less other provision is made for meet
ing such administration expenditures
than to require them to be betrayed
out Of the current revenues Of the

From an examination Of statement
prepared by the committee on an.
propriations 1t appears that the prin-
cipal increase in the expenditures for
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1909,
is for the military establishment, in
cluding the army. the navy, and pen
sions. This increase over the cur
rent appropriations for the military
establishment amounts to almost
$1O0, 100000, as 1t does not include any
estimate whatever for new authorize
tions, such, for instance, as the
building Of battleships. Important in.
creases of estimate, over the current
are:
For the army, $11,121,251; for the
navy, $26,S32,S42; for Notifications,

Washington, Dec. 1S.--Chairmal
Tawney, Of the house committee OF
appropriations, which was appointed
Monday by Speaker Cannon, effected
It's organization Tuesday.
At the close Of the committee's 4
meeting Chairman Tawney dictated
the following statement:
THE committee on appropriations
and congress are confronted with q
situation which will require a very
material revision Of the estimates sub.
mitted for public expenditures for the
next fiscal year ending June 80, 1909,
in order to keep the appropriations
within the possible and estimated
revenues Of the government.
The estimates submitted at the be-
ginning OF last session Of congress for
the new current year totaled $685.
S6O,643. The estimates for the next
fiscal year, submitted at the begin.
ming Of this session In the book of
estimates totaled s996, 6,949,2 ,23S, or an
Increase In the estimated expendi-
tHres for the next fiscal year over the
current year of slOO.SSs,465. The es-
timated total revenue for the next
fiscal year is sS7S.123,O11, while the
actual revenue, including postal reve.
nues, received during the last fiscal
year, which total revenue was larger
than that Of any previous year in the |
history OF the government-was only |
sS46. .725. .Ss9.
1T will be seen therefore that on
the basis Of the estimated expendL
lures and the estimated revenue for
the next fiscal year. the expenditures
as estimated exceed the revenue by
slls.s2e.277. This excess does not in.

TOCHECK BANKERS
Committee Appointed by Governor
Hughes During Monetary
Panic Reports.
SHOULD keep MORE RESERVE
Supervisory Control Of State superln-
tendent Over Moneyed InstItu-
tlons Should Be More DI.
rect and Intimate.

Albany, N. Y, Dec. 1S.-The com
mittee Of bankers appointed by Gov
Hughes during the monetary panic, tc
recommend notifications Of the New
York banking laws, reported to the
governor Tuesday measures which
would tend to prevent the develop
ment Of such panics.
The report, In general, expressed
the view that in New York City state
banks should maintain the same cash
reserve as national banks, namely, %
per cent, and that trust companies
should maintain, also, 25 per cent
reserve, not necessarily all in cash,
In their own vaults. A strong pre-
sentiment is made against the prac-
tlce Of promoters obtaining control OF
chain Of banks to further their own
financial schemes. The report says
that as New York City Is the financial
and commercial center OF this cont.
nent, her cash bank reserve must not
be permitted to become impaired.
The committee recommends that
the state superintendent Of banks be
empowered to veto establishment Of
. bank or trust company, or a branch
thereof or the purchase of the con.
troll Of one banking institution by an
other.
The committee believes that banks
IN New York City should not here
after be permitted to have branches
unless they possess capital of $780,
900; and we think that the banks and
trust companies should be required
to furnish an additional 100000 cap
iial for each branch opened"
In general, the committee would IN
crease and make more direct and In.
flmate the supervisory control OF the
state superintendent over dlI moneyad
Institutions.
In the matter OF investment and
loans, the committee recommend that
It be made compulsory "that all loans,
discounts and purchases Of CONNER.
clal paper shall be read to the d.
rectors or submitted in written form,
ct the meeting next succeeding the

 Never mind told him. If they want to see me very much or hear the speech they'll hunt me up on the stage. They'll find me all right.
 Another time I had a scene with Fol- liott Paget, an excellent actress, in which l delivered a speech with my back to the audience and going up flight of stairs to the exit. She pleaded with me to face about
 The house will want to sec your face when you say those lines, said she.

 Mr. Crane raised both hands in distress. T can't do that he declared I'm merely throwing out the germs of the ldeas. There must be many promising playwrights in the country who do not give us the best there is in them because they must perforce cater to the mob Write what they think the vogue of the moment is. Yet every little while people unheard of write remarkably successful plays-lke The Great Divide and The Ihree or Us, now running in New York ana sold out for weeks and monthsl ahead. The authors of these plays weres probably so suited that they could write what was in them-a good dramatic story
The Birmingham age-herald., 1907-03-03

and they write for what has come to be the popular taste-things that they believe VIII bring immediate returns and which usually do. But how many of the plays and comedies of today will live DO years like She Stoops to Conquer and The Rivals and The School for Scandal?' Those old comedies are virile and as well appreciated today as they were when they were first produced It is astonish- ing to observe night after night how well the old comedy situations in She Stoops to Conquer goes with the audiences. When they once get the thread of the story. when they realize that these two young fellows have come to the home of the pompous severe old chap, thinking it a public inn, the fun goes just as fast and as furious as any modern farce comedy.''
 DO you mean that the taste of the public has not progressed very far fin a couple of hundred years?"
 That isn't it,"- said Crane, Tt has progressed immeasurably. but these old comedies are so good that they still ap- peal. and probably always will appeal. Progressed? Well, I should say it had How far modern methods of play writing have progressed was not borne in upon me it is such a gradual process. until a few months ago. when MT. Robson and I played The Henrietta for the benefit of the actors home. Then I found to my surprise it was full of asides and other old-fashioned methods of presentation that have been long since dropped. We used to think that was a pretty good play in the old days. but 1t is hopelessly old-fashioned now-like The Senator.' I was surprised when l saw that recently and saw how far behind the times its construction was"

If there is nothing there that holds the mind-if there is no story there, nothing of dramatic interest-if every thing appeals to the eye alone that money is thrown away. The shows do not last more than a season or so and they do but little good while they are being presented.
 Think what might be done if the big producers of the country-I won't men ton any names,'' added Mir. Crane with rare discretion, If they took half of that money and expended 1t on some sort of a school for dramatists, put it into some sort of fund from which pls lsywrights might be supported and taken care of while they were studying the art of writ ing plays I don't know just what to suggest along that line except the general proposition
