Washington. d. c., June 1f.-Attor-

ing on the indictments returned to-day
by the New York special Federal grand
Jury against James A. Patten, Morris
II. Rothschild, b. B. IIayne. William p
Brown. Eugene e. Scales, Sidney j.
Harmon and Robert NJ. Thompson.
growing out of the so-called cotton
pool" said that the investigation which
was held had satisfied the grand jury
of the existence of the combination
and of its questionable characteristics
Z In regard to the indictments, the fol-
lowing statement was given out to-
night by The Department of Justice:
''These indictments are the result of
an investigation commenced by the De-
partment OF Justice some time since,
4 based upon information that the per-
sons indicted. with others, had, in the
early part of the year. formed com
bination for the purpose of cornering
the entire remaining supply of raw
cotton of the crop of 1909 and to hold
a substantial portion of the same under
agreement not to make tenders in cer-
tain markets prior to about November
J. 1910. thus creating an artificial short
age, in addition TO crop shortage, in
the supply available for the spinners
and making it possible to require them
20 purchase thereafter at an arbitrary
price fixed by the pool.
AT the same time agreements wer
said to have been entered into between
representatives OF the pool and a mum

Der of spinners whereby the latter
agreed to join the conspiracy to thu
extent of purchases of several thou
sand bales of cotton to be removed
from the market. Pursuant to this
agreement the pool acquired about
$4,000 bales OF raw cotton for de-
livery In May, which, with a large
amount already on hand, was to be
lifted out of the three principal mar
kets of the world. This complete con-
troll of the May market, with the fur
Their purchase Of several hundred thou
sand bales of the remaining supply
for delivery in July and August was
intended TO complete the monopoly
of the remainder of the crop.
"As the facts We're presented to the
department. this appeared to be a
typical instance of a combination for
the purpose of forstalling the market
securing the entire visible supply of a
raw comm odity. during a period OF
months and securing the power to die.
tate the price to the consumer.
And as bearing upon the larger
question to which so much public at
tention has been directed, of the high
| cost of living, was considered by the
department as requiring thorough in
vestigation.
'"rhis investigation has resulted in
satisfying the grand jury of the eN-
istence of the combination and of Its
criminal characteristics and the in
| dictments have followed.
ut is not to be understood that this
prosecution involves any question a:
to the propriety of methods of deal

PRESIDENT WILL WAIT
Appointment to Supreme Dench Not
! pr nj.


Washington, June 17.-The admins
tration does not expect anyimmediate
word from Justice Moody, of the SUI
preme Court. who. in bills pending in
Congress, is given five months in which
he may retire, That limit OF time was
made in the hope and possibility that
the Justice would not find Unnecessary
to give UP, hut would recover sutti-
GENTLY to return to duty by the be-
ginning Of the next term of court.
The realization of the fact that Con-
gress had made provision for him, II
was hoped, might assist him in get
ting better Even II he did not I'M
prove the Justice would have the sat.
lsfaction of knowing that he would
be provided for in his continued III
health.
Such being the case. the President
1t was said had not the ren1otest idea
