CONFERENCE OF
 L. & N. OFFICIALS
POINT TO ACTIVE FIGHT AGAINST THE NEW RAIL ROAD LAWS BY PRESIDENT SMITH.

Montgomery, November 24-(Specal.)- Milton IT. Smith. president of the Louis vile and Nashville railroad, reached the city from Louisville today, where he was joined by Former Congressman s. J. Bowie. special adviser in the rail r. road legislation of recent date. General Counsel Stone was here already, all Of which lends color to the impression that the Louisville and Nashville will keep up the fight in the courts to prevent the new state rates from becoming operative.
 None of them nor the local attorneys would talk for publication, but 1t ap- pears from what can be heard that the contest is not to be over soon Cover nor Conner is not expected back before Tuesday at which time he will probably approve all of the railroad bills, none of which have so far been signed.

circulation, the object of this provision being to prevent any decline in the mar ket value of bonds by the development of preference for the new form of cir culation. Probably all the bonds pledged by the banks to circulation would be taken care of under either of these two plans.
 The plan of further issues upon new types of bonds which are not now ac- ceptable under the law, finds support among those who believe the bank notes should not be issues except upon specific security which Is out of the custody of the bank The usual measure of this kind provides for additional issues upon state and municipal bonds acceptable to the Secretary of the Treasury and in some cases upon railroad bonds which comply with the provisions of the New York and Massachusetts laws for savings bank in- vestments. It is declared by critics of this plan that a single blunder by the smallest bank in the country which hap pened to escape the scrutiny of the Sec retary of the Treasury would cast dis credit upon the entire system. 1t would then become necessary to examine every bank note received in order to make sure that 1t did not come from a bank which had failed with defective security for it's notes This difficulty would be obviated by the creation of a guaranty fund, as under the plans of the chamber of com merce and the bankers association, but supporters of the latter plans declare that it would be a superlative provision to adopt both forms of security and that the guaranty fund affords the most com plete protection against scattered losses One of the questions which is likely to receive discussion Is whether cash re- serve shall be required against the pro- posed notes. A reserve of the same amount as that required against deposits is provided by the bankers plan. in or der to keep the issues of notes linked to the gold and prevent indefinite exnansion and excessive gold exports.

ADMINISTRATION IS RASH
Congressman Declares That President Has Done an UnWise Thing in Issuing Bonds and Certifi
 eates To Aid Banks.

New York; November 2i-Representa- tive Charles N. Fowler, chairman of the house committee on banking and cur reney, gives out the following statement regarding the issue of Panama canal bonds and treasury certificates;
 Personally, said MT. Fowler, and from party standpoint il is, of course. unpleasant for me to disapprove the ac- ton of the republican administration but my study of the questions involved and my duty to the public compel me 10 set forth the reason why the action of the administration is surprising extraordi nary. unwarranted, and most unfortu- nate.
 "On Friday, November b. the crisis of the present currency panic had been reached and successfully passed through the splendid achievement of American bankers in bringing gold to this country to the extent of about s7500o.OOO at Il very great cost to themselves, for it was pur- chased generally at a premium of about 2 per cent and also by responding to the business necessities of the various locali- ties in issuing clearing house certificates and cashiers checks in denominations of s.

Roosevelt lntervenes.

Al this juncture. when the financial and currency situation was already well in hand, the administration interVened against the opinion of the best judges of the situation Therefore, primarily the effect of the governments action must be most disturbing factor, although the bankers of the country may prevent any securities at the moment.
 At the second place, the government did not need the money, as 1t has $2i0. 00O.000 to it's credit which it has taken from the people through taxation. There fore the interest bearing debt of the gov ernment should not have been increased $l50000,000, especially when such oondi- ton is in clear violation of the intent aud purpose of the law and. in the third place, because the action of the treasury is most violent violation of economic law for which the people must yet pay the penalty.

Bond Issue Discussed.

First, let us deal with the so 000. coo of per cent premium bonds which are to pc used as the basis of additional bank note circulation. The government has as stated, $240.000 GOO in it's treasury or to it's credit. and. therefore, 1t did not need tho proceeds to pay for the construction of the Panama canal or to meet the current expenditures of the government. Ana even if it did, it could not take any part of the proceeds of these sales for the present. as the banks could not afford to exchange their reserve money for bank notes.
 And further, instead of there being a margin of gain there must necessarily action. Again by this hypodermic in- lection of another sJ0000,000 of fixed cur- rency into our mass of bond-secured bank note circulation which never re- spends to the varying conditions of com merce because not directly related to the business of the country, we have made u bad condition worse. Think of pushing farther a principle of currency expansion which, although our business was con stantly expanding, from 1882 to 1891. fell from s362 Op0oO0 in 1882 to sl25, ,000, 900 In 1891. Why? Simply because it was un- profitable to hold the bonds for that purpose: any principle which has proved it's utter lack of adaptation to our needs since 1891. by showing an actual contrac- ton during the fall of many Of the in- teryening years, and an actual expansion during the spring months Of many oth-

Can Experience Teach.

Can the American people observe and learn anything from experience in finance and currency they always do in other matters, especially such violent ex- perences as we have been passing through during the last 90 days?
 Again we shall find when the reac- tlon comes and the changed condition is rehected in our reserves beginning about the l5th of January, if not earlier. and increasing rapidly during the spring months until the reserves In our banks will probably exceed those of any pre- cedne year since 19OO-that his very Si50 GOO if unfortunately the increased debt shall be converted into bank notes, that these bank notes will not disappear and be automatically retired but that they will find a place in the reserves of the state banks. in the reserves of the trust companies and to some extent though they have no right therein the reserves Of the national banks.
 Gold Is Displaced.
 Now mark this. that every bank note held as a reserve will dlsplace just that amount of gold and drive it out Of the country This Is just what our silver purchases did ln 1879 10 1891. The poorer money always has and invariably will drive out the better.
 But. you may inquire. will the profit of one-half to one per cent be sufficient to work this great injury to our finances [? Let history answer. From 1T92 to 1g33 with only a differential between gold and silver of from a half to one per cont the gold was driven out of the country During the next few months you will note this striking contrast between those bond-secured notes and the credit cur- rency expressed in clearing house cer- tifcates and cashiers checks. that while all of these bond-secured notes will re- main to perplex and curse us in the fu- ture by not contracting to the extent of q single dollar from January to July every single dollar of credit currency in the form of clearing house certificates and cashiers checks which have come into excess naturally will get over their urgent need and will disappear when they are required no longer
