It brings together into on* daanclal measure a number of propo atttoao which have boon urged separ ately heretofore. Mr. Vtowlnr explains th* parpoeee of th* Mil as follows: “To transfer from the government to th* banks the reepossibility of protecting th* isceeeary gold reesrve and the burden of furnish nig gold for expert, thereby earing oar commerce from the destructive apprehensions growing out of raids upon th* gold in th* Treaaary. which can now only he replenished by a tax imposed th* people through th* eel* of bonds; to provide a currency always reepon* •tv* and adequate to th* demands of trad* eiery wheie. and to equalise and lower the ayerage rata at In terest in all parts of th* United States; to secure for American enter prise and American capital th* privi lege* and opportunities of engaging la International hanking under th* national law and ao lay n foundation upon which to build an American merchant marine; to remove th* last vestige of doebt with regard to our standard of valu*. “The measure provides for Interna tional banking, and a division of banking and currency Is established, under n board of control. Instead of s single Individual In th* person of the Comptroller of th* Currency, me heretofore. The board will consist of three members, whose terms of offi ce nr* for U years, eo arranged that only one member will retire every four years. U Ui meuuro bow iuuvquc^u should become a law. It Is confidently believed that the national banka will assume tbe current redemption In gold ootn of 91S0.0M.0M of United State# note#. In consideration of tbe obliga tion assumed by tbe national banks, they srill have the right during the succeeding five years, to Issue gradu ally. as busts ass may require, an amount of bank notes equal to M per centum of their paid-up and unim paired capital; prorlUoa being made •iso for aa emergency circulation. Aa the notes are taken out for circula tion tbe banks will deposit with the government a guarantee fund of I per centum of the amount of the notes so Issued.

Washington. Special.—Speaker Hen derson and nepceeenUllTe Cannon, of IUlnois, called a* the Whale House Wednesday. It waa relative to the mb ject of Cuban reciprocity and the call led to much eapeeutattve comment, al though no definite details were avail able oa the nature ot the conference. Active canvassing continued, prelimi nary to the third caucus oa Cuban re ciprocity to be held Thursday night The moat positive claims were made by those opposed to Representative Payne’s 10 per cent reciprocity plan, that there waa a dear majority against it Mr. Bayne end his associates did not concede this much and expressed the belied that a concession to Cuba would be ultimately granted. It waa mid la this connection that Speaker Henderson la now favorable to tbe po sition taken by the majority on the ways and means committee. During the day several members of the cabinet were called on by Messrs. Tawney fit the ways and mesne com mittee. who baa proposed to rebate plan as a sobstitute for Charlrman Payne's plan, sod Morris, of Minne sota. As aa outcome of these cans. It was stated that three members of the cabinet, namely, Postmaster General Payne, Secretary of the Treasury Shew sad Secretary of Agriculture Wltaoc, were hopeful of seeing a solution of lbs problem which would not endanger any American Industry. This wot con strued In some quarters to show a di vision tn the cabinet, but It was stated by those conversant with the situation that ths attitude of ths cabinet mem bers did not warrant any roch con struction. Later la the day. Representative Tawney called at the White House and bad a eonfareoce lasting nearly an boor aad a half with the President. It developed that Mr. Tawney had told the President that these eras little or no possibility for the adoption of ths Payne plea by the Republican confer ence and that If It eras adopted soma «0 Republican members would mot consid er themselves bound and would carry the question to the floor of the House, where there would be additional com plications owing to the attitude of the D«M>evitUs m•cabers. The President Is understood t^hwn made It dear that he had no Intention at present of sending a special m usage to Congrsaa on the subject The Presi dent expressed the most earnest solici tude that a satisfactory adjustment be reached by Congress After hearing from Mr. Tawney, his associates ex pressed the belief that the President would accept the rebate proposition If Congress would present It to him. They were considerably encouraged to hear from Mr. Tawney that the President was not laying down any emphatic ul timatum In favor of the plan as pre sented by Mr. Payne. While these conferences were going ou at the White Houee, Chairman Payne and members of the ways and means oommlttae supporting him were In conference. This brought about no ehanga tn thstr attitude. One of the members stated that he was confident that the Payne reciprocity proposition commanded a majority of the Republi can members, but that tlie minority eras so large and was so disposed to carry the oooteet Into the House that Mr. Payae aad hie friends recognised the seriousness of the situation. How ever, there was no disposition to ac cept the rebate plan, as It was stated that this waa merely a repetition of the pun proposed by the head.of the beet sugar organisation two months •go. _ ♦Hr* at Alicea, S.

Blxty-flfth Day—The Home began the consideration of the hill to classify the rural tree delivery service and Place the carriers under the contract system. Only two speeches were deliv ered. Mr. Loud, of California, chair man of the committee on postofllcee and pent roads, made the opening argu ment In favor ot tha bill, speaking for two and a half hours. Mr. 8wanaon, of Virginia, led the opposition. The de bate was Interrupted before the close ot the session by the presentation of the conference report upon the Philip pine tariff bill. Mr. Payne, the major ity leader, declined to allow the minor ity more than SO minutes la which to dtacuaa the report and thla offer was rejected by Mr. Richardson, the minor ity leader. A Allbueter followed and tbe House adjourned after the previous question upon the adoption of the re port bad been ordered. Mr. Loud, of California, began the debate on the rural free delivery bill. He declared that upon tbe solution of this question would depend whether the rural free delivery aervice would cost ultimately <60.000.000 or <20.000 000 per annum. The rural free delivery service up to this time, he said, bad been a political one and it bad given many members of Congress their first taste of the sweets of public patronage. He traced the history and rapid growth of tha service and Its cost, declaring that It waa the moat extravagant In the public service. At the Inception the the carriers received <200 per aannm. They now receive <600. If the salary system was continued they would even tually receive 1800 or $900. At the present time <860.000 waa being spent for the supervisory force. Mr. Loud charged that a promise had gone forth that If thi nrPROn ivitftm warn rnnt I ued th# members of Congress would control tbs appointment of the carrier* In the future a* they had in the past. Sixty-81xth -Day—The House con tinued ths debate on the bill to classify the rural free delivery ser vtc*. but without action adjourned earty. out of respect to the memory of Representative Polk, of Pennsyl vania, whose death occurred sudden ly at Philadelphia, last night. A com mittee of fifteen. Including Mr. Griggs, of Georgia, was appointed to attend the funeral of the deceased member. The conference report on tba pension appropriation bill was adopted. SENATE. Sixty-fifth Day—The Senate began the consideration of what Is popularly known as the shipping bill. Mr. Frye, chairman of the committee on com merce, made the opening statement In support of the bill. H# occupied the floor tor nearly two hours, reviewing the measure reported by the commit tee and dealing with questions which hare arisen in connection with its con sideration. Mr. Frys'» address was largely technical, but hie argument waa listened to with close attention by Sen ators on both side* of th* chamber It seamed to him, Mr. Frye stated, that the policy of protection had been vast ly beneficial to th* American people. The United Sts tea, he asserted had do peer Industrially. One Industry had been without protection—and without protection for SO years—and what sis ths logical result? The shipping Inter ests of the country had been neglected In the giving of protection. This coun try had permitted Its inferiors to jeixe upon the pathways of ocean commerce almost without a struggle. “It seems to me,” said Mr. Frye, “that that picture ought to humiliate and mortify beyond expression sny patriotic citizen of the United States who glories In the power and prosper ity of hts country. It Is not alone hu miliating—It Is absolutely dangerous.” Mr. Frye asked who was going to carry the $487,000,000 of exports In th* event of a war between German and 'Great Britain. “Why.” said he. "the farmers and the manufacturers and the wage-earners of ths United States would pay a penalty equal to that paid by either of the contending parties.1* Mr. Frye then sought to ahow that this condition of things wa* caused by American wages, which Increased th* cost of our ships for ths foreign trade at least 26 per cent. I lw Fry* declared that of all ateam ahlps In tha world or 14 knota and up ward. 80 par cant, are subsidized by tha countries whom flag* they carry. Of 1« knots and upward, ho said, all but six In tha world are heavily subsidised hr the countries whom flags they float. “Are we to aubmlt to thla humiliating, wretched condition of thlngar' aald Mr Frre. Tha nations paying these subsidies, he declared, did ao for the purpose of extending their trade and for nothing else. “Trade cannot precede the mall." aald ha. "The mall must precede the trade."
