method OF advancing the ball TO any
extent. Molines work on offensive
was remarkabl5. and considerable i'm
provement was noticed since the game
with Rock Island.
Superior work by Moline.
The Moline boys outclassed their
opponents in weight and outraged
them at almost every point of the
game Judging from the results OF the
game in Moline Saturday, Rock Island
will close the season with victory
from Davenport on Thanksgiving day.

Maohen, lorenz and Croft Get Extreme
Penalty Of The Law.
MAcHEN's EYES were FULL,
aid To Be Probable That All OF. The
Fourteen Indictments VIII BE Tried
In The Future, But Time May Rule
Otherwise. ..

Washington, Mar. 1.-The govern
Aent has not yet decided on Its next
tep in the prosecution Of the postal
cases, in which there have been SC
many indictments returned, but it Is
not unlikely that the ether indictments
in which Machen is named, involving
other offenses than that covered by the
indictment on which he has already
been convicted, will be pressed for trial
next There are approximately four
teen indictments against Machen, eth
er singly or jointly with others, and
the government expects to bring him
to trial on most Of them.
When the cases in which the jury
brought in the verdict were called in
the crimina court, the defense moved
a new trial, but asked that the case Of
Samuel A. Croft be separately consid-
cred. The court overruled the motion
save as to Samuel A. Croft. The de.
tense than moved for arrest Of iudg-
lnent in the case Of Machen, Lorenz
and Diler Croft. This motion was
promptly overruled Exceptions to the
decisions on both motions were noted
and counsel argued the question
whether the penalties under the twelve
counts Of the indictment shonld be
cumulative or whether the various
counts should be held to constitute one
offense.
Judge Pritchard decided after recess,
holding that he could impose penalty
only under one count. The prisoners
then stood up for sentence. Machen
was first called. When the court SEN
fenced him to two years imprif onment,
the term to begin on arrival at the
penitentiary, and $4,000 fine, Ma
chen's eyes filled and he trembled
slightly as he resumed his seat. Then
he clasped his hands and sat staring
ahead of him as the other two were
given the same sentences. There are
fourteen cases against Machen, and it
seems probable that most Of them will
be prosecuted.

Are Shipped From Pacific Coast 10 tho
Philippine Islands.
10 COVER THE HIGHER LEVELS.
The Preference Of National Banks Is for
Sending Their Notes Where They
VIII Never, or Scarcely Ever, Come
Back for Redemption.

New York, Feb. 99.-An interesting
phenomenon in banking circles is the
way certain national banks on the
Pacific coast are engaged in taking out
note circulation and shipping it to the
Philippines. The war department has
no positive information, as to the rea-
sons for this, but the assumption is
that 1t means that the war in the east
has caused drain upon the Mexican
silver in the islands, and that the
Pacific coast banks are Selling this
opening for their notes, which are
actually needed to fill void, and
hence are eagerly welcomed.
For the larger denominations our
paper money is always popular on the
islands. The present emergency, it is
believed, will add to the favor in which
it is held commercially; and as the
Mexican dollar, once out Of the Philip
pines, will not be permitted to return,
our paper is bound to become fixture
and have wider and wider usefulness
as local industrial development pro-
ceeds. The ultimate result counted on
is currency system which will ap-
proximate that Of the United States,
with our paper covering the highest
levels and the local silver coinage
taking subsidiary place.
At the treasury the phenomenon is
regarded as open to another explanai
tion-the universal preference of ma
tional banks for sending their notes
where they will never, Or scarcely ever,
come back for redemption, 1t is noted
that, while California banks are ship
ping notes to the Philippines, Hawaiian
banks are sending them over to our
mainland. In Hawaii, as on our gold
coast, the people have never taken
kindly to the use of paper currency;
but the banks find profit in taking
out notes and sending them here, on
the ground that the distance is too
great to justify their return, except in |
emergencies, or when so soiled and
mutilated as to require exchange for
fresh notes. 1t is thought that possibly
the shipments from California TO the
may be explained on this
theory. The full truth may lie some
where between the two ideas,
