NEED NEW CURRENCY SYSTEM.
Former Secretary Gage and John H..
Rhodes Call on President.

washington, December 19.-Former Sec
retary Gage and John II. Rhoades, chair
man of the finance committee of the New
York Chamber of Commerce, called upon
the President today to presen; to him
resolutions adopted by the Chamber or
Commerce in advocacy of a more elastic
currency system. President Roosevelt
cordially received them. but did not in
dcate what his attitude regarding the
resolutions would be.
Mr. Gates and Mr.. Rhoades later had a
talk with Chairman Fowler, of the house
committee on banking and currency. CIV
ing their views on the currency question.
They submitted TO Mr.. Fowler a copy
of the resolutions adopted by the New
York Chamber of Commerce.
Messrs. Gage and Rhoades also had a
conference with Senators Aldrich and
Allison of the senate committee on finance
and outlined to them a measure for the
increase of the elasticity of the currency
with the end in view of temporarily in
creasing the money supply in time of
financial stringency. One of their sug-
gestions was that the national banks
which are made government repositories,
be allowed to borrow money from the
national treasury. They also suggested
other means by which national banks
might be allowed to increase the volume
of currency in times of emergency, all
these devices and means to be controlled
by the treasury department. They urged
that congress should take action during
the present session, but no assurance was
given them as to when the bill could be
taken up.

little, dwarf monkey said. and when his
uncle, a patriarchal monkey, probably a

enquired with senatorial truth-like ex-
actness where was the fire?' The dwarf
monkey modified the statement like a
more human kin, and said while he did
not see It. THAT a friend of a friend of
his friend, saw it," Then noting the look
of doubt on the uncle monkeys face. the
dwarf monkey suddenly exclaimed,
eThere's the fire nowl F'irel Fire Firel!!'
Enquiry afterward revealed that 1t wasn't
a fire. but tiny piece of red izinglass
