What merry time it was up at the Polo Grounds
yesterday! The crack of bats enlivened every inn
ing, and when the was setting the tired
scorers compared their tally sheets and announced
that New York had gathered eleven runs from
sixteen hits, while the ST. Louis nine had failed

lfcGinnity had allowed McGinnity could Just as
well have given the Cardinals a run or TWO at

Devlin: he too, getting four hits while Seymour
and Mccormick picked up three apiece. The Giants

not unconnected with their batting averages, added
two more later for good measure

SATURDAY. MAY ls. 1908.
A Weak Spot in the vreeland Bill.


The most impressive objection urged
against the Vreeland bill by its opponents
on the floor Of the House is that the re-
demption Of the proposed emergency
currency imposes too great a burden on
the United States Treasury. Mr.. Fowler
for example. declared that instead OF
removing the burden of the redemption
OF 500 0o0, 600 OF bank notes now resting
upon the United States Treasury directly
TO She banks themselves. this bill adds a
possible additional burden of $500, 000.000
and necessarily imperils the national
credit. The result viii be to compel the
government to sell bonds to redeem the
bank notes with absolute certainty In the
event of a deficit which IS sure TO fol-
low business distress, and in the event Of
war may be the means Of forcing the
government OFF the gold standard and to
a credit basis" Mr. Hill. OF Connecticut;
Mr. Prince. Mr.. Waldo, and others com
mented unfayorahly on the redemption
feature, their criticism agreeing substan-
tally with that expressed by Mr.. Fowler
While the Vreeland bill provides that
the assets OF issuing banks shall be held
liable for the redemption OF the emer-
gency currency, IL requires the Treasury
70 perform the actual Office Of redemp-
tion. The notes must be redeemed in
lawful moRey-that is TO say in gold; for
all lawful money Of the United States is
the equivalent OF gold. But the banks
may pay into the Treasury. for the pur-
pose Of redeeming the emergency is
sues, their own notes. How this system
may operate TO drain the Treasury of
gold by q process strongly reminiscent
Of the endless chain of silver coinage
days appears in the experience OF the
Treasury at this moment Millions Of
dollars in bank notes issued during the
late panic have been presented al the
Treasury for redemption. and as fast as
they have been redeemed the Treasury
stock Of gold has been diminished by so
much for although the bank notes are
not redeemable in gold. they are re-
deemahle in United States notes, for
which gold may be demanded.
Yet in actual operation the Vreeland
bin may not entail any Of the dire con-
sequences predicted by its critics. The
treasury does not usually have any trOu-
bic about bank note redemption. and the
process provided in the Vreeland bill for
the retirement OF an emergency currency
Is essentially that by which existing
bank notes are retired. But the con-
tingencies feared ought 10 be guarded
against in any currency legislation. and
will undoubtedly receive consideration
from the cOnferees on the Vreeland-Al-
drich measures. Both these bills appear
To have been framed on the assumption
that the Treasury surplus is d permanent
institution-an assumption that ignores
the stubborn facts Of declining revenues
and growing expenditures. Financial ex-
periments may be conducted with ap-
proxImate safety when there is an
sbounding Treasury; the peril lies In de-
fcient revenues.
