BANKING LEGISLATION.
Measures Approved by q Committee OF the
American Association.


WASHINGTON, March 1e.-The committee
on bank legislation appointed by the Ameri-
can Bankers Association at its recent
meeting in Washington has been in con-
sultation with the Finance Committee of
the Senate and the Committee on Banking
and Currency of the Hous and has made
various recommendations.
The committee approves the action of
the House committee in favorably re-
porting the Shartel bill, which permits
loansto be made to a single firm or individual
to the extent of 10 per cent. of the capital
and 10 per cent. of an amount of surplus
equal to the capital, not exceeding in total
20 per cent. of the capital.
The committee also supported the real
estate bill introduced by Representative
Lewis of Georgia, permitting national
banks to loan an amount aggregating
rs per cent. of their capital and surplus.
The committee also indorsed a clean
interior may send bills for exchange, unfit
for circulation, by registered mail with
out expense. They also favored issuance
Of IS gold certificates as a means of fur
nishing a sufficient amount of small bills
to the country.
The committee suggested for the con-
sideration of the members of the Finance
Committee of the Senate and the Banking
and Currency Committee Of the House the
a~dvisability of permitting national banks,
under special provisions. to qualify by
making. a deposit of securities, as is now
the law in several different States, per-
hitting them to act in trust capacities
for the purpose Of meeting the competition
Of trust companies in certain localities.

Accounting When Wlfe's Letter Opened
Her Eyes-Murder TO Hide Theft.
Mrs. Ida Morrison, sister Of Estelle Young
the former chorus girl, who was murdered
on Thursday by August Nosser, a Tender
ioin gambler, appeared at the Coroner's
Office yesterday morning to claim the per-
sonal effects OF her sister. They consisted
Of diamonds valued at over $40 900, a mufi
and the rawhide horsewhip with which
Miss Young intended to give Nosser a
thrashing. Coroner Acritelli informed Mrs
Morrison that it would be necessary to OBJ
tain an order from the Surrogate for the
delivery Of the property.
Mrs. Morrison told the Coroner that her
sister had intrusted about $7,0 0 in cash to
Nosser for speculation in stocks INC that
he had assured Miss Young that he had
made about S12 600 for her by a lucky turn
in the market. Mrs. Morrison declared
that for several days before the murder and
suicide Nosser had been promising to settle
with her sister, but had failed TO do 80, and
that she had come to believe she had been
duped. Nosser, she said, had named a Wall
Street broker at whose office he said he had
placed her account, and he handed Miss
Young several kilograms purporting to
show that he had closed out several trans
actions at a profit.
On the day Of the murder and suicide
Miss Young was expecting a note from Nos
ser telling her Of a place where he was to
pay her what was due. When therefore,
she received instead a letter from Nosser's
wife, she believed that it was but part Of a
scheme to do her out of her money. I'm
mediately after receiving Mrs. Nosser's
letter, Miss Young went direct to the Nos
sers' apartment. only, stopping to buy the
rawhide whip. That she didn't use this was
probably due to the fact that she found
Nosser was not bluf1ng, out really had a
wife. Mrs. Morrison's statement respecting
her sisters partnership with Nosser in a
stock transaction seems to be c~orroborated
by a memorandum in Nosser's handwriting
found in Miss Young's handbag. 1t was a
statement of alleged profits in Amalga-
mated Copper and other stocks. At the
bottom of a column of figures were the
words my share and your share"
1t was Mrs. Morrison's opinion that when
Nosser was confronted with his perfdy
and realized that he would next be called
upon to make good the money intrusted
to him bys Miss Young, he saw in suicide
his only escape.
At the Pierrepont, As West Thirty-second
street, it was learned that Mrs. Nosser had
been Frustrated ever since the tragedy,
and that she was apparently oblivious to
that in the five weeks that Nosser had been
in the hotel his wife had not been out of her
rooms more than three times. During the
absence of her husband which averaged
several days at a time, she refused to eat
and spent her time in weeping.
1t Is planned to ship the body Of Miss
Young to Memphis to-day for burial.

DIDN'T ATTACK BRITISH PEOPLE.
Baron MOncheur Only Criticised English
Missionaries In the Congo Free State.

Missionaries In the Congo Free State.
WASHINGTON, March 10. -James G. White
ley, Consul General of the Congo Free State
to the United States, in commenting o
a statement made by Baron Moncheur, the
Belgian Minister here, which has been con-
strued as In attack upon the British people
and which was brought up on the floor of
the House Of Commons a day or two go,
said that there has been a Misrepresentation
of what was actually said:
The fact is that Baron Moncheur really
crit icized only the attitude of certain mis-
sionaries. 1t has been alleged that Baron
Moncheur accused the English of having
Interior political motives for attacking the
Belgian administration Of Congo affairs.
Mr.. Whitley said;
There is evidently some misrepresentation
n England in regard to Baron Moncheur' is
remarks. He criticised neither the British
Government nor the British people. He
simply expressed his opinion about the
motives and manners, or lack OF manners
of a few English missionaries who have
abused the hospitality shown them by the
Congo Free State.
These men cannot claim to represent in
any way the British nation. Shielded
by their cloth, they themselves have heaped
the most outrageous and unwarranted
insults upon King Leopold and upon nearly
every one in his service. Yet, when any
BODY criticizes their conduct they run to
Parliament and get some kind,hearted
member to take up their case. Thu atti-
tude of the British Government has been
always extremely correct.
Il have the highest admiration for the
English race, and Ifeel sure that the British
public will not approve thep% political or COM
mercial ambitions Of any missionary who
goes into the territory OF a friendly nation
and makes trouble. There ia no danger,
l think, that either the British nation or
the British public will feel aggrieved simply
because an English missionary has been

LOTS OF WORK FOR LIVER
Manufacturer, Scavenger, Filter, Life
Preserver and Closed Door.

The business of the liver is TO manu-
facture antidotes for poisons, II is a
rendering establishment TO which the
little corpses that accumulate In the
body are carried to be destroyed just
as in cities dead animals are gathered
up by a scavenger and converted into
useful things
cry six weeks. Every second OF our
lives something like lS,000000 OF these
red cells have to be disposed OF. and
the liver does part of the work Of
grinding them UP and working them
over into something useful.
The red corpuscles have potash IL
them. which is used for making bile.
The bile is a kind OF lye for making
soap In the small intestines. The soap,
Ike all good homemade soaps. is dis
infectant; 1t is a splendid ant!septic
and germicide.
The coloring matter is carefully saved
out OF these red cells, and sent back
into the body to be used for iyeing the
hair, tintins the skin, and painting the
dark chambers Of the eye where the
rhotographing is done.
II the liver does not do this work as
efficiently as 1t ought, these little
corpses accumulate in the body. In
other words. the body becomes q sepul-
cher and we carry about with us dead
Things that should have been dis
charged from the body through the
bowels, the kidneys. the Skin and the
lungs, and should have returned to dust
again.
The liver is a closed door which keeps
poisons out OF the rest Of the body. The
Kidneys, skin and lungs are open doors
TO let the Poisons escape from the body.
When there comes such a food upon
the liver II cannot keep the door shut;
1t is forced open a little way and let's
the poisons through into the blood.
Then the blood is rot purified, the
impurities go through and the body
becomes filed with them, The brain
becomes confused. dull, stupid and the
man feels bilious, the poisons get into
the muscles, and he feels weary and
worn out, they get into the nerves and
lie has sciatica or lumhago: the nerve
centers get irritable and inefficient and
there is nervous exhaustion, and per-
haDs melancholia.
All the food taken into the stomach
is filtered by the liver before * Is abb
sorbed. That is why one can. with ap-
parent impunity, take such things as
tea and coffee, whisky. beer. tobacco,
etc. All these impurities are passed
through the liver before they get into
The general circulation. II they should
go straight to the brain the drinkers
would all be dead shortly after taking
his first glass OF whisky
When the liver Is plump and healthy,
full of glycogen made from the blood,
1t has wonderful faculty of destroy
ing poisons but a starved liver cannot
do this, That Is why glass of whisky
taI-en before breakfast does man
twice as much harm a. tf taken cfter
breakfast,
a dose Of medicine taken on an empty
stomach Is much more powerful in Its
effects that similar dose taken when
the stomach is full. for the reason that
a full stomach furnishes the liver with
material which II makes use of to fight
poisons,-Sandow's Magazine

SAVES LIFE OF MAN
BY SKIN GRAF TING
Twelve-Y Year-0ld Daughter Sac
rifices Herself TO His
Great Need.

NEW YORK, July 2e.-The life OF q
dying man, whose skin had been burned
from all his right side, was saved by
the devotion OF a score OF his friends
who had their arms operated upon TO
replace his loss.
The fire victim Is George S. kilby OF
No. 50 Gates avenue Brooklyn, and
among those who permitted skin TO be
taken from their bodies was his twelve
year-old daughter. Lucia.
The skin grating was performed by DR..
Herbert c. Allen OF No. 304 Clermont
avenue, and he believes Kilby viii live.
Two months ago. while shaving at his
homo, Kilby overturned an oil lamp and
his clothing was ignited. He fed down
stairs. His wife hearing his cries,
wrapped him in a shawl and eXtinsuished
the flames But he had been burned
about the arms. legs and right side. At
first It was thought he could not live,
but later it was suggested that skin
grating might save him. A number OF
his friends offered themselves, and from
these thirty pieces were cut, In all he
was patched up with Ala pieces OF skin,
Dr. Allen also gave to his patient from
his own arm.
Ten pieces OF skin were taken from the
arm OF the daughter. When she heard
that this would save her fathers life, she
smiled and bravely declared that she
would give the necessary cutlcle.
