HANDLING THE CROWD.
Admirable Arrangements Were Well
Carried Out

The police arrangements inside and out
side the White House today were more
satisfactory than ever. Inside the White
House the force Of attendants handling the
crowd was the largest eyer known. Major
Sylvester was there and watching the work
Of his own men. Chief Wilkie Of the Sc
cret service had a number of his men scat
tered through the building. assisting in look
ing after and managing the crowd.
Throughout the grounds were many po-
lice officers The White House staff Of at
tendants and uSherS was materially aided
by the local force and secret service.
The carriage arrangements required skill
full handling in view Of the large number Of
carriages used. At New Year receptions
heretofore it has been easy to place all
the carriages inside the front part of the
White House grounds to wait the exits of
their owners.
This year the carriages exceeded In num-
Der the record of any year. Major Sylves-
ter directed that they be lined up on the
street between the White House and Treas
ury and on the ellipse south of the White
House. This was done. and police officers
with megaphones called for the vehicles as
the occupants departed from the White
House by the new east terrace.
The vehicles Of the diplomatic corps and
Of other distinguished people were parked
on executive avenue near the State Depart
ment. Megaphones called the drivers from
there. The diplomats entered their vehicles
at the south door Of the White House. Maj
Sylvester was interested in watching the
new carriage plan, so as to determine what
shall be done when the four formal recep-
lions of the President are held the balance
Of the winter. If his officers report that the
carriages may be placed as today that will
be the arrangement in the future.

THE VENEZUELAN SITUATION.
Rejoinders Of Foreign Offices to Castro
Not Received Here.

The rejoinders of the European foreign
offices to President Castro's reply to their
arbitration proposal have not reached
Washington. This, however, was no mat
ter of surprise, for 1t is well understood
here that the holidays are much more
closely observed in European capitals than
in Washington, and, 1t would be extremely
difficult to secure consideration on New
Year day Or the day preceding for any
matter not regarded as of the greatest ur-
gency. .r..~
Following the rule which it has adopted
in the treatment Of correspondence passing
between Venezuela and the allies, the State
Department still declines to make public
any information respecting the details OF
President Castro's reply, contenting itself
with very general outline already given
to the public. Still inquiry confirms the
press report from Rome to the effect that
Castro did attach a condition to the ac-
ceptance Of the arbitration proposal, and
that condition was not Endorsed by the
Washington government. But 1t Is pointed
out that 1t has not been regarded as neces-
sary at the State Department to either APP
prove or dlsapprOve any of the details of
the propositions now in exchange between
the principals
AS to this condition attached to the &C
ceptance. 1t can, however. be stated that
it is not Of great consequence, nor Is 1t
likely to involve the loss Of the arbitratio
project. for it is understood to relate rather
to the means of getting the issue to arbi-
tration than to any substantial principle
involved.

BANK NOTE ISSUES.
Address Before the Scientists by d.
rector Of the Mint.

The address Of George Roberts, director
of the mint, before the scientists yesterday
was devoted largely to the matter Of bank
note issues. He sadd in part:
1.-The objector to note issues without spe-
cial security wants first Of all to dive st n M
self of the idea that note redemption de-
ponds solely or prima rily upon the gold re-
serve in the banks" The proposition to
issue notes on bank assets, he said, was but
development Of the clearing house idea.
Continuing, he said: so long as bank
confines it's note issues to the service of Its
regular daily, legitimate trade, to giving
the ordinary accommodations to farmers.
manufacturers and merchants In their busa-
ness, there would be no important balances
against it at the clearing house. because
the legitimate trade of the country offsets
itself. But as soon as a bank begins to
greedily push it's circulation by unusual
methods or unusual credits adverse bal
ances at the clearing house would begin to
appear and it's gold reserve to dwindle. So
long as bank does only the business that
a bank ought to do, redemption would be
no problem at all, but the moment 1t de-
parted from-that policy 1t would have to
suffer and settle at every misstep."

among certain plains Indians circie-cross
ornament is very common. Among the
Arapahoe Indians this is interpreted as a
northern star. The Sioux Indian says 1t
represents a military exploit. while accord

true also of a great many other motives

The second paper, "Conventionalism in
American Art" was by Prof. Franz Boas.
Studies along this line have been pursued
for twenty years or more. some Of the most
noted being by Putnam and Holmes of The
United States. Balfour and Haddon of Eng
land and Stelpe Of Sweden. Such studies
are happily being carried on now all over
the world.
In regard to geometric motives. DIR. Boas
said they are always intended to represent
animals. In every tribe a series can be
made out. leading from realistic motives to
conventional or geometric ones. Upon OBJ
tects OF common use the tendency In decora-
tion Is toward geometric motives. On SYM
oOlic or ceremonial objects, photographic
decoration prevails. DR.. Boas pointed out
that among the Huichol Indians the picto-
graphic tendency Ia greatest in painted de-
signs. and least In the woven designs. The
enect OF technique and material on decora-
tive motives has been fully demonstrated.
