pend on It's Fleet-Poor Con-
dition of Exchequer.

Berlin.--Gern,aps are threatened with
an extra duty on their two most cele-
brated luxuries, their cigar aud their
glass OF beer.
Baron Won stengel, the imperial min
lister OF finance, says the exchequer Ia
in a deplorable condition and must be
replenished at all costs. Baron Won
Stengel's greatest trouble is how best
TO stop the mouth Of the admiralty with
greater gifts. The kaiser and his ad-
mirals are crying for more ships, more
big ships, and insisting that these be
built at an accelerated pace.
why cannot we build as fast as the
Amerlcans?" he asked Admiral Torpitz
the other day So Won Stengel, driven to
his last refuge, has decided TO tax cigars
and beer He hopes TO raise an extra

these stories have turned out to be se-
less. Now Il is understood tina the
prince is actually getting togethN a
racing stud and that his colorsf next
year may be seen on the turf.
More than one purchase was made for
the prince at the Doncaster sale, and Il
is believed that when Lord Marcus
Beresford purchased Cynasure, q colt
by Cyilene Nenemoosha. an own broth
er TO cyanean. for $4,000. after keen bid
ding. he was acting for the future king
of England. ~
II has been traditional with th..kings

the tradition. He is known not TO take
any particular interest In tn sport, and
Is generally regarded as 'douP per-

the fact that Il is polite 20 be popular.
His father is past master Of this art,
and has been trying to instil some OF
his knowledge and experience into his
son, but without very great success.
The papers speak OF the popular
prince OF Wales" but they know as a
matter Of fact that he is not.

CHAIRMAN F0WLER'S REPORT
ON THE CURRENCY BILL

Washington, Dec. 20.--Chairman Fow-
Ter OF the house committee on bank
Ing and currency submitted to the
house today his report on the credit
currency bill agreed upon by the COM
mittee. The reporte reiterates the COM
mttee's assertions that bank book
credits are identical with bank note
credits. and that It should be at the OPP
ton Of the deposltor OF a bank TO say
whether he shall have current credit
Of the bank or book subject to his
check. The report continues:
Your committee asserts that 1t Is i'm
material whether the obligations Of q
bank are In the form Of deposits sub
ject TO check or of credit bank notes,
providing that the reserves are ample
and the same amount Is required for the
protection Of each. With the same free
dom on the part of the bank to issue
Its credit notes that 1t has to accept
deposits subject to check. the habits OF
q people will determine whethe the de-
posits Of bank or Its credit notes are
the larger"
The advantages Of credit currency
are set forth by the report as follows:
ut will lower and equalize rates OF
interest throughout the United states.
ut WIN make rates practically uni
form throughout the year.
1T will give to the country districts
as economical credit as the cities en-
Joy, where checks are chiefly used
ut Will give TO people who use cur
rency In their smaller purchases as eco
nomlcal credit as enjoyed by those who
use checks In their larger transactions.
ut viii make 1t possible for the banks
generally to serve such Of their custo-
n1ers AS may want currency without
disturbing their reserves to the great
injury OF other customers who have
loans which must be paid before the
currency can be advanced for II Is I'M
material to a bank whether II owes a
depostor or note holder.
ut will almost invariably prevent
panic and viii always avert a ruinous
crisis.
"If at any time contraction OF cred
its becomes necessary because too much
OF the commercial fund has been d.
verted and transformed into the invest
ment fund, a credit currency will facll-
itate liquidation without that destruc-
ton of values incident to fixed guam
tlty OF currency such as we now have"

KANSAS-C0L 0RA00
IRRIGATION CONGRESS

Washington, Dec. 0.--Atty.- Gen,
Miller Of Colorado today began the re-
butting argument for that state in the
Kansas-Colorado irrigation case on trial
IN the supreme court Of the United States.
His argument was intended to support
the Colorado law Of water appropriation,
out he also contended that under the COM
mon law prevailing in that state the ap
propriation Is sustained. he claimed that
ven under the general law the state has
4 right 10 use the waters within Its bor-
ders for beneficial purposes under the
ne Of priority OF appropriation. He de-
Olared there was practically no testimony
% show that Kansas had suffered any
Iamage, the only real question Involved.
The last address In the interest or
Colorado was made by Atty. Joel +. Vale
Of Denver, who contended that the court
must necessarily deal with the question
-nder existing law and not as consti-
utional convention called to frme funda-
mental laws Of the interested states, Colo
ado proceeding under the law Of appro-
priation and Kansas under the common
.aw regulating riparian rights, but quot
ed a recent decision Of the supreme court,
4 the latter state TO show that even the
common law Is coming 70 be interpreted
50 as TO make 1t conform 10 circumstances
md conditions. He said In this case the
Kansas court had held that riparian
.ght includes water for the irrigation OF
iparian lands, and further that riparian
ands extend to the divide OF the water
shed OF a given stream.
IT, said MIR, Vale, that Is true, the
case Of Kansas falls
Atty.-Gen. Coleman Of Kansas fol-
lowed Mr.. Vale, replying to the Colo
RADIO contention that that state could not
properly be made the defendant In the
present proceeding.
+. Dumont Smith OF Kinsley, spea king
for Kansas, made the last argument OF
he series, He made plea for an equlta-
ole distribution OF the Arkansas waters
rs between the states and urged the righ
OF the court TO perform this function, He
suggested the California usage In the dis
tr.bution Of water as the proper basis Tor
