FORT WILLING To
BUY IN ATLANTA

10 d visiting committee from the
Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, Colo
mel Griffith and Captain Bankhead,
of the Seventeenth Regiment at Fort
Mcpherson, explained Thursday that
the apparent discrimination against
Atlanta merchants in the purchase OF
supplies for the post was a matter
not within their discretion.
Colonel Griffith also stated that in
his report of the matter, to he mailed
Just before boarding the train for the
Mexican line, he had recommended
that the former latitude be given the
post quartermaster in the purchase OF
all supplies,
W. II. Leahy. statistical secretary
of the Chamber and Lynn Fort
chairman of the special committee
made the call at the fort.
Our visit was eminently satls1ac :

ont that there was not the least in
tention to discriminate against the
Atlanta merchants. 1t seems a re-
Gently introduced regulation PROVIDES
that al supplies, except perishapl
articles, shall be purchased by the
department at Governor Island; New

Fort Mcpherson is situated.
This left the quartermasters de-
partment at the post without any
discretion in the matter. Month by

in to Governors Island, and IL the
Atlanta merchants wanted to bid on
any of the supplies their bids and
samples would have to be sent to the
department there-a circumstance
practically prohibitive of trade.
1--WE were particularly glad to note
the cordiallty with which Colonel
Griffith assured us that his report
going forward to-day, would contain
the recommendation that the former
plan be reinstated and that the post
here be permitted to buy its supplies

WAR On COTTON
EXCHANGE LED
BY SEN. SM| TIL
Action Demanded on Grading
Measure to Protect Grower
and Mill Man.

WASHINGTON, March 49, -
Charging that the New York Cot
ton Exchange is guilty of manipulai.
ing the price of cotton to the injury
of both cotton producer and cotton
goods manufacturers, Senators Hokc
smith Oyerman and Ellison ID. Smith
to-day united in a demand in the
senate that speedy action be taken to
pass the bill fixing standards Of cot
ton on exchanges.
Senator Hoke Smith quoted prlccs
on Julys cotton showing that the eX-
change quotations are rs points low
er on July cotton than on March cot
ton. despite the fact that July cot
ton is worth more Senator Overman
recited similar facts, and said that
the sale Of middling cotton on the
New York exchange vas q farce,
They cant sell it to you there be-
cause they have not got it," said Sen
ator Overman. "They traded in TO-
100000 bales last year when, accord
ing to the last report, they actually
had 1854 bales of middling cotton on
hand"
Senator Ellison u. Smith gave no.
tice that he will eau upon the bill to-
morrow, after declaring that imme-
date executive action is necessary in
order to protect the unsold proper
ton of the 1913 crop and the crop OF
cotton to be raised this year.
