THE GOLD WITHDRAWALS

the officials,

WASHINGTON, Jan, % The meet
ing of the Senate committee on fl
nance was held but was entirely
devoid Of results, but promises we've
made that bin would be prepared
for consideration in the dim future.
The Republican members made the
point early in the proceedings that
talk was of comparatively little val
ne as long as there was no legsld'
tive proposition before them that
even the majority of the committee
of the majority party would consent
to accept, The force Of this sug
Eest!on was admitted by the Demo
cratic members, but they explained
that they considered it waste OF
time to formulate a bill until there
should be some comparison Of notes
among all the committee members
and an intimation on the part OF
the Republicans as well as OF the
Democrats as to what they would
agree to, To this il was replied
that the Republicans felt that the
responsibility did not rest with
them, but with the majority party
The committee was informed dur
ing the meeting that Senator Vest
had had a bill in contemplation, and
there was a partial promise that 1t
would be completed in time to be
introduced in the Senate in time to
permit its being printed for the use
of the committee In a few days IT
is understood that any bill that may
be introduced at this time will be
tentative, and that It's principal
purpose Will be to afford the COM
mittee base Of discussion
There was also medicinal reference

WASHINGTON NEWS.
Two New Financial Measures Intro
duced in the Senate.

duced in the Senate,
WASHINGTON, January %, In the
Senate today new and practical
turn to the Hawaiian subject was
given by Mr.. Hale, (Rep., Me- who
introduced an amendment to the
diplomatic and consular bill provid-
ing $500, 900 for the survey of a ca
bic route connecting the Hawaiian
Islands and the United States, Mr..
Smith Dem, N, J) then had a bill
read which attracted much atten-
ton, 1t provides for a non partisan
currency commission Of twelve mem
bers to make Investigations Of fiscal
questions and for an issue Of bonds
to produce revenues for the govern
ment. Senator Smiths currency
bill provides that the President shall
appoint four commissioners from
civil lite, no more than two of whom
Shall be members of the same polit-
ical party. The President of the
Senate shall appoint four Senators,
no more than two Of whom shall be
from the same party. The Speaker
Of the House is to designate four
members under the same conditions,
The Senators and members chosen
are to be members of the Fifty
fourth Congress These are to be
known as the Monetary Commits
sion.
Mr. Stewart pop New followed
MIR. Smith with an argument
against any commissions or other
means of avoiding direct action on
the currency. Mr. Stewart had
read an article from the Cincinnati
Enquirer addressed directly to the
secretary Of the treasury and ar
raigning him for preferring gold to
silver. Mr., Jones Dem. Ark add
ed to the interest of the currency
question by presenting a bill which
had been discussed in the Finance
Committee. ltsreading was follow
ed with close attention owing to
the prominence of the Senator in
shaping the finance committee work
Mr.. Jones addressed the Senate
briefly concerning the currency bill
be had submitted, Mr., Jones spoke
Of the constant danger in the pres
ent plan of issuing bonds which per
mitted the banks to force an issue,
then to take gold from the treas
ury in order to pay for the bonds
and thus keep up this constant as
sauit on the gold reserve and the
Constant necessity for bonds.
~ am not a believer IN bonds"
declared Mr. Jones, "but ! am will
ling to submit to bonds as 4 matter
of necessity as long as there is
coupled with 1t a sensible, manly,
honest recognition Of silver If the
feeling throughout the country in
favor Of silver is promptly recogniz-
ed, then viii agree to the issue Of
bonds and | will agree to it under
no other conditions
Mr. Jones said it was his convic-
tion that The silver men would make
a grave mistake II they insisted on
the extreme limit Of their hopes,
The failure Of The silver element
TO secure concerted action was
made evident as soon as Mr., Joaes
closed his remarks, as Mr. Stewart
again took the nosr to argue
against the Jones bill, He conced-
ed the good motives Of the Senator
but urged that the bond provision

suit of Elizabeth Morrow widow of
William Morrow, one of Weyerhorst's
patients who wandered from his hos
pital one night last winter and died in
the street while in a delirium. wey-
erhorst denies in italics the allegation
that he ever pretended" to be a regu-
larly licensed and duly qualified prac-
toner of medicine and surgery. but
alleges that he is and has for a long
time been a regularly licensed and
qualified physician and surgeon. He
denies that he made a request that
William Morrow be removed from his
home at Basin to the defendants hos
pital In Butte. but alleges that he came
of his own free will. The defendant
denies that he administered to Morrow
some powerful drug which resulted in
him becoming insane and unable to
care for himself and denies that he
was insane or that he was abandoned
by the defendant and through the lat
ter's neglect and misconduct died.
Weyerhorst alleges that while Morrow
was in his right mind and without the
knowledge and consent of the defend
ant he arose from his bed and dressed
and left the hospital and while absent
therefrom died and the defendant in
