NEW ORLEANS COTTON MEN ARE
 NOT BOUND BY LIVERPOOL PLAN
Chairman Weer Is Confident That Objections of Southern In terests Will Win Out Yet and Reerates Statement That
 New Orleans Bankers Will Ignore Central Bureau

New Orleans, September 2.-New Or leans cotton exporters and bankers, through Chairman Sol Wexler, of the cot ton exchanges special committee on bills of lading, made 1t plain in a statement today that they were not bound to ac- cept the notifications made in the cen tral bureau validation scheme at meet ing of the committee of the American Bankers association held yesterday in New York city.
 MT. Charles Godchaux, who represent ed the New Orleans cotton exchange and the local clearing house, attended this meeting, said Mir Wexler, "and tele- graphed me today that at this meeting he distinctly stated that he was not in a position to bind the people he repre- sented but would submit any modified tions to them for consideration.
 "The impression was gained at this meeting that if the New York bankers had not originally given some sanction to the plan, they would now be disposed to turn down the entire proposition, but they seem to think that it Is incumbent upon them to assist MT. Haight, who rep resents Liverpool interests, in formulat- ing something practical, if it can be done. It would appear as if the whole matter
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-09-03

will die out, as Is but natural with any plan not based upon some principle and found to be thoroughly practical by the men engaged in the particular line of business.
 As I have previously stated, if apv shipper of cotton desires to have CO of his documents sent to the centr AZ reau. and if his credit is so poor Q ,o3 cannot negotiate his bills witho Sng them validated, there can ! o. good reason why a railroad shos oT S com ply with his request, but F N ,oos should confine themselves to ip< X $S cases
 Although the local ss' hd the rail- roads are ignoring ; s',ntral Bureau cotton bills validath 4n, which went into effect in New A K yesterday. the Leyland and Harrison steamship lines op- erating out of this port to Europe, es- tablshed the new system and in future will abide by the requirements of the Liverpool bills of lading committee. Du- plieates of all bills of lading for cotton issued by these lines are sent to the central bureau.
 Chairman Sol Wexler of the New Dr. leans exchange bills of lading committee, is still confident that the southern in- terests will win out in their objections in the new plan and reiterates previous statement that local bankers and ex- porters will Ignore the central bureau and continue to do so.

LABOR COMMISSION VERY LONG LIVED Business of Settling Up England's Strike Pro-
 gressing Slowly

London, September 2-The commission appointed by the government August 22 to inquire into the trouble between the railroads of Great Britain and their em- ployes. which led to the recent strike, has already been in session for one week and gives promise of being as long lived as some of its predecessors.
 The railroads are represented on the commission by Sir Thomas Ellis, secre- tary of tho Mine owners association, and Sir Charles Ball, chancellor of the Uni- versity of Birmingham, while the repre- sentatives of the men are Arthur Tender son, labor member of parliament for the Barnard Castle division of Durham, and John Burnett, chief labor correspondent of the board of trade. Sir David Harrell, former under secretary for Ireland. is chairman of the commission.
 Tho commission is taking the evidence of the mems representatives first, and the whole week did not suffice to exhaust the flow of information sought to be inn parted by only four out of host of of fcals from the different unions to be examined
 There was not a good word to be said of the board s scheme established by the chancellor of the exchequer, Mir Lloyd George, in 1907. The general trend of sug- gestion favored board for each railroad made up of an equal number of represen- tatives of the men and the company with a national board on which the companies and the mems unions are equally repre- sented as kind of court of appeal.
 The witnesses objected to the appoint nlent of an arbitrator as chairman of these boards, holding that If the men could not settle a dispute themselves, they could not be bound by the casting of Q vote by such arbitrator if the terms were unacceptable.
 The only point on which there was com- plete unanimity between the four wit nesses was the demand for recognition of the trades unions as the best and only methods of bringing about peace on tho railroads. The natural claim of the eS- ecutfves was that the unions would be in better position to enforce an award if they were concerned in it. and they agreed that strike pay should not be granted to men coming out against the terms which had been accepted by their union.
