DON'T LIKE THE LAW.
Agents OF Atlantic Steamers Fearful That
immigration Will Be Restricted.

Washington, Feb. 1.-Senator Lodge
says, regarding the opposition of Allan
tic steamship lines to the new immigra-
tion law:
Since receiving a copy Of the telegram
which Claussenius d Co. were sending
out to affect votes on the immigration
bill and which gave to the press, there
has been sent me a copy of the circular
which this same firm have been sending
out through the mails. AS they stated in
an interview that they were sending
out their kilograms only in their indi-
vidual capacity. it will be Interesting
to obesrve that this circular, is ad-
dressed TO agents, who, ! suppose were
also to act in their individual capacity,
and not as agents of the North German
Lloyd Steamship company. The circu-
lar. in full. is as follows:
Chicago, Ills. Jan. 25th, 1897.
To Agents: The immigration bill
which IL intended to materially restrict
Immigration. comes up for final dispo-
sition in the house of representatives
Washington, ID. c., on Wednesday, eth
instant.
II Is quite clear that immigration will
really be restricted almost to the ex-
tent Of total exclusion of immigrants
should the bill become law, and every
effort should, therefore. be made to in
sure the defeat OF the bill.
You are indirectly interested in the
defeat Of the bill as much as we are,
and We would respectfully ask you to
wire your representative i'm congress i'm
mediately upon receipt of this note to
vote against the bill, informing him that
the measure virtually means exclusion,
and that his vote i'm favor Of same will
r,esn repudiation by his constituents
and his defeat at the next election.
Trusting that you will not fail to give
this matter your prompt attention, We
are, Yours respectfully.
II. Claussenus & Co.
Enclosed was little slip in red type
as follows:
Wire your representative fully, and
let US know cost of telegram, and we
VIII promptly refund To you"
j think il very desirable that the at
tention Of congress, of the press and Of
the public should be drawn to this
attempt on the part of agents of for
eiSn corporation 20 defeat a measure
cf great public importance, in which
the people of the United States are pro-
foundly interested.

Incoming Secretary Of Treasury Talks OF
Our Financial System.

New York. Feb. IA special to The
World from Chicago says:
In an interview, Lyman j. Gage, re-
ferring to the monetary question. said:
I'm my own opinion, the greenbacks
should be permanently retired. The
silver purchased under the Sherman act
should be gradually sold and the treas
ury notes redeemed and cancelled. Some
well-guarded system of bank note circu.
lation, broader and more elastic than
the present national bank act provides
should be inaugurated.
"Such bank notes should be redeemed
at a central place, and be redeemed IN
gold only.

Iy one-fifth of the circulating medium OF
the United States. are dangerous. BY
their use. a volume of inferior money
has found an abnormal use. They are
the most perplexing feature in the
much-involved problem of our national
finances.
There is no reason why the govern.
ment should act as warehouseman TO,
either gold or silver. Such a function IL
outside its proper limit of action.
But we are faced by a condition The
ver represented by 1898, 900. 900 in silver
certificates, added to the $50, 900, 900 pur.
chased by the government under the
Sherman act, constitutes a standing
mena@'e to every business interest.
ITO sum up. the defects of our pres
ent currency system are:

needs simplification.

'3. The treasury note is a standine
evidence Of foolish operation-the
creation OF debt for the purchase on q
falling market of a commodity for which
the purchaser has no use: il lies open
TO the just charge of being both idiotio

There is reason to hope that it would

Such a commission, IL rightly elected
would throw a flood OF light upon these
involved questions. The information IL
might gather would be of immense value
to all our people and would guide us IL
