Barring provision for the maiuten-
ance of the union and for protection
against foreign INVASION" he continued,
II do not believe that congress has APP
proached a more important subject since
the government was organized"
On certain main propositions he
thought there should be little II any diff
ference OF opinion. These were:
First. our present volume OF money IS
adequate for the ordinary demand OF
business and. therefore, We do not need
and should not have expansion.
Second. the additional or supplement
tai emergency circulation should be. IL
possible. identical with some form OF
money in ordinary and constant use lest
its presence cause alarm and thus de-
feat the purpose for which IL is author
ized.
Third. the relief should be capable OF
immediate and local application.
Fourth. its prompt retirement. as
soon as the demand therefor ceases
should be insured
Mr. Shaw laid down the proposition
that no bond. secured circulation can be
elastic. let no one deceive himself
into the belief" he said. that the right

S|GNOR NOvELL|
IN THE ROLE
Of MACBETH

Last evening at the Opera House Signor
Novelli played Macbeth before a rather
small audience. His Interpretation Will
good was not so well executed as his
'Othello" The performance. however.
was distinguished by one eNcellSrt scene.
namely. that in which the ghost OF Ban
quo appears at the banquet In this
scenc Signor Noveli was very effective
and conveyed realistically the impression
Of CHASTITY fear.
Signora Giovanni was good as Lady
Macbeth, her best work being done in
the sleep-walkng scene.
For the rest the performance was dis
tinguished by no especially brilliant or
even good work by the other members OF
the company.
IL is evident that tho company is not as
familiar as IL might be with the Shakes
pearian plays In it's repertoire. the
prompter being much in evidence at last
evenings performance Not only could
he be heard. but at many times seen. The
custom OF the players I'm breaking off IN
The middle of the scene TO respond To ap'
plause also served TO destroy the effect
OF tho performance.
IL would be interesting TO know wher,
Signor Novelli acquired his ideas O
Scotch costumes at the time OF Macbeth
Certain II Is that no English compan,
was ever costumed so i'm the play. Th,
principal object I'm the selection OF COS
tunes appeared to- be To get as mani
colors as possible in a single garment.

VALUABLE DATA
ABOUT NEWPORT

A manuscript volume, containing the
the years 1855 to 17sS. has been offered for
sale to the Rhode Island Historical So
ciety. The volume is considered valuable
in that it gives some important and in
teresting data in regard 10 the commercial
condition OF Newport shortly after the
Revolution c. S. Bridgam, librarian of the
society yesterday made the following
statement in regard TO the book.
The Information given In regard To
each vessel Is unusually full In addition
To the name OF the vessel. its master and
its owner the list gives the tonnage. the
number OF men and guns. the date when
built. the place where constructed, a de-
scription OF the cargo and the destination
OF the vessel The entries show that the
commerce of Newport. instead OF being
annihlated by the Revolution, as many
writer's have asserted was I'm most
flourishing condition during the period
covered by the documents
1T is a rather striking fact that i'm the
entire long list of vessels appearing in
! this volume there are but seven which
are recorded as having been built before
/ the Revolution. The war swept large
part OF American commerce from the seas
and IL was not until after the treaty OF
peace in 1888 that the shipyards were re-
vlved.

suit OF the personal transactions OF

that the complications are many and

Ter of the currency for the appoint

thing TO his statement In the way of eN-
panation and the other directors also
refused 10 talk regarding the situation,
II was learned. however. that the ope-
rations OF the cashier We're conduct ID
through several other banks and that the
work of unravelling the t6ngle was there

ed from Cashier Sergeant a statement In

death of Cashier Sergeant was given out
last night by the family physician, DR..
Willis l.. Hale:
"As a statement has appeared I'm some
