PROBE, GEORGIAN
Representative Tribble Wants
Investigation of New Ybrk
Exchange and Its Methods.
Washington, D. C.—lnvestigation of
the New York Cotton Exchange and its
methods of dealing with the present
cotton situation yvas proposed in the
house today by Representative Trib
ble, of Georgia.
In a statement accompanying his
resolution, Representative Tribble,
said:
“When the cotton exchange opened
the price of cotton was exceedingly
low and yet the New York Cotton Ex
change hammered down the price one
cent per pound almost immediately.
This was a fair test of the methods of
the exchanges.
“The exchange was closed and open
ed on a low market and yet the open
ing of the exchange cost the farmers
of the south millions of dollars. If I
secure an investigation and the facts
can be brought out this investigation
will in all probability bring about
prosecution of those guilty of fleecing
the farmers of their well-earned pro
fits and mav esult in the total abolish
ment of the exchanges.”
The resolution was referred to the
rules committee.
ORGANIZED BALL
TO BEGIN ID?
American, National and Inter
national Magnates Met in N.
Y.; Await “Fighting” Order
From National Commission?
New York.—Organized baseball was
represented here today by American,
National and International League mag
nates and the, opinion prevailed that they
were waiting for orders ft'om the Na
tional Commission to begin a war on the
Federal League that will determine for
all time whether there shall be three
major baseball leagues or two.
At a dinner given last night, much of
the talk was said to have related to the
Federal League’s activity of late in en
ticing players from the older organiza
tions.
All forecasters were unanimous in
saying the national commission would
issue war orders, including instructions
to blacklist players who desert organized
baseball for the Federals.
A meeting of the National League
board of directors was set. for this after
noon previous to the annual league
meeting. The presence of President
Johnson and a majority of the American
League club owners also gave Vise to
reports that a special meeting of that
body would be held here this week to
back up the parent organization and the
national commission in the fight to re
strict the baseball field of the country.
