Sam Joriss Opened Debate.
8am D. Jones, president of the cham
ber of commerce, opened with the
statement that the directors of the
chamber met on July 3, heard both
aides and passed resolutions endors
ing the movement to do away with
burketahops.
“I hope the legislature of Georgia
will lake such high stand In this mat
ter that there will be no question as
to Its meaning and purpose.
"Every jrensacilon of this character
begins or ends In a gamble. In many
Instance It begins with a gamble and
ends with one.
"I do not think the legislature can
afford lo license any bualness that Is
a gamble. Whether It la a big bucket
or a little bucket the reault le the
same. Anything that Is morally
wrong cannot be politically right.
"If business Interests are cut up by
thla law business will find other chan
nels In right Itself.
"I buy pig Iron, but there la no ex
change nr bucket shop where I do nr
van deal. One year 1 sold stoves when
Iron was nt 37, and II went to |1(, but
1 was protected by a clause In my
contract.
I do not believe the life of cotton
manufacturing deponda upon this
business. It can adjust Itself easily.
Gentlemen, get out of this valley you
are now In.
“We nre dodging between n bucket-
shop and a warehouse, a right end
wrong. Go high enough and you will
eee the right and do It."
Orr Favors Boykin Bill. _
J. K. Orr, president of the Atlanta
Credit Men's Association, spoke next
•Today almost universally tha credit
man Is the ultra-conservative man In
his business. When I see them
pouse any cause ,1 am satisfied that It
hears a close relation to the general
good.
"Tho credit man lo the barometer of
business. When they have been Im
pressed with the necessity for legisla
tion on this subject 1 am almost willing
to endorse It- without Investigation.
"In recent yenra they have been
hampered by report* of holding

of ensea thnt those *o reporting are
holding for specnlnllv* purpose*.
"Speculation of any kind Is Injury
to the credit of any one engaged In It.
There Is it fever of speculation over
the country. Even In small towns
there are exchanges.
Hurts All Business.
"The credit men are Interested be
cause this business directly affects the
enttro business world. If Ihc cotton
mill men were going to ho seriously
hurt by this bill you would seo this
hall crowded with them."
Ho said he had heard from many
cotton men and practlrally all favored

Mr. Akers Testifies.
J. S. Akers, of Inman. Akera & In
man, spoke next.
I am her* almply aa a witness. I
am neither for or against It. 1 am us
much opposed to speculation as any
member on thle committee. It hurts
our business. . .
"I must say In Justice, however, that
colon exchanges do serve certain
legitimate transactions. We have our
agents selling cotton now for future
delivery. If they eell nt certain prices

"I nl once wire to 'cover on this

contract, and then sell out at euch and
such a figure."
He explained In detail th* method of
dealing In cotton by actual contracts.
Would Not Hurt Him.
Aaked In wrhat way the bill would
affect hla buslnraa he said he did not
know that It would at all. He said It
would he more convenient for hlin to
have the exchanges here lo deal
through.
"Through Ihe houses an order can
be executed In about 3 minutes. By

Htdglng Is necessary lo my business.'
He said he Inclined to Ihe belief
that exchanges made for a belter
price In cotton, and tended to enhanci
values.
"Doesn't Ihe country loo* more on
these speculations than It makes?"
asked Senator Reid.
"I am afraid It does, though I havi
no direct Information on it."
Mr. Akers wee subjected to a run
ning lire of queetlone from Saab
Wright, Mr. Anderson and member*
the commit**.
Mr. Boykin asked him If Ihe Ander
son substitute would stop illegitimate
speculation In cotton.
"No, 1 do not think to/’ was tha rs
ply.
Harvis Jordan 8peaks.
Harvle Jordan, president of the
Southern Cotton Association, began
by staling that the association had
been urging legislation to prevent Cot
ion speculation.
"Mr. Boykin's hill prevents specula
tbih In any commodity; Mr. Anacreon’
simply seeks to stop bucket shops.
"There Is a moral question Involved,
When the state reaches the condition
to consider from a cold-blooded bust
ness way. It Is time to amend the con
stllutlon.
"In debating the question on the floor
Mr. Anderson made certain charges
against Ihe Southern Cotton Assocla
tlon. He admits that It wax done
defeat the Boykin bill. That ahould
be argument enough to puss it.
"I never saw a man work as hard
to worm out of another something to
bolster up a had cause as Mr. Ander-
son did In questioning Mr. Akera.
"The business of dealing In cotton
futures Is'growing enormously In this
country, particularly among farmers.
They nr* being Induced lo sell their
spots and buy futures and put up the
margins. Nine-tenths of the people
who deal with these places lose.
"I ask you In my official capacity
lo pass this bill and let Georgia go
before the country leading In thla
great moral question. If you do It, 1
give you my word that within two
years nearly every Southern state will
have followed.
The contention we make is that
breaking up Iheee concerns will not
seriously Interfere with business In
Georgia"
Savannah Man’* Tsstlmony,
Murray Stewart, an exporter from
Savannah, aald that If the source of
Information furnished by the wire
house wns taken away, It would aerl
ously Interfere with cotton dealers.
"You don't mean to say that these
wlro houses are here simply to furnish
Information?" asked Heab Wright.
"No, they nre here for business.'
"There would bo no profit to the
houses without speculation?"
"Not altogether. They do a certain
legitimate business.”
He said he did not agree altogether
with Mr. Akers that these houses de
pended absolutely on speculation.
Mr. Anderson asked him if wire
houses could not survive In a place
where ft million and a miarter bales
wore handled, aa In Savannah, by le
gitimate business. Tho reply was In
the affirmative.
He said he thought the farmer would
get leas for hla cotton by doing away
with futures.
“8#sma a Good Buslnsst."
R. A. Crawford, another cotton ex
porter from Savannah, gava testimony
along the line of Mr. Stewart.

Mr. Crawford laughed, but did not

stnto would carry tho bualness

"Tell nte how It Is that the cotton
exchange shows 600,000,00(1 bales
nought and aold on sn actual crop of
10 000,000 bales?" asked Sesb Wright.
Evidently they overloaded," was the
reply.
Mr. Anderson's Argument.
Mr. Anderson began his argument for
Inc substitute by reading n letter from
H. C. Arnold, a large planter and cot-
'°t>. dealer, of Newnan. In whlrh he
said lhat Ihc closing of legitimate ex-
ncs"* M would serlouily hurt hla busl-
A telegram from Henry Hull,
prominent Savnnnah merchant, pro
testing against (Manage of the Boykin
mil, was also read.
Mr. Anderson said that so far as he
could ascertain there were only four
legitimate exchanges In Atlanln. and
WW "are A Leland. Hubbard
Hrou., Edmond A Charles Randolph and
Glbert A flay.
•The lioykln bill la too radical. -Le*
gltlinatn line* of business ahould not
be Interfered with. Senator Wheatley’s
substitute read hero goes further than
either of the other two, and draws a
very dear dlntlm-tlon between loglti-
mate exchanges and bucket shop*.
•'Thin bill will put the fanner and
the turpentine dealer back fifteen years
and place both ut u fearful disadvan
tage."
His argument wns strong and re
ceived the closest attention.
"8ubstituts No Good."
Sea burn Wright closed the argument
by advocating the Boykin bill. He said
he came over to do so at the request
of the author.
‘‘The bill Introduced here by
friend MWheatley) has been hawked
about every Icglidature In the country.
It stops nothing. It stops little gam
bling and legltlmntlxe* big gambling."
He said that ihe Boykin bill wns
modeled after the North Carolina law,
and that It had stopped gambling there
and hurt no mill*.
A letter from Governor Glenn to Mr.
Boykin said that It had stopped specu
lation and had not hurt legitimate cot
ton business. The people favored the
bill.
"it Is all marginal gambling. These
men are the only ones here fighting this
hill to stop gambling. No farmers nre
here, no cotton mill men*Ttre here."
He read resolutions Indorsing the
Boykin bill. He nhw read quotation*
from one of Tom Lawson's "Frenzied
Finance" articles. Once when Mr. An
derson wished to nak him a question
Mr. Wright declined to be Interrupted.
How Has 8outh Stood It?
"How In the name of heavens the
South has stood the drain of the In
surance companies, the drain of pen
sions and the drain of this marginal
gambling Is beyond human under
standing. Only her marvelous resources
account for It.
"Until I Investigated I thought the
bucket shops were devils, and the ex
changes saints. But they are all alike.

smart gamblers In ih« North ami East.

‘ YOU NEGROES IN THE NOR TH
LET SOUTHERN NEGRO ALONE'
By Private Leased Wire.
Washington, Aug. 1.—Rev. A. J.
Cobb, of Barnesvflle, Oa., at the Negro
Young People'a Christian Congress,
aroused a great deal of applause, but
evidently set himself at odds with the
leaders of hts race by declaring him
self a friend of the white man, and,
turning to those who dally occupy the
platform, said:
"Don't you like this? Whether you
do or not, It Is true."
That part of his speech to which he
referred was: "You negroes In the
North let the Southern negro alone. He
can take care of himself. He Is a
friend of the white man, and the white
man Is a friend of hla. You discuss
racial problems, never forgetting to
bring the white man In. Let him
alone. Stop antagonizing him and
mind my words, he’ll be your friend.
Why, down South I have actually for
gotten that I waa a black man until I
looked Into the looking glass. You
Just let us Southern negroes alone, we
will, take care of ourseles."
Rev. H. H. Proctor, of Atlanta, Ga. #
dlscussin# his subject, “What Can Be
Done to Eradicate Prejudice and Bring
About Better Feeling?" said the prob
lem hinged on money. "First, make
prejudice unprofitable," he declared.
"The courts deny us our rights; pub
lic doors are closed to us; Jim crow
cars are built for us; all simply be
cause It pays."
The speaker then referred to the per
petration of outrages:
"Let that man who lays unholy
hands on a woman die the death of a
fiend," he shouted.

New York, Aug. 3.—Dog days being

stock could think ,to'do today waa to
take a putrol w agon and raid the rooms
of the Art Students' League at 215
West Fifty-seventh street. When tho

the catalogues of the school that the

Ing.
A young woman bookkeeper, Miss
Anna Robinson, th© only person the
veteran raider could find who seemed
to be In charge, wns haled to the police
court a prisoner on a "Jane Doe" war

warrant was Issued on the strength
of a section of the code which provides
for the suppression of the circulation
of obscene literature.
Nearly all the best known artists are
out of town, but the few who could be
found last night were Indignant over
the raid, and talked about taking steps
to find out .whether, the vice suppres
sor had any right t<> enter the school
nnd walk off with the catalogues be/oro
they had been adjudged a violation of
the criminal statutes by a police mag
istrate.
The Art Students League is one of

"It Is freely reported that I am
