Government viii Not Furnish Food
for Ute indians of Cheyenne
River AGENCY,

Washington.-As a result of the
conference at the White House be-
tween the president Secretary Gar
field of the interior, Assistant Secre
tary Oliver of the war department and
Commissioner of Indian Agencies
Leupp regarding the renegade Ute In
dians on the Cheyenne River reserva-
ton in North Dakota, a decision was
reached to continue the policy of fur
nishing the Indians with work, and, in
case of their failure to take advantage
OF the opportunity, to leave them to
their own resources.
Troops will be kept there for police
protection. The government says
Utes may have work If they desire it.,
but that II they make no effort in their
own behalf the government will not
assist them. The Indians have been
paid the annual allowance of SIS per
capita from their own fund and 1t is
understood that this is practically ex-
hausted. These Indians are the same
band who have been making trouble
for the whites for the past forty or
fifty years.

PROPOSES CREDIT
FOR THE BANKS
Congressman Fowler of New Jersey
Would Increase the Powers of
National institutions.
Makes Declaration That Permanen nj
Relief From the Present Monetary
stringency Can Only Be Had
Through a System Of
Credit Currency.

New York.--That permanent relief
from the present monetary stringency
can only be had through a system 20;
credit currency adequate to meet the
requirements of trade and redeemable
In gold coin, Is the opinion expressed
by Representative Charles Fowler OF
New Jersey, chairman of the banking
and currency committee, which Will,
at the coming session of congress, en-
deavor to have law passed providing
for credit currency issued by the ma
tional banks. Until such permanent
relief is made possible by legislative
enactment, Mr.. Fowler asserted, the
situation must be met by the issuance
of clearing house certificates, cash
iers' checks and due bills of business
houses and manufacturers.
The underlying business condi-
tions,' he declares, "are essentially
sound as evidenced by the Increased
earnings of railroads and the fact that
the value OF our agricultural products
are $500,000,OOO more than last year
(Which was the highest year in our
history, and are bringing to our peo
pie about $7000,O0O,000, but public
confidence has been greatly shaken
and credit seriously affected. There.
fore, every patriotic citizen from the
president down should do all in his
power to restore that confidence which
Is essential to national prosperity.
The cause of the currency strin-
gency is that there Is scattered broad
cast throughout the country, at the
mints, in the wheat, corn and cotton
fields. in the pockets of the people, or
locked up. about $780, 000, ,0G0 of the
reserve money OF the United States,
most of which. under proper condi-
ton, would be In the banks, serving as
reserve. Temporary relief will be
through the forced use OF current
credit in the form of clearing house
certificates, cashiers checks and due
bills of business houses and manufac-
turers during the ninety days. The
permanent cure must come through a
system of credit currency expanding
and contracting with the ordinary de-
mands of the smaller trade, precisely
as checks and drafts do in the broader
field of commerce."

EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS
URGED BY FINANCIAL LEADERS
Request for Extra Session comes
From the Conservative Leaders IN
the Financial World.

Washington.-lt Is learned from un-
doubted sources that President Roose-
welt is now being urged to call an ex'
tra session of congress to deal win
the financial situation. The request
comes from and represents the Judg-
ment of the conservative leaders IN
the financial world, who have repre-
sented the present situation as one
compelling action of character that
will eradicate all grounds for sus-
picion of American industrial meth
DDS
The president has been assured
from most reliable sources that there
viii be no opposition on the part OF
the great industries of the country TO
the enactment of the necessary laws
TO carry out his ideas of Federal con-
troll to the extent to which he has ex-
pounded them in the recent pubic Ut
terances. These assurances are maue
at this time to avert what has been
represented as the most dangerous
situation which has confronted the
country during an extended historic
period-that is, the seeming growing
lack of confidence based on known lr-
regularities in business methods In
some quarters and no sure and speedy
means of separating the good from the
unsound.
To this end it is suggested that the
president get congress to the task,
first, of making amendments to the
financial laws as will result in the
maximum of fexibility with the mini
mum of basic change in our system.
Next. and perhaps most in importance,
that the president embody his sugges-
tlons on corporation control into sue
cinct recommendations for enactment
into law.

LIKE COLONIAL TIMES.
Everything Closed in Kansas City
Except the Theatres.

Kansas City-Never before in the his
tory of this city was Sunday so strict
ly observed by the business interests
as 1t was on November 3. All the
merchants who have heretofore defied
the attempts of Criminal Judge Will
liam II. Wallace to enforce the state
law forbidding unnecessary labor on
Sunday. obeyed the Sunday closing
order. The theatres. however, were
open as usual, as they are protected
by injunction proceedings pending in
the federal court.
The decision of the merchants to
obey the law was brought about by
the wholesale arrests during the pre-
vious twenty-four hours of those per-
sons who were indicted by the grand
jury for refusing to comply with the
law during the two previous Sundays.
The persons arrested were placed un-
der bonds ranging from 5000 to $1,000
each

MONEY IS NOW FLOWING
BACK into THE BANKS
Runs on Treasure Vaults Have Practi-
ealIy Ceased and Only Troublesome
Feature is Tendency Toward
Blockade of Domestic
Exchange.

New York.--Runs on the banks and
trust companies are practically over;
money. which was temporarily with.
drawn from banks subject to runs, is
flowing to the stronger banks and cur
rency is being provided in most cases
where the demand for it is considered
legitimate. Further engagements Of
gold by Boston and other pointsohave
brought up the total engagements
$26,550,000.
Balances with the clearing house
have settled down to q normal condi-
tlon, but there is still something of
blockade of domestic exchange
through the unwillingness of New
York banks to pay currency on drafts
from other cities and the unwilling
ness of other cities to pay out their
currency upon drafts from New York.
The condition of affairs indicates a
continued pressure for currency rather
than a breakdown of credits. but rea-
sonable demands are being met for
regular customers of the banks. The
possibility of Fastening the export
movement of wheat and cotton still
engages the attention of foreign ex-
change dealers, and also of those who
endeavor to keep in touch with the
general situation.
Doubt is expressed whether the sec
retary of the treasury viii be able to
carry out on any considerable scale
the project of the New Orleans export
ers for accepting cash at government
fiscal agencies abroad and transfer
ring 1t by telegraph to points in this
country, but Secretary Cortelyou is
said to be willing to make such depus-
its of public money at cotton export
ing points as will to considerable ex'
tent relieve the strain.

TROUBLES OF SHIPPERS.
Can't Get Cars Enough to Move Their
Grain.

New York.--Following the recent
protest Of the western grain shippers
that it is impossible for them to get
the trunk line shippers to move con-
signments of grain from Buffalo to
New York and that in refusing to en-
ter into contract for these export
shipments the results were greatly
hindering the grain export trade, it is
learned that the New York Central.
the Lacakawana and the Erie have
temporarily discontinued the making
OF contracts on grain shipments.
The cutting off of contracts on fu-
ture shipments was due to the purely
physical condition of car shortage. 1t
is believed that the roads will all be
able alike to relieve the congestion in
few days and resume the acceptance
of contracts.

BRYAN is OPTIMISTIC.
Nebraskan Does Not Look for Pro
onged Trouble in Business World.

Omaha.-William ]. Bryan. in
Omaha, on Friday, gave out the fol-
lowing interview on the business and
financial conditions;
II do not look for any prolonged
trouble in the business world. Condi-
tions which made panic and depres-
sion in 1898 are entirely different
now. Then prices were falling because
of restricted money supply. Now
we are in the midst of tremendous
gold production which gives an abund-
ant money supply and maintains
prices so that business is brisk"
Then you do not think the present
bank trouble shows the need OF an
emergency or asset currency"
Not by any means. On the other
hand, think it is strong argument
against an asset currency. Suppose
for instance, we had been issuing as
set currency during the past year and
in addition to the present trouble the
people had distrust about the money?
That would make matters SO much the
worse. AS 1t is now, there is no
doubt about the quality of our
money"
