for Ute Indians of Cheyenne

Washington.-As a result of the
conference at the White House be
tween the president. Secretary Gar
field OF the interior, Assistant Secre'
tary Oliver of the war department and
Commissioner of Indian Agencies
Leupp regarding the renegade Ute In
dams on the Cheyenne River reserva'
ton in North Dakota, a decision was
reached to continue the policy of fur
nlshing the Indians with work, and, in
case of their failure to take advantage
OF the opportunity, to leave them to
their own resources.
Troops will be kept there for police
protection. The government says
Utes may have work if they desire It,
but that if they make no effort in their
own behalf the government will not
assist them. The Indians have been
paid the annual allowance of SIS per
capita from their own fund and it is
understood that this is practically ex-
hausted. These Indians are the same
band who have been making trouble
for the whites for the past forty or
fifty years.

The decision OF the merchants to

PROPOSES CREDIT
FOR THE BANKS
Congressman Fowler of New Jersey
Would Increase the Powers of
National Institutions.
Makes Declaration That Permanent
Relief From the Present Monetary
stringency Can Only Be Had
Through a System Of
Credit Currency.

New York.--That permanent relief
from the presen monetary stringency
can only be had through system OF
credit currency adequate to meet the
requirements OF trade and redeemable
In gold coin, is the opinion expressed
by Representatiye Charles Fowler oil
New Jersey, chairman OF the banking
and currency committee, which VIII,
at the coming session OF congress. en-
deayor TO have law passed providing
for credit currency issued by the ma
tional banks. Intll such permanent
enactment, Mr.. Fowler asserted, the
situation must be met by the Issuance
of clearing house certificates, cash
iers' checks and due bills of business
houses and manufacturers.
THE underlying business comb
tions." he declare are essentially
sound, as evidenced by the increased
earnings of railroads and the fact that
the value of our agricultural products
are 50O,000.000 more than last year
(Which was the highest year In our
history. and are bringing to our peO-
pie about $1,000, 1000, 900, but pubic
confidence has been greatly shaken
and credit seriously affected There
fore, every patriotic citizen from the
president down should do all in his
power to restore that confidence which
Is essential to national prosperity.
The cause of the currency strln-
gency Is that there is scattered broad
cast throughout the country, at the
mints, In the wheat corn and cotton
fields, In the pockets of the people, or
locked up. about 81 300. 900 900 of the
reserve money OF the United States,
most OF which. under proper condi-
ton, would be In the banks, serving as
reserve Temporary relief will be
through the forced use of current
credit In the form OF clearing house
certificates cashiers checks and due
bills OF business houses and manufac.
turers during the ninety days. The
permanent cure must come through
system of credit currency expanding
and contracting with the ordinary de
mands of the smaller trade, precisely
as checks and drafts do in the broader
Held of commerce."

EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS

From, the Conservative Leaders IN

Washington.-It IL learned from hn'
doubted sources that President hooSe'
welt is now being urged to call an eA'
ira session Of congress TO deal WIN
the financial situation. The request
comes from and represents the Juus'
ment of the conservative leaders I'D
the financial world, who have repre-
scented the present situation as one
compelling action OF character tha'
will eradicate all grounds Tor sus
picion of American industrial melh
DDS
The president has been assured
from most reliable sources That there
will be no opposition on the part OF
the great industries of the country &c
the enactment of the necessary laws
to carry out his ideas of Federal con
troll to the extent to which he has ex
pounded them in the recent public ut

at this time 10 avert what has Deen
represented as the most dangerous
situation which has confronted the
country during an extended historic
period-that is, the seeming growing
lack of confidence based on known II
regularities in business methods IL
some quarters and no sure and speedy
means of separating the good from the
unsound.
To this end it is suggested that the
president get congress to the task
first, of making amendments to the
financial laws as viii result sin the

TROUBLES OF SHIPPERS.
Can't Get Cars Enough to Move Their
Grain.

New York.-Following the recent
protest of the western grain shippers
that it p impossible for them to get
the trunk line shippers to move con-
signments of grain from Buffalo to
New York and that in refusing to en-
ter into contract for these export
shipments the results were greatly
hindering the grain export trade, it is
learned that the New York Central,
the Lacakawana and the Erie have
temporarily discontinued the making
of contracts on grain shipments.
The cutting off of contracts on flu
ture shipments was due to the purely
physical condition of car shortage. 1t
is believed that the roads will all be
able alike to relieve the congestion in
a few days and resume the acceptance
of contracts.
