Controller Dawes Favors Changes in
the Banking Law.
INCREASED CIRCULATION PERMITTED
Notes to the Full Value of Bonds
Deposited.
ENT OF TAX

The annual report of Charles G. Dawes
controller Of the currency, Cor the year
ended October 81, 1890, has been prepared
for transmission to Congress.
In recommending to Congress improve
ments in banking laws as directed by sec
ton 333 of the Revised Statutes, the con-
troller before making his chief and new
recommends ton for bond secured elastic
circulation, repeats his recommendation of
one year ago for law providing for an
unsecured emergency circulation to lessen
the destructive power of financial panics.
and taxed so heavily that under normal
conditions 1t must be retired and can mel
ther provide profits for the banks nor serve
as basis for the expansion Of commercial
credits. He emphasizes the necessity of
such circulation, designed like clearing
house certificates, simply as remedy for
a rare emergency. and not as an instru-
ment of current business, repeating the
words of his former recommendation, to
wit
For the purpose of allowing elasticity to
banR-nOte issues to protect the banks and
community in times of panic, IL small
amount Of uncovered notes in addition to
the secured notes, should be authorized
by law under the following limitations:
They should he subjected to go heavy tax
that they could not be issued in normal
be available i'll times of emergency. The
tax should be 81 large upon the sol
vent issuing banks as to provide a
fund. which in connection with the
pro rata share of. the assets of an in
solvent bank, would be sufficient to redeem
the notes IN full without nece<sitating any
preference of note holders over depostors
of any insulvent issuing bank. II
tax should be so larg" to force this cur
rency into retirement as soon as the
emergency passes. Such a currency could
be used only to lessen the evil effects of
the too rapid .iquda ton of credits which are
collapsing under fnarC.a, panic but could
not be profitah!y used a basis of business
speculation and intlatiun."
In introducing his now recommended ton
the controller then says that If such a law
he not passed marked degree, of elasticity
is possible Of attain aut IN connection with
our present system Of b0nd-se"ured ma
tonai bank notes and should be provided
for by law whether The former law Is

ACCUSED or APOSTASY.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, May H.
Nathan Tanner, .jr., well-known citi-
zen of Ogden, has formulated charges
of apostasy against George q. Cannon
a member of the first presidency of
the Mormon Church. Those charges
were sent by Mr.. Tanner to the high
council at Salt Lake City, but the
clerk of the council, acting under the
direction Of President Angus NJ. Can
non, brother OF George Q. Cannon, re-
fused to receive the document The
rejection was based on the ground
that Mr.. Tanner was not in good
standing in the church, and, there
fore, had no standing in church
court II Is felt by many that the
matter Is one OF political hostility,
prompted by Democrat who has a
quarrel with the wing Of the Repub-
lican party which Cannon represents.
