weather excellent and service on
the Germanic could not have been
better. 1t was living on the fat of
the land while enjoying the cool
breezes of the ocean, which gave
ne an appetite that rapidly depleted
the Germanic's supply OF good
things. The scrupulous cleanliness
of everything on the White Star
line, together with the strict dis
cipline and polite attention inspires
everyone with feeling of pleasure
and security that is in contrast with
some other lines. The commando

He was decorated and promoted
for bravery in rescuing a drowning

THE CURRENCY REPORT.

The abstract of the report of the con-
troller of the currency, which is printed
this morning, contains much interesting in
formation regarding our currency and the
working of the national banks. The fea-
ture which will attract most attention is
that criticising the sections of the House
currency bill which authorize banks to is
sue notes against their general assets.
Because Mr.. Dawes has done this a num-
Der of papers which are opposed to cur
rency reform assume that the controller is
opposed to any legislation on the subject.
Several of these papers have extracted a
great deal of satisfaction from the state
nients of the controller The objection to
the issue provision of the proposed act is
that the noteholder is given a preference
over the depostor when a bank fails. AS
1t would take 60 per cent. of the capital
stock or assets of some banks to redeem
their outstanding notes, there would be lit
tie left for the depositors. 1t may be said
in this connection that the noteholder and
the depositor stand in entirely different re-
lations to the bank issuing notes. The man
who takes the note has no means of know
ing that it has been issued by an insolvent
bank, while the depositor living in the vicin-
ity of the bank has much better means of
information.
The point. however, is one which may be
amended il it shall be found that the OBJ
jections of Controller Dawes are important.
1t is more important that the controller of
the currency does not oppose, but really
favors early legislation regarding the cur
rency Since the issue of the controller S
report the President has openly declared in
favor of legislation on the line of the Nc
Cleary bill. A sound-money man, and a
practical business man, il is probable that
Secretary Gage, in his report, will favor
the general features of the pending cur
rency bill. His opinions are those of a man
of much greater experience than Mr.. Dawes.
Still, the issue of bank notes against the
assets OF bank is opposed by many men
familiar with banking.

Mr.. Swift gave but a few chapters of a
large book which full history Of the sins
of omission and commission of the Taggart
regime would make. The Taggart organs
assail Mr.. Swift because they fear that the
people will believe Mr.. Swift when they
might not heed a Republican newspaper
during campaign. 1t was charged that it
was an improperly for Mr.. Swift to bring
the shortcomings of Mayor Taggart's adj
ministration into a meeting Of the league.
On the other hand it was not only proper.
but a duty. The papers read in the meetings
of the league emphasized the Importance
of reform charters as they are called The
speakers insisted that the charter would do
all. Mr.. Swift simply presented a few of
many facts to show that a mayor must
obey the provisions of the charter to get
good results, and illustrated his point by the
example Of Mayor Iaggart

This is a very curious book. 1t is trans
lation from the original Latin of a famous
literary fragment entitled "Cena Trimachi-
onis," written in the reign of Nero, by c.
Petronius Arbiter. 1t is the same Petronius
who figures so prominently in Sienkiewiczs
"Quo Vadis." and is the most agreeable
character in that tale. The interest excited
by Quo Vadis'' probably suggested to
Prof. Harry II. Peck the making of this
translation. The original work is one of the
great masterpieces of ancient comic litera-
ture, and is so unique as to make it very
difficult to render it into literal ard cor
responding English. Latin scholars say that
it contains the most perfect specimens ex-
tant of plebeian Latinity-the idicm of the
Roman rabble as distinct from the literary
language of cultivated men. 1t is filled with
words and phrases that find no parallel
elsewhere in existing Latin literature, and
the conversation of the characters intro
duced in ii is so colored with Latin slang
and plays on words as to make anything
like a literal translation quite impossible
The best that can be done is to give in
English a. rendering that shall faithfully re-
produce the spirit Of the original while adj
herring as closely as possible to the actual
form of expression in the original as the
result is some surprising condolences be-
tween the slang of ancient Rome and that
of modern England and America, though
the criticism is made in certain quarters
