' V ' "Who bears the real, actual risk, from "the . seed - to the final transac tion?" asked Representative Beall, of Texas. ' The witness did not make di rect answer. . He characterized the New York cotton contract, "which gives the option entirely to the seller, as "fair" and the fixed difference sys , tem in the exchange, he claimed, fur nished economy. "Is not the so-call- ed gambling as carried on in the ex- racing and roulette playing:?" asked T.J. Brooks, of Tennessee, for the National Farmers' Union. "I am not sufficiently 'posted as to horse racing and roulette,", retorted Latham, sharply. " ' Mr. Latham said he justified the ex changes because of the facility they afforded for hedging transactions, but did not justify their existence in case such facility did not exist. He said the hedging system enabled the smal ler dealers to borrow money easily and the hedging does not make the mill owners natural bears and depress prices. , - A. L. Marsh, vice president of the New York Cotton Exchange, defended the . exchange transactions, at this af ternoon's session. JUDGE HART THREATENED. CRITICISE SECRETARY KNOX. Referred to His Bold Strokes of Di plomacy Knox's . Action- . Washington, Feb. 11 Secretary of State Knox was subjected v to some very caustic-criticism in the House to day by Representative . Frances Bur ton Harrison, of New York, during consideration of the Diplomatic and Consular Appropriation bill. . , , Many bold strokes in diplomacy. said Mr. Harrison, were only justified by their successes in the instance of President Cleveland's Venezuela mes- changes In the same class with horseisage. - But that had not been the case "Man Indicted for Liquor Selling" Saya Will Shoot. 0 Nashville, .Tenn., -Feb. 11. Judge William Hart, of the Davidson, county criminal court, is in receipt of a let ter in which the statement is made that a man recently indicted for ille gally selling liquor will kill both Judge Hart and Attorney General Mc Ca.rn if he is convicted when his trial comes up. The plan Is. it is stated, that if the man is convicted, a friend in waiting in the court room will pass him a pis tol and he 'will first shoot Judge Hart and then General McCarn. . The man is said to be bitter to wards Judge Hart because certain acts of that official in connection with the indictment now pending. This morning a man who said that he is "one of barkeepers of the city called up a reporter on the telephone and said: . ' "There is a plan" to assassinate Judge Hart Monday, pne of our fel lnnra hpnrri onft of the "men un der Indictment for selling: whiskey xin- f fold his plan for having one of his friends pass him a pistol if he is con victed, with which he will shoot the judge. I don't know whether he would have the nerve to do it or not, but he says he is going to. and all of us know him to be a desperate character. The barkeepers will not stand . for that kind of thing and one of ufe.has writ ten a letteT to Judge Hart in order to put him on his guard." ' Efforts to learn the identity of the man who gave this information were futile. When asked to give his name he immediately hung up the receiver. The operator stated that the man talked from, a public pay station. -: Judge Hart was seen a few min- utes later and stated that he had received the letter. It was written on plain paper, in a disguised-hand" and no clue could be had as to .where it came from. ., ' V-'. v V ',- It was signed "barkeeper." In. the letter the statement is made that the man under indictment -proposes to kill both Judge Hart and McCarn but that he will shoot the former first, to make sure, and then take chances on getting the attorney general. The plan of having a friend pass him a pistol is. mentioned, in the letter. In fact the statements of the letter con form closely to the statements made over the telephone to the reporter. with some of the bold strokes of di plomacy brought forth by Secretary Knox, he said. The Nicaraguan Im broglio, the Manchurian railway mat ter and Secretary Knox's declaration that he would find it his duty to see that Democratic forms of government should be maintained jn Central Amer ica, he mid, were examples of failure in. the diplomacy of Secretary Knox. "This position wag so untenable", he ruded. referring to the mainten ance - of Democratic governments . in Central America, "that some day we will be obliged to retire from it with mortification." . There had been an obvious difficulty in procuring men of proper character and ability to serve the United States abroad, said Mr. Harrison. . y ; "The French mission wa -vacant for months until a man of proper cali bre could be found," he said. "Take Austria, where a man,- R. C. Keerens, has been sent to represent the United States after having hit fitness for the position measured chiefly by the size of his, campaign contribution. 1 Take the English mission. After that posi tion bad been declined publicly by a noted educator. (Dr. Eliot) it has been offered by a New York newspaper to Paul Morton, and if Mr. Morton is ap pointed that act will be to award a "self-confessed violator of law and it will become patent to all the world that the path of the rebater is to lead to the foot. of the throne." This difficulty in finding good men for' foreign missions. Mr. Harrison said, was the result of the destruc tion of diplomacy by the ocean cable. "Today the ambassadors are too of ten messenger boys in silk knee breeches with swords, - who spend their time being photographed, as the hosts of royalty or in playing the part of 'hands across the sea.", declared Mr. Harrison. "To an active, virile man such a position would seem im possible."
