THE MINORITY
CURRENCY BILL

Representative John Sharp Will
liams. OF Mississippi, the Democratic
leader of the house, drew the meas
ure as a result of conference of
Democrats behind closed doors
Among the provisions Of the bill are
the following:
It repeats all laws permitting ma
tional banks to keep three-ffths OF
their reserves in national banks OF
reserve cities, and similar laws per-
hitting such deposits OF one-half Of
the reserve amounts.
It provides that not less than one
half of the reserves now reqU red to
be kept in lawful money in central
reserve cities shall be hereafter held
in gold or gold certificates.
IL does away with the payment Of
national bank examiners by the fee
system, and substitutes salaries
IT provides that the total llabili-
ties of any national bank, inclusive
of the Utilities of its members. shall
not exceed one-tenth OF the banks
paid-in and unimpaired surplus
fund.
No national bank shall loan In
the aggregate more than seven times
the amount of its paid-up capital,
plus its unimpaired surplus.
Any national bank may keep so
per cent. OF its reserve in United
States bonds or in the bonds of GER
tain municipalities; but not more
than one-fourth OF the total reserve
may be kept in state or municipal
bonds
Agreement TO accept the provisions
shall entitle state banks and trust
companies TO the benefits OF the new
law.
The elastic currency feature Of the
bill Is contained in a section which
provides that these inter-convertlble
bonds may be deposited "1n the
nearest sub-treasury," and the de-
posting bank shall receive in lieu
thereof United States emergency
treasury notes" These notes shall
be in the nature Of loan, subject to

the ringside now. Sullivan pounded
Palmer wickedly for ten rounds and
beat him decisively. This was the end
OF Palmer's championship aspira-
tions on the other side. He could
not have obtained a match with any
fighter OF note. even IL he had made
the effort
Il have watched Palmer II his
boxing practice several times since
his return home and he has inn
proved wonderfully, though he was
never the poor boxer that American
critics made him out TO be. There
are many excuses TO be offered for
his poor showing on that occasion.
He made trip OF some 1000 miles
or more to meet well-trained fight
er under conditions absolutely
strange TO him. The climate on the
west coast OF the United States is
the most peculiar in the world. and
IT sometimes takes months, especi-
ally for an athlete, TO become accli-
mated
Palmer made the long trip into
this enervating climate and landed
on the scen OF the combat only five
days before the day set for battle
What little time he had to train
probably did him more harm than
good. At any rate. he was certainly
far below his best form in that mill
This does not explain his defeat
at the hands OF Moir, but there is a
word 10 be said on that point. AS
said, have watched Palmer's work
since his return from America. and
note a decided Improvement in his
skill. The Americans. apparently.
have no little men who are the
masters OF ours N boxing. but their
big fighters can certainly teach MS
The old-fashioned heavy style OF
hghting will not prevail against the
American heavyweights. They fight
in much the same style as do their
little men. They are wonderfully fast
for their weight. and when pitted
against a strong, heavy foe, they
know how TO wear and worry him
The American critics were loud in
their praises OF his "gameness" af-
ter his fight with Sullivan. He can
also think. He observed and profited
by many things in his fight with Sui
Ivan, and he has certainly improved
to a remarkable degree watched
him box the other day and his work
surprised me. He has picked up
many of the American tricks that
make for the prowess of the
Yankees"

BURNS-PALMER SCRAP
INTERESTS LONDON SPORTS

London, Feb. 1O.-Despite the
fact that Tommy Burns. the Ameri-
can heavyweight champion, is a 70
l favorite over Jack Palmer. whom,
he will meet tonight at Wonderland
the greatest interest is manifested
In the battle among London sports.
1t is likely that when the men enter
the ring tonight they will be greeted
by one OF the largest crowds ever
congregated about a London prize
ring. Seats are selling rapidly a,

seats. Wonderland is the second Ma
tional Sporting club OF the English
metropolis and the only club where
tickets are sold at the door
Burns is confident OF winning an
easy victory over Palmer and has
offered to wager any amount on the
result of the battle at any reason.
able odds. Very little Palmer money
is in sight. Among the rank and fle
OF English sports, Palmer's stock has
gone down considerably since the
poor showing he made against Bobby
Dobbs, the colored American fighter
whom he fought a few weeks ago
Dodds is admittedly third-rater
yet Palmer had all he could do tc
get the decision in a six round mill
Many experts declare that Palmer
will do well to last Ave FUNDS with
Burns. There will probably be les.
money wagered on the battle thar

heavies that has ever taken place ir

AT the rate seats are selling, tn,
winner should make a good thing OF
the battle, as so per cent of the re-
ceipts will go to the fighters, divided
rs and %. There is also a side be-
OF $4,000 on the mill, which should
be easy picking for the American.
While the option is almost gen.
eral that Burns will win easily. there
are few experts on the game who
profess to believe that Palmer has q
chance to get away with the big end
or the purse. One of the most promi.
nent men in London pugilistic circles
shares this opinion, and gives his
reasons in the following language:
Early last year Palmer made the
trip across the states, and there on
the western coast met Jack Irwin

little more poundage than a middle.

fighter OF that division, though he
