FURRY TO END SOON
Treasury Officials Pleased
With Developments in
the Situation.

Washington, D. c.. Dec. 2.-Develop-
ments of the last week have made the
treasury officials and banking circles
in general confident that the financial
conditions soon will return to their
normal state
The resumption of a cash basis and
the retirement of the emergency cur
rency in the different cities are ex-
pected during this month and reports
from the different financial centers in
dictate there will be no runs when this
date arrives.
The governments action in pro-
posing S15O,O0o,00O in new bond issues
has proven its worth so well that the
officials have cut the amount to be is
sued to half that amount. It is prob
able also that the issues of new bank
note circulation will fall considerably
within some of the earlier estimates,
because of the abundance of currency
which will be available when currency
payments are resumed.
Bankers Report Funds Plentiful.
Since the Panama bonds will be held
bv the treasury as security for the
public money which is paid for them
and left on deposit with the purchas-
ing banks, the bonds are not expected
to be deposited to their entire amount
for new bank note circulation. They
can only be so deposited by substi-
tuting other classes of bonds as Sc
curity for deposits OF public money.
While this would have been done If
the new circulation had been required
i is now expected that it will not be
done to anything like the full issue of
bonds.
If public money is withdrawn from
the banks in the spring the bonds will
be released and can be substituted as
security for circulation issued against
the one year certificates if the latter
were then paid off with interest to
the date of payment.
Many bankers have reported cash re-
serves in their institutions much in ex-
cess of legal requirements. Evidence
that pressure for currency is diminish

New York clearing house banks or

STARTS LONG CRUISE
Battleship Louisiana Will
be First to Arrive at
Evans Rendezvous.

New York, Dec Ready in every
detail for the long voyage. the battle
ship Louisiana, the TO- 600 ton pride of
the American navy, will sail at dawn
from the Brooklyn navy yards for
Halifax. There it viii rendezvous

The Louisiana will be the first man

the cruise. 1t carries in its maya
zines 100000 pounds OF ammunition
for its own and other vessels use, and
is manned by nearly 1000 men.
Gum Crews Score Victory.
The sailing of the Louisiana is ac-
companied by news from Washington
that the gun crews of the vessel made
practically a clean sweep at the re-
cent target practice for ships of its
class
In navy prizes and ship awards the
men behind the Louisiana's guns won
nearly $4,000 This included first prize
with the 12-inch guns, first and sec
ond prizes with the S-inch rifles, and
third prize with the side battery of
7-inch guns. With the 12-inch guns
the Louisiana's crew made percentage
OF approximately 72.S. This means
big shells. for the allowances for hits
to the Louisiana are placed lower than
100. this being done in order to bring
the ships with rifles of lesser power
on equal terms in the competition for
battleship trophies.
Vermont Next at Rendezvous.
The amount of ammunition stored
aboard the Louisiana will be duplicated
on all the vessels of it's class, includ-
ing the Connecticut, flagship of Rear
Adimarl Robley D. Evans; the Kan

While this store seems large, it would
be increased by at least one-quarter If

NO WAR m PORTUGAL
Reports of Internal Conflict
Are Disproved by
Investigation.

Lisbon Dec 2.-The baseless char
acter of the alarmist rumors repre-
senting that Portugal was on the eve
of civil war and revolution has been
fully established by the independent
investigation of a staff correspondent
of the Associated Press.
There seems never to have been the
slightest excuse. for the stories cir
culated from the frontier that the king
was a prisoner in the castle, that the
navy had mutinied. A strong suspicion
exists that such reports were part of
campaign of Premier Frances enemies,
Instituted in order to create distrust
abroad in the country's financial posi-
tion and thus discredit and bring about
the downfall Of the premier at home.
Nothing could be more peaceful than
the appearance of the country through
which the Associated Press correspon-
dent travelled from Madrid to Lisbon.
The American minister. Charles Page
Bryan, who has just returned from
350-mile business trip through the
country, observed similar tranquility
everywhere.
Yesterday was a national holiday,
commemorative of the downfall of
Spanish dominion, and it was cele-
brated as usual, although troops We're
held in reserve to break up any at
tempt at political manifestation.
Nevertheless. Portugal is passing
through a history making epoch, from
political point of view. 1t is neces-
sary to keep clearly in mind that what
has happened and is happening is en-
tirely over the heads of patient, hard
working people, so per cent of whom
are illiterate and seemingly Indifferent
to the battle which Franco is waging,
almost single-handed, against practi-
cally the entire political organization
Of the country, with the avowed pur-
pose of ending the intolerable condi-
ton of party politics which has bred
abuses and a system of graft that
would make the most corrupt city ring
in America blush with envy. Society
women served on the pay rolls, but
nowhere else.
The royal family was reduced to such
straits that the king. after mortgaging
the family fortune, appealed for ad-
vances from the treasury The civil
list provided only $500, 900 for the keep
ing up of the palaces. the maintaining
of royal dignity, the entertainment of
the nations guests, contributions to
charity, etc The debt of the royal
family to the government was $780,
600 when Franco came into power
eighteen months ago. In the face of
strong opposition Franco determined
to resign, but the king granted him
power to govern by decree.

IRON TRADE PINCHED
Curtailment in Productions
is Reported Generally
st. Louis Men Idle.

Cleveland, o., Dec. Among man
ufacturers of iron, steel, machine tools.
and machinery there is a general be-
lief that the present depression will
not be SO prolonged as in previous per
iods of stagnation in business. Care
full inquiry made by correspondents of
the Iron Trade Review in many cities
of the United States indicates a some
what better feeling, especially as to
financial conditions.
There will, however, be further cur
tailment of production, especially in
pig iron, steel and semi finished pro-
ducts but aside from plants which
manufacture such products the num-
bers of closed concerns are not large,
although there is general reduction
of the hours of working and of the
number of employees.

per cent of the furnaces have been put
out of blast within a few weeks. The

has fifty of its ninety-five workable
furnaces out of blast and several more
are expected to be blown out within
a few days.

pany will start it's Youngstown plants
tomorrow, and has resumed operations
at its East St Louis plant with one
third of the number Of employees.
With approximately 10000 men out of
employment in ST. Louis and 10000 in
East St. Louis, and the announcement
that the various industries of the North
American company in St. Louis will
lay off an additional 1900 men, comes
the cheering announcement that the St.
Louis Terminal railroad association will
expend 100000 in the construction of
viaducts, tracks and bridges. In East
St Louis the American Aluminium
works is idle with 1000 men out Of
employment.
The American Steel Foundries plant
at Granite City, Ill. is closed down
permanently. In Cincinnati nd vicin-
ity there have been very few actual
shutdowns. but many plants are run
ming with reduced forces on short time.
Unified orders are sufficient to keep
the plants going for another thirty days

MEXICAN WOMAN
 STRANGELY HURT
Bottle Thrown in tho Darkness Strikes Josefa Marquez in the Stomach, and Knocks Her Completely out-Her Groans Attract Attention.

Josefa Marquez, Mexican woman was the victim of strange and pain ful accident Monday evening in the Bakervile Mexican settlement, when she was struck in the stomach by a flying bottle and for a time suffered so much that it was feared her injuries might be serious, says the Tucson Star
 As in ali Mexican settlements there was joy and good cheer on the ami versary of their independence and there was a celebration in nearly every tent or shack. As the woman was passing through the settlement some party of celebrators commenced skylarking and throwing missiles. Among the objects thrown was the bottle which missed its object and came sailing through the darkness taking her by surprise and knocking her out completely. Her groans soon attracted friends to her who had to work over her for several hours before she was quite herself again. It was purely an accident, as she was passing along unseen and un- noticed when the bottle was thrown.
