vaat comes, most people want TO
drs " their money. Western banks
call On their eastern corrcspon-
den,s to forward money and the
result is a calling IN Of loans and a
scarcity Of money in the east,
sometimes throughout the coun-
try. Oitpn the western banks
need more money than they have
on deposit in the east and they
usually borrow while the eastern
hanks Immediately seize the OPP
portanlty to charge Al cXhorbi-
ian; rate Of interest. The general
result is 10 hamper trade. Now IT
il saimed uy iinanciors that il a
aaoeme cau be devised whereby
Nj Ha'as.ie currency, can DO pro-
vidud. one that will expand 10
meet an emergency and contract
when the emergency is passed, a
material benefit will be effected.
There have been numerous
schemes devised TO provide agsipst
shortage OF currency. The Al
dricn bill oi last session, by grant
ing TO the banks the privilege OF
depositing state, county and mum
icipaI bends with the treasury and
issuing banl,-notes against such
deposits would have provided for
an Increased currency but there
was no provision which would
compel the retirement Of such in
creased currency when the emer-
geDcy was passed. The simplest
device thus far offered has for its
author Secretary Shaw. 1t would
authorize national banks to issue
bank notes equal TO % per cent OF
their capital stock, subject to a tax
of 5 per cent per anhum. Thus, II
is claimed, the banks could issue
currency when there WAS An urgen-
cy demand but would promptly
retire il when that demand had
| passed for the reason that the o
/ per cent lax would make it IN.
! prutits bic to maintain such cGr'
! poncy except when rates of inter.
est were high. Such a currency
could De put into circulation al
most instantaneously in all parts
1 oi the country and. by a unique and
simple doviee, al easily retireo
when the emergency had passed
| There is no doubt but that thi'
\ proposition will receive careful

LIPTOH BLAMES VISITORS.
His Explanation ofRumors of DIssatIs- faction With WrInEs.

New York, Sept 2.-Persistent rumors were abroad last night and this morn ing that Sir Thomas Upton had made two important assertions. First, that if there was any chance of Shamrock III. to win, he would depose Captain Wringe and put the yacht under control of Mate Bevis: and. second. that Sham rock was Sound too long after her speedy trials, and in bringing her up to the proper measurement, she had been stripped so much as to lose her speed. Sir Thomas was told of these rumors this morning. and he said with unmis- takable emphasis: T am going to reit- crate most strongly what I have said re- oeatedly. I have no criticism to make oe Captain Wringe. He has done his best for me. Is should build another boat. and come over here again, the captain of it would be Mir Wringe, and let thas be his commendation. These stories come from people who visit me on the Erin and make their own criti- cism. If don't dissent they go away and say that practically assent to the view they themselves have asserted.
 ''Now. as to the second rumor. will not deny it. It is not worth denying. Shamrock was built for me in good faith. fully as much as was Reliance for MT. Iselin. Up to the time of the first race I thought, and others thought with me, including many experts, that have fine boat Reliance is better. could not know that before the race. or else why race I have perfect faith i., ae,rr, Easy Fl crew. and we have all done and are still doing our best. s..
 T hope this may settle this vexatious controversy. Of course, I cannot stop criticism. but I do wish that adverse criticism of my fellow-workers. and my boat. made by outsiders, would not be credited to me, because I stand by and do not make vociferous dissent"

YACHT RACE POSTPONED.
Boats VIII Try Aga,n To-day Better
 Outiooh for Wind

New York, Sept. 2,The fourth at- tempt to sail what was expected to be the concluding race between Reliance and Shamrock III failed miserabiy to- day. They were not even sent across the line. Both were lowed out to Sam dy Hook lightship in a dense fog and flat calm at 10:30 and then waited two hours in the hope of a wind from some other direction than the east to blow away the fog and give them speed enough to cover thirty miles within five and 2 half hours. The dwindling fleet was reduced to just twenty-three craft. Besides the New York Yacht clubs tugs, the revenue cutters and the news paper fleet there was only one excursion steamer and a few. yachts.
 The two racing yachts held to their tow and circled about the fleet during .he wait, The calm was varied only by wind never exceeding three knots. At 12:30 the attempt was abandoned and announcement made that another trial would be made tomorrow.
 a Soon after the start homeWard the wind for the first time since the middle of last week shifted from easterly to south and began to breeze up, an indi- cation that the long easterly fog null" was breaking and that tomorrow might give the yachts the long deferred opportunity of going through the for mality of sailing the third and probably conclusive race.

SURPRISES AT COLE
Present and Former National Cham
 pIons Beaten wtih Ease.

Glen Cove, L. l., Sept. 2.-Golfers were treated to a series of surprises to-day in the national amateur golf champion ship on the links of the Nassau coun- try club. Most notable were the drop ping out of the tournament in the first match play round of Louis N. James, the present title holder, and Findlay s. Douglas, former national cham pion. Both were defeated with unex- peeted ease, and while the westerners were chagrined at the early collapse of the champion, they were compensated for it by the fact that Chicagoan, Bruce D. Smith, of the onwentsia club, defeated Douglas, while both Walter Egan and H. Chandler Egan won both their rounds. James. although a Princeton sophomore, is entered from the Glenview club, near Chicago. His game lacked snap from the start and he was beated by Archibald Graham the former New Jersey champion, by up and to play. No less severe was Douglas defeat, for Bruce Smith. who is a Yale student, beat him by 5 up and 4 to play. In the afternoon Smith beat F. c. Jennings of Garden City by 4 up and to play.
 The Bostonians received a hard shock in the defeat os their strongest golfer, A. c. Lockwood, by l.. l.. Kel- logg, Jr.,. of the Fox Hills club, Staten Island. The latter won by up and 1 to play.
 Walter J. Travis, who now looms up stronger than ever as a possible cham pion winner for the third time, had two easy matches. He first beat William Eyster of Pittsburg by 8 up and to play and then disposed of Josiah Macy of Morristown, N. J, by 6 up and ] to play.
 The committee had a busy day from early in the morning until late at night The pairings for the first round brought 12S players to the front. About a dozen matches were defaulted. The last pair in the afternoon round did not finish until it was almost tQp dark to see the ball. The two ronuds have now reduced the competitors to thirty-two and a fait idea may be gained from to-morrow's $ play regarding the probable survivors for the crucial matches late irl the week.
 F J. o. Alsop of New Haven was beaten up and l to play by Herbert L. Riker, Oakland, in the second round.

head striking and resting on the feet of Mrs. Pullen's body.
 At the first shot Dr. Edson and Mrs. Edson rushed to the door of the din- ing room, reaching there just as Edson fired the shot which ended his own life. Mrs. Edson fell to the floor in faint.
 Coroner Jackson. after making a thorough examination of the house, said that evidently the murder and suicide were premeditated, that he found let ters and other papers in Edson's pos session which showed that he had a love affair." .''
 Mr. Pullen. the husband of the mur- dered woman. who is a Yestryman of St. MichaePs church, made a statement tonight in which he branded Edson as defaulter and forger and said that he had stolen from the funds of St. Mich aePs church. He also declared that Ed son had attempted to kill Mrs. Edson. but missed and killed Mrs. Pullen by error. Mr. Pullen's statement was not borne out by the investigation of Cor oner's Physician O'Hanlon. who found powder marks on the dead woman's face showing that the pistol must have been held very close.
 Dr. Cyrus Edson. brother of the suicide. said tonight that the intima- tions of improper relations between his brother and Mrs. Pullen were absolutely false. His brother, he said, had recent ly been acting very strangely and had admitted that he was involved in fiilan- cial difficulties. His family. pr. Edson said. had become so alarmed over his mental condition that arrangements had been made to have him examined by an alienist. The shooting, Dr. Edson de- clared, was undoubtedly committed in a moment of nlaniacal frenzy.
