lation to ensure and hasten its return

set aside as a safety fund to secure

emergency circulation should be is
sued without any distinguishing mark

cured BY bonds approved BY the sec

TO further libefalize The circulation,
your COMMITTEES recommends that the

In the judgment of your committee
these notifications Of law can be
authorized without damage or dis
credit TO the National bank eircula-
iion, but your committee cannot re-
commend any step that will tend
toward a return to the miscellaneous
circulation which prevailed ii the
country before The war, Or any step
which will disregard the history of

tions Of the world, nor can 1t recon-
mend that any note should be is

IN the foregoing report | am inlpel-
led to dissent from the recommenda-
ton for the repeal Of the law restrict.
ing the redemption of National bank
circulation Of SS0O0,00O a month, for
the reason chiefly that II seems to
me to be inconsistent IN the same

The Chase Trial.

DENVER, Colo, Oct. 22, The at
torneys for Brigadier General John
Chase, commander of the National
guard Of Colorado, now on trial before
court martial on the charges of per.
Jury and disobedience ana insuborti-
nation. are leading the court into a
maze Of legal technicalities. on the
roster OF the court there are but two
attorneys. Today the court decided
that General Chase had made legal
oath on his return in the habeas cor
pus cases on which the perjury charge
Is founded, although the notary testi-
fed that he did not formally swear
the general. The defense today OBJ
jected TO the evidence being given on
behalf OF the prosecution by $. D..
Crump Of Cripple Greek. who acted as
the attorney of General Chase, In
habeas corpus cases, because OF the
privileged character of the commu-
nications, and was sustained. Adju-
tant General Sherman NJ. Bell was
called to the stand and asked as to the
source of his authority In the field.
The defense raised the point that the
Testimony Of Governor Peabody was
the best evidence In this matter and
at the same time announced they
proposed now to attack the validity
of the perjury charge because Il does
not contain the allegation Of an oath.
which he declared was necessary be.
fore perjury could be proven. He i'm.
mcdiately launched into lengthy ar.
gumcnt on the point.
