SECURITY FOR THE NOTES.

In reply to a question by Mr. Hail. Of Missouri
as To which plan--the Baltimore plan or the Car
Isle plan-would give the best security for the
redemption OF the notes OF failed banks. the Sec
retary replied that the security would be the
same as far as the safety fund was concerned
that his plan also provided for guarantee de-
posit of 80 per cent Of the capital Of each bank.
which would be cvailable for redemption pur-
poses. and that under the Baltimore plan tne
Government would be liable for any defcit, while
under his own plan the solvent banks would
have to make good any deficit and depend tor re-
imbursement upon the assets OF me falled panK
or hanks Mr. Johnson called attention 10
sta tement made by some OF the advocates OF tne
baltimore plan which showed that the totai
amount paid In taxes on circulation by Nationa!
banks since the inception of the system would
have been sufficient 10 redeem all the notes OF
failed banks and would have left balance OF
SIS 900 600 The Secretary replied that II tne law
had not required the deposit OF United states
bonds to secure payment Of the notes the result
might have been different, and he did not regard
the argument as worthy Of much consideration.
He argued that the present system OF currens
redemption of National bank notes Is wrong ana
ought TO be reformed. Under its operations only
60 10 70 per cent of the redemption fund Is actu'
ally in the Treasury.

adjunct in war time have been tshs1 by
he exhaustive trials made in Germany,
France and Austria of the bicycle corps.
United States Consul Stephens at Anna
berg has transmitted TO the State Depart
ment an article from the military CORE
spOndenr upon the result of trials made in
Germany, which. he says, correspond to
those obtained in France and Aus rla."
He says:
1--WE had on ustworthy authority the
fact that tie results of the trials which the
various army corps have made with the
cyclists By 10 means come up to the ex-
pectations which were formed. The
cyclists have been tested in every possible
way. and although it is not forgotten that
the cycle is capable of further develop
ment, and the cyclist of still better train
ing, still this will have little influence on
the general result. For military purposes,
toe, a distinction must always be made
between the achievement of professional
and amaieu cracks and the work that can
be done by the average soldier"
The correspondent details one or two
cases wherein the cyclists were of service
the roads are bad they were of no use at
all, and certainly can never replace the
mounted orderly.
