the survey Of a railroad to be built to
the ore fields in Scott county, near
Dunganon. 1t is said the ore de-
posts up there are very rich and if
such is the case there is some hopes
that the road will be built. 1t will
probably leave the main line at or

a number o. workmen, and will in
that way benefit the community.

SENATE CURRENCY BILL.
Republicans Hope to Pass it Without
an Amendment.

New York, Dec. 26-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: Senator
Aldrich of Rhode Island, who will have
charge of the Republican currency bill in
the senate, will try TO put it through
that body without an amendment.
This is the plan decided upon by the
Republican leaders. Republicans who
may favor changes in the bill are ex-
pected to abstain from offering amend
ments and bring the matters they think
should be changed to the attention of
the finance committee. In this way much
time will be saved and the Republicans
will be able to present at all times a
united front to the opposition. The lead
ers believe they can carry out their pro-
gramme.
Once the bill is in conference, the. Re
publican conferees from the two houses
can get together and draft the firial COM
promise measure which will be agreed to
by both houses and viii become law.
There is every : probability that this
measure will resemble the senate bill
more than the house bill. 1t is expected
to contain the senate refunding feature
and the house provision authorizing the
establishment of national banks with
$500 capital.
1t is probable that the conferees will
decide to incorporate in the bill the pro-
vision recommended by Controller Dawes;
to so modify the permission to national
banks to issue currency up to the par
value of the bonds deposited as to make
10 per- cent of that circulation an emer-
imposing a tax of per cent on the addi-
tional 10 per cent the banks are to be
allowed to issue. a
While Republican leaders hope to be
able to prevent the offering of amend
ments from their side of the chamber,
except by Senators Wolcott and Chan
der. who oppose the bill. they will be
unable to control the Democratic side,
and many amendments are expected from
that quarter. This will give more politi-
cal significance to the debate in the SEN
ate than attended the discussion In the
house.

warrant Drawn On the State Treasury
many Must Have Better Tariff
Terms With This Country.

Berlin, Dec. 26.-The German gov
eminent has definitely abandoned all
idea of acquiring the Danish West In
dies. either by purchase from Denmark
or otherwise The correspondent of the
Associated Press received this informa-
ton from an authoritative source to-
day The German embassy in Wash
ington has left no doubt that such an
attempt would be looked upon by the
Americans as an unfrierdly act, and
as serious infringement of the Mon
roe doctrine
According to the same authority. the
reports representing that Denmark is
negotiating the sale of the islands to
the United States are either entirely
premature or without foundation.
DIR. Paasche. leader< of the national
liberals in the reichstag. has JUS. re-
turned from four months trip = the
United States, Cuba and the other Vest
Indies. The trip was undertaken for
the United German sugar interests. the
object of DR.. Paasche being to study
thoroughly what prospects cane sugar
had in regions through which he pass
ed. of competing successfully with Ger
man beet sugar. under the existing Am
Grican tariff
In the course of an interview today
sugar would be driven out of the Unit
ed States markets within three years
unless the United States grants better
terms than the present tariff. He will
fully discuss the matter in the reich
stag, and will publish a book on the
subject.

joyed his experiences in the western
world, speaks enthusiastically OF the
phenomenal prosperity everywhere APP
parent in the United States He be-
lieveu a way viii be found to effect a
commercial treaty with. the United
States which will be beneficial to both

tiers that the new tax rate on accum-
ulated capital in Prussi;s-shows an in
crease of five milliards.
Armored trains will hereafter be a
regular feature of German war equip
ment. Extensive experiments have been
made on the military railroad from
Schoenberg to Unersdrof. Various types
of plated trains have been used. all
made at Krupp's works. 1t has been
found that a light armored train with
an armorad car before the engine. in
which a machine. gun is placed. and
adjustable for firing in three direc-
tons. is the most available type. These
cars are open at the top.
There has been another heavy Sow
fall in Germany today, and street traf-
fic is greatly impeded. One lesson from
the severe SHOWS of the last two weeks
is that the accumt~ator- electric car sys-
tenn is a failure. The Berlin lines will
substitute overhead wires.
