evidence to the Grand Jury i'm support
of tn complaints against the officers
and directors and certain members Of
the American Cotton Exchange. The
Grand Jury inquiry will continue to-day
and Mr.. Schneider said he did not think
presentation of evidence would be com
pleted before next Monday afternoon.
Mr.. Schneider had three witnesses In
readiness. but only ono was used. IL
was understood the witnesses were
Samuel Landecker. William Il. Wilson
and James Watson. formerly members
OF the American Cotton Exchange. All
testified before Chief Magistrate Will
lam McAdoo at the John Doc innqnuiry
into the exchanges affaies.
The testimony Of all three before the
John Doe inquiry was virtually identi-
call and consisted of the allegation that
the great majority of the membersr Of
the exchange actually made no tranaac-
tions for their customers, but puckcted
their orders by crossing trades with
each other. The trade crossing transac-
tion was described as calling the close
OF deal with fingers crossed. The
witnesses also named members Of the
exchange who. they said, followed that
practice These members later were
mentioned in Magistrate McAdoo's pre-
sentiment as among those against whom
complaints should be made before the
Grand Jury.

"RuIcs Not Ambiguous"

Regarding the suspensions, Mr.. Crom-
well issued the following:
"The governors, through this de-
cision, have given token of their de-
termination that there shall be no con-
nection between Stock Exchange firms
and outside brokers making n practice
of selling their customers stocks. For
many years there has been in effect a
resolution Of the governing committee
providing that every member OF the cx-
change is required 10 use diligence to
learn the essential facts relating TO
every account carried in his office.
"The resolution on which these charges
were based is in no way ambiguous. II
provides that a member of the New York
Stock Exchange shall not do this busi-
ness. and it leaves the responsibility for
finding out the character of his client
entirely in his hands. There will be no
relaxing of the scrutiny Of the officials
of the exchange in this matter and II
behooves the members TO guard them
selves accordingly"
