Mr.. Gage knew OF no method for rails
Ing this extra money except taxation or
the sale of bonds. Senator Turpie asked
If he could think of no method, and the
secretary replied: Il cannot think Of
any other method to which think IL
would be proper and safe for the gov
ernment to resort, except the issuance
OF treasury certificates. / think 1t is a
legitimate operation to borrow in any
way you can make 1t acceptable to both
parties to the contract" Mr.. Gage ex-
pressed the opinion that 1t would not be
possible to place as much as 500 200, 900
OF the loan among individuals and in
small sums. Explaining his reason for
this opinion. he said: "Our people are
very different from the French people,
II you please in whose country there are
no savings banks. In our country there
are 100000 people who have money in
savings banks at general average rate
Of interest of 4 percent. The money is
available to them at any moment. The
temptation and self-interest in invest in
percent bonds and disturb their little
balances In the savings banks is not very
great. In France the individual has his
money. his little savings, slowed away
q
hoard. 1t is in cash. 1t is drawing no
interest, generally, and when the gov
ernment puts out loan 1t is his oppor-
tunity. Our people have larger oppor-
tunities. That is the principal reason
why think the whole 800, 600. 900 will be
kaken by private persons"
To this statement Senator wolcott:
took exception, saying: THE secre-
tary allows nothing for the patriotic
desire of the people to support the gov
ernment and take bonds at lees inter-
est than they can get in a savings bank.
He assumes they as well would be
governed entirely by selfishness."
The proceedings at the meeting of the
committee Friday were generally har-
monious. Indeed there has been no
marked division except over the bond
question and as to the amount Of rev.
snue the bill shall yield. Senator VOL
colt expressed himself as favorable 10
the extension OF the revenue features
Of the BILL Some have Inferred from his
position on this point that he is opposed
20 the bond issue. but such is not the
case. and II Is understood that he will
support the bond clause. The position
or Senator Jones OF Nevada on the bond
issue has not developed positively. The
Democratic members expressed them
selves solidly in opposition to the bond
Issue. They presented the other MEM
bers of the committee with some of the
amendments they will formally offer.
These include the provision for She taxa
tion of the gross receipts OF corporations

RED MEN.

The annual session Of the Great Council
of Rhode Island will be held at Natick Thurs
day, May 19 Perhaps the most important
matter of business will be an effort on the
part or some of the energetic members to do
away with what Is known as the adoption
tax, which works hardship on a tribe that
increases its mem bership, and it is claimed
by the movers in the matter that there Is
no reason why tribe should pay into the
treasury of the Great Council 81 for each
candidate admitted. Last year one tribe in
creased its membership by nearly 100, but
they were called upon to contribute 81 for
each candidate. This strikes some Of the
members as reing not o fair deal. Rhode
island is said to be the only state that has
adopted such q law.
At the meeting Of Moshassuck Tribe, Tues
day evening, one candidate was given the
chiefs degree, and one application for men,
bership was received. In the future, the
tribe will meet on Wednesday evening, and
at the next meeting one candidate will be
given the adoption degree.

washington. May THE testimony
bf Secretary Gage concerning the con-
hilton Of the treasury and its require
ments In order to meet the monetary
demands OF the war. as given before tho
senate committee on finance. has been
made public. The treasurer estimated
that he must have $50. 900. 900 for work.
Ing balance from day to day. This would
leave now only 100000 Of available
net cash In the treasury but for the fact
that there were some liabilities that
would not be pressed. He thought that
all told the treasury could count upon
available cash to the extent Of SIC, ,00o. 900
above the 500. 900 900 gold reserve. Mr..
Gage stated that at the time his testi-
mony was given none of the volunteer
forces had become a tax upon the gov
ernment, but that the entire 125.o00 men
would have to be taken care OF within a
months time. The best estimates placed
the extraordinary expenses for the war
and navy departments at $50. 1000. 600 up
TO the first OF July next In addition to the
$50, ,0O0, 900 voted for national defense.
He thought that from $40, 900, 600 TO $780,
900. 900 in addition to the ordinary rev.
inues would have to be realized between
now and July to preserve the gold re-
serve intact. Without this extra fund
the reserve would be reduced to the ex-
tent of $50, ,0o0. 900. leaving in the treasury
only $40, 0O0. 900 all told at the end Of the
fiscal year.

WHAT BOSTON EDITORS SAY.

Boston, May 7.--"Confdence Is alb

scare which has affected few people
is shown by the progress Of events to
be unfounded There is no cause for
business to slacken or for capital to
hesitate In its enterprises"
The Advertiser urges that ''it is not
safe altogether to reason upon the basis
that our foe will do the wisest thing open
to him, or even that he will abstain from
doing the most foolish thing possible.
At the best OF times. cool prudence and
sound Judgment are not the Spaniard's o

The Globe suggests that "the govern
