Mr. Brooks is in Atlanta on a tour of the South in the inter ests of curbing “bucket shops” and was confronted with the action of Solictor-General John A. Boykin in recently ordering a raid on the Atlanta exchange and other brokerage houses on the grounds that they were il legally trading in cotton fu tures. p After reviewing the situation, he said that he would not at tempt to go into the merits of the fight by Mr. Boykin or the Georgia laws, but merely rest ed after saying that if the ex change is declared illegal the state will not be entitled to their quotations. He said the New York exchange will not tolerate anything illegal in the conduct of its business. TO CONFER WITH OFFICIALS AT N. O. He said he felt confident that the board of managers will adopt his suggestion and added that he is leaving Atlanta Friday for New Orleans, where he will confer \zsth the president of the New Orleans cotton exchange with a view to inducing it to take the same action against Georgia. Questioned with regard to the effect such action would have on cotton traffic ,in the state, Mr. Brooks said: “It will paralyze your cotton traf fic. You cannot operate without our quotations.” Mr. Brooks stated that such a ruling by the exchange would close all direct avenues for quotations coming Into the state. He declared the telegraph companies would not be,, permitted to furnish them to anyone in the state' nor would the press associations be allowed to carry them *nd thosa to tbs AUGUSTA GEORGIA, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, NOVEMBER 21, 1924 w Mrs. Harding Mrs. HARDING newspapers they serve. The verdict of the first trial court will not be accepted as a basis for such a ruling by the exchange, in case it is adverse, according to Mr. Brooks. He said that without doubt the local exchange would appeal to the state supreme court In which case the exchange would wait on a ruling by that body. Solicitor-General Boykin based his prosecution on the Atlanta commercial exchange on the allega tion that it “displays blackboards upon which futures iftjotations are posted or printed” and that “it deals ip futures on margins” both of which are prohibited under the laws of the State of Georgia. The progress of the case was said Thursday to be at a standstill, the grand Jury not being in session.

He returned when he saw the men speeding away anil picking his pistol from the hands of his dying wife, fired the remaining bullets at the men. Dr. E. F. Eaves, a neighbor of Rev.
