A MONEY KING IN WASHINGTON.
What Did J. PierpOnt Morgan's Visit
Menn:-He Seeks Publicity NOw-Dis-
satisfaction In the West.

Mr.. J. Pierpont Morgan made a very
democratic visit to Washington, but
nevertheless stayed here a part of two
days without any outsider having as
certained just what his errand was.
He came to Washington with George
Francis Baker, President of the First
National Bank of New York City,
took dinner at the residence of First
Assistant Secretary of State Robert
Bacon, who was formerly member of
the Morgan firm. went that evening to
the residence of Secretary Cortelyou
where he talked for over an hour and
then at 10 o'clock the same evening
went to the White House, where he
talked for an hour and a half with
President Roosevelt. 1t is said that
Mr.. Morgan came on his own initiative,
but it is not the custom to make pub
lie the fact that the President invites
any big financier to Washington for
purposes of consultation.
The following day Mr.. Morgan made
two visits to the Treasury Department.
where, each time, he saw Secretary
ascribed to him. One was that he had
come over to talk about the general
situation and to ascertain just what
condition the banks of the country
were in with reference to the move
ment of crops. Another mission
ascribed to him had to do with the
issue of Treasury notes. 1t was said
that he wanted to persuade the Treas
ury Department to modify it's plan for
requiring purchasers of the Treasury
notes to deposit One-quarter of the pur-
chase money in the Treasury or the
Sub-Treasury, lest these payments
drain the cash reserves of the National
banks and add to the stringency Of
money.
