The President being absent the vice-president was called to the ekiir. The question then arose as to whether he, occupying the chair was entitled to a vote as a Director. rif he could only vote in case of a tie, ust as the 1'residetit would vote. The Kelly men contended that he could vote as a Director, while the Hoover men took the con trary view. The discussion was animated the Directors standing six to six.

Some of the Hoover men, who handle large quantities of cotton, Raid unless an experienced Warehouseman was elected they would store their cotton elsewhere. Mr. Kelly then arose and said that while he desired the position of Su- terintendent, he would not by his candidacy endanger the success of the Warehouse and asked that his name be withdrawn. After further discussion the meeting adjourned tin-til 2 o'clock. For sometime after re-assembling the Directors were unable to do any thing, when Mr.

D. A. Swayzc came to the rescue and proposed the election of Mr. Hoover to weigh and look Jufter tin! cotton. and tliat Sir.
