Start Work Soon.

recently awarded contract to build the
addition to the new federal building, is in
Ogden ready to begin operations in about
ten days. 1t will be necessary to tear
out the entire north wall, but on account
on the cement probably not more than
third of the material can be used again.
The plans for the annex call for the eX-

plus the amount left over from the orig

At the minority conference some
weeks ago. which resulted in the in
PRODUCTION by John Sharp Williams of
the minority currency bill, the plan
was practically agreed to that the
Democratic members of the banking
and currency committee should at the
proper time make minority report Of
fering the Williams bill as substitute
for the Fowler bill. They tentatively
agreed that a joint conference be held
by the minority of the finance COM
mittee in the senate and banking and
currency committee in the house. That
conference has not been held. The rea-
son reported is that the minority in the
senate has bound itself TO the Bailey
bill as a substitute for the Aldrich bill,
and therefore is unwilling to confer
with the house minority on the Will
liams bill.
Ten days was granted by the COM
mittee to the Democratic members in
which to agree upon a substitute meas
ure for the Fowler bill and to submit
a minority report.
FowIer's Synopsis.
Chairman Fowler tonight made pub
lie a synopsis of the committee report
which he will make up and submit to
the house.
The synopsis claims for the bill that
it will unity the banking interests OF
the United States; will secure a uni
form and adequate reserve in gold coin
to prove all bank credits and thereby
protect the interests of all depos;tors;
establish a scientific and simple none
tary system; will give the country a
true credit currency system by which
current credits will always increase
and decrease in strict accordance with
the demands of business; viii give to
bankers, farmers, producers, manufac-
turers and merchants and to all others
having bank accounts the right to nave
their credits in that form which will
best serve their needs; viii give to the
masses of the people just as ecoHom-
ical and cheap credits as the rich and
powerful have; will establish d curren-
cy based upon the products of labor
and redeemable in gold coin; viii give
to producers and merchants the op-
portunity to coin their commodities
into currency which the banks will be
compelled to redeem in gold coin; will
establish in the United States treasury
an approximate fund of 500, 900, 900 to
guarantee the redemption. of these
notes in gold coin and protect all de-
positors of national banks, thereby
preventing panics and stopping the
boarding of money: will completely d.
vorce the operations of the United
States treasury from the trade and
commerce of the country, and thereby
prevent continuance Of disturbing
factor in the business of the country.
