STANDARD FOR COTTONSENT TO THE TRADE

Government Samples WerePrepared With Great Care jby Special Committee. I

*

Sample boxes of the "standard cotton t

samples" by which the immense crop ofthe United States is graded and sold are

being sent out by the Department of Ag- !riculture. The work was done by a spe- »

cial committee of men familiar with the 1

conditions of the trade and selected by '

the Secretary of Agriculture not only be- jcause of their technical skill and stand- j

ing in the business world, but becauseof their exceptionally high personal char-acteristics. The reason that so muchcare was taken in this selection was be- 1

cause there is only a microscopic dif-ference in the variation of cotton from jgrade to grade, and while there is a jvery small actual advance in price fromgrade to grade, the aggregate of the cottoncrop last year was $850,000,1100, so

that a very small difference in the grad- i

\VKLL.INGTOX, X. Z., July 14, li»10. iA discussion has taken place in parliamentregarding boy immigration from

Krigland. The system was opposed by jthe labor members, who argued that thegovernment had no right to take actionwhich was favorable to employers anddetrimental to the workers. The premier 1replied, stating that there was a scarcityof boy labor, botti for farming an4 forgovernment departments. ]Thomas Mackenzie, minister of agriculture,in a vigorous speech, defended the

principle. Apart from the New Zealandpoint of view, he said, they should con- 1sider its imperial aspect. Instead of allowingGreat Britain's best emigrants togo to foreign countries they should unitewith the motherland in inducing the sur- ]plus youths to till the empty spaces overseas. Not only would they thus providelabor for the development of the agriculturalindustry, but they would assist <in holding the empire together. Anotherimportant i>oint was that every emigrantto New Zealand meant worth of :trade to Great Britain, whereas, if settledin America, such emigrant representedonly worth of trade.

ing. of cotton would make an immensedifference in the total value of the crop,both to growers and buyers.

In Sets of Nine Boxes.The standard grade samples are put up

in sets of nine boxes by the department,representing nine grades of white Americancotton. But while this serves as a

sufficient grading standard, the traderecognizes a grade between each of thenine established by the government andthree grades above and three below thegovernment scale. The cotton buyer, on

getting his box of standard grade samples,uses it to match the cotton that isbrought to him for sale.A startdard box is sold by the departmentfor $35, and with good care will last

a year or more before it begins to deteriorate.What the department considers its

greatest triumph is in fixing the originalstandard samples so that they would notdeteriorate or change color." There hasnever been a permanent cotton standardsample in the history of the world, thereason being that it has never been possibleto keep the standards from deteriorating.fn the present instance, after the

standard grades had been selected withthe greatest care by the committee ofexperts, they were put in big glasstubes, the air exhausted and the tubessealed just like an incandescent lightglobe. In fact the actual work wasdone at one of the big electric globeplants.

Adopted by Exchange.The standards have been officially

adopted by the Memphis Cotton Ex- ,

change, approved and will probably beadopted by the New,York and the NewOrleans exchanges. It was hoped tohave the big European countries representedon the standard committee, becausea third of the American crop issold abroad and it is very desirable tohave foreigners adopt the same standardsas America. The standard sampleshave been largely approved bythe English buyers who have seen thefn,but they have not yet been officially presentedto any of the foreign exchanges.The men who established the cotton

standards were some of the biggest* andbest known men in the trade. They wereJoseph A. Airy of John M. Parker & Co.,New Orleans; James Akers of Inmttn,Akers & Inman. Atlanta. Ga.; F. M.Crump of F. &1. Crump & Co.,-Memphis,lenn.; i r. rsaKer 01 me uaivreni'e

DROPS PERJURY CHARGEDISTRICT ATTORNEY WILL NOTPRESS CASE AGAINST SMITH.

Latter's Attorney Holds That MatterIs Inconsequential in View of

Verdict in Recent Trial.

Richard H. Smith has the distinction ofhaving married two women, without theformality c? a divorce, and yet withoutviolating law. At a trial last month hewas acquitted of a charge of bigamybecause the government could not provethat he had heard from his tirst wifewithin five years of the second ceremony.Assistant United States Attorney Turnerbeing unwilling to let Smith go at

thai time, prefered a charge of perjuryagainst him and he was committed toawait action by the grand jury. The perjurycharge grew out of the statementon the marriage license record for thesecond venture that Smith had neverbefore been married.Attorney M. E. O'Brien yesterday prevailedon United States Attorney Wilson

to drop the perjury charge when it wasshown that the matter of a previous marriagehad become inconsequential by reasonof the finding of the jury that Smithwas justified in thinking his first wifedead.Smith's detention in jail arose from his

love of the name Merson. In 18513 he marriedMary Merson and after nine yearsa separation took place. Not hearingfrom her for five years he met her firstcousin, also named Merson, and fell inlove with her. On his second honeymoonhis first wife heard of the remarriageand complained to the police.

James G. McDowell, sixty-two yearsold. died Wednesday at the home of hisbrother-in-law. Charles K. Baeehtell, atHagerstown, Md. He was a native ofHagerstown and for many years engagedin business there. In recent years helived at Indianapolis.

PRINCE DIJITS REICHSTAGRESIGNS THE OFFICE OF SECONDVICE PRESIDENT.

Withdrawal of Member of Houseoi Hohenlohe-Langenburg

Causes Surprise.i

Foreign Correspondence of The Stnr.BERLIN July 14, 1910.

The Hereditary Prince of HohenloheLangenburghas resigned his office as secondvice-president of the reiehstag. Thenews has caused consternation in politicalcircles here.The prince, who is an independent

member of the imperial or free conservativeparty for Gotha, was elected vice

president last year during the struggleover financial "reform." He accepted oflice,believing that by so doing he was

giving a unity of purpose to the presiJ..a *a tho cnlldifloa.uency anu i:uulxluuimg ».*_» luv uv.*v»x.*v»

tion of the bloc. Owins, however, to recentpolitical events, especially recent byelectionsin which the bloc oppears to beseriously imperiled by the action of thenational liberals, the prince believes hisposition untenable, and that the prospectof holding together the bloc no longerexists.

Partly Due to Encyclical.Apart from this purely political considerationthe prince has been compelled

to take his present step by the contentsand the effects of the recent Borromeoencyclical, which make it impossible forhim to hold the position of vice presidentif he is also to abide by the principleswhich have hitherto inspired his publiclife.This probably means that the prince

declines to strengthen by his associationthe clerical conservative union, whichstill holds together, despite the supportof the encyclical by the clericals.There is little doubt that the prince's

resignation will have far-reaching consequences,as it is a serious blow at theof the existiner maioritv in the

re'ichstag.Prince Hohenlohe married a daughter

of the late Duke of Saxe-Coburg andGotha (Duke of Ednburgh), and is, therefore,by marriage, a cousin of KingGeorge of England. He acted as regentof the duchy from 1JKK) to 1005.On account of recent dismissals of high

functionaries and voluntary resignationsof others, it appears that a serious crisisin the government is impending.
