PLAy BY SENATOR SMITH. South Carolinian Responsible for Compromise.?Lever Also Helps. Washington. Sept. 3i~>?By adopting the Underwood amendment to the Clarke amendment to the tariff bill, (he house of representatives tonight indorsed Senator E. D. Smith's plan for the regulation of dealings in cotton futures. Majority Leader Underwood in the course of his remarks on the cotton schedule said: "The first t-"me I ever heard of the proposition was- when it was introduced in a bill offered by Senator Smith of South Carolina. In that bill he nthe interstate commerce I power o'' the government to enforce trie bill." Representative Lever heartily concurred in the support of the amendment an^ in the course of his argu me?it said: "The history of this substitute may tlirow some light upon the proposition and have some weight with the membership of this house. The substitute was drawn at my suggestion? if you will pardon a personal refer' ence?by experts of the department of agriculture and the department of commerce. The first draft of the bill was submitted to the postmaster general of the United Sharps. who for long years was a distinguished member of congress and whose record in reference to this kind of legislation is well known to the membership of this house. He made some suggestions and some corrections, and, indeed, added some ideas. The substitute as then agreed upon by him and myself was handed to the president of the United States. The substitute em- j b'odied the ideas contained in the bill introduced in the senate of the United States and acted favorably upon several times by its committee on agriculture by the junior senator from South Carolina?Senator Smith?who Sas given not one day, not one year, but 20 years of thought to this prob lem. The president of the United States agreeing to the substitute, put it into the hands of the gentleman from Alabama who offered it in conference and who offers it now." If the senate accepts the Underwood amendment, and it is believed that it will, the principle for which Senator Smith has been contending so long and for which Mr. Lever so ably agreed will become a law within the next few days.

MeKeynolds Takes Hand in Matter.? May Mean Two Places. Washington, Sept. 30.?Members or the South Carolina delegation in congress put on their thinking caps today to wonder what it meant when they heard that Attorney General McReynolds. had taken hold of the South j Carolina district attorneyship matter I'rom a new angle ana mat soineuiuis definite which would probably satisfy all parties concerned might be looked for soon. The statement that Mr. McReynolds had thrown himself into the situation again is clue to the fact that the (bill introduced in the house last week hv "Ronrpspntntive Aiken providing j for a new western district with a dis- ; trict attorney and other court ma- i chinery, has caused some of those interested in the present situation to see j light ahead. I Some of the members say that as far back as 1822 South Carolina was di fM* vided into two "districts" or ui- i visions" and that a later revision of the federal laws distinctly afirms tills action although only one set of court officials was at that early date provided for. Whatever the case may be, according to what was said here today, the matter is up to the attorney gen"? ??1 fmn -n nni'n irvn nrsr? it OllltG Clfll 1U1 au ~ likely that a report will be made immediately because of the very acute situation existing here at the present time. If the attorney general finds that former acts still hold good and have not been reDealed. it would appear a simple matter for the president to name two district attorneys and two marshals, one set for eastern arid one for the western district. That would probably simplify matters to some extent i It is believed that even if nothing is r>/\TT' f/~v niif^nnVo n r\f UUIIC liUVT tv/ auuiui "tt til V/X uuviv LA V* the new western district, as proposed by Mr. Aiken, action may be looked for early in the next session, which is but 60 days away.
