TAKES STEPS TO INCREASE THE

SUCH A LAW.
OBJECT LESSON IN ELASTIC CURRENCY

New York, Oct 24.-Secretary
Shaw's plan to increase available cir
culation by $1S,O0O,000 through the de-
post with the government of approved
securities of that value in place OF
government bonds is interesting to
financiers, aside from the relief it is
expected to bring to the money mar
ket, in the fact that it will be dem
onstration of the benefits of an elastic
currency.
An officer of one of the leading ma
tlonal banks voiced this interest He
said he thought the plan would bring
good results as an object lesson in
elastic currency. He thought that the
working cut of the plan would serve
to demonstrate to congress the ad-
vantages that would follow the adop-
ton of scheme of elastic currency.
Congress may also be
Influenced by This Experiment
to repeal the law which row limits
the requirement Of nations! bank cir
culation to S30o0,000. This official
said that his own bank would certainly
take out all the circulation TO which it
may be entitled under this rlan and
he thought that most other banks
holding government deposits would
take their share of the Icw circula-
ton.
Secretary Shaw's plan for an in.
crease in circulation provides for the
substitution to the extent Of flG,000,-
600 of approved securities, other than
government, for government bonds
now pledged as security for govern
ment deposits. 1t is provided that the
bonds so released shall Immediately
be used TO take out additional national,
bank circulation

R.1GERS CAPTURED BY PHOENIX POLICE
Man and Woman Break Down and Confess When Thrown
 into Jail.

PHOENIX. Oct. S.-The Phoenix police last night jailed a man who is undoubtedly guilty of forgery here and may be professional crook, and a woman who claims to be his wife. and who is at least guilty of helping her husband dispose of some forged checks here yesterday, whether she has ever been mixed up in criminal matters before or not. In her own defense she says the two were with out funds and the man made her pass the forged checks. an enterprise she l undertook last night for the first time.
 The woman was arrested. under the name of Mrs. Charles w. Clark, early in the evening. and the man was ar rested well toward midnight at the Ford hotel. where he had retired after registering under the name of IA. Fred Weng He said after arrest that his home was in Salt Lake City and that his name is David Nj. .Baer About 6 o'clock last evening S. J. Tribolet reported to the police that a woman had passed check at his meat market for SIS and that he believed it to be spurious How he discovered that fact was not learned. He described the woman. and the night police at once began a search for her. About : o'clock she was To- cated in the HIb clothing store, and as she left .he place was put under arrest. Il was learned then that she had just made ss.ze parchase and tendered another SIS check, which was cashed. She had s1e.75 when ar rested. The check passed at the Hub was drawn on the National Bank of Arizona. It was made payable to C. w. Clark or bearer and signed P. J. Keiser. It was endorsed in the back in lead pencil by Charles w. Clark. It was a check for the same amount passed at Tribolet's. and though the particulars were net learned. it was presumably made out the same way A third check for the same amount was passed in store at the corner of Third and Washington sJce1ts.
 At the station the woman said she was very sorry and knew she was dcing wrong, but that she was forced to do so by her husband. whom she feared. Asked for the motive, she said that they were simply without money and her hus.and adopted this method of raising it She said they had room at the Nordrach, and thith- Ter the police repaired in the hope of finding the man. aney learned that the couple had been there one night. and yesterday had moved their baggage out.
