New Tork. N. T.
Gentlemen:
1 am today In receipt of your favor
of the 27th inatant. making a defence
of the method* employed In the han
dling of cotton through the New Tork
Cotton Exchange.
The rule* governing the delivery of
cotton on contract, made through the
New Tork Cotton Exchange are very
unsatisfactory, both to the cotton grow
ers and the cotton manufacturers. The
Cotton Manufacturers’ Aaaoclatlon of
Charlotte. N. C„ recently passed very
strong resolutions calling upon the
members of the New Tork Cotton Ex
change to revise their rules relative
to the grade! of cotton tendered on
contracts through your exchange. This
matter seems to be a very serious one
to those who are legitimately engaged
in hsnuiius •pvt cotton.
I would be glad If you would explain
to me why It Is that July contracts are
quoted on your exchange at 10 cent.,
and middling .pot cotton, the basis of
such contracts, Is quoted at 10.»0c on
the ume day. In the same city; nnd
why It Is that future contracts In.New
Tork for the same day are from seven
ty-flve to one hundred points lower
than the same grade of spot cotton can
be purchased In the South.
These are matters wblch the people
of the South, particularly those en
gaged In the production of cotton,
would like very much to have cleared
up. 1 have been Informed personally
by high officials of the New Tork Ex
change that your market Is purely a
speculative one, and’has long ceased to
be regarded by people who operate
there' as a spot market.
There Is no doubt but that some
members of your exchange have with
in the past twelve months made serious
efforts to secure the revision of your
present rules with reference to the de
livery of cotton on contracts, and I
have heard member* of your exchange
very seriously reflect upon that part of
your exchange.
I would be very much obliged to you
If you would write me fully and con
cisely with reference to the above ques
tions, and why It I* that under your
rules a man saw buys middling cotton
can have tendered to him any one of
twenty-one different grades.
With best wishes.
Tours truly,
HARVIE JORDAN.
THE LATEST IN PARIS
Victim Is Set Up and Stab
bed By Two Fair
Rogues.
(Communicated.)
The following letter Is offered In reply to the foregoing:
CHARLES D. FREEMAN & CO-
21 William Street,
N.w York.
Now Orient Correspondent.!
Messrs. Gibert 4 Clay.
August I, 1*0*.
Harvle Jordan, Esq..
President of the Southern Colton Aa-
soclatlon and Editor of The Cotton
Journal, Atlanta. Ga.
Dear Sir:
Inasmuch as you do not dispute the
propositions contained In my letter ad.
dressed to you on July 17. I aesumt
that you now concede that a cotton
contract Is a legitimate medium for the
transaction of ootton business for the
producer, for the merchant and for the
consumer. I assume, further, that your
allegation that If the cotton exchanges
of this country trade In *00,000,00*
bales of cotton during the year, that
you now acknowledge that then* trana
notions are legitimate, and tliat they
are but the transfer of contracts for the
mini delivery of actual cotton.
This brings ms to the consideration
of three propositions contained In your
letter to me, dated July 11:
First. ’’The rules governing th* de
livery of cotton on contracts made
through the New Tork Cotton Ex.
change are vary unsatisfactory, both
to th* cotton growers and to th* man
ufacturers.'*
Second. Tou ask me to explain to
you, "why It Is that July contracts ar.
quoted In your (our) Exchango at 10
- cents and middling spot cotton, th*
bagla of spot contracts. Is quoted at
10.20 on th* same day," and "with ret
erence to the above quotations, why It
Is that under you* (our) rules a man
who buys middling- cotton can have
tendered to him *ny one of twenty-one
different grades," and
Third. Tou "have been Informed per
sonally by high officials of the New
Tork Cotton Exchange that your (our)
market Is pursly a speculative one, and
has long ceaaed to be regarded by peo
ple who operate there as a spot mar
ket."
Any effort to expjpln theso proposi
tions categorically requires an analysis
of ths conditions surrounding the New
Tork cotton market
It Is a fair question for you, or any
one to ask: Why la New Tork a cotton
market at all? Why, located so far
from th* fields of production, should It
bare dally transactions of 160,000 bales,
and whfr 700,000'bol*. of actual cotton
should annually pass through, or re
main temporarily at Its port. Reallx
lng In some essentials that the market
I. an artificial onr^ the merchants of
this city have adopted rules for ths
handling of merchantable cotton, and
have established a trading basis, which
protects the buyes and seller of cotton
contracts assuming primarily that the
buyer and seller have a legitimate
transaction to consummate, either with
th* producer or the consumer. This
brings us squarely to the question at
Issue, as to-why th* New Tork con
tract la, as you and others allege, a
debauched contract? (This term "de
bauched" I* a convenient expression
used by people In the cotton business
who do not understand, nor who have
taken the trouble to analyse the true
conditions which exist In New Tork.)
Realising further that It I* Impos
sible, by reason of the trade conditions
which prevail throughout th* world,
for New Tork to command even run
ning grades of cotton In quantity, rules
have been formed which make this
market one for ANT MERCHANTA
BLE GRADE OF COTTON, and have
provided for th* tender on contract of
thirty different grades. The basis of
this tender la always middling cotton,
and with equitable and commercial al
lowance. made for grades below and
above middling, which allowances are
fixed twice In a season by a committee
of seventeen merchants. It Is assumed
that both the seller and buyer of a
New Tork contract know nil the con
ditions surrounding the terms of ths
»’
Nsw York
New Orleans
S.vann.h
Liverpool
contract when they execute It.
Tou and others refer to "dog-tall"
cotton that Is tendered In New Tork.'
think It Is your duty to stop and con
sider the resources to the Southern
producer, of a market for grades of
cotton for which h* might not be able
to find a market In hla own territory.
Falling to find the profitable market at
homa he may ship his cotton to New
Tork, and during all the year* that
these ruls* have been In operation, ail
grades of cotton that have com* to
Nsw Tork have In th* end been
shipped hencs to spinners, or exported
on a profitable basts. Ths rules are
not designed to make this primarily a
consumer’s market. They are designed
to make It a producer’s market, and
by reason of Its location geographically
It could not exist solely as a spinners’
market. The spinners of the country
well know this, and they make their
rifle contracts elsewhere, or
>ugh the merchants of the New
Tork Cotton Exchange who ore able
to procure the specified grades.
Th* New Tork market responds to
the same laws and forces t? which all
markets respond. A market la a place
where buyers and sellers meet to buy
and sell commodities or things, and In
the final analysis, actual value prevails
and every one Is. supposed to know
the rule, affecting the trading.
This analysis makes posslbl* an ex-
plantation of your second proposition—
why July contracts are quoted at 10
cent* and middling spot cottton Is
quoted at 10.*0 on the same day. The
reason Is, that 10.00 la the price of
middling cotton If It be obtainable, but
the bulk of the stock of cotton In
the warehouses of New Tork at that
time being composed of grades below
middling, tho contract price represents
the actual value of ‘
are available for ti
We will assume, a* the basis of argu
ment, that you have a large stock
farm on which you raise horses. Some
are better than others. Horses suit
able for the work on your plantation,
for hauling, Allowing and cultivating,
are worth tloO each. Tour finer stock,
suitable for fast driving and superior
In other qualities, are worth 1160 each.
Now. I ask you. as an economic prop
osition, If, unable to sell your plow
horses at home, you are obliged to
send them to another market, should
you and your neighbors condemn th*
market wherein you sell them because,
perchance, they do not bring a. high a
price ns do your thoroughbreds?
1 must take Issue with you that.
You h*x# been personally Informed
by high officials of the New York Cot'
ton Exchange that the New York mar
ket Is purely a speculative one, and
has long cessed to be a spot market."
In my opinion, made ouch a statement
Some of the member* of ths exchange,
In an effort to explain their own bus
iness Incapacity, attribute their medi
ocre success to the so-called ”de
bauched" contract. There Is an honest
difference of opinion among the mer
chant* of the exchange as to what I*
the value of grades below middling and
the grades above middling. Trade con
ditions. the quantity and quality of
the various grades, and the demand
therefor, are the factors considered, but
with alt this difference of opinion there
Is the determination to leg' '
to establish the New York contract
on the commercial basis that shall
open lo planters of cotton a market
for every grade that their plantations
reduce, and to attract to the port of
few York such cotton as shall keep
the contract market In equilibrium, and
thus afford an opportunity for your
friends and mine to conduct their
business on a safe baste, by hedge sales
and hedge purchases.
‘ rtun
om of Informing the
Southern people of the truth affecting
cotton contracts. As you are sealous
In destroying "bucket shops and local
exchanges,” you should be equally seal
ous In advising the producer, of cotton
to respect the contracts that ar* made
In New York and New Orleans, and
consider them a commercial expedient
for the distribution of their crops, remi
tting that In the future, aa the yield
becomes larger, the necessity for the
cotton contract will he greater.
Very truly !

Paris, Aug. 11.—French historians
and others who are Interested In sou
venirs of bygone times in France are
rejoicing over Monsieur Clemenceau'a
decision to permit the restoration upon
th* tombstones of the members of the
Commune of the statements setting
forth the connection of tho deceased
with that famous Institution.
Up to the present It has been
against the-law to Inscribe upon the
tombstones of the former Communard*
anything recalling th* part which they
played In 1671.
Among th* few surviving Commun
ards Is M. Henri Rockefoert. the bellig
erent journalist, and one of the most
picturesque figures of .modern. Franca
M. Rockefoert la really a marquis, but
he refuses his tltla His wife Is an
American and waa a Mias O’Key.
Everybody who has been to Paris
must know the amiable elderly gen-
Herman who feeds ths sparrows with
crumbs of bread In the Tuileries Gar
dens.
This person now has a rival In the
affections of the litli* helium, but. the
new-comer Is specially drawn to swnl
lows and hla benefaction takes the
form particularly of supplying them
with shelter. M. Jacques, such Is hla
name, who enjoys a modest Income,
has noticed that the swallows In the
city have a somewhat precarious ex.
Istence and that their nesta are terri
bly at th* mercy of thq little human
gutter-snipe.
He has determined to remedy this
state of affaire, and for this purpose
has. hired soma fifty garrets In various
parts of the city. He leaves the win
dows of all these rooms open and
locks the doors, taking ths keys away
with him. The swallows come and
build their neats In the empty room*.
M. Jacques goes around daily to see
that his little proteges are getting
along all right In the autumn; when
the swallows go away, he will shut up
his garrets and go to the south of
France to await their return next
eprlng.
Combinations of government em
ployees In France are not allowed, and
a month or two ago a large number of
postofflee employees were cashiered for
daring to form themselves Into a syn
dicate. Some conaternatlon has been
caused In official circles by the knowl
edge that the Paris police are going to
form themselves Into a syndicate. M.
Lepine, chief of police, took the mat
ter to the minister of the Interior, and
steps have been taken to prevent such
a syndicate being formed until parlia
ment has discussed the new association
law.
M. Porel, the manager of the fash
ionable little vaudeville theater, and
ex-husband of the famous actress, Re-
jsne, brought an action against M.
Gemler, an actor, claiming $*,000 dam
ages because the latter refused to per
form In a minor part for which he
was, cast.
The court held that M. Gemler wa*
justified, os his engagement had been
for ’’star'’ roles only, and M. Porel
lost his case..
"Your money or your life.” Such
was the terror-etrtklng remark that
greeted a gentleman named Naptler, In
the Boulevard do Crenelle os 'he was
ilng a dark alley the other night,
looked and hla astonishment was
not lass than hi* fright on finding that
his assailants were two dashing fs-
males. "Wo are the Amaaones of th*
Grenslle,” they yelled at him, leaving
no doubt In his mind that they might
after all only be having a playful little
joke. He drew back and woe about
to remonstrate, when the charming
things rushed at him with <1 eager,
and stabbed him In several places. Ho
fell senseless to the ground, and the
two lady footpads helped themselves
to his watch and the contents of his
pockets and decamped. Th* victim Is
now lying In a hospital In a serious
condition.

Plebeian Legislator, Ignored

AT THE THEATERS
At the Casino.
Vaudeville will continue Its bid for
popularity with the theatergoers, and
Inasmuch as there are many people re
turning home, the strength of the bill
that will start entertaining on Monday
at the Casino will probably establish
the attendance record for the summer
theater.
The new bill Is a perfect collection
of vaudeville, well balanced and with'
out a doubt one of th* strongest com
edy combinations of the entire season.
There are features that have been tried
and found to be gilt-edged, and there
are others that are well known to th*
follower* of th* pace In this branch of
things theatrical.
The headUner act of the program
will be the contribution of the Elenora
Bisters, who were at th* head of one
of th* strongest musical comedy at
tractions that drew the capacity of th*
Bijou last season. Theae comedienne*
have been featured In the best vaude
ville theaters In the land, and present
an act that I* original In quaint ec
centric comedy and Is all for tan.
As a special feature for the ladles
and children Jacob’s Marvelous Acro
batic Doga will be Introduced. These
dogs ore finely trained, and will surely
prove to be one of the pleasing fea
ture* of the vaudeville season. The
dogs will perform a routine of tricks
have kept the act prominent In
levllle and that will make a strong
hid for a real hit here.
Mile. Latino, In a physical culture
stunt, promise* a novelty, and Cart-
mell and Reed will offer a comedy
;tng and dancing number that Is
said to be very good. <
Morris and Morris, who come to At
lanta almost direct from the Palace In
London, and who are known as "come
dy eccentriques." will offer an act that
hae been a great comedy success Is
America.
Moving picture* have been most
successful and th* pictures to he ex
hibited this week are declared to be
the best yet offered.
The bill Is one of exceptional
strength, with comedy as Its principal
quality. The acts are all high-class,
' t Is believed that the’bill will fol-
he pace that has been so swift for
the past three weeks.

London, Aug. 11.—While the ft nan'
rial magnates who have control of
the savings banks of America, through
their Influence at Washington, pre
vent th* establishment of an American
postofflee savings bank, here In Eng
land the postofflee savings bank Is
popular festur*.
The establishment of the postofflee
savings bank has been an enormous
Inducement to the cultivation of thrift
among the workingmen of England.
During the post fiscal year they de
posited 6111,000,000. They alio drew
from the government, In the form of
Interest on undisturbed deposits, the
large earn of 12,100,000. With their sav
Ings a portion of the depositor* were
enabled to buy over $10,000,000 of gov '
eminent bonds.
There Is now In the bank, excluding
withdrawals during the year, the
enormous sum of 2760,0000,000. Flnan
rial experts declare that were It not
for the facility posio/flco savings
banks offer to the thrift, tho people's
savings would not be one-half this
sum.
As every postofflee In the land ac
cepts deposits, It la easy to deposit a
shilling or two a week. Also with
drawals are easy, tot under the new
regulations It Is possible for a deposit
or to withdraw any sum up to $6 at
any postoffice without delay. For sums
over 16, two or three days’ delay Is
necessary to enable the bookkeepers at
the general postofflee to balance and
check the account.
By fraternising with s labor member
of parliament at a swell function, the
duke of Norfolk administered a tell
ing reproof to a snobbish crowd who
Ignored the plebeian legislator.
It was at a reception given by a fash
lonable art society, at which Will
Crooks, member of parllarment for
Woolwich, turned up in his house of
commons suit. Instead of the regula
tion evening dress.
Getting post the doorkeeper with dif
ficulty, Mr. Crooks was received with
haughty stares by the. crowd of "smart"
people. Although Mr. Crooks must hav<
been known to many, hs wax unant
mouily cut dead. His appearance with'
out the customary "boiled shirt" was
resented.
While the labordeader was wandering
lonesomely about, looking at the pic
tures and braving It out, the duke of
Norfolk arrived. HI* grace soon
"spotted” Mr. Crooks, and saw how
he was being treated.
Coming up to where th* lonely mem
her for Woolwich waa standing, the
duke greeted him heartily and said:
"Mr. Crooks, have you found your way
to the supper room? Come and let us
have a cup of coffee together.”
So the premier duke of Great Brit
ain and the ex-cooper, who was bora
In a work house, spent th* rest of the
evening together. Mr. Crooks told the
story the other night on the terrace of
the house of commons.
The countess of Tankervllle, who
was Mies Van Marter, of New York,
haa been sharply criticised by a judge
In a London court for her treatment
of her late French maid, Marie Pathter.
The maid sued her mistress for $60
salary In lieu of notice. It appeared
that the girl was 111 and Lady Tank
ervllle said that If she could rot do
her duties she must leave. She went
at once, hut ' Lady Tankervllle only
offered her her salary to date, which
■he refused.
In giving Judgment against the
countess for the amount of salary up
to the time of the maid’s leaving, the
e said he thought Marie Pathler
been very badly treated, and he
was sorry he could not find In her fa
vor for the amount of the'month’s sal
