WILL REPORT CURRENCY BILL

House Committee Makes Two ImpOrt-
ant Changes in Bankers Bill.
WASHINGTON, Dec. T-The house COM
mittee on banking and currency decided
today to make a favorable report on
credit currency bill which Is but slightly
different from the measure advocated by
the American Bankers association. Ten
republicans attended the committee meeting
today and all supported the measure agreed
upon, while the four democrats present
opposed It, The democrats in attendance
were Representatives Glass Of Virginia,
Lewis of Georgia, Gillespie Of Texas and
Legare of South Carolina.
In the bill advocated by the bankers it
was provided that a tax of 215 per cent
should be paid by national banks on credit
currency equal to 25 per cent Of their cap
ital The committee increased the tax on
such bank notes to 3 per cent No change
was made in the provision that national
banks may also take out a further amount
of national bank guarantee credit notet
equal to 121a per cent Of its capital with
interest at the rate Of per cent.
Another change of Importance made by
the committee is one providing that ma
tional banking associations desiring tc take
out credit notes and having notes out-
standing in excess of SPY per cent o. their
paid up capital may redeem such excess
without reference to the limitation Of
s.. .OOO, 600 each month prescribed by the act
OF July II 1882.
The bill as reported extends the privilege
OF issuing credit currency only to national
banking institutions which have been in
business for one year and have a surplus
equal to 20 per cent of the capital. The
national bank guaranteed credit notes au-
thorized by the bill may be taken out for
issue without deposit Of United States
bonds as now required by law The notes
will be of form and denominations
designated by the comptroller of the cur
rency.
II the measure be passed as reported
by the house committee every l.Itional
bank meeting the requirements of the bill
will be permitted to issue emergency or
credit currency In the sum Of SS7,5OO for
every 100000 of it's capital. 1t is main
tained by the supporters Of the bill that
It will afford sufficient elasticity in the cur
rency to relieve the pressure for money
which occurs at crop moving time and in
great emergencies. Bankers estimate the
amount CT additional currency which the
measure would afford at S9OOOOOOOO.

TOTAL VOTE CAST ABOUT 100000

NEW YORK, Dec, 1S.-Probably never
before in the history of the country has
there been anything to compare with the
election In this city today of trustees for
the New York Life and the Mutual Life
Insurance companies In number of ballots
cast and in the expenditure of time and
money, the election approached that of one
Of the states of the union. Certainly no
corporation or society election ever
measured up to II in magnitude or inter
est.
The total vote cast in both companies
will approximate 10000, OF which about
100000 will be in the New York Life, in
which the contest has been more vigorously
and more bitterly waged. It is expected
that 1t will be some weeks before the votes
are counted and results Of the campaign
known.
The Equitable Life Assurance society
the Mutual Reserve Life Insurance COM
pany and the Security Mutual OF Blng-
anton also held elections today, hut as
there were no opposition tickets in the
field In these companies, the elections OF
their administration tickets were but per-
eunctory proceedings.
Officials OF both the New York Life and
the Mutual companies declared tonight that
the administration tickets had without
doubt been elected by large majorities.
The International Policyholders' commit
tee through Samuel Untermyer. It's general
counsel, expressed the conviction that the
reform tickets would win in both COM
panies, but by comparatively close mar
gins. While the ballots were being turned

II should say about october l. 1907. We
might begin delivering the order April in
a small way" he answered.
The witness said that his company shipped
s611 cars in October, 1900 cars in Novem-
ber and $50 cars in December
''The railroads get after us very sharply
when we fail to deliver orders promptly"
he said. I'VE hear from everybody, from
the president of the road to the general
freight agent.
II think the roads would place a great
many more orders II they could get prompt
delivery. We could manufacture 10 per
cent more cars in our thirteen plants II
We could get the material and labor. We
have as much difficulty in getting labor as
material The material we hnd It most
difncult to get is lumber"
''What is the price of cars now as COM
pared 18th Ave years ago?" asked Com
missioner Prouty.
"About 20 to % per cent higher"
Storage Tracks Crowded.
KANSAS CITY. Dec. 1S.-The Journal
today says that lack, not only OF cars and
locomotives but insufficient yardage, ware
houses and elevators are the causes that
have brought about freight congestion In
Kansas City and probably elsewhere.
Every freight house In Kansas City is
gorged and every storage track is crowded.
As many cars are waiting to be unloaded
or are waiting to be loaded. the loads can
not be dumped on the ground and the
eIapties cannot be loaded faster than about
90 many per day.
The roads are frequently forced to order
cars brought to Kansas City instantly
without waiting for loads because, when
tho loads arrive here there is no place
TO put them. Warehouses and elevators
must be emptied before they can be re-
hlled.
