With regard to the cause of the dew prices, the report says: It Is conceded that the Ubvtous, apparent and prox imate cause Is over-production. S.nce In ’the main, with deviations produced by abnormal conditions, prlco Is regulated by supply ami demand—a full supply .with relatively dlmln.shed demand bringing low'prices and a great and active demand with diminished supply ibrlnglug higher prices. Where there s an annual increasing supply there ought also to he, to maintain prices, an annual Increasing demand. Statistics are produced to overthrow the theoiy of ovenproduotlon being the cause of the low prices, the sur plus In America and Europe being less than in 1860. Concluding this part of the report, the comm.ttee say: It is the effective wants of the ulti mate consumer which fixes the amount of the demand for the raw cotton. If there was no cotton factory in the United States and foreign cotton man- ufacturen were admitted free of duly and sold at a oost no higher than Is now charged for cotton goods, there would not be 100 hsles less consumed In the United States than at present. If such goods were admitted at a lower price consumption would be advanced. So that the real effective home market for the raw catllon, wherever manu factured, .s In the consumptive power of the people. Whoever takes the cot ton from the farmers and gives It in a manufactured state to the consum ers at the lowest added coat. Is a bene- tfCiai MgC-ut, tVCtsi t<> tuC COuoi producer, by increasing consumption and preventing a surplus. Whoever and whatever Increases this additional Intermediate charge reduces consump tion and injures both producer and consumer. The extent to wlnieh dealing In "fu tures" has attained In tale years Is also set forth as another aittso con tributing to low prices. Much space was taken on this subject by the com mittee. An elaborate argument Is made to show the power of congress to deil with this subject and suppress it. Hav ing established this fact to its own sat isfaction, tire report continues: "It would seem to require no argu ment to show the propriety of the ex ercise of the power if only the result would 1>e to restore'to the public at large the free -and untrammelled right of buying and selling and thus destroy an r'egal monopoly (cotton exchange) confined to the members of t wo corpo rations a ml to the membership of which only a few c-an be admitted ami these only by the selection of the corpora tions themsolrs.

But generally they depress, to a considerable extent, pritacs. and that congrcM baa not only the power to abolish th en, but is In duty bound to do ao. Under port 4 the demonetization of silver is discussed as being a cause for low cotton, more potent than tiny other. There are many printtd pages of arguments 4n favor of the rehabili tation of Oliver and She prevention thereby of falboc prices by the oppo sition uf gold. The committee also finds that the tmkrertetlon at gold from Europe, oth er than by the regular commercial methods, tends to deprem the price of cotton, os It lessens ihe amount of money In tlse market .which flaws the price of cotton. The report concludes with a dlvhdoa devoted to remedial legislation. The conclusion, readhd by Mr. George, chairman of the conmdttee, ere con carred in by hts Republican snso- Clstes. His great r.eneriy is the ‘re monetization of silver, hut be admits that there Is no tanoeidiute prospect for its reallxsMan. Other remedies suggested by the re port are the repeal of the duty on cot ton mnnufsaturing otMMnery. aspe cts llv spinning machinery, the sccom- pHitainent of Which is unlikely.
