NO DISCOUNT ALLOWED.
Canada's Chartered Banks Must
Accept Each Others Notes.

OTTAWA, Ont, Jan. 24.-At meet
ing of Conservative members of the
house of commons to-day the ministers
made some announcements with respect
to prospective changes in the banking
laws which it is proposed to introduce
and which will be discussed with a
deputation of leading bankers to-mor-
row. Sir John Macdonald told his sup
pOrters that the government intended
to insert clause in the proposed new
banking act requiring. all chartered
banks doing business in Canada to ac-
cept without discount notes is
sued by other Canadian chartered
banks. He also said that if the bankers
were not willing to accept this PROPOSE
ton then the government would have
to consider the propriety of establish
ing national currency for Canada.
Bankers strongly object to the govern
ment's proposal. but, it is thought, will
probably accept it, provided that addi-
tional precautions are taken to guard
against the Overissuing of notes by
small banks,

WASHINGTON. Jan. 24.-The Demo-
cratic members of the house were in
caucus for two hours tonight with Mr..
Holman, of Indiana, in the chair. The
subject under discussion was the new
code of rules now in course of prepara-
tion by the committee on rules. Briefly
stated, those that were instanced by
Mr.. Carlisle as being partic ularly
Objectionable to the Democratic mi
nority are the rules that do away with
the old house calendar, leaving only the
calendars of the committee of the whole
and the state of the Union; that make
100 a quorum Of the committee of the
whole: that re-establish the old
morning hour rule when business
must be considered in the order
of the committee list and bills must be
regarded as pending until disposed Of,
and that fail to make privileged the mo-
ton to adjourn to fixed day, or take a
recess. There was a long discussion
over these proposed changes, which
failed to result in the advancement of
any practicable scheme for the amelior-
alton OF the repugnant features of the
new rules. Then
LIE SON tSIIClION GASES
were talked over, and Mr.. Crisp told of
the purpose of the Republicans to call
up the first of the West Virginia cases.
It was generally agreed that the inten-
ton of the Republicans is to unseat as
many Democrats and seat as many Re-
publicans as will give them fair work
ing majority and insure aquorum in Or
der to force through the rules. Although
10 formal resolution was adopted, it was
matter of understanding among the
Democratic members when the caucus
adjourned that this Republican plan
should be resisted to the utmost and
that the minority should exercise all of
its constitutional rights to prevent its
success. In other words, the determlna-
tion is to fight the rules legitimately
when obnoxious sections are reached,
and to refrain from voting and leave the
house without quorum if an attempt
is made to unseat Democratic members
before the rules are adopted.

HELENA. Mont, Jan. 24.-Marshal Ir-
vim, who has charge of the state peni-
tentiary at Deer Lodge, says that un-
less legislative action to provide an ap-
preparation for the penitentiary is soon
taken the situation will become very
serious. The penitentiary. which was
given by the national government to
the state, can comfortably accommodate
IA cOnyicts. There are now LA con-
victs in the institution and in weak log
structures on the grounds. They are
guarded by fourteen men. The prison.
erS confined In the log buildings are
only partially confined. Ordinary pad
locks are used to close the doors, as
there is nothing more available,
and the construction Of the build
ings is most alarmingly weak. If
revolt occurred the consequences
would be very serious, but this is not
the worst of the situation. The num-
Der of convicts is increased daily. In
stead of holding convicted criminals
back until the end of the terms of dis
trict courts, as was formerly done, they
are being forwarded to the penitentiary
as soon as convicted. The marshal es-
Inmates that the number of
CoNvICTS IN THE PENITENTIARY
will be increased to $50 within sixty
days. There is not dollar available to
provide further quarters. The marshal
has enough money to feed his striped
flock. but there is no money on hand
that can be used for any other purpose.
He is, in addition, deprived of the an
nuai government appropriation of
S2,500. The only way by which proper
and safe accommodation for the con-
victs can be secured is through an ap-
preparation by the legislature. The
marshal, Gov. Toole and the speakers of
the two houses of representatives had a
conference to-day on the subject. The
seriousness of the situation and the
danger to which the citizens of Deer
Lodge are exposed was dwelt upon, and
all the conferees save the speaker of
the Democratic house agreed to use
their best endeavOrS to bring the two
houses together on the basis that a
committee of three from each party
should select such bills for immediate
enactment as the necessities of the sit
uation required, the first to be one ap-
prOprlating mon ey for the penitentiary.
The Democratic speaker, while not act
lively opposed to the plan, asked for
further time in which to consider the
matter.

HaFaInOuFs
Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, Man., Jan. PA sensa-
tional dispatch was sent out from Bis
marck recently regarding rancher
uamed Attrell living near there having
been found at Portage La Prairie vio-
lently insane, pennyless and his clothes
missing. A Portage La Prairie hotel
keeper in dispatch to the Free Press
gives the following as the facts of the
case: On Nov. II Alfred Taylor. a
former resident of Portage Lapralrie,
registered at the Leland house there.
Shortly after his arrival he showed
signs of mental arrangement and his
brother-in-law in Iowa was commun-
icated with, but no answer was received.
Taylor mad given his legal advisers the
address of his cousin and she was COM
municated with and subsequently ar
rived. This so-called cousin turned
out to be married woman who had
left her husband and eloped with Tay-
loa about seven years ago. This wom-
an locked Taylor in his room and never
allowed him to come down slairs to his
meals. The husband OF TaylOr's
cousin having heard of his wife'S pres
ence at the portage. put in an appear
ance. but she and her charge took a
hurried departure. The proprietor of
the Leland house denies the whole
story of ill usage. and adds: at might
be interesting to Bismarck people to
know that Mrs. Taylor, alias Attrell,
induced Mr.. Taylor to make will be-
fore leaving in which all his property
is bequeathed to her."

GUTHRIE, l. T., Jan.-The claim
jumping craze is prevalent here again.
In most cases violence is not resorted

a conflict. Robert Hamil. who unJustIy
claimed lot in the heart of the city,
was elected by the authorities, and both
Hamil and the authorities had their sup
porters and conflict was imminent
when Capt. Cavanaugh, commanding
the United States troops stationed
here, dispersed the mob with company
of infantry.
