DUE TO DESP0EDENCY.
Suicide Of Ex-Pres;dent Wilcox Of the
Delaware and Hudson.

SUlCfoS OF EH-STeSiotElI WILCOX OF IllV
Delaware and Hudson.
New York, April 27.-The body of
David Wilcox, former president of the
Delaware and Hudson company, who
committed suicide on board the steam
er Barbarosa in midocean on Wednes-
day, was landed at Hoboken and given
into the care of his cousiA w. G. Will
COX. It was found that Mr.. Wilcox
shot himself in the mouth, dying in
stantly. Mr.. Wilcox was in a very
nervous condition from i'll health when
he sailed for Europe few weeks ago.
After reaching Europe he cabled to his
cousin that his condition was worse
than when he left America. Since then
his relatives in this city have had no
word from him.
It is reported that while in Europe
Mr.. Wilcox was informed that ne
would eventually become blind. This,
it is said, is one of the causes of the
depression which ended in suicide.

INDIANS NOT PLEASED
Mile LacerS Want Money
Divided Among Those
Remaining There

The Chippewa Indians. who are
still around Mile Laos Lake, refusing
to make their home at White Earth,
are very angry at the way the govern
ment wants to divide the money they
won as the result Of settlement Ct a
suit against Gus. 81. Beau]ieau, which
had been placed to their credit in the
First National Bank of st. Cloud and
amounted to S.. 800. They claim that
as the rest of the tribe are no longer
of the Mile Lac band. and that the
suit was brouhgt by them, they alone
are entitled to the money. They had
been figuring on each receiving $40
but if the money is to be divided
among the Chippewas Of White Earth
and Tamarsc also, they will only re-
ceive 81 each, and this angers them
very much. They have held several
councils over this matter.

The CURRENCY.
Elasticity In Circulating Medium Pres.
ent and Prime Necessity.

In my message TO the congress
year ago spoke as follows of the cur
rency:
Il especially call your attention TO
the condition of our currency laws.
The national bank act has ably served
great purpose In aiding the. cnOr-
nous business development of the
country, and within ten years there
has been an increase In circulation per
capita from S2l.4l to $33.OS. For sew
eral years evidence has been accumu-
latlng that additional legislation is
needed. The recurrence of each crop
season emphasizes the defects of the
present laws. There must soon be II
revision OF them. because to leave them
us they are EIeInS 10 Incur liability
of business disaster. Since your body
adjourned there has been Il iluctuation
In the interest on call money from .
per cent TO so per cent. and the duo
tuation was even greater during the
preceding six months. The secretary
of the treasury had to step In and by
wise action put u stop TO the most VIC
lent period of oscillation. Even worse
than such fluctuations are the advance
In commercial rates and the uncertainty
felt in the sutiiciency of credit even ut
high rates. All commercial interests
suffer during each crop period Ex-
cessive rates for call money In New
York attract money from the interior
banks into the speculative field. This
depletes the fund that would other

and commercial borrowers are forced
to pay abnormal rates, so that each
fall tax in the shape of increased In
terest charges is placed on the whole
commerce Of the country.
1.-THE mere statement Of these facts
shows that our present system Is serl-
ously defective. There is need Of n
change. Unfortunately, however, many
Of the proposed changes must be ruled
from consideration because they are
complicated, are not easy of compre-
tension and tend to disturb existing
rights and interests. We must also

The antitrust law should not be re

more efficient and more in harmony

SO amended as to forbid only the kind
of combination which does harm to the
general public, such amendment TO be
accompanied by or to be an incident Of

government over these big concerns

should be accompanied by provision
for the compulsory publication Of &c.

ready been made for such supervision
by the establishment of the bureau of
corporations.

The TARIFF.

This country Is definitely committed

fort to uproot II could not but cause

that the Institutions which failed were
institutions which were not under the
supervision and control of the national
government. Those which were under
national control stood the test.
National control of the kind above
advocated would be to the benefit Of
every well managed railway. From
the standpoint of the public there Is
need for additional tracks, additional
terminals and improvements in the
nctual handling of the railroads, and
all this as rapidly as possible. Ample,
safe and speedy transportation facili-
ties are even more necessary than
cheap transportation. Therefore there
is need for the investment Of money
which Will provide for all these things

them down without the fullest and
most careful consideration of all inter-
ests concerned and of the actual needs
of the situation. Only special body
of men acting for the national govern
ment under authority conferred upon
Il by the congress Is competent to pass
Judgment on such matter.
Those who fear from any reason the
extension of federal activity viii do
well to study the history not only Of
the national banking act, but Of the
pure food law, and notably the meat
inspection law recently enacted. The
pure food law was opposed so violent
ly that its passage was delayed for n
decade, yet II has worked unmixed
and immediate good. The meat in
spection law was even more violently
assailed, and the same men who now
denounce the attitude of the national
government In seeking TO oversee and
control the workings of Interstate COM
mon carriers and business concerns
then asserted that we were "discredit.

carriers and business concerns from
the legislation advocate would be
equally marked.
incidentally In the passage OF the
pure food law the action Of the vari
