faults in the currency system of this

The truth is that the money N this

that 1t Is concentrated at points that
dominate the banking interests. and
that the people who need the money
and the agricultural sections OF the
country are unable to procure 1t when
the necessity arises and are sacrificed
to crafty and appease the demands
that are concentrated around the finan-
cial centres.

BY UNANIMOUS VOTE
Senate Committee Amends the AZ
drich Currency Bill
MAIN OBJECTION REMOVED
Railroad Bonds Eliminated as Secur-
ity for Emergency Circulation
OF National Banks.
MAIN OBJECTION REMOVED

Washington, March 1.-THE senate
committee on finance voted unani-
mously to amend the Aldrich financial
bill by eliminating railroad bonds as
lation. It also was decided to amend
the bill so as to retain the provision
of the present law prohibiting the re-
tfrement by national banks of more
than $9,000,0O0 of circulation in any
one month. The committee discussed
the proposition of increasing the tax
alton on emergency circulation out
standing more than six months. The
is 6 per cent. No action was taken
on this feature.
An amendment also was agreed to
affecting the amount Of circulation
which may be taken out on bonds of
the various kinds applicable for such
purposes. Tie bill Erovideks that cir
culating notes may be issued equal in
amount to 80 per cent of the market
value of any bonds deposited. The
amendment adopted adds the pro-
vision that the issuance shall not be
in excess, however, of the par value
Of the bonds. This is intended to
meet the criticism that certain securi-
ties might be inflated above par value
through the action of spectators and
the committee believes the amend
ment will effectually eliminate such

MASSACRE IS FEARED
Conditions in Hayti Suddenly As

Government Threatens to Go After
Refugees Under Foreign
Protection.

Paris, March 16.-The situation be-
tween the Haytian government and
France has become acute and critical.
The French legation at Port au Prince
Is menaced and a general massacre of
the white residents of the island is
feared. This information was con-
veyed in an Official dispatch to the
foreign Office from NJ Carteron, the
French minister to Hayti.
The latter part of last week M.
Borno, the Haytian minister of state,
assured M. Carteron that Hayti would
agree to allow the refugees who had
taken asylum in the French consulates
at Gonadves and St. Marc to leave the
island. Now there comes the news of

tsron that General Nord Alexis, pres

70 confirm the assurances given by M.
Borno but had fatly declined to per-
mit the refugees in the consulates to
depart. Eleven additional persons
have taken asylum at the French le-
cation.
The French cruiser d'Estrees is ex-
pected very soon at Gonaives, where
she will act in cooperation with the
British and German ships of war now
on their way to Hayti.
Firmin Among the Refugees.
General Antenor Fir1nin, who led
the last revolt in Hayti, is among the
refugees under the French flag. The
foreign office recognizes that the gen
eral and his followers are revolution
lists, but it declined to hand them over
to the Haytian government on the
ground that there were no assurances
that the men would have a legal trial.
In this connection it was explained
that, according to French tradition,
any man who sought refuge under the
French flag should have at least tenn
porary protection. The refugees num-
ber about 100 in ALL
The French foreign Office pointed

it was only following out the French
traditional policy in Hayti and it ex-

to overturn his government
