sition Of dictator, and with the Taotai
Wu and the commander of the forces at
Port Arthur.
Gen. Ii Hung Chang, who is declared
to be the prime mover in the alleged con-
spiracy against his own country, was
born in the Anu-Iuel province of China
on Feb. Is, 1923. In 1860 he co-operated
with General then Colonel Gordon in
suppressing the Tneping rebellion, being
then Governor Of the Thiang-Sin PROV
ince The other Thiang province being
added TO his rule, he was created NicerOy
Of the united countries in May, 1865. The
following year he was appointed Minister
Plcnipotentiary, and in 1867 Viceroy Of
Hong Kuang, and n grand chancellor in
1868. After the Tien-Tsin massacre in
1870. he was despoiled of his titles and
otherwise punished on the charge of not
assisting the general in command. but
in 1872 the then Emperor restored him
to favor and offered him the Office of
Grand Chancellor. He was the mediator
for fixing the indemnity for the murder
of Mr.. Margary, who was killed, in
1876. while endcavorinG to explore south
western China. Then he was appointed
Niceroy of the metropolitan provinces Of
Pc-Chih-Ii. and as such has been the
administrator of the Chinese empire. He
has been regarded as n man of liberal
views, and has permitted coal-mining and
coast steamer traffic to be carried on by
English companies, and it has been
thought that he would be favorable even
to the building Of railways.

ing for the issue Of circulating notes by
State banks, free from taxation under
certain limitations.
The Secretary explains his plans so
plainly and its advantages are developed
by him with such remarkable clearness
that any effort on my part TO present ar
gument in its support would be superfiu-
Gus. L shall, therefore, content myself
with an unqualified Endorsement of the
Secretary's proposed changes in the law
and brief and imperfect statement of
their prominent features.
1t is proposed TO repeal all laws pro-
viding for the deposit of United States
bonds as security for circulation; to per-
NIT national banks to issue circulating
notes not exceeding in amount 10 per
cent. of their paid-up and unimpaired
capital, provided they deposit with the
Government, as guarantee fund, in
United States legal tender notes, in
Guiding Treasury notes of 1890, a sum
notes they desire to issue, this deposit
equal in amount TO 30 per cent. of the
to be maintained at all times, but when
ever any bank retires any part of it's
circulation proportional part of its qua
ranty fund shall be returned to it,; TO per-
NIT the Secretary of the Treasury to pre-
pare and keep on hand ready for issue in
case IN increase in circulation Is desired
blank national bank notes for each bank
having circulation and TO repeal the pro-
visions of the present law imposing lin
itations and restrictions upon banks de-
string TO reduce or increase their circula-
tion-thus permitting such increase or
reduction within the limit Of 75 per cent.
of capital to be quickly made as emer-
gencies arise.
In addition to the guarantee fund re-
quired, il is proposed to provide safety
fund for the immediate redemption of the
circulating notes of failed banks by inn
posing a small annual tax, say one-half of
i per cent. upon the average circulation
Of each bank until the fund amount TO
per cent. of the total circulation outstand-
ing. When n bank fails its guarantee
fund is TO be paid into this safety fund
and It's notes are to be redeemed In the
first instance from such safety fund thus
augmented-any impairment of such fund
caused thereby to be made good from the
Immediately available cash assets of said
bank, and if these should be insufficient
such impairment to be made good by pro-
rata assessment among the other banks,
their contributions constituting n first lien
upon assets of the failed bank in favor of
the contributing banks.
1t is quite likely that this scheme may
be usefully amended in some Of its de-
tails; but | am satisfied il furnishes
basis for very great Improvement in
our present banking and currency system.
conclude this communication fully APP
preciating that the responsibility for all
legislation affecting the people of the
United States rests upon their represen-
tatives in the Congress, and assuring
them that whether in accordance with
recommendations have made or not, l
shall be glad TO cooperate in perfecting
any legislation that tends to the prosper
ity and welfare of our country.

Great Viceroy.
Plotted Against the Empire.

His majesty the Emperor Of China has
been memorialized by over one hundred
of the highest officials in his empire for
the impeachment Of General Ii Hung
Chang. Advices from Shanghai say the
important memorial has caused a pro-
found sensation. The disgraced prime
minister is charged with corruption, pecu-
lation and deception. The memorial also
declares that Ii Hung Chang has openly
rejoiced at the successive important VIC
tories by land and sea of the country's
enemies, the japanese, and that by his de-
liberate action he virtually prevented the
Chinese from achieving success. The
prime minister is said by the memorial to
have represented that China was fully
equipped and well prepared for war when
he was well aware of the fact that the
country was lily able to contend against
the forces of Japan.
1t is further charged that he has been
implicated with Prince Kung, the uncle

great length, but touches upon many
Important points in national policy.

authorization of short-term bonds at

national currency system. In addition
he calls attention to salient points in the
reports of the members of his Cabinet
and especially indorses many of their
recommendations. The President says:

football which both Yale and Princeton
have exhibited in years past. The game
itself, however, was totally different
from the recent Yale Harvard smuggling
match and was played from the start to
the finish without display of temper or
a show of blood. Just rs long as the
game can be played In this way it will
remain the most popular of college sports.
The Western football season just clos
cd suggests very strongly the organiZa-
ton of n Western Collegiate Football
League. For the last few seasons GER
tain college teams have clearly excelled
all their Western rivals. and it is the
opinion of many Western college men
alumni among the number-that n league
should be organized. This seasons work
has shown that Wisconsin,, Michigan,
Minnesota, Purdue University of Chica-
60 and University of Illinois excel the
other Western colleges at the kicking
game, just as they have done for several
years If these six institutions should es-
tablish a league it would undoubtedly
greatly improve the game in the West.
With n six-college league, all the men,
bers Of which had comparatively strong
teams, schedule of games could be ar
ranged in which there would be almost
as much interest as now IL shown in the
great games East. A point in favor of
the league suggested is that four Of the
colleges are located in large towns, where
big attendance at games would be GER
tainty. The exceptions are the universe
ties of Michigan and Illinois, yet while
Ann Arbor and Champaign are not large
places they would doubtless turn out well
to games of Importance, and the attend
ance Of the students alone would be no
inconsiderable figure. Lafayette is
thorough football town and games with
Purdue would always be financial sue
cess. Almost the same can be said of
Madison and the Wisconsin team.
