Mr.. Bell Tells Why Favor
ed Banks Should Pay
Market Price.
MEASURE now BEFORE HOUSE
Would Compel Government Depositories
to Meet This Requirement - Colorado
Congressman Holds Uncle Sam Should
Follow Example Set by States.

Among the many important bills now
pending before the House Committee on
| Ways and Means. none has excited more
favorable comment throughout the coun-
try than the one 10 provide for interest
On Government deposits and the distribu-
tion OF the same. The bill is of special
| interest to national banks. The banks
| named as Government repositories by the
| Secretary OF the Treasury are opposed to
the measure, while those not thus IA
vored heartily indorse the measure.
Representative Bell of Colorado. the au-
thor of the bill, has for years made a
study of this important question. He
says that while the Committee on Ways
and Means may take no action on the bill
this session. il will. however, be a sub
ject discussed on the stump this fall. In
discussing his bill last evening, Repre-
sentative Bell said:
Attention should be attracted to such
measures and action should be obtained,
but there are such overwhelming fnan-
cial interests in favor of free deposits OF
Government money that it is very diff
cult TO get any friendly action, though
everyone's thoughts seem to be in har-
mony that the banks should pay interest
on Government deposits, just the same as
they pay interest on State deposits.
States Receive Interest.
''on May we had in the banks sl2I,-
iSO,iSs.7O. This money, at per cent. the
maximum rate under House bill No. 1872,
would be worth s3,6i3,0Oj per annum, or
about $4,000 per day.
Il wrote the State treasurers of all the
States some two years ago as to the
rates they were getting from their State
funds, and the treasurer of New York
wrote me that the State of New York
obtained 3 per cent on its canal funds.
that are somewhat permanent, and that
upon funds Of other States held in New
York, like Kansas, for instance, they were
getting 2 per cent. The State treasurer
of Massachusetts obtained from 2l2 to 1l2
per cent on all State funds, and so the
cent, according to the permanency Of the
funds, and but very few States failed
TO collect interest on the State funds.
AT the rate New York and Massachu-
sets were paying at the time / got these
letters, the use of the present funds in
the banks would be OF a cash value Of
about $500 per day. The letters from
these treasurers OF the different States
showed that the Government money had |
as well established value in the money :
markets as did wheat. corn, or cotton. I
and such money States as Connecticut we're
drawing handsome interest on the funds
belonging to the State.

One fashion for women exists almost
exclusively in photographs. 1t is just
now the style for women to be photo
graphed in a low-necked dress with hat.
Half OF the smart women who have had
their pictures taken during the past win
ter have been dressed in that way. The
photographers all urge women to adopt
that fashion, not only because it is the
most becoming for a photograph, but also
because it is al the moment the most pop
ular OF all styles in photograph.
Generally the hat is black and the gown.
If the costume is also TO be in the best
mode. viii be white. Nothing else has
been considered SO smart during the past
winter as the white lace or crepe dress
and the black hat, says writer in the
Sun.
Nine. Senbrich has nearly always been
seen in public in that dress this season.
and when Mrs Leslie Garter recited at a
charity matinee the other afternoon she
was robed in white gown and wore a
large black hat. In the photograph the
color of the gown does not make SO much
difference
And If is only in the photographs that
It is likely. in the opinion of the photog-
raphers at least. to continue in vogue with
their clients for another season. Possibly
after while it will go further than the
atelierS.
But there are few places in which such a
coordination of periods as hat and q
IoW-necked gown could be worn. At the
are never worn at the opera. Practically
the only place to which such q costume
would be suited would be a dinner in a
public restaurant.
