NO RELIEF IN HIGH
MONEY RATE.

NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-An opening
call loan rate of 20 per cent at the
Stock Exchange showed less relief
from the money stringency than was
hoped for among stock operators as
the result of the Treasury Department g
order to facilitate gold imports. AS
the measure is made effective only for
next Monday 1t does not offer means
for an immediate addition TO bank re-
sources. The assurance of future ia
cilities, however, was expected to in
duce a greater freedom in extending
credits. Stocks opened higher, stim-
ulated by the news of the Treasury or
der, but were affected by realizing
sales and by the high rate maintained
for money.
Bankers interested in Secretary
Shaw's gold Importation order made in
quiries at the Sub treasury today as
to whether or not the order applied to
importations of gold from Australia.
the inquiries were referred to the
Treasury Department at Washington.

100000 to San Francisco by telegraph.
WASHINGTON, Sept. En- answer
to an inquiry today Secretary Shaw
said in explanation of his offer yes
terday to facilitate gold imports that
it would apply to gold imported from
Australia or any other point. The inn
porters, however. from far distant
countries will be required to file with
the Treasury Department evidence of
the fact of the purchase, giving the

DEFENDS PILGRIM
FATHERS FAME.

PLYMOUTH. Sept. 6.-"The name of
Alden will be a living, throbbing part
of American history when that OF John
D. Long has again sunk to the obliv-
ion from which il has for the moment
emerged" is the answer today of VIII
liam A. Blossom of Boston, president of
the Alden Kindred in America, to the
recent address of former Governor John
B. Long in which he assailed the char
acter and habits of the Pilgrim Fathers.
1t was at the thirtieth anniversary
of the founding of the First Church in
August that former Governor Long
made his address and it was in that
same building today that President
Blossom of the Alden family took up
the gauntlet then thrown down. He
did not characterize most of Mr. Long
charges as untrue, but he left no doubt
in the minds of the 200 odd who heard
him that he considered that the former
Governor went out of his way to de-
liver a body blow to the character of
the forefathers which was in no way
justified by the facts or by the oc-
casion.

Josie Meehan of Red

Threatening Suicide.

REDWOOD CITY. Sept s-"Mamma
l am dead. Do not look for me, for
you viii not find me- JOSIE"
Pinning this strange note on the
covering of the sewing machine. little
Josie Meehan. the 12-year-old daughter
of Mrs. Annie Meehan. disappeared
yesterday afternoon. and although all
the peace officers of San MateO County
looked for all night slight trace of her
has been found.
About midnight Mrs. Jameson q
Redwood City reported to the Sheriff
that she had seen the child at San
Mateo as Mrs. Jameson was returning
from the city. Deputies were at once
sent to San Mateo. but no trace OF the
missing girl could be found
Josie is one Of a large family OF
children. who are, with the exception
of a couple of the older girls. entirely
dependent upon the small earnings OF
a widowed mother for support In or
der to make the two ends meet. the
mother is compelled TO leave the chill
dren to themselves during the day
and make what small earnings she can
in laundry
Before leaving the house yesterday
morning, the mother is alleged to have
scolded Josie for misconduct the day
previous. for which the child cried most
of the day. About o'clock her sister
Agnes. returning from work, met her
going towards the depot. The child
stopped the older sister and told her
to look upon the sewing machine and
she would find something for her.
As soon as the sister found the note,
she returned in search OF the child
but Josie had gone
The mother is inclined to believe
that some one has enticed the child from
her home and is probably holding her
in hiding at the present time. AS the
child had no money. il is not likely
that she could have left the city and
few people who are acquainted with
Josie take any stock in the suicide
story.
II the child were really seen in San
Mateo last night il is probable she was
waiting for train for the city. Work
ing on this theory. Sheriff's Deputies

sent to the city, but returned without
the slightest trace of the child.
