goatee, and has curly
blond hair. When last seen he was
dressed in a neat black checkered suit.
He is a Prussian.

ARREST 2 FOR
SLAVE TRAFFIC
FEDERAL OFFICIALS AT WORK
IN LOS ANGELES
Authorities Claim to Have Positive
Evidence That Joseph Baet-
mans Imported Women
from Belgium

What is believed to be the initial
movement to rid Los Angeles of per-
sons suspected of being identified with
the white slave traffic resulted last
night in the arrests of Joseph Baet-
mans. proprietor of the Brabant hotel,
81 Central avenue, and Mathilde
Famo, who, according to the police,
has posed as the wife of Baetmans.
Although booked on a charge of suspi-
cion, the prisoners were taken to the
county jail and bail fixed at $4,000 in
each case.
The arrests were brought about as
the result of warrants issued at Wash
ington. D. c., and given to ]. c. Mar
DIM, immigration inspector of Los An
geles. The prisoners were taken in
custody by Patrolmen BoWe and
Browning.
owing to the fact that several other
warrants are in the possession of the
immigration inspectors, the latter were
reticent in giving full particulars OF
the case. Chief Inspector A. c. Ridge
way admitted that a sweeping move
ment in every city of the United States
was under way to prevent the contin-
uance of the system of importing wom-
en- for immoral purposes. He added
that foreign governments were acting
in conjunction with the United States
authorities and that 1t was only mat
ter of time before the pernicious sys-
tenn was broken up and the offenders
imprisoned or deported.
In the case of Baetmans, it Is al
legged that he has been engaged in the
business for several years, and the
federal authorities say they are in
possession of data showing that he
has made several journeys to Belgium
returning each time with a woman
who passed as his wife.
1t is not believed Baetmans worked
solely for his own interests, but acted
as agent for number of "higher ups
who reap the real financial harvest BY
the Illegal methods.
The federal authorities are holding
Baetmans and the Famo woman away
from all interviewers and expect t.
make other arrests for the same offensC
in the next few days. 1t is not though
all the women alleged to have beer
brought to the United States from Bel
gium by Baetmans came to Lo:
Angeles.

Associated Press!

LONDON, Feb. 11.-Co-operatlon III
certain directions between the Amerl-
can and British Antarctic expeditions
was suggested in correspondence OF
Commander Peary and capt. Robert +.
Scott, given out here tonight.
Writing under date of January Il,
Commander Peary said: 4 believe with
YOU that it would add to the interest
and value of both expeditions IL the Two
branches of Anglo-Saxons were strlV-
ing simultaneously from opposite points
of the Antarctic periphery for a share
of the glory and scientific information
awaiting the fortunate workers in that
region ..
Replying on February Capt. Scott
who is to head the British expedition
said he was eagerly anticipating Com
mander Pearys visit to London, add
ing: e. 49,
most experienced polar traveller"
Col. scotts Ideas
with reference to the American eX-
pedition Capt. Scott said:
II think it would be advisable that
there should be cooperation between
the expeditions in the matter of me-
teorology and magnetism. A program
might be drawn up to provide for SIM
infamous observations"
In an interview with the Associated
Press concerning the proposed Ameri-
can Antarctic expedition Capt. Scott
said:
''The American project was no sur
prise to me, as 1 had been correspond
ing with Commander Peary for some
time. NO step was taken by him until
he consulted me and had received the
assurance that / heartily welcomed
American cooperation. The rivalry
between the British and American ex-
petitions will be entirely friendly but
naturally each will be keen that men Of
its own nationality shall be first to
reach the pole.
"The Americans will have the longer
route, but possibly an easier one, as
there are indications of a gradual slope
from Weddell sea to the pole Their
main difficulty will be to find a suitable
wintering spot on Contes land"

URGES AMBASSADORS TO
PROMOTE FOREIGN TRADE
Secretary of State Knox Wants United
States representatives. Abroad
to Foster Commerce Relations

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE pro-
motion of commercial relations be-
tween this country and with those with
which it has diplomatic intercourse is
sought by Secretary of State Knox.
Mr. Knox will soon transmit to repre-
sentatives of the United States in other
countries letter acquainting them
with his wishes.
The secretary, It is said, is not dis
posed to place diplomacy upon a plane
so elevated that a telescope would be
necessary for those occupying it to
descry a business opportunity far be-
low. He considers it an important
function of ambassadors, ministers and
consuls to keep in touch, in a measure,
with the foreign trade, and do all with
in their power to advance the CONNER
cial interests of the United States.
Foreign fields for American products
are desired by the secretary. He wants
American representatives to use their
best endeavors in opening this field.

Hanson Warns Against CataIpa

Sioux Falls-Hon. n. f. Hanson,
secretary of the State Horticultural
Society has recently given expression
to the planting Of Catalpa trees by
farmers in this state and his remarks
are worthy of great publicity and at
tention. Mr.. Hanson says: 1T appears
that certain agents from outside the
state are now selling large numbers
of Hardy Catalpa' trees. The Hardy
Catalpa' is a beautiful tree of raCid
growth, native of southeastern Illinois
and Indiana to Louisiana and Missies-
ippi. In solthern Iowa, Kansas and
other southern states the timber IS
found to be exceedingly durable for
fence posts, but the southern origin
of the catalpa does not fit it for Da-
kota prairies and it should not be
planted anywhere in South Da'ota
with the expectation Of good results
as a timber tree. 1t has been tried In
many places in the state but the gen.
eral experience is very u~nfavorable.
For purely ornamental purposes, a
tree or two in a place where II may
come up in bush form when killed to
! the ground, will not be amiss; but for
timber or for fence posts the South
Dakota farmer will save money by
burning the catalpa trees before he
plants them"
