HOUSE PASSES LEVER BILL
INTENDED TO REGULATE PRAc-
TlcES OF NEW YORK
EXCHANGE.
Author Claims the Bill Will Save
Southern Cotton Growers Mil
lions Of Dollars.

Washington.-The house substituted
the Lever bill for regulation Of cot
ton exchanges through prohibitive tax
es for the senate measure proposing
regulation by means Of prohibiting the
use Of the mails and the telegraph
for so-called gambling transactions.
The house put the bill through un-
der suspension of the rules by a vote
Of "a to 81, and sent 1t back to the
senate. II the senate fails to agree
to the substitute, the differences will
be taken up in conference. Senator
Smith, author of the senate bill, is now
campaigning in South Carolina, and
consideration of the substitute may be
delayed until his return. though Sena-
tor Smith Of Georgia or some other
Southern senator may call 1t up in the
meantime.
Both the senate and house measures
aim to regulate alleged evil practices
on the cotton exchanges which the cot
ton producers contend keep down the
price Of cotton. The senate bill through
the postoffice department and the in
terstate commerce commissions ju-
risdiction over the telegraph would
prohibit the transmission of quotations
and lists of sales OF cotton that did
not comply with the requirements as
to Standardization prescribed In the
bill. Both bills would regulate, though
they would not prohibit, transactions
in futures.
