MR. TAFT'S RETURN TRIP.
administration Not Worried about
Pisits to European Capitals.
TFcon The Trinune Rureau.1

Washington. Oct. 31.-No anxiety is felt by
the administration regarding any diplomatic
phase of Secretary Taft's approaching visits to
st. Petersburg and Berlin, nor is the idea enter
talned for moment that the Secretary's In
ability to visit Paris and London may result
In complications. Attention is called to the fact
that Mr. Taft is not the Secretary OF State, and
that moreover. he is not making tour of Eu-
rope for pleasure. Were Secretary Root to make
trip through Europe and visit several courts
and omit others some feeling might arise In
those at which he neglected to CALL but in the
case of the Secretary of War the situation Is
different.
Secretary Taft is returning from the Philip
pines, where he went on official business hv
way of Asia and Europe. because he can by so
doing save valuable time compared with the
trip across the Pacific and the United States
as was announced when he left Washington
1t was then calculated that he would save ten
days by adopting the route he chose. St
Petersburg and Berlin are on the direct line of
travel from VIadivostok to Cherbourg and
while it is natural that the Secretary should
receive some attention from the sovereigns
through whose capitals he will pass there is
no special significance to be attached to this
portion of his trip to any audience he may
attend. There are many questions of the ut
most Importance awaiting the Secretary's at
tention here and it is regarded as his logical
course to hasten his return as much as prac-
ticeble. II is not known definitely whether or
not his earlier return will interfere with his
meeting the German Emperor, but IT is regard
ed probable that he will reach Berlin before
the Emperor departs for England. and should
ne do so a meeting will undoubtedly take place

URGING ASSET CURRENCY.

IBy Telegraph 10 rhe TrIhuns.


Cleveland, Oct. 31.-A movement for the
adoption by Congress of the asset currency plan
OF the American Bankers Association was de-
clared by Ex-Governor Myron T. Herrick to-
night TO be sweeping through the country. Mr.
Herrick Is the chairman of the board of direct
ors of the Society for Savings. Cleveland's noted
financial institution, and is also member of the
committee which drafted the asset currency
plan. also known as the elastic currency plan,
and he has been placed in charge of the move
ment for its adoption by national legislation.
Mr.. Herrick declared to-day that the recent
upheaval in Wall Street gave the bankers the
chance to impress the need of a currency scheme
which would give additional currency in times
of stress and that they intended TO make all the
use possible of the lever provided. He added
that in letters written to him in the last two or
three days many bankers had suggested that a
demand for a special session of Congress would
be wise
Don't understand said Ex-Governor Herrick,
that movement for such immediate action Is
on foot. 1 do not know that the idea Of a spe-
cial session will get beyond the stage of sug-
gestion. but a great movement is under way to
force currency bill from Congress in the next
regular session because of the lesson taught by
the recent money famine and consequent ND
