WON'T FIGHT ALDRICH BILL.
Minority Senator's Said to Have
Reached This Determination.

IA.
The Democratic Senators held two long
conferences yesterday in an effort to
reach a conclusion on the pending fnan-
cial legislation.
Three measures were considered. but
the debate covered the whole range of
political economy, and while 1t was at
all times harmonious, no conclusion look
ing to party action was reached.
The bills considered included one pre-
pared by Senator Bailey. but not yet
introduced. which will probably form the
basis of a minority report to be made
by Mir. Bailey from the Finance Com
mittee. Another bill by Senator Nc
LauTin, Of Mississippi which authorizes
the issue Of currency based upon ware
house receipts for cotton deposited. re-
ceived some attention. a bill by Senator
CuIbersOn, of Texas, concerning ma
tional bank reserves, came in for a
share of consideration Senator Owen. Of
Oklahoma, explained his bill to guarantee
depOsitors in national banks
The discussion. it is said, developed the
conviction of the Democrats that the
Aldrich bill would pass. and that the
minority would not flibusteF against IT,
Instead, the Democrats will content
themselves with offering their substitute
and debating the financial question for
probably ten days or so. Then they will
permit vote on the Aldrich bill. and
place the responsibility for its enact
ment on the majority by voting against
it and for their own measure.
