VOYAGE OF foreign VESSEL
down 5000 NILES
Of AN AMERICAN RIVER.
Press to Bismarck Tribune

Associated Press to Bismarck Tribune {$ 4
Washing ton, July 2. Streaming
across the blue waters of the Gulf Of
Mexico is the three-decked, side-wheel-
er Mexican vessel, the Clara Ramos.
There would be nothing extraordinary
in this were the Clara Ramos not the
first steam vessel flying foreign flag
that ever made a voyage down nearly
1000 miles of an American river. She
is on her way to the inland waterways
Of the Mexican republic. For the first
time in history, however, inhabitants
of the Ohio and Mississippi valleys
were greeted by the huttering folds
/ OF a foreign. flag, and it is believed
in Washington that the voyage will
mark a new era in commercial rels-
tionss with the rich countries to the
south of the United States. @#3@
The Mexican vessel was built in
|, Pittsbnfg and is intended for traffic
on Mexican rivers, She dropped down
the, Ohio liver a few days ago, in bal
last. and fher arrival was heralded in
advance at every port along that
stFeasti. Such dipping of flags and
yS|thsr naval salutes never was seen
before ION the big waterway. Pussy
Rstle tugs, hauling acres of i coal
barges, nearly split their throats with
shrill screams Of welcome to the flag
] Of, Mexico, and the more stately
steamers recognized 1t as warmly,
bur in a more dignifed manner, as
became their station. n 81
The appearance of the Clara Ramos
was hailed at Cincinnati, where the
vessel stopped for day on its run
down stream. The headquarters CT
the National Rivers and Harbors Con.
gress is situated in that city, and
its secretary, Captain ]. F. Ellison
was among the first to extend his vel
( come. His organization has worked
for more than a half decade in an
effort to arouse the people of the
United States to the necessity for i'm
pressing on Congress that $50,000,0 0t
"a year is needed to improve adequate,
" the streams of the country. The
B appearance of a foreign vessel served
to prove one of the. contentious Of
the organization namely, that if the
rivers and harbors are properly devel
oped a vast and increasing trade, both
foreign and domestic, is certain tx

At the term of court just 6n shed here 32 civil cas0s were continued, referred and dismissed, while 12 were tried. This leaves the docket in pra tically the same condition as it was before, there being 15 cases pot touched, two criminal cases continued, two dismissed be- cause the witnesses had scattered so no case could be made against the accused. Isn't this strong argument in favor of a division oi he district? No judge can come here once every year or every two years and expect to clear up the docket in two weeks.

WASHINGTON LETTER.


(from our Regular CORES pondent.)
Washington, D. c., Nov. 2.-Sec
rotary Cortelyou's plan for relieving
the financial stringencv and putting
more money into circulation seems to
be meeting with success, the support
and cooperation of the banks. This
plan was announced only in the middle
OF the week. The government has made
all the deposits of cash in the national
banks that it Is felt safe for the Treas.
urY to make at this time. and as there
is more money needed to carry on the
business of the country, the Secretary
of the Treasury urged that the nation
al banks should issue additional note
circulation up to the limit allowed them
by the present law. Hardly any of the
banks have awaited themselves of this
privilege to the full extent and some
not at all. The note issue has to be
based on government bonds deposited
with the Treasury Department. Many
of the banks have bonds of this char.
acter deposited as security for deposits
OF government funds, but for such de-
posits the Treasury will take approved
railroad and municipal bonds, so that
by shifting the government bonds over
as security for note circulation. the
banks could all issue more money and
help the cash situation considerably.
There is now In the Treasury about
$167 ZOO, 900 worth of bank notes that
could be thus issued. The total amount
of money that could be put into cir
culation by this means would he near
er $500, 100000
In the first 4S hours after the sugges
tion was made to the banks there were
responses of favorable tenor. pledg-
ing note issues all the way from So, 900
up to So 100000 1t is said that one
bank in New York alone could issue if
it wished $10,0OO,OOO of note circula
ton. With this additional money out.
the cash tension would be relieved and
there would be much more money
available for crop movement and this
In turn would bring more money from
abroad, increa sing our foreign trade
balance and easing foreign exchange.
The Treasury department is decided
ly pleased with the foreign gold OUT
look as it is. There has been a total
of 1923, 900, 900 in gold engaged abroad
and the trade balance with Europe
will increase. when the wheat and cot |
ton crops move abroad. Gov. Franz of |
Oklahoma had talk with the Secret
AIRY Of the Treasury while he was here
