THE ALDRiCH BILL.
Railroad Bond Feature of Currency
Bill Being Worked Out.

Washington, Feb. 23.-The railroad
bond feature of the Aldrich currency
bill was discussed informally Satur-
day by the Senate committee on
finance. Senator Daniels announced
that he was working on an amend
ment intended to broaden the scope
of the bond feature so as to permit the
use of securities of certain railroads
in the South.
Under the bill as it was reported. the
Louisville & Nashville and the Illinois
Central are the only roads in the
South whose securities may be used as
basis for emergency circulation, as
these roads are the only ones that
have met the requirements in regard
to the payment of interest on I'LL
classes of bonds.
The committee is not in favor of
limiting the railroad securities to
those Of lines on which the physical
interstate commerce commission as
such restriction would require years of
work to gain the necessary informa-
ton.
An amendment to the bill has been
adopted providing that bonds of rail-
roads which regularly make reports 10
the commission under the provisions Of
the recent railroad act shall be the
only railroad securities that may be
accepted by the treasury as basis for
circulation

On transportation Of Liquor Is Most
Favorably Considered.

Washington, Feb. 2S-Hearings on
the various bills to regulate Interstate
commerce on intoxicating liquors, with
a view to preventing shipments into
Dry states or counties will be closed
by the Senate committee on the Judi
ciary next Saturday. The arguments
are being made before a sub-commit-
tee consisting of Senator Knox, chair
man and Senators Nelson, Fulton Ba-
con and Raynor Probably no uues-
ton before Congress, not excepting the
currency problem has had so much
attention during the present session
1t is of vital interest in every state in
the South and to half the Northern
the Western states.
The indications are that the sub
committee will recommend the passage
Of the Bacon bill. 1t provides that in
toXicating liquors within the border of
any state shall be within the lawful
police powers of such state but that
the state shall not interfere with the
transportation of liquors. 1t provides
that the bill of lading accompanying
the shipment shall declare the destina-
ton and that the transportation shall

point of consignment. Senator Bacon
pointed out during the hearings that
it is no sense q prohibitory bill and II
enacted into law would not of itself
interfere with the sale of liquors in any
place. The sole purpose of the meas
ure is so to regulate interstate COM
| merce in intoxicating liquors by Con-
| gressioEal acts to remove the barriers
| created by thu operation Of the inter-
state commerce law to permit state
10 exercise full control of the traffic
within its borders. Succinctly stated
II would secure to each state the right
and the power to enact and to enforce
laws which will regulate and control
the liquor traffic in such state in such
mannor as its people may elect.
The passage of the Bacon bill will
give to each state the right to deter
mine whether there shall or shall not
be within its borders any traffic in in
toNicating liquors. The same power
will extend to county of a state so
that it may be determined whether the
restriction shall be wholly or in part
Under the bill the state could entirely
exclude liquors from its borders or if
1t desired could permit liquor traffic.
Furthermore. any state would have
the power if its people so elected 70

Az ALARM of fire was rung at about
$50 O'Clock last evening from box 26
on account of a fire in the house OF

was chopped in the wall. one pail of
water being sufficient to put out the
blaze.
