THE courmitted of the New York Consolidated Stock Exchange on the 5th May ordered the expulsion of three members of the Exchange. Two brokers had already been expelled, and more expulsions are believed to be imminen.

It is generally understood that the men have been found guity of fraudulent dealings, and that their expulsion is in no way connected with the recent ftre of Messrs. Woodend and Company. Apparently there is at presen a ring of brokers in the Consolidated Exchange engaged in a new and intricate system of fraud similar to some of those practised by the bucket shops.

that a acceptance of the first question is to be implied. Their Lordships are of opinion that tue mere statement of the lowest price at which the vendor would sell contains no implied con. tract to sell at that price to the persons making the inquiry. In the case now before the Court, I regard the telegram (A) avan inquiry about lowest prices and as containing so facit inquiry whether Heureux would sell to Lemaire. 1 regard the telegram (B) as a reply giving the sell. I regard the telegram (C) as an offer lowest price and not as constituting an offer to

terms. That offer, having been lont ́by cable, consisting of Heuerux's terms and of other required an acceptance by cable. No such acceptance was forthcoming. Then on the th November, 1903, more than six weeks after the offer of 25th September was made, Lemaire wired cancelling all orders. This he was entitled to do in the absence of an accept ance by Heureux: for an offer may always be Mr. E. J. Grist appeared for the plaintiff, and withdrawn before acceptance. I have said that. My, Hall Brutton for the defendant,

the offer, having been made by cable, required an acceptance by cable. The distance apart of the parties, the previous telegrams and the presumption arising upon an offer by tele gram that a prompt reply is expected see venerdain v. Cele (31 W. R. 185), all point to an acceptance by telegram as the proper und expected mode of acceptance. It may be said that Heureux's conduct in placing an order for the goods with manufactures amounted to an acceptance. Apart from there being na evidence of this conduct as against the de- fendant, there could be no communication of such acceptance by conduc. between parties separated by thousands of miles; and it is af essential to the parties of a contract that accep tance must be communicated and communi cated within a reasonable time. There will be judgment for defendant with costs.
