Washington. Dec. 1S.-Members or
congress are beginning to wonder II
even currency reform legislation will
be attempted at the present session,
The leaders have made 1t unmistak-

Some temporary method OF meeting

question of currency reform to go
over until after the presidential cleo

such a policy Is much the same as
that used to Justify -postponement OF

currency legislation this winter could
not be divorced from partisan poll

that the problem should be taken up

are seeing things at night. All up
and down that t~horoughfare which
Gothamites love to call the Great
White Way" the "Riaito." or Dear
old Broadway" there lies chill the
dread of an awful fate impending.
Were the judgment day at hand
Broadway would laugh and quaff its
wine and jest at eternity, but the
thing that has set New York to quak-
ing is much more terrible than the
blast of Gabriel's horn. There is talk
of making the Metropolis dry"
One-half of the territory OF the
United States proper has prohibition;
one-third of the people live under
laws which forbid the sale of intoxi-
eating liquor. Now ii is announced
hat the full prohibition strength the
country over is to be concentrated in
an effort to dry up New York. Is 1t
any wonder New Workers are in a
panic? Is IL any wonder that at each
feast in the lobster belt there is a
skeleton? The popping of a cham
payne corks falls on nervous ears
like the crack Of doom, and laughter
Is a mockery. The men mt women

who have consecrated themselves to
high living and low thinking, are
plunged into dark. dank despair. The
sun-if by chance they see the sun
has not its wonted brightness. and
ever the lights they love so well do
not glow as they did before the threat
of this dire calamity came to hang
over the city like a pail.
They make a brave show Of bcliev-
ing that New York-"Little old New
York"-could never be submerged by
the temperance wave that is sweeping
the country, but they fear it just the
same. The action of Police Commits
sioner Bingham in putting the ban on
concerts and all other forms of pub
lie entertainment on Sunday has set
them thinking. If this be possible.
they are forced to ask themselves,
why not prohibition?

liquor dealers, of course. are happy,
and those who dread the possibility OF
prohibition laws join in their JOY.
They figure that New York will tire
of compelled good behavior and that
support of a prohibition movement
will thereby be weakened.
There is going to be the biggest
kind OF a fight over the program 10
instruct New York's delegates to the
next democratic national convention
for william ]. Bryan. The Nebras-
kan's New York managers plan to
have Bryan endorsed at a state con-
vention of the Democratic Progressive
league in Cooper Union about the
middle OF January. h program
would be carried out In detail, they
said. i'm spite of the abandonment by
william J. Corners, chairman of the
democratic state committee; Charles
f.. Murphy. and other prominent
anti BRYAN democrats of the plan to
give a Jackson dinner at the Waldorf
Astoria on January s, to sound a note
for the nomination of a New Yorker.
They emphatically denied rumors
that this change in the plans OF the
opposition had In any way affected
their original intention.
They declared the convention will
soon be called, and hat representa-
ton will be apportioned to every
county in the state. The delibera-
tions, they believe. will effectually
deaden whatever may remain by thai
time of the movement for the pre-
sentation to the democratic national
convention by the state delegation OF
a New York ~"favorite SON" They feel
confident that the delegation will be
instructed for Mr.. Bryan.
Within a fortnight after his EN-
dorsement by the state convention OF
the Progressive Democratic league. II
Is Mr.. Bryan's intention to return
here for a tour of those counties of
the state which he did not visit on his
swing around the circle I'm October.
In order TO do this he has foregone
the projected trip TO the Mediterran-
can to join Mrs. Bryan and his
daughter, Mrs. Leavitt. who left New
York yesterday for Naples.
An u~ninstructed delegation from
New York is the program of Charles
+. Murphy. leader Of Tammany Hall,
who expects to control the state con-
vention next spring which will name
the national delegates. Though Muir
ply is not doing any talking, II can
be authorltatively announced that
this is his plan. and that he will OPP
pose all efforts to commit the New
York state delegation to Bryan.

IS different today. There is a popu-
lar s~upposition hat New Workers
know little of what is going on in the
country west of the Hudson, but this
prohibition wave is something that
could not escape them. Its possibili-
ties were too terrible. They have
heard of its successes at the south. es-
pecially In Kentucky and Tennessee,
two states where they had supposed
everybody was engaged either in the
making or the drinking of whiskey,
and ii has come home to them that
even New York may not be invulner-
able.
1t is not probable, however. that
the men and women habitues of Up
per Broadway. will come in for seri-
Gus consideration when judgment fin
ally Is passed on the question of pro-
hibition for the Greater City. The
great bulk of New York's population
is made up of sober, industrious,
home-loving people, just as sober, in
dustrious, home-loving people make
up the bulk of the population Of any
other American city. %Sobriety, though,
does not necessarily mean total alb
stinence. and of abstinence there
probably is less in New York than
elsewhere in the United States, with

This is accounted for In part by the
great percentage of foreign-born resi-
dents and in part by the strenuosity
of life in the metropolis. 1t seems
that New York naturally breeds a
craving for Intoxicating liquor. Men
who rarely IL eve drank in their in
terror home cities, come here and fall
quickly into the prevailing habit.
Women, too, drink here with greater
freedom than elsewhere, and, where
as in an interior city it would occa-
sion comment and even scandal, in
New York it Is accepted as a matter

so they partake. If circumstances
permit, wine is served at the table:
more frequently beer is kept in the
Ice box and offered neighbors when
they drop in Of an evening.
1t is not to be assumed. however,
that these women, and their hus-
bands. would of necessity be found
lined up in opposition to prohibition.
They are members of the church and

.ty, especially the welfare of their

conceivable that should a great pro-
crusade be inaugurated they
