Washington. Feb. It. Tho hearings
of the house agricultural committee on
tho anti-option bills were resumed. Her-
bert Mynck of Springfield Mass. editor
of several agricultur.il papers said tho
matter of dealing in fictitious kinds of
products was one which affected tho
producers of the south west north and
east. Passing on the question of cotton
he stated in the city of New York be-
tween Sept. 1 aud Jan. 1(1 the total spot
Bales amounted to :10000 bales. This
was about as much as had been actually
received. But the sales of cotton in
futures during tho same period nmnuut-
ed to 1.350200.
J. "W. Laboursc representing tho New
Orleans cotton exchange referred to tho
last sH.'aker's comparison hut if tho
Baid gentleman quoted the proportion
of 183! and lb!IO it would be sten that
thu projiortion then had been even
l.irger in favor of futures and yet the.
price of cotton was ciihaflced. As
tar as cotton was concerned hi wr.s of
the opinion that so far from deprecia-
tion in value the existence ot contiacts
for future delivery berved rather as a
restraint to serious declines in times of
depression. He quoted statistics to
show that when sides of futures weie
unknown fluctuations in tho price of
cotton had been as great or greater than
since lie domed that the exchanges of
New York and New Orleans regulated
tho price. They simply registered it.
The law of supply and demand regu-
lated the price.
John G. Hazard also representing the
New Orlesan cotton exchange followed in
the same line ot nrgument. Ho believed
that if this bill became a law it would
paralyze the cotton industry.

Washington Feb. t). Francis G.
Newlands addressed the house coiumit-
teo on coinage weights and measures on
the international mouetary conference
on tho bilver question opposing that
proposition. He reviewed tho history of
the silver question and then went on to
show why the United States should
adopt tree silver and why nothing could
be expected of Europe. All persons
realized this was an "ago ot combines
and trusts." Gold nations were creditor
nations. Those nations needed little
development and hence their accumula
tions were invested in the development
of other countries. As owners of money
it was to their interest to make money
valuable. The only way to do this was
by limiting the quantity. Tho easiest
way to do so was by forming a gold
trust to prevent silver coinage and de-
stroy the legal tender quality of existing
bilver monoy. Gold was being dimin-
ished every day by the demands of arts
and dentistry and it was held that tho
store of gold soin was being invaded to
meet these demands.
Tho annual product of silver was in-
creasing slightly. The creditor nations
therefore secured great advantage by
demonetizing silver and thus incieasing
the burden of obligations to thein. Wo
wero wealthy nation everything ex-
cept money. England's wealth was
principally in money. Wo utilized all
tho money we could boirow aud owed to
Europe m national state municipal and
railway debts more than tho entire
volume of money existing iu this coun-
try. Whenever anything occurred iu
Europe which tightened their money
market they called on us to buy our ob-
ligations aud wero obliged to absorb
thorn lor unless those obligations wero
sustained there would bo a goneral de-
struction of values.
