THE DOINGS OF CONGRESS
poings Of Our National 1aw-Maker.
Day by Day.
Fowler Financial Bill.

The principles OF the Fowler nnan-
cial bill were defended by former
Secretary Of the Treasury Lyman J..
Gage, Charles A. Conant, Of New
York, and Prof. Joseph French
johnson, of the New York Univcr-
sity, before the House committee on
banking and currency.
Secretary Gage said that we had
reached the most important period
in the financial history Of the coun-
try for the past 30 or 50 years and
that the solution Of the problem de-
pended largely upon the men making
up the banking and currency COM
mittee.
1t was early impressed upon him,
said Mr.. Gage, that credit currency
issued OH proper assets, received and
exchanged, containing only tho
amounts Of credit, was an effective,
useful and economic agency in tho
industrial progress Of the people and
was the best system Of bar:>sng.
Mr.. Gage said he thought the
financial system ought to be revised
from the very beginning. He re-
garded the Fowler bill as a compre-
hensive measure which in contrast to
the one offered in the Senate has
reached the fundamentals.
Continuing, Mr.. Gage said ~
have no sympathy at all with the
Aldrich bill. I do not think it is
curative of our evils. At best it is a
! patch or panacea which may once
in 10 years be availed Of, when the
country is in condition Of intense
panic or when many OF the evils Of
e panic are developing and it may
not be effective then. In tho mean
time. if adopted, it will probably put
lis to sleep. 1t is gentle narcotic
hat woocs us in false repose from
which we will suffer many a night
mare and from which we will awak-
en- at least in truble and real agony,
AS a banker, lie. said, he would ask
to come under the provisions Of the
Fowler bill and would look with
dread and apprehension if the AID
rich bill should become law.
National Bank Failures.
In response to o Senate resolution
introduced by Mr.. Tillman, Secretary
| Cortelyou sent to the Senate re-
port showing that 3O6 national banks
were placed in charge of receivers
between January 1st, 1893, and JAM
uary 31st, 1908. The aggregate cap
ital of these banks was $4S,736,52O.
Exclusive of the banks which have
failed since October 3lst, 1907, the
dividends paid on claims proved
amounted to $65,469,O12; the offsets
allowed and settled amounted to
$11 ,7s9, 1882, while theloans paid and
other disbursements amounted to
i 25,171,1 ,166, making $1O2,439, ,l6o
which was paid to creditors. There
was returned to shareholders in cash
and other assets $7O52,329. Assess
ments made on shareholders amount
ed to $24,397,24O Of which $l2,O9S,-
329 was collected.

The alleged inability of the police de-

Rumors of indictments to be re-

activity
The raids upon three handbook men
by the sheriffs men yesterday and the

MINORITY HELD OUT FOR
MANSLAUGHTER CHARGE
BluecOat, Who Was Under Bail,
Is Freed of All Criminal
Responsibility.

No Indictment has been found against
Policeman John f. Weber, of the First
Precinct, who shot and killed Frank
Ides. alias Dutch Ides and the "Jer-
sey Jesse James," early on the morning
of Washington's Birthday. This in
formation was definitely learned oy
THE EVENING STAR today.
The case was before the grand Jurors
late yesterday afternoon, and, accord
ing to the best of authority, there was
hot discussion that ended in the
vote which releases Weber from all
criminal responsibility in the death OF
the burglar.
That some of the jurors wanted an
Indictment on the technical charge Of
manslaughter caused a delay in the
vote. But the opponents of such a find
ing finally prevailed. The case was
presented to the Jurors by Prosecutor
Henry Young, who cited the law in
cases of this class. The very first vot ,
showed the position of the majority
of the jurors. The minority, however
made up for it's lack of numbers, and
kept the majority guessing.
The technical charge of manslaughter
was made at the suggestion of Prose-
cutor Young by Police Captain Ryan,
soon after the shooting
Weber, few days afterward, ap-
peared before Judge Ten Eyek in Quar-
ter Sessions, where he was bailed in
$1,000. This was furnished by former
State Senator Michael T. Barrett, who
had volunteered to defend the man.
Among the principal witnesses before
the Grand Jury were George Veth, the
brakeman in the Pennsylvania Rail-
road, who was among the first to see
the burglar and his companions prowl-
ing around Frelinghuysen avenue;
County Physician Daniel Elliott, who
performed the autopsy; Captain Nc
Kahn, of Engine, Company No 10, near
whose Headquarters the shooting oc-

company, and Fireman Hager.

The Simon girl was engaged by Lit

that he told her a few days ago that
her services would not be required

however, tells a different story and
intimates that Litvanyi promised to

Precinct at $40 o'clock, and he sent
the patrol wagon with Policeman
