Department of Justice Issues
Statement With Regard to
Investigation of Cotton Pools
for Benefit of Cotton Ex-
changes of Country.
NOT TO ATTACK EXCHANGES
Brokers Say 1t Is Plan of Govern
ment to Put Cotton Exchange Out
of Business, and That Movement Is
Political Pure and Simple.
[uN1rnp rnnss rnAspp wrnr.1

Washington, April .27.-The de-
partment of justice issued the fol-
lowing announcement today:
The action of the government in
instituting the New York investiga-
ton of the alleged cotton pool,
should not be construed as a legiti-
mate attack on the operations of any
cotton or produce exchanges
throughout the country.
The proceedings, being before
the grand jury, cannot be discussed
now"
The federal grand jury at New
York has been investigating charges
against the so-called cotton pool and
dozens of witnesses have been exam
ined by the government attorneys.
Books and papers of investors have
been examined and there have been
rumors that the grand jury will call
the directors of the cotton exchange
There was a general feeling on
the cotton exchange that while the
witnesses have been called "to testi-
fly in the inquiry OF the government
against William P. Brown, f. B..
Hayne, of New Orleans, James A.
Patten, of Chicago, and Eugene p.
Scales of Texas, on a charge of "al-
legged conspiracy to advance the
price of cotton futures in violation
of the law" the real plan of the
government is to put the cotton ex-
change out of business.
1t has been charged by brokers
that the present action of the gov
ernment is political, pure and sim
pie; that the cotton inquiry is to be
made the butt because It lies In the
south.
A prominent broker said:
THE administration in Washing
ton is republican, the south is demo-
cratic. There has been much said
lately against the high cost of living
but the grain and -four corner has
been immune from legal inyestiga-
tiOns.
"The middle West where the
grain and flour inquiry is strongest.
is republican. So the hands of the
administration are tied there"
It is believed that the issuance of
the statement by the department of
Justice will allay the alarm Of the
members of the cotton and produce
exchanges.

"HIGHER UPs"-LAND SCAN
DAL GROWING.

Boise, Idaho, April 27.-Charges
and counter-charges are passing be-
tween members of the State Land
Board and other state officials as a
result of disclosures following the
resignation of M. /. Church, register
of the land board. Church is now en-
route to Boise from Couer d'Alene,
where he has been since his resigna-
tion was rendered, and declares that
Me proposes to show that he is being
made a scapegoat while higher
ups" are the real guilty ones. He
has asked Governor Brady to hold up
his resignation, pending further de-
velopment.
Governor Brady has announced
that no special session of the legis-
lature will be called, but he will rec
ommend an investigation of the whole
affair by the next legislature, If he is
still governor. The terms of mem
bers of the land board will have ex-
pired by that time.
The latest development Is the dis
covery that anidaVits of appraise-
ment of lands purchased by the Pay
cite Lumber Company from the state
are missing from the fles. Norman
Belcher, former state land selector,
charges that he was instructed by
Acknowledgement McDougal, in the
presence OF Secretary Of State Lans-
don, both members of the land board
to appraise 9O6O acres OF land de-
sired by the Payette company to $40
an acre, and that he did SO without
seeing the land.
Both McDougal and Lansdon deny
the charge.

Seattle, Wash, April 27.-The
local Greek colony is aroused today
over the killing of Louis Zahariadis,
owner of the Main Cafe. A mass
meeting of the Greeks of the city has
been called for tonight to offer a re-
ward for the arrest OF George
Pahilis, charged with the crime.
Nursing an old grudge, Pahilis,
former partner in the cafe, entered
the restaurant last night, and, ac-
cording to witnesses, emptied the
magazines of two revolvers at
Zahariadis, killing him instantly.
The killing was evidently careful
ly planned. Last October Pahilis
and the dead man quarreled and
broke up their partnership. Phailis
went to Spokane. Three weeks ago
he returned, and since then he has
been a frequent visitor at the restau-
rant.

Lamb and Taggart are both can
didates for senator. Lamb is back
ing Marshall's proposition that the
convention choose a candidate. Tag
gart is fighting it, but has an
nounced that he will go before the
convention for endorsement, If the
plan is adopted.
Marshall and his forces believe
this will be the opening skirmish. 1t
has been agreed that the report of
the committee on rules and order of
business shall not be presented until
Marshall takes charge as temporary
chairman, instead of being present
ed when State Chairman Stokes Jack
son takes the chair to call the con-
vention to order. Taggart delegates
are incensed at this change in the
regular order of procedure.
Senator Shively has given no indi-
cation of his attitude on the sena-
torship proposition, other than that
he favors a compromise, if one can
be brought about.

Two Butte Boys Electrocutod.

Butte, Mont, April 27.-while
swinging at the end of section of
baling wire which had been thrown
over heavy power line belonging to
the Rarus mine, last night, Frank
Barry, 1S years old, was electroeut-
ed. His companion, Perry Honey
church, aged IS, attempted to rescue
him, and he, too, was killed by the
current when he placed his hands on
the PROSTATE form of the Barry boy,
Before three other youths could at
tempt to drag the bodies Of their
electrocuted playmates away from
the deadly wire, several miners ran
to the scene, and saved them from a
similar fate.
The bodies of the dead boys were
fearfully burned, the power wire car
rying 2400 volts.
