DIRECTORS
E OFFER
OF THE PENNSYLVANIA TO TAKE
A. C. LT THOUGH OVERTURES
HAVE BEEN MADE
JUST A QUESTION OF TIME
Richmond, Va., Nov. 23. While the
directors of the Atlantic Coast Line
who met here on Tuesdav turnpd
down the proposition of the Pennsyl
vania read it is believed that jt is
only e question of time when the
Pennsylvania will acquire the A. C.
u. m order to afford a direct line
South for the develonm fint rtf Sou
thern business and the trade which
will pass through the Panama Canal.
Nearly every great railroad system
in the country now has its eye. on
the Panama Canal ai tho influence
it will exert upon future develop
ment and growth of business not on
ly for this continent but for Europe as
well, since much of the European
business must pass through the qanal.
Mr, Henry Walters who owns a
controlling interest in the Coast Line
desires to lay aside his active busi
ness pursuits because of advancing
years and convert his holdings into
cash. He defers, however, to his
business associates of a life time
who feel that the offer of the Penn
sylvania is not what it should be and
this is what is holding up the deal.
The Pennsylvania owns a large in
terest in the Coast Line and seeks
a controlling interest.

REFUS
FINANCES OF
E COUNTRY
DISCUSSED BY PROMINENT MEN
FAMILIAR WITH BANKING
ALBRICH PLAN ENDORSED
MR. BHOWN'S ADDRESS
New Orleans," Nov, 23, Finance has
been ably dis.ussed at the Bankers
convention here this week and it
seems theae is an evident desire on
the part of the members to pull this
country out of the rut whenever
public confidence is disturbed and
the people panic stricken withdraw
their funds irom the moneyed insti
tutions. '
There is an impression prevailing
among many that if the government
would inaugurate some scheme to
maintain the confidence of the peo
ple by guaranteeing their deposits
this plan would even prove more ef
fective than the Aldrich plan, since
it a recognized fact that panics are
brought about by the withdrawal of
deposits, which prevent the bankers
from maintaining their reserves at
crucial moments. This effort to main
tain their reserves in face of the
withdrawal of deposits brings about
a fight for life, which results in a
death struggle "when the bankers
should be coming to the assistance
of one another. Again this protec
tion of the deposits will prevent the
manipulation of the finances by
Wall street who control xlarge sums
of money and desiring to scoop a
competitor as was done when the
Steel trust absorbed Va. Tenn. Coal
and Iron, will be rendered impossi
ble. If " the depositors had felt pro
tected, it .would have been impossi
ble to have brought about the panic
of 1907. '
The address of Mr. Joseph G.
Brown of Raleigh, has attracted
much attention.-He plead for the far
mer ..sinSfcA prosperity of v the . f ar
mer is the backbone of the resources
of the nation. He showed that the
finances of the nation should be so
elastic that when the crops begin to
move there should be ample money to
move them, and that the old time
methods of finance must give way to
modern methods of expansion in the
development of the business of the
greatest nation on earth. '
There were other speakers who
called attention to the difference be
tween the monetary systems obtain
ing abroad and in this country, how
that by their , system when money
became tight in certain sections of the
strong European nations it was sent
to this locality to ease up matters.
This is the plan of the Aldrich mone
tary commission With the most pros
perous country in the world the cir
culation should be arranged so that
the -money, the commercial life blood
may be sent instantly where it is re
quired, and that every bank in the
nation on a sound business basis may
be amply supplied with funds to. dis
charge its obligations to its people.

regards Americans is serious. It has
developed that the plot which result

political malcontents of anti-American
sympathies. News from Washing

led the bitterness " against ; American
residents.
The cabinet is doing its utmost to
