night session. They did not come, how
ever, and bailiffs were sent out after
them, and they will be examined on Mon
day morning. BY agreement between Sem
ator carter and the attorneys for Judge
Reese, these witnesses will be examined
by the committee without the presence
of the counsel. One of these witnesses is
Mrs. WEIGH, the lady who, it is said, was
present In the dining room at Daniels
Vile when Judge Reese cursed about Tom
Watson.
Taken as a whole, to-days developments
go to confirm the prediction made last
night that the evidence will not warrant
the impeachment of either Judges Reese
or Sweat.
On Monday the committee will com
mence the preparation of its report, ana
finish 1t up as quickly as possible, in r.
der that the whole matter may be gotten
off their hands, ready to be received by
the legislature when 1t meets next month.
The investigation has been completed In
much less time than was expected at
first, the opinion then being that it would
barely be completed before the meeting OF
the legislature This rapid work by the
committee, which has been accomplished
without prejudice to either side, either
keeping back the full truth, or hindering
the defense, will save the state consider

man Fielder estimates, will not have cost
over 5000 or $1,000, while at the begin
ming the prospect was that $4,000 would
hardly more than foot the bills.

Of their views, the general arbitration
treaty just signed by Great Britain and

The centrist and Frelssinnige newspapers
concur In acclaimlng the treaty as offer
ing the very best solution of the question
how to escape from the system of military
ism which is now draining the life blood
of Europe and advocate similar action on
the part Of the continental powers. The
leading centrist organ, the Germania, pre-
diets that the conclusion Of the Anglo
American treaty VIII influence the party
Of the centre, which Is now the strongest
party in the Reichstag, in dealing with the
demands Of the imperial government for
a large increase In the army estimates for
the purpose of augmenting the artillery
and other branches of the military service.
Pursuing the subject the paper asks why
this momentous event-the signing of the
treaty-cementing peace between 10000,
600 of people ought not to lead TO similar
understandings between other countries.
The Frankfurter Zeitung Is also en-
thuslastc over the treaty, which, it says.
will encourage the friends Of peace in
Germany to exert their energies toward a
general reduction of the ornaments OF
Europe and settle all future disputes by
means Of arbitration, instead Of a resort
to arms.

UNCLE SANS CTRRENoY PROBLEM.
Three Bankers Appear Before the
House Committee

Washington, Jan. 16.-The House com
mittee on banking and currency gave
hearings to-day to r. A. Lancaster, q
banker and broker of Richmond, Va; G.
Bradford of Boston and r. B. Ferris. vice
president of the Bank of New York, all
of whom had suggestions to make con-
corning the solution of the currency prob,
lem.
Mr.. Lancaster made a brief statement Of
his views. but did not present any def
mite plan in the form of a bill to change
the existing law.
Mr.. Ferris advocated the passage of a
bill which he explained was chilly drawn
by himself. and had been introduced by
Mr.. Mcclellan of New York Mr.. Ferris
said his plan was not a new system, but
was amendatory of the present national
banking act. Among other features. the
controller of the currency should be au-
thorized to issue notes to banks up to the
par value of their bonds. To provide for
the redemption of the notes issued under
this act, the Secretary of the Treasury
should be authorized to create redemption
districts, each bank In such a district "a
select a bank in the central city Of such re-
demption district to act as its redemption
agent and to be required to keep with this
redemption agent deposit equal TO 5 pei
cent. OF It's outstanding circulation.
Mr.. Ferris also argued in favor Of per
hitting banks of large capital to establish
branches in their various redemption dis
tricts, for which provision was made In
the bill.
Mr. Bradford prefaeed his remarks by
saying that his banking experience be-
gan in 1851, and that he had been familiar
in actual practice with the Suffolk system
and the old state bank system. For thirty
years he had devoted himself to the study
of various problems concerning the ma.
tional finances He asked how the peo-
pie Of the United States could be blamed
for going astray on the financial question
when the United States Senate set the
example in insisting upon the free coin
age OF silver and government bonds were
sold under conditions recently existing.
1t would not do, he said, to retire the
greenbacks without providing something
to take their place, else a panic might
come, and the people would demand that
the retirement be stopped as had been
done before
Mr.. Bradford criticised the Indianapolis
convention for taking no effective steps
toward the solution of the currency ques-
ton. He wanted the Secretary of the
Treasury to come before congress and tell
what he wanted In the line Of currency
legislation. He thought this was the only
way to make any progress.
