Bankers Association, However,
Refuse to Endorse the Asset
Currency Scheme
A COMMITTEE TO INVESTIGATE
The Question Not Definitely Disposed
of, But Temper of the Convention
Was Evidently Against Endorsing
the PIan-Some Other Scheme for
Elastic Currency Sought After.

New Orleans, La, Nov. 13.-The
campaign of education" on currency
and banking reform, which was started
by Messrs. Eckels and SticlSney at the
waukee one year ago and has often
been since referred to as the "Milwau-
kee movement" took a halt during
Wednesdays session of the American
bankers convention in this place, and
narrowly escaped big backward
bound.
But for the earnest pleading Of F. G
Bigelow, president of the First Nation
al bank. of Milwaukee, who will be
elected vice president of the American
Bankers association, the convention
would likely have passed a resolution
introduced by another Wisconsin
banker. A. J. Frame, Of Waukesha.
which denounced assets, currency, and
branch banks as scheme to substitute
for the present Independent banks "a
brood of 200 or 300 great central banks
with 10000 to $4,000 branches in large
cities as well as small" and which
would skim the cream from the Who'll :
country to enrich the eXchequers of the
great central banks"
Mr.. Bigelow urged that the conven-
ton take no action on Mr.. Frames
resolution, but refer 1t to the execu-
tive council, where he limited it would
stay Indefinitely referred. He said
that tfa country would nrpha bly 1Ilti
,llately be forced to the adoption of an
asset currency. and that the American
Bankers association ought, therefore.
not to commit itself rashly against it.
A vote was then taken. and, to the
satisfaction of The friends of asset cur
rency and branch banking, Mr. Frames
resolution by close vote, was side
tracked to the executive council.

banking delegates were under tie cir

MISS HoGE WELL AGAIN.
Typhoid Fever Case Yields to Christian
Science Treatment.

Washington, Nov. 13-Inasmuch as
so much has been published in the
newspapers regarding the illness with
typhoid fever of Miss Louise Hoge of
Chicago, who was to have acted as
bridesmaid at the Shaw-Rogan we'd
ding in this city recently, it may be well
to state the sequel of the story. Miss
Hoge, it will be remembered, is Chris
tan Scientist, and, to the CONSERVATION
of the Washington people who do not
believe in that system of healing, she
declined to have any regular physician
called, and contented herself with the
services of Mrs. Linscott local prac-
titioner of the new science. From the
first the young woman began to mend,
and altho delirious for several days be-
fore Mrs. Linscott came to her relief,
her case yielded very promptly to treat
ment, and more than a week ago she re-
turned with her parents to Chicago,
where she now is, in good health. Mrs.
Linscott went to Chicago with the fam
lily, for precautions sake The sudden
recovery is a great puzzle to the local
physicians.

A BOXER OUTBREAK.
More Trouble With the Fanatics in
China,

Victoria, B. c., Nov. 13.-Maii adj
vices from South China report a recru-
descence of the rebellion in Kwangsi
some time ago reported to have been
suppressed. The rebels captured So
chinchok, in Chin WanFu, secured the
SUBJ project and placed him in his own
prison. After pillaging this place they
attacked and took Lin Chin Flu, a pre-
fectural city. Large numbers of the
Kotishui, a new secret society which is
both anti-foreign and ti-dynastic,
have joined the rebel movement The
rebels are singularly supplied by cara
vans. which cross the adjacent French
and Portuguese territory with arms and
war munitions. Two Chinese cruisers,
the Whan Gal and King Ching. left
Canton shortly prior to the departure of
the steamer Empress of China from
Hong Kong with over a thousand men
to reinforce the imperial land forces.
In SZe-Chuan the Boxer movement
still progresses. The Boxers have plum
dered all the villages between See
Chuan and Cheng-Lu, and in one place
massacred 100 Catholic converts.
When the last advices were received at
Shanghai from Cheng Tu Yang He 1t
was besieged by Boxers.

CHOLERA N THE ARkY
Appearance of the Disease
Among the Soldiers Causes
Much Apprehension
SEVEN HAVE ALREADY DIED
A Number of Others Are Sick and 1t Is
Feared the Disease Will Become
Prevalent Among the Troops-ReaP-
pearance of the Disease Has Created
Some Alarm.
SEVEN HAVE ALREADY DIED

Manila. Nov 13.-Apprehension has
been caused here by the sudden appear
ance yesterday of cholera among the
men of detachment of the Fifth in
fantry here. Seven men have already
died and a number of others are seri-
ously ill. 1t is feared that the disease
may become prevalent again among the
troops, and great precautions are being
taken by the military and health au-
thorities.
The detachment of the Fifth infantry
in question had been placed on guard
along the Maraquina river, whence Ma
Mia receives it's water supply, as it was
deemed necessary to protect the stream
from possible pollution. The cholera
developed while the men were on this
duty.
1t was believed that cholera had en-
tirely disappeared from Manila and its
temperance has created feelings OF
apprehension.
The further decline in the price OF
silver has forced the government to
raise the rate Oh eACIduSe W @-'oV
Mexican for 81 gold.
The cheapening of silver has resulted
in increasing the loss of the government
and all other holders of silver The in
stability of the present currency is Sc
riously damaging business, and the
members of the civil commission ana
representatives of commercial interests
in the islands will unite in making a
strong plea to congress for the estab-
lishment of non fluctuating Philippine
currency.
General Miles, who is making a tour
OF the archipelago, was given a recep-
ton and banquet at Iloilo, island Of
Panay, yesterday. The general delivered
a short address in which he expressed
sympathy with the people in the af-
flictions which had come to them with
the war and the cholera. He said he
hoped for an early improvement in their
affairs.
From Iloilo General Miles proceeded

oumstances, quite content with thls
negative victory, for the much heartier
reception accorded during the morning
session to the speech of ex-Comptroller
Dawes, who opposed the Fowler bill,
than to Congressman Fowler, the au-
thor of the bill, and to Horace White
hoth of whom spoke for the bill. showed
that the majority sentiment of the con-
vention was against branch banks an
assets currency, and that any further
campaign of education" was. for the
time being at least, inopportune and
useless.
But While the doctors of our finan-
cial system at this session of the con-
vention seemed more discordantly dis
agreed than ever over the general
treatment for the health of the patient,
yet concerning one or two
elementary things to be done
a surprising unanimity de
yeloped. Every speaker today was
agreed that there should be a remedy
ready for an emergency" and most
of them were agreed that too much
good money was being taken out of
the arteries of business to prove use
less treasury surplus and to weaken
the general financial system.
Mr.. Dawes, notwithstanding his gen.
orally severe arraignment of assets
currency, nevertheless specifically sug-
sested that during the crop moving
season and in times of panic, banks
should be authorized to issue a small
amount of uncovered notes, which
should be subjected to heavy tax that
hnx IL !. fl,r {y,rnI oft
the condition of stringency had abated.
This suggestion of Mr.. Dawes is in
exact harmony with the general pur-
port of Comptroller Rfdgelys re-
marks to the convention Tuesday. The
idea of emergency circulation was
further elaborated by Congressman
Pugsley, of New York, in a speech to
the convention in the afternoon.
The emergency circulation PROPOSE
ton brought out at this convention is
the plank that the assets currency peo-
pie are now clinging to. BY meeting
Mr.. Dawes and others of his views on
this plank they are now hoping that
they can secure the passage through
the next congress OF measure like the
Lowering bill proposed by the none
tary commission.
The disagreeable events in the money
and stock markets this week have
quickened the desire of everybody here
to compromise on scheme of immed-
late relief Beautiful theories like
branch banking are fast vanishing in
the desire that some practicable step
be Immediately taken to improve con-
ditions in Wall street.
J. j. Sullivan, of Cleveland, offered
the following. which was adopted with
out objection:
Whereas, Experience has demon
strated the inadequacy of our present
currency system, and believing that the
best interests of the country demand
a system flexible as well as stable. be it
