OLD OPERATORS
ARE WA|PSAWED
Session of Stock Market Is One
of the Widest in
Years.

New Orleans August ito days session
In the cotton market was one of the widest
in recent wears. Extremely wide bulges
bewildered SPECTATORS nursing losses in
their wake In the early session the scalp
ing element counted immense profits on the
long side. but in the afternoon session these
profits were replaced by losses At the
highest OF the day the trading months were
80 to 10 points over yesterdays close. 81
a bale up. at the lowest prices II &c
- points under yesterdays last quotations
From the highest the lowest there
a drop OF IS TO So points. The market closed
at the lowest.
According TO the gossip OF the market the
Wild changes were entirely due to the mani
tactics OF n new and powerful clique jus,
entering the market. This clique bough:
heavily IN the early hours and kept shorts
on the run to cover When this ammunl-
ton about exhausted and the rnss
were buying heavily for turn on the long
side the clique suddenly commenced 10 sell!
and so heavy were the offerings that prices
crum6lcd away. In the morning the tone
was firm in the afternoon IL was weak.
\, the close OF the day some OF the old
and experienced operators were willing
TO acknowledge that they had been whip
sawed" in the most thorough fashion.
IL is generally believed thai the fact that
the Liverpool market will be closed to-mor-
row and Monday had much to do with the
manipulation. Tie refusal OF the New York
Cotton Exchange to close those days is
now regarded as significant.

POLICE PRACTICE
IS CROWNED upon
Senate Committee Condemns
Process of Legal Kidnapping"
as in Mcnamara Case.

washington. August 4.-The process
OF legal kidnapping" as in the labor
cases of Meyer. Haywood and McNa-
mara was condemned by the Senate
seiect committee appointed to investi-
gate the third degree methods of the
police authorities of the United States
In report which was presented to
the Senate to-day by Senator Borah
on behalf OF the committee.
The committee said the practice of
hurrying accused men from one State
to another without giving them an
opportunity to be heard should be pre-
vented by prohibiting extradition I'M
til after the lapse of certain number
of days, or by some other effective
plan.
The only other recommendation was
the cessation of fury shadowing" by
the secret service men.
The condemnation of Jury shadow
ing" was based upon the committed s
discovery that in important cases the
Department of Justice authorized the
surveillance of jurymen to prevent
their being tempered with The com
mittee in this final report condemned
the practice of the government even
though 1t be by the defense. because
1t is liable to great abuse"
The committees comment on irregu-
lar extraditions was evidently based
on the course pursued in removing
Meyer and Haywood from Colorado ~
Idaho on the charge of numbering Gov
ernor Steunenberg. and in getting Nc
Namara from Indiana on the charge of
destroying the Los Angeles Times
building. but neither instance is
specifically mentioned.
The report was signed by all tho
members of the committee. Senator
Borah. who presented 1t, was counsel
for the prosecution in the Meyer Hay
wood Pettibone cases in Idaho. who
were kidnapped" in Colorado and
taken to Idaho for trial on the charge
of numbering Governor Steunenberg.

Washington. D. c.. August 4-Polit-
ical Washington is on edge. With m
tie doubt that President Taft neans
to swing the big stick during the next
day or two and put a quictus to the
hopes of thA Democrats in Congress to
pass any OF Its revision bills. every
one is wondering when the blow Will
fall. That such action will be taken
there seems now to be not the least
doubt. In fact, since the cotton bill
has passed the House and will reacff
the Senate during the next day or two.
1t may be that the President will kill
both this bill and the wool bill at one
blow, or he may veto the wool bill be-
fore the Senate has time to act on
the cotton schedule, which would leave
the latter proposition to suffer its own
fate of strangula alton.
While a day or two ago Chairman
Underwood, of the Ways and Means
Committee Of the House. said that the
Democrats expected to revise the steel,
iron and sugar schedules. circum-
stances have since come about which
make II certain that no attempt to
revise these schedules will he under

esting speculation concerning the next

every important schedule in the pres

and one items, will be completely
overhauled. In addition to this the
long session will be replete with local
bills of an interesting kind. Measures
for the erection of new Federal build
ings. for the Improvement of rivers
and harbors and many other local
matters will come up for consideration
and action. There are already more
than $4,000 bills on the calendar which
will be carried over from this session.
Altogether the next session bids fair
to be one OF the most important and
interesting in the country's history.
The assurance that James K Varda-
man is coming to the Senate of the

Inc House committee of inquiry as the

Mr.. Schwab pictured the Steel Cor
poration as a legal organization. not
formed to curtail output, restrict COM
petition or maintain prices. but to
develop the steel industry of Ameri-
ca.
The witness denied that the recent
BRUSSELS conference OF the steel manu-
facturers of the world from which he
returned recently had anything to do
with the fixing OF prices.
Il want to assure you" he said,
that at no time was the question OF

Yes, but Germany can now trans
port 10 our Pacific coast for less than
we can ship from Pittsburg to the

II do not want to argue the tariff
he continued, but I cannot for the
life OF me see any disadvantage to
America from liberal protection. /,
seems TO me to be mistake TO have
the tariff so low that a foreign COM
petitor can even reach our Pacific

Germany France and Austria or Italy"
You could make rails for less than

"Oh. yes" was Mr.. Schwab's reply.

DarrOw of Legal Ethics.

The spot light of truth is being
turned full upon the labor situa
ton in some parts of the United
States. 1t is most fortunate since
the Mcnamara brothers were gull
ty that they admitted their guilt.
Honest labor cannot now feel they
were being prosecuted by capital,
and that is what many would have
believed had they been convicted
while denying their guilt. On the
other hand, had they been acquitt-
ed, the inner circle would have been
encouraged in it's course of crime
The relation of Clarence S. Dar-
row. the attorney for these two
self-confessed criminals, should be
noted and Mr. Darrow should be
made to stand before the labor worI
in his true light. In statement
to the press Darrow said II never
had full confession from Jas B.
Mcnamara, but / have known the
facts for a good many months We
have known what the state had
against us for a long time" And tha
is the man who wrought the ap-
peal to the honest and law-abiding
laborers of the entire country. to
stand by criminals whose guilt he
knew. His passionate cry for aid
started a golden stream and the
honest toilers of this country took
from their earnings the 100000
for the defense of two murderers
Clarence Darrow now demands three
fourths of this amount for his own
fee. He is the same Clarence Oar

invasion of the State of Idaho to
rescue Meyer. Haywood and Petit

To him is largely due the miscar-

dence that the labor world once re-
posed in him has vanished Mas
