Naval Militia Nav Shoot.

Washington, D. C.-Attorney Gen.

opinion to the acting secretary of war
holding, in effect, that the naval mill.
tia of the United States is a part Of
the organized militia, which, if &C.
cepted by the department, will give
an opportunity for teams from the ma.
val militia to enter the rifle contests
at Camp Perry, o., during this month.
Last year the war department held
that the naval boys were not entitled
to participate in the rifle contests, and
there is considerable complaint in
consequence.

CHICAGO, Now 21.--That twenty of
the memorandum notes discounted by
the Chicago National bank, represent
ing the sum of $1,S4O,0OO remained un-
paid when the bank suspended in De-
cember, 1905, and that many of the
notes declared by the defendant to have
been paid at maturity were not paid,
but simply renewed, were facts brought
out today in the trial of John r. Walsh,
charged with misapplication of the
banks funds.
On the redirect examination of Ma
tional Bank Examiner Moxey the same
process of Identification of entries in
the books of the bank which was pur-
sued in the direct examination was
carried out. The witness identified en-
tries showing discounted notes paid to
show that the obligations were met
when due. Another register, however,
indicated that on the precise dates that
payments were made new notes for the
same amounts were made. The collat-
eral book also was used to show that
the security for the new notes was the
same as for the old ones.
Evidence was also introduced to show
that the notes were drawn and signed
in the various names as previously in
troduced by bank employees at the direc-
tion of Mr.. Walsh.

ALLOTMENT
OF BIG ISSUE
HAS BEGUN
VOLUME OF SUBSCRIPTIONS
KEPT SECRET
DISCRIMINATION SHOWN TO BEN
Eft MARKET
CorteIyou Fears No Criticism If Dis
tribution Is Based on Binding
Assurances of National
Banks

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2t.-Announce-
ment was made by Secretary Cortelyou
this afternoon that allotments had all
ready begun for the new one-year treas
ury certificates for which subscriptions
were invited in the circular of the treas
ury department issued on Monday. AL
lotments on the Panama bonds will not
be made, according to the terms of the
circular relative to them, until after all
bids are submitted at the close of busi-
ness on November 80.
The secretary intimated this afternoon
that applications for both bonds and GER
tificates were being received in satisfac-
tory amounts, but he was not prepared
as yet to disclose the volume of sub
scriptions and allotments. One reason
for this is understood to be that there
are so many inquiries for information
from persons who do not submit definite
subscriptions. Another reason is that
allotments are being made with a certain
degree of discrimination, where it is be-
lieved they will have the best effect on
the money market
The nominal cash balance Of the treas
ury stood today at only $S,952 412, after
deducting the amount of public money
on deposit in national banks.
The matter of allotments is proving a
somewhat delicate one, and care is be-
ing taken to avoid any well founded
charges of favoritism. 1t is felt at the
treasury, however, that no just criticism
will lie against the action of the secre-
tary If allotments are based chiefly upon
binding assurances by national banks
that they will take out new circulation
to the full amount of the certificates al
lotted to Them

love you tonight and will be in your
arms before you know it,
A portion OF a letter of August was
devoted to politics in Utah and Senator
Brown said: Everything seems against
the Kearns crowd. don't believe / have
any show for senator. These stories are
so vicious about you and me and about
my drinking. Let us get through with
our great task and then the world will
forgive and l will not drink. We then
can arrange for a year where we wish"
Mrs. Bradley wrote: '"The senator came
to Bellevue. We spent three weeks to-
gether. We then went to Salt Lake and
to the hospital. Were there a month"
September 30 is the date of a note from
the senator which evidently refers to a
contest in court over his and Mrs. Brad
iey's cases. He says:
1--WE Are Victorious"
"A day of wretchcdness and fight but
on the whole we are victorious. The
papers of our arrest are fatally defective.
On the dismissal, which Is inevitable, we
have additional grounds for divorce. We
have world of riends Let us hold to-
gether and all will be right. Madam
cannot convict and the failure will be
additional grounds
In letter of October /, Brown speaks
of the publication Of interviews by Mrs.
Brown regarding the case against him
and he makes the prediction that She'll
find that her innocent gable will come
back to plague her." He adds: 81 have
not changed toward you in thought, love
or purpose, but will press steadily on,
loving and caring for you until we can
be united and then will love you forever.
Don't doubt. 1 have shown my fidelity
until no one else doubts"
October 3 Brown tells her that he has
made no compromise and adds: Madam
says she will send us both to the peni-
tentiary. She is very bitter. The only
talk about compromise is the imagination
of reporters
Writing November b. he said: II have
written you letter after letter today and
now destroy them all. love you L love
you too much to even send the bitterness
of my thoughts about the T. and w.
VIII you get a divorce from them?"
He demonstrated with her about fail
ing to write about the AFFIDAVIT from the
farm in Idaho where she was staying,
saying:
You seem to have forgotten the farm,
your duty and children What has come
over you? Why don't yor look after
things and advise me and help me? /

the same passionate love always drives

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-Considerable
improvement in financial, Industrial COM
mercial and manufacturing conditions is
indicated in reports from various centers
in the United States which have been
received by r. G. Dun and company.
Some of the cities where the financial
stringency was most severly felt week
ago have a steadily increasing supply of
currency and as result business in
general is in a}more satisfa ctory state.
The increase in currency supplies at
Minneapolis has made 1t possible for the
large elevator concerns to resume the
purchase of grain and as result trade
is assuming normal proportions. Collec-
tions are moving more freely and the
disturbance in money matters appar-
emily has passed. The restriction gov
erning deposits in Cleveland savings
banks is to be lifted. At Boston COM
mercial and industrial conditions are
hopeful
Boston, cincinnati Baltimore, Cleve-
land and some other cities report good
retail business. Although the currency
supply is much larger than a week ago
in Philadelphia, the financial stringency
restraints activity in the wool market.

extract:

The Militia I'm joint Manuuvres.

Our militia or volunteer reserve, if the
citizen soldiery a be so called, has been
winning encomiums from the Regular
army officers since the Dick law went
into effect. After taking notes Of the
work of the Massachusetts, militia, which
has been engaged in the defence of Boston
harbor as a support to the artillery gar
risons, Lieutenant Colonel ERASMUS NJ.
WEAVER, U. S. A, assistant o the chief
of artillery, makes this handsome and
doubtless veracious acknowledgment Of
the efficiency Of the citizen soldiers:
The Massachusetts, militia. which participated
in the exercises. constitutes a inner body Of men
than can be found anywhere else In the militia Of
the country. They developed a decided capacity
for manning the coast defence fortlncations and
handling the heavy guns and intricate machinery
connected Herewith, which IL more than has been
displayed by other militia organizations on similar
occasions"
Colonel WEAVER does not hesitate 10
say that the coast artillery reserves
would be certain to give an excellent
accoun Of themselves in case Of a for
eign naval war" This unsolicited testi-
mony should be most gratifying to friends
of the volunteer soldier, because Colonel
WEAVER is a stalwart advocate of the
creation of an army reserve, and he did
not entirely approve Of the Dick law
when enacted, maintaining that il did
not go far enough in Matchmaking the
militia. Colonel WEAVER proposed that
the Federal Government provide armo-
ries and equipment for the militia, and
that il should be placed virtually under
the orders of the War Department as an
army reserve.
mote the efficiency Of the militia. IL
does not give the Federal Government
a quasi control over the militia, such as
Colonel WEAVER contended for, but it
provides for the Standardization of it on
Regular army lines as TO equipment and
training, for inspection and instruction
by Regular army officers, and for joint
manruvres, offering the States which
cooperate with the national Govern
ment a share of an annual Federal
appropriation. Some of the States have
been slow TO take advantage of the
opportunities held out to them by the
Dick law for various reasons. among
them no doubt a reluctance TO allow their
State guards to be helped by the national
Government. But the Improvement of
the militia when brought into contact
and competition with Regulars under the
provisions of the law has been so mani
fest that there ought 10 be no more
