of Panama canal bonds and TREASURY

that the action was Surprising. ex.

AT this juncture, when the flnan.

Washington, Nov. 25.-Details Of
msny new projects for improving the
currency are being submitted to The
president and Secretary Cortelyou, and
are receiving such attention as the 9TH
er exigencies of the financial situation
permit. Measures relating directly to
the currency which are being discussed
among bankers and incoming membefi
of congress may be roughly grouped
under four heads-a central bank Of
issue; central organization Of the eG
listing national banks; the issue Of ad.
ditional circulation against various
classes Of bonds other than United
States bonds, and the issue OF circula.
tion upon general assets with the Sc.
curity of guaranty fund.
Project Of a Central Bank.
The project of central bank, based
upon the general outlines of the bank
of France or the Imperial Bank Of
Germany, has apparently been attract.
ing more attention of late than at any
previous time in recent years. 1t is
considered somewhat significant in
some quarters that Ridgely, the comp.
troller of the currency, has Just de.
clared for a central bank of issue, az
ter having in previous reports recon-
mended only geneal credit currency
for the existing banks. The utterances
OF Ridgely are not, however, consid-
cred to commit the administration.
since Treasurer Treat has a plan
which he is advocating whenever he is
invited to deliver a public address on
the subject.

National Bank Combination.

The project of combination among
the national banks through their

in case of emergency, is embodied in
several plans which have been submit.

While these plans are declared by ex-
-perts to have some degree Of merit, it

''.rhe Spoilers" stsked claim at Blaney's
Theatre last night There were two sets
of them, first, the characters in the
dramatization of Rex Beach's novel, who
sought the "spoils of war; in the mining
regions of bleak Alaska. and second a
rough element In the gallery which served
to SPOIL the effects OF the play by an al
most continuous buzzng and irritating
noise. Doubtless many persons, who are
not regular frequenters OF this house,
were attracted there to compare the
dramatic production with the original story
so interestingly woven in Mr.. Beach
book and to them the actions of the
crowd higher up must have been particu-
larly annoying.
The story furnishes substance for good
drama but the play. as produced, fails
quite to come up to expectations. The
well-known characters are there. Roy Glen
mister and Joe Dextry, the owners of the
Midas Mine; Alexander Mcnamara, the
man who backed by the law. defrauds the
miners of their hard-earned spoiis; Helen
Chester. Cherry Malotte. the Broneho Kid
and the rest. But it was impossible to
crowd all the stirring events OF the book
into four acts. However, plays based upon
books seldom do come up to the story. and
those who had not read tbe novel probably
were well satisfied. The production is

snuff in every way, IS most attractive,
John Quinn and Eddie Fitzgerald are
the chief funmakers in this act-but
pause-we do not want to forget LIZ
zie Frelgh, who is there forty ways,
and Norma Bell. Georgia DeGraff and
Minnie Gordon, who take leading parts
in the skit. The Gay Modiste" is an
interesting little affair which closes
the program, as far as the burlesque
is concerned.
And now come the pictures of the
Burns-Moir fight which took place in
the National Sporting Club in London.
The pictures are very vivid and show
that Moir never had a chance with the
willy Burns. So distinct are they that
the blood on Moirs face which is
rubbed off on Burnss arms and body
can be easily, seen, as can spots on the
floor caused by Moir's frequent spit
ting of blood. Five rounds, in which
the most fighting was done, were
thrown upon the screen. They are
rounds one, three, six, eight and ten.
Why the other rounds were not shown
was not made clear. but it was prob
ably because they possessed little
interest
