FINANCIAL PROBLEMS.
Solutions Suggested at the Chicsgo Conn
merciaI Clubs Meeting.


mereiai Clubs Meeting.
CHICAGO, Oct. 27.-The one hundred
and twentieth meeting OF the Conmer-
cial club. which includes the leading
business men of Chicago. was held to-
night ct the Grand Pacific hotel. The
occasion was marked by the discussions
OF financial problems and suggestions
for the solution OF the currency question
by some OF the most eminent fnanciers
and political economists in the country.
Arguments were made on the silver
question the defects OF the currency
were pointed out and suggestions made
for their practical relief.
William T. Baker, president OF the
club, presided and introduced Prof. J. l..
Laughlin Of the Chicago university, who
spoke on the character of American cur
rency.
Following Prof. Laughlin came Ly-
man ]. Gage, president OF the First Ma
tional bank of Chicago, who spoke on
the American money system. After
Gage had resumed his seat President
Baker, in happy speech. called upon
A. Hepburn, ex-comptroller OF the
United States, and now the president OF
the Third National bank OF New York,
who took for his subject the necessity
for new currency law. In the course
of his speech Mr.. Hepburn took excep-
tion to the plan OF placing the railroads
and the telegraph system throughout
the country under government control
He declared against free coinage, and
paid his respects to "wild cat" currency
in a most vigorous manner. He urged
upon the business men OF the country
that they do not leave the subject OF
currency and the financial condition OF
the country to the politician and dema-
gogue, but take held of it themselves in
such q manner that the country will be
certain of an outcome such aa the con-
ditions demand.
After Mr.. Hepburn, came Hon. J.
Eckels, comptroller OF the currency,
who spoke on the National Currency.
He said he had not prepared q speech
and would content himself with few
extemporNneous suggestions ss to what
might be done in political way. He
said our currency system 40 it now OK.
ists, is sadly deficient. There has not
been introduced in either shouse within
the memory of most of those present at
the meeting, single law upon the cur
rency question, but that has had for it's
aim the creation OF large volume Of
currency. Guided by this, and listsn-
ing to the utterings OF the advocates Of
such policy, We find the people losing
sight OF the fact that the volume of the
currency is OF the least Importance, but
what works for the public good in the
currency of the country ia the sound-
ness thereof. A large volume OF cur
rency lacking in soundneas Ia always q
source OF public evil.
The club, said Mr.. Eckels, cannot un-
dertake better work than to educate
the people by spoken words and written
documents with all the resources at
their command in sound monetary prin-
ciples.
AT the conclusion OF Mr.. Eckela' re-
marks resolution was adopted favoring
the creation of national commission,
neutral in politics, to thoroughly study
the present monetary system of the
country, with view to its aimpliioa-
tion.
II WAS nearly midnight when the
meeting adjourned.

Father O'Keefe gave a short history OF
the mission, and Ex-Governor Murray
closed the speechmaking by delivering
q short but inspiring address.
For the remainder of the afternoon
each guest was accorded full liberty to do
what he liked best. Some went walk
ing through the adjoining grove, others
lay about on the grass under the giant
sycamores. but the larger number ad-
lourned to the large vefsndah of Don
Forster's home where dancing was kept
up to the strains OF the band until after
O'Clock when q return was made to the
depot.
The entire population having welcom.
ed the coming, speeded the parting
guests with all the honors, and in SO
doing ended not only On enjoyable day
but one that marks an epoch in the his

were curiously inspected by the ladies.
The material in many OF them WAS pur-
chased in the old time from the Russian
traders. who, at rare intervals, had
communication with the fathers.
Others, again, were brought by
tedious overland journeys from
Mexico. But the most interesting relics
were the old records OF the missions.
Leather bound tones, inscribed with
minutest care. some in Latin and others
in Spanish. Births, marriages and
deaths are recorded in different volumes,
but by far the most interesting is the
volume which on its first page presents
to the gaze OF the oniooker that name
thst will ever be honored in California

with the date 1776 Immediately follow
ing.
In the old time archives may be found
recorded, too, the account OF that earth
quake which destroyed in3U seconds what
it had taken 80 years to accomplish. When
the roof fell in one December morning
in 1912 and killed AZ worshipers, the
partial destruction wae regarded as a
hideous calamity, but it, nevertheless,
did not discourage the mission fathers
in their labor OF love.
BRIEF HISTORY OF SAN JUAN.
1t was the Padre Gorgonio who on
the lst of November, 1776 selected the
site for the mission of San Juan Cap
istrano. 1t was just 22years before the
founding of San Luis Rey, and the
good padre intended to build church
larger and in every way more preten-
tious than any that had hitherto been
erected. The name perpetu ates the
memoryofa Franciscan frisr born at Can.
