CENTRAL BANK SCHEME FAVORED BY
AMERICAN MONETARY COMMISSION

London, Sept. 24-The United
States monetary commission, which
was here several weeks investigating
the banking systems of Great Britain
and the continent, will recommend
some form of the central bank system
for the United States
United States Senator Aldrich is
head of the commission. and, while
he has made no public announcement
of his views, the American commits
sion has been so cordially received by
London bankers that exchanges of
views have been freely made.
Did Not Conceal Views.
The London Office of a we'll known
New York banking house was especial
ly helpful to the members of the COM
mission during their conferences with
officials of the Bank of England and
privately there was no concealment
on the part of the Americans that
their own banking system was, from
their viewpoint, inadequate, and that

Madison, Sept. 24-The political
feature of Judge Taft's trip today
through Wisconsin occurred here at
noon when Senator Robert NJ. La Fol-
lette addressing an immense audience
at the Farmers National congress
placed himself upon record in most
enthusiastic praise of the republican
presidential candidate whom he intro.
duced to the audience. He said in
part:
LIS Well Equipped.
Mature gave him poise, judicial
temperament, great force of character
and tenacity as to purpose. His long
life in the public service is distin-
gushing for its marked ability its
wisdom, its integrity, its patriotism
He has taken advanced ground upon
the great issues that are engaging the
profoundest thought of the people of
this great country.
Declares He Is Progressive.
Now from a somewhat intimate
acquaintance with him for the past 20
years | say today he is progressive

Taft Arises Hoarse.
Beloit, Wis, Sept. 24.-After a re-
freshing sleep in cornfield where the
Taft special stopped for several hours
last night, Candidate Taft was out on
the rear platform of his car at 1880
this morning responding to the de-
mands at Caledonia, H., for a speech.
In the few words of good cheer spoken
by the candidate it was demonstrated
DR.. Richardson, the Washington throat
specialist, would have work to do.
Otherwise than a hoarseness Taft de-
, clared himself to be in fine fettle.
Talks to Labor.
A large gatherinfg of people
greeted Taft at the Northwest
ern station here. After breakfast
Taft was introduced by Congressman
Cooper. He talked particularly to the
laboring men, recited what the re-
publican party had done for labor and
promised to continue favorable legis-
lation if elected president

he stands on all sides of political ques-
tions.

Peoria, ILL.,, Sept 24.-The Buckeye
Powder company, of which r. s. Wad-

sold its plant at Edwards Station to
F. w. Olin, president of the Equitable
Powder company of East Alton, and
Almon Lent, president of the Austin
Powder company of Cleveland, Ohio,

Despite the fact that the Equitable

was commenced Tuesday in Whining

ernment institutions of the country
would provide a greater degree of
elasticity than is now possible under
the currency laws in America.
British System Partly Favored.
The members of the commission did
not express themselves as being in
favor of the British banking system
except as to certain features bearing
on the general idea of a central bank.
The actual environment of different
banking systems than those in Amer
lea has a marked effect on the minds
of the members of the commission as
compared with academic discussions OF
historical research. Here and on the
continent the commission mad individ
ual transactions, individual experiences
and individual explanations of work
ings of European banking methods
which could not be so clearly obtained
through the ordinary publications
bearing on the subject.

Springfield, H.. Sept. 2i.-Abraham
Raymer, alleged leader in the recent
mObs, was found not guilty of murder
last night. The verdict came after
deliberation of three hours. during
which only one ballot was taken.
Raymer thanked the jury and was
then returned to the county Jail to
await trial on other charges, which
include rioting and malicious destruc-
ton of property.
The acquittal of Raymer is the first
echo in court on the recent riots in
Springfield. He was indicted on a
charge of numbering William Dome
gan, an aged colored man, who was
lynched by a mob at his home at
Spring and College streets. Raymer
was arrested near these scene by De-
tective Evan T. Jones and has since
been a prisoner.
