MILLIONS SET FREE
Reserve Against Government
 Deposits Abolished.
STATEMENT BY SECRETARY SHAW
Action the Result of the Great strin. gency In the Money Mnrl1et-CaIl Money In Wall Street at
 35 Per Cent

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-Leslie M. Shaw, secretary of the treasury, now in this city, declines to discuss the fnan- cial situation further than to say that the treasury would cooperate as far as possible with the banks both east and west in their effort to supply the necessary credit to do the unprecedent- ed amount of business that is taxing railroads and steamship lines as well Rs banks to the utmost. He said he had never seen any good reason why banks holding a government deposit. se- cured by goyernihent bonds should be required to carry a reserve against it. First, it is a deposit not likely to be called in time of stringency, and, sec ond, if called, the collateral will al- ways sell for cash and in excess of the deposit. He has had in mind ever since he took control of the treasury to re- heve the banks of this burden.
 The comptroller of the currency agrees with the secretary, and there fore it is announced that hereafter banks will not be required to carry reserve against government deposits se- cured by government bonds. The treas ury has on deposit with various banks scattered throughout the country from Maine to California and from 1Iinneso- ta to New Orleans in round numbers $13000O,OO0 against which they have heretofore been compelled to hold more than $3O,0O0,O0 of gold or it's equiva- lent This decision will release that much reserve and $3OO00, ,o0O additional credit.
 The secretary said he would continue to make deposit of internal revenue and miscellaneous receipts Gall available for that purpose), practically $500,000 per day, as long as the situation required, and if banks were unable to obtain gov ernment bonds to secure the. same he would accept the same general class of securities - municipal bonds, etc.-as are made available by the laws of the several states for savings banks. By this it is not intended to foam in ex- cess of 65 per cent of the par value, and nothing will be accepted that has not been panic tried and proved salable for cash. He said he should of course de terndine each case by itself.
 The secretary further said he would accept security of the class described above for a portion of the deposit held by each bank now holding a govern. ment deposit and release enough ? per cent consols to cover any increased currency that the bank may desire to Issue.
 The secretary's additional relief therefore may be summed up as fol lows:

Peoples Coal League Organized to
 Stop Mining Troubles.
 SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Sept. 30- Plans for the organization of. the Peo- ple's Coal league have been launched in this city by Herbert Myrick, who or ganized the League of Domestic Pro ducers three years ago. The platform in brief is as follows:
 '.We demand that the federal gov ernment own the coal mines and ad- minister them in the interests of the whole people"
 Mr. Myrick claims that the adoption of his plan will permanently solve the coal question by sending to congress men who have pledged themselves to favor government ownership of the coal mines. The scheme is declared nonpartisan and nonpolitical and is de signed to effect "such reform of the coal industry that recurrence of ex- isting conditions shall be impossiblel''
 The league will have headquarters in the Marquette building, Chicago; 52 Lafayette place, New York, and in this city. A branch of the league is to be organized in every congressional district in the country, with commit tees in every township and precinct. MT. Myrick says he will have more than 100000 voters affiliated with him in less than fortnight and that the plan will sweep the country from z.,6 fo ard

First.-The release of practically $30,000o00 reserve, which will permit the banks to increase their volume of business S130,000,000.
 Second.-The substitution of other security for consuls now held by the government on condition that the same shall be used as basis for increas sed circulation, which, if accepted by the banks, will Immediately increase the volume S2O, ,O00, to $25co0O,O00 and will add thereto if needed.
 Third.IEhe continuation of deposits to the limit allowed by law, accepting, if necessary, security other than gov ernment bonds.
 With call money up to S5 per cent and other adverse circumstances yester- days stock market received very se- we're shake up, net losses in many ac- tive issues ranging from 2 to 10 per cent. The greatest loss was sustained by Louisville and Nashville, which dropped f05s points. Disappointment regarding the probable disposition of the~road as much as anything else is supposed to have caused the break.
 Other features that combined to un- settle the market were disquieting re- ports concerning the presidents condi- tion, the prolongation of the coal strike and the indubitable fact that London and the continent are unloading Amer cans'' in large blocks. Practically all the money loaned on call came from trust companies and out of town corpo- rations and private individuals. Tie banks of the Clearing House associa- tion stood aloof and made virtually no loans for speculative purposes. More over, the so called substantial interests offered no support to the market, which. with few exceptions, including Atchison and St. Paul, closed at the lowest level.

B. Demarest in GreenvilIe.
 Some of the dogs in this town are becoming to be 3 public nuisance. Re gently several dogs jumped through a large wire fence, making a hole large enough for the owners cattle to get through, which later caused him great inconvenience, as when he went to get the cows he couldn't find them without hunting all over the neighbor- hood.
 Tomorrow the chains of the law will be loosened and the hunters will rush forward to battle with the squir- rel, duck, quail, partridge or other sort of game on which their eyes may be come fastened. And they will not want for something to shoot at as it is reported that the woods are full of game of all descriptions. Thomas Maxwell has severed his connection with the Greenville factory and will soon enter the Seymour Smith & Sons factory at Rockdale, where he was formerly employed Ernest Gates has accepted a position in the buf1ng room at the Greenyille 1 factory.

There is scarcely a vegetable that
goes upon the farmers table that
may not be used to advantage in
feeding chicks, both young and all.
Thick sour milk may be used for
adults, while curds of milk make an
excellent food for young poultry, but
can not be used too often. Green on
ion-tops and garlic are much relished
by both chickens and turkeys. and
will be found conducive to the health
and growth of all kinds of young
poultry. A variety of food is quite
essential to the growth and highest
state of health. Fowls are feeding
from morning to night when provided
with good range, and this is very
essential feature. A constant addi-
ton to the supply of food in the crop
appears to be one of the laws Of
good digestion.-Farm and Fireside.
