ROOSEVELT ENTERS DENIAL.
President Says He Is Not Supporting
 Plan of Central Bank,

Washington, Jan. %. - President Roosevelt took hand in the currency agitation by having 1t specifically de nied that he was committed to the plan of central bank. This has been one of the arguments used to defeat the Aldrich bill. Those who favor a cen tral bank have permitted the report to be circulated widely that the president is committed to the idea, while those who favor an asset currency scheme have been as busily engaged In clrcu- lating the story that the president would view with favor the passage of the bill recommended by the American Bankers association.
 The president is not in favor of ei- ther of these plans now, but he is iD favor of bill to impart elasticity to the currency to prevent duplication next fall of the crisis of last October.

An amusing incident occurred this week within the dignified portals of the supreme court chamber says a Washington writer. The chamber looked like music store and the dis play of perforated sheet music, sam- pies of all mechanical music playing devices, etc, was occasioned by the presentation of test case to deter mine whether strict construction of the copyright law would protect the composer of music against the appro- priation of his music by the makers of mechanical music machines. The case has attracted wide attention among music publishers, and in the course of the proceedings the White Smith com pany selected for the test two songs on which they had copyrights. One was Little Cotton Dolly" and the other was Kentucky Babe" During the arguments counsel had stated the facts in connection with the first song. and then took up Kentucky Babe when Chief Justice Fuller, with a twinkle in his eye, inquired whether or not it was proper that Justice Harlan, who is from Kentucky. and is n vigorous yOungster of some seventy four years. should sit in the case. None of the justices laughed louder than Justice Harlan

crats. So he circulated a call for democratic caucus to oppose the bill. Many of the younger democratic sena- tors signed the call and all went we'll until they met Senator Teller. MT . Teller, who when he left the rcpub- lican camp and was baptized a demo- crat must have escaped entire immer- sion, refused positively to sign the call. He said he knew the democrats too well, that they could never get together on anything and would never stand together and he would not sign the call or be governed by the decision of a caucus. Then Senator Bailey was approached. He jumped on the proposition hard He said that Aldrich was prepared to accept an amendment that he, Bailey, was writ ing, and that he was quite certain he could amend the Aldrich bill until it was very god bill. This means, of course, that Aldrich had so fiattered Bailey, by agreeing to accept an un- important amendment, that he has won the absolute allegiance of the Texan. But Bailey and Teller are both members of the finance committeewhich Aldrich dominates, and with both op- posed to q democratic caucus and re- fusing to be bound by one, there was no hope of success, and so the idea was abandoned and another fine demo- cratic opportunity lost. Is it not dis heartening?

Dr Davenport certainly gives a
 unique reason for the decline of Pro
 testanlsm, which seems to be topic
 that will not be sidetracked at this time. The doctor says that men are good Protestants whether thew 20 to church Or not This certainly ought 10 be cheering news 10 the men and women who are known as the Sun day stay at homes. Nevertheless we think Dr Davenport would rather See every pew filled every Sunday rather than preach to q lot of empty berches. Several years ago the Democrat pub lished statistics showing the attend ance at all the city churches on e cer- tain Sunday. The showing made by the Protestant churches was SO small in comparison with the attendance at the Catholic churches that the read ing Of it actually drove Dr Anderson into seclusion for few days. and set him [" thinking more seriously than ever on the decline of Protestantigm. He never was able to explain it to his own or to the satisfaction of the re- porter who gathernd the news.
