CURRENCY REFORM.
1T IS BELIEVED THAT M'KINLEY
WILL PRESS 1T.
Bill Passed By the House on the Last
Day Is Dead, and Will Not Be
Further Pushed-Baltimore Plan
Probable.

Chicago. July 2S.-A special to the
Times-Herald from Washington says:
Mckinley is determined to secure cur
rency reform legislation. To this end
he will have the active cooperation of
Secretary Gage. The currency COM
mission bill passed by the house of
representatives on the last day of the
session is dead, and it is likely the pres
ident will not further press it. 1t is now
planned that an administration plan
shall be formulated during the summer
and autumn and submitted to congress
when it convenes in December. BY the
time Secretary Gage submits his first
annual report to congress next Decem-
Der he will in all probability have a
plan formulated which may be sub
mitted as the administration scheme Of
currency reform.
That part dealing with the banking
system will aim to provide safe and
elastic bank currency, and it may en-
brace some of the features of the
Canadian system or what is known as
the Baltimore plan which was so gen
orally recommended by bankers when
II was devised. 1t is expected some
provision will also be framed to prevent
the use of greenbacks as an endless
chain for the depletion of the treasury.

RIcHFIELD WATER CASE.
State Engineer Young Testifes Con-
corning the Flow.

corning CnS FLOW.
Richfield, July 27.-Au who were in
terested in the suit between Lawyers
Gideon Snyder and j. 3. Jennings ex-
pected the decision in that case today,
but it went over fer { few days. The
court attended to a little work and then
began the trial of the suit of the city
of Richfeld vs.. Bean, Clark & Laurit-
zen. This case has often been men
tened in the papers. The city claims
that its water flow has been dimin-
ished by the development of springs by
the defendants. Stewart & Collins and
S. r. Thurman appeared for the city
and J. B. Jennings for the defendant
firm.
An amusing incident occurred when
Attorney J. B. Jennings was cross-ex-
aiming Mr.. Peterson concerning some
measurements the witness had made.
You figured to make the measure
ments a success, didn't you?" asked
Jennings.
7 figured to get it right" replied the
witty banker You see a man has a
reputation be can't afford to lose
The lawyer tried to interDose a re-
mark but the witness emphasized the
pronouns as he said. and my repu
tation is worth something to me-"
The tears came to his honor's eyes
as the spectators and members of the
bar laughed, and he tried TO choke it
back. Only three in the court room
didn't join in. They were the witness,
the busy court reporter and the beaten
attorney.
When state Engineer Willard Young
was called to the witness stand ne ex-
planned the way such springs as the
one now owned by the municipality
was formed. explaining formations and
subterranean channels at length. He
had measured the city spring in April
of this year. and again yesterday. He
gave the results thus:
In April. when the city had all the
water, the water was 654 inches deep
on q weir, 80 inches wide, a total flow
In cubic feet of 1928 per minute. Yes
terday he found the city spring run
ming 1928 feet in the same time. while
the Bean spring was running 13416.
The witness was cross-eXamined at
great length by Jennings. but the state
engineer got rather the best of the en-
counter.
o. r. Young and Bob Forester are
here as experts n the employ of Bean
Clark and Lauritzen. The case may
take two days yet.
