GOOD PROGRESS
ON CURRENCY BILL
Many Amendments to the Aldrich
Act Are Disposed Of-Mat-
tiers in the House.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March %
Great progress was made by the Sen
ate to-day in dlsposing of proposed
amendments to the Aldrich currency
bill 1t was evident that the bin will
be perfected in the form approved by

The amendments reported by tie
committee were all adopted without
Opposition, and then one Senator after
another offered additional amendments,
which. except in the case of one pro-
posed by Senator Dupont and one by
Senator Lodge, were voted down.
Senator Duponts amendment provides
that during the first six months the
emergency currency is out interest
shall be paid at the rate of one-half
of / per cent. per month, and after
six months at the rate of three-fourths
of per cent per month. Mr. Aldrich
said this amendment would be accepted
by the committee. and it was agreed to.
The amendment by Mr.. Lodge admitted
bonds of the insular government ot
Porto Rico as a basis for the eme:-
gency currency.
Mr.. Nelson's amendment, providing
that national banks should be authoriz-
ed to loan upon farm mortgages, led
Senator Aldrich to declare that for
bank purposes the farm mortgages were
the last thing that could be accepted.
Several Senators from the Western
States arose to defend farm mortgages
as securities. Mr.. Aldrich replying that
he had no criticism to make of them as
securities. but merely wished to be
understood In saying that they We're
| wholly unfit to be used for banking
purposes.

saw an official communication from

Moreover. he said, on recent visit

that would lead him to believe that
he was persona non grata, to the
German government. In the absence
of official advices, Minister Hill de-
clined further to discuss the matter
The announcement Of Germany's at

surprise in French diplomatic circles
in which he is well known, and es-
peclally from his writings on inter-

Who ARREST HER

RENO, Aug. 27.--After cleyerly
robbing a Sparks barkeeper of 500
and touching two officers who assist
ed in arresting her for a valuable
stickpin and a gold ring, Irene Haw-
ley, alias Irene Dun, who is known
throughout the United States as the
queen of pickpockets" was arrested
last night by five deputies, and is now
confined In the city jail.
The exciting chase for the female
Dickpoeket began early in the even
ing, shortly after she had robbed the
Sparks barkeeper. Constable Malay
arrested the woman in Reno and was
proceeding to Sparks with her on the
street car. He had secured the 500
when suddenly he discovered that the
money was missing from his pocket
and also that he was minus a valu-
able stickpin. He stopped the car
Immediately and began a search for
the missing articles.
When the car was stopped the
prisoner left it and climbed into an
auto which was at Wleland's park
and drove rapidly to Sparks. When
her machine was going rapidly down
the road she jumped out and landed
In a swamp, getting thorough
soaking and being considerably
bruised. She then returned to Jack
Vera's roadhouse, and Maxwell and
party followed, reinforced by five
deputies, where they captured her.
