BANKS To BE
DISCIPLINED
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CALL BUREAU. 1906 G STREET, N.
W.. WASHINGTON. Sept. 15.-Secretary
of the Treasury Shaw has definitely de-
cided to withdraw the Government de-
posits from all banks reducing their cir
culation to take advantage of the high
price of United States bonds where such
banks are already designated as United
States repositories. Furthermore, he will
refuse to grant applications from new
banks desiring to become Government de-
positories unless they agree to maintain
their circulation at the present figures.
This, the Secretary hopes, will put an
end to the perplexing situation brought
about by the clamor of many banks for
increased deposits, while at the same
time they are doing their best to reduce
the volume of currency available for busi-
ness by retiring circulating notes based
on United States bonds.
While the treasury officials, as we'll as
officers of national banks believe that
such an anomalous situationJis due more
to the system than to the action of the
banks themselves Secretary Shaw be-
lieyes it is time to put an end to IT. If
possible, and will make use of his discre
tionary power in naming repositories TO
show his disapproval of retiring circula-
tion for the purposes of bond speculation
Although no official announcements
have been or will be made on this inten-
ton of Secretary Shaw, it can be said on
the highest authority that the action will
he taken.

DANGEROUS
ILLNESS Of
SIR THOMAS
Lipton's Condition
EXCiteS Grave
Concern.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, Sept. 15.-Sir Thomas Upton
arrived in Chicago to-day too i'll to meet
any of the engagements arranged for him,
and was pronounced late tonight to be
suffering from Inflammation of the stom-
ach and bowels. His condition is serious.
At 10 o'clock his secretary, John West
Wood, hurried from Sir Thomas suite on
the parlor floor of the Auditorium Annex
and summoned Drs. Nicholas Sem and
George w. Webster by telephone.
During the day DR.. Homer NJ. Thomas
had been in attendance on the dIstin-
guished patient In the evening the Baro-
nets condition became suddenly worse,
and it was decided to call eminent spe-
cialists into consultation.
For more than an hour Drs Sem, Web
ster and Thomas were engaged in their
examination, concluding with a diagnosis
that unmistakable symptoms of infiam-
nation of the stomach and bowels were
in evidence. Up to that time his ailment
had been diagnosed as acute indigestion
When the physicians emerged from the
sick room they declined to discuss Sir
Thomas condition further than to make
the briefest statement. Neither would
they say whether they thought his chance
for recovery was good.
II think the public is so deeply inter-
ested in Sir Thomas and his welfare that
all there is TO know should be given out"
said Alexander II. Revell 1T is true that
there are serious indications of infiam-
nation. and we are all pretty much wor-
ried. Everything is being done, and an
other consultation will be held in the
morning. In the meantime Drs. Thomas
and Webster and myself will be in con-
stant attendance on Sir Thomas"

ESSEX, Ont, Sept. 15.-Drs. James Brien
and w. c. Doyle, physicians in this town,
were called last week to attend Mrs.
Frank Wagner. A child was born to her
of unusual size and giving no signs of life.
The physicians worked more than an hour
in vain attempt to bring to life the
child with hot and cold water baths, in
Hating the lungs with a tube, artificial
respiration and every other means known,
and they finally decided to use electricity.
The house where the baby was born is
three blocks from the physicians office.
The doctors wrapped the child in a blank
ct and carried it to the office, where no
time was lost in alternately APPLYING 2
Faradic current and a galvanic current
The negative pole was placed at the base
of the brain and the positive pole to the
abdomen. The physicians administered a
current of 12O milliamperes to the body.
Fifteen minutes after they had COM
menced the treatment the child Sava a
short gasp. This encouraged the phvsi-
clans, who increased the power of the
electrical current to 200 milliamperes. the
positive pole being changed to the base
of the brain and the negative pole to the
abdomen. Every moment the little one
showed increasing signs of life, and
within ten minutes it was breathing nat
urally.
The doctors then decided to give the
child an electrical spray bath This was
done with static machine, and when il
was completed the youngster was to all
intents as healthy as any other child loss

under sentence of deportation. They had
been thoroughly coached by somebody in
the jail and were thus aware of the des-
perate plan to hoodwink the United
States officials and circumvent them in
their efforts to send them back to China.
Dasher, without any attempt at investi-
cation, readily turned over the prisoners
to Gamble.

Hon. Will Cumback Tells What They
Once Were and What They May BE.

John p. Brown, In Arboriculture.
Away back in the SOS, during a heated
political campaign In which the Wings and
Democrats battled for control Of the ma
tional government, the editor Of Arboricul-
ture, then a boy of fifteen, heard the first
political stump speech of his life, and to-
day the memories of that day are fresh in
his memory. The Hon. Will Cumback was
the speaker during his candidacy for Con-
gress.
Governor Cumback is we'll qualified to
compare the dense forests of that early day
with the few remaining trees Of this time.
His words of advice are golden, and we
hope they may be needed by the farmers Of
Indiana.

fortune to have travelled in nearly all the
States and Territories of this country.

in every place have visited. and have con-
cuded, all things considered, that Indiana,
my native State, is the best of them all. In
admiring the beauty of the scenery in our
State we have also the satisfying conscious
ness of the great fertility of the soil and
her other inexhaustible natural resources.

went the rounds of the press on THE Wood
lands OF Indiana, and propose herein to
repeat substantially what L then said, and
lish this letter for the consideration and
action of your readers of Arboriculture.

a dense forest. There was only a small
portion of prairie land. There is still on
the border of almost each farm which wa 8

I think I could turn and live with the animals
they are so placid and self-contained.
I stand and look at them long and long
They do not sweat and whine about their condi-

They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for
their sins,
They do not make me sick discussing their duty
to God.
Not one is dissa tisfed. not one is demented with
the mania of owning things,
Not one kneels another, nor to his kind that

Not one IS respectable or unhappy over the whole
