GERMANS DON'T LIKE
CHECKS IN PAYMENT
And Efforts Are Now Being Made to
Overcome the Prejudice
Special Cable to The Herald.

Special Cable to The Herald
BERLIN, July 27.-It is the intention
of the imperial government to bring for
ward bank check law at the next ses-
sion of the reichstag that will for the
first time introduce the bank check sys-
tenn into general use in Germany.
Although the fatherland's banks just
ly rank among the greatest in the
world, they have never been able to
induce their customers to make use of
checking accounts to the widespread
extent that the system is In vogue in
America and Great Britain. The aver
age German has about the same respect
for a check as for a counterfeit bank
note, and many business houses, trades
men and landlords absolutely refuse
to accept checks.
The tightness which has prevailed in
the German money market for the past
eight or nine months is believed finally
to have induced the government to
father laws calculated to facilitate the
issuing and acceptance of checks on
private bank accounts.
This week the great Berlin banks is
sued little books of instructions to de-
positors urging them to look into the
aspects of the checking sys-
whom they are in the habit of doing
business to get over their medieval
prejudice against checks.
If the system attains general popu-
larity, 1t will knock a gaping hole in
the receipts of the money order depart
ment of the kaiser's government, through
which the bulk of payments between the
masses and their debtors, even when both
live in the same city, are now made.

PARIS. July 27.-Two laws relating to
the feminist movement were promulgated
Tuesday. One authorizes divorced women
to contract new marriage within few
months after divorce is pronounced.
The other, which was before parliament
thirteen years, grants married women the
right to dispose of their earnings, over
which hitherto their husbands possessed
complete control. Wives can now acquire
property Independently with their wages,
but must contribute their share toward
the household expenses. If, however, a
woman squanders her money her hus-
band can obtain an order from the courts
withdrawing her right to expend her
earnings.
woman's separate property may be
seized by creditors for debt contracted
by the husband for the household, but
not for his personal debts

PENNY FAMINE IN ENGLAND
WORRIES THE TREASURY
Million and Quarter Dollars Worth
Locked in Slot Machines
Special Gable to The Herald.

Special Cable to The Herald.
LONDON, July 27.-The American
penny slot machine is accountable for a
situation perplexing the master of the
royal mint. Despite the utmost efforts to
meet the demand, there has been a
chronic shortage of copper coins.
series of inquiries made among the
companies which supply gas, electricity,
matches, chocolate, etc, on the penny
slot system have developed the fact that
over 60,000000 pennies, valued at a million
and quarter dollars, are continuously
locked up in these machines and conse-
quently withdrawn from circulation.
The effect of this may be realized when
1T is remembered that this amount ex-
ceeds the total issue of pennies during
the years 1900, 1903 and 1906
The mintage of gold in England has
been far in excess of that of previous
years, and this is taken as an indica-
ton that times are abnormally good.
The mint bought over 62,50O,OOO worth of
bar gold during the last fiscal year, and
in addition took slS,5OoOOO in specie for
recoinage.

PARIS, July H.-The municipal coun-

Marche and Baroness Hirsch, whose
