Move to Prevent Pollution of Waters
BY Dumping Sewage.

Washington. April 9.-"Water pois-
oning' as he terms the almost univer-
sal practice of dumping raw sewage

life from primitive methods of sewage

Feb. IA last, showed deposits subject
to reserve requirements to the amount
of 1902, 1875, and outstanding bank
notes to the amount of $6s,sss, los, MAX
ing total amount subject to the guar
anty fund requirements of the Fow-
Ter bill 1911, OF, 800. The amount required
for the guarantee fund would be 5
per cent. of this amount, or $4S,553, 1876.
This looks at first blush like a formid-
able amount to draw from the cash
resources of the bank, but when it is
considered that it is counted as part
of the required reserves the question
is reduced simply to one of the local
i:y where the money is kept. The re-
serve requirements would be raised
from S2o5. 547, 1913 under existing law to
$242. 769,475. of which $4s.553,S95 would
be in Washington and 1894, $50
would be in cash in the custody of the
banks. The New York banks held more
cash on Feb. II than would be required
by the Fowler BILL and their position
in this respect would not be changed
to their disadvantage.

deposits to the amount of $4,S91 900,
and other bonds to secure public de-
posits to the amount Of $67,243,912, all
these would be returned to them and
they would be able to convert them at
will into cash.
The entire scope Of the bill is de-
signed to encourage commercial trans
actions by giving the banks control
of their own resources for loans to
customers. am satisfied that if bank
ers would take the time to analyze it's
provisions, they would be convinced
that instead Of being radical or dis
turbing, it is really moderate and
conservative measure which would
benefit them as well as their customers
and the public"

IaDanose Consul at muk-
den Not Very Cordial
When Given Report Of Attack
on American Consulate.
A.ks proef and Seeks to Olscredlt
Consul StraIsht's Story.

= pekin, April 9.-The American lega-
4 .,on here has received no Information
ss.srding the invasion of the American
consulate at Mukden, by Japanese. At
ihe Jananese legation partial vertical
sion was obtained together with ex'
Sressions of regret that such a small
natter should have been cabled to the
I7nited States. A court Of inquiry has
been ordered by M. Kato, the Japanese
consul general at Mukden.
A detailed account Of the incident OBJ
tanned from an authoritative source
shows that the conduct of M. Kato, in
The beginning might be described as
extraordinary-it is even said that he
was insolent.
when the matter was brought to his
attention he offered no apology nor did
he EXPRESS regret and he asked Mr..
straight to prove his own statements
as against the verbal declarations Of
the Japanese thugs involved. This Mr..
Straight declined to do, but he permit
ted a Japanese official to examine the
scene of the onslaught and to conduct
an investigation.
The American consul general twice
made formal representation of the
seriousness Of invading a consulate
protected by the flag and dragging the
servants of the consulate out into the
highway At the second presentation,
NJ, Kato's response was more cordial,
but he sought to discredit Mr..
Straight's protest by the declaration
of postman that the staff of the
consulate had attacked him.
The Iostman was bringing a letter
to the consulate. Unfortunately he
sought to enter the building by pri-
vate door which was barred. The
Chinese servants of the consulate OPP
posed him. MIR. Straight conducted the
postman to the main entrance. The
postman went away and returned with
the Japanese, who made the attack.
The consulate servants with sticks re-
sisted The postman during the scuf-
fe, entered Mr.. Straight's bedroom and
bit one of his personal servants in thu
face. Meanwhile the postman's accom-
plices had been captured by the three
other servants. The postman tried t.
call in reinforcemepts, but in this ne
was not successful.
In the meantime the Chinese police
had arrived and the invading Japanese
were arrested. The police were not Of
much use, for Mr.. Straight found il
necessary personally to guard the
prisoners with a firearm in his hand
and thus to convey them before M
pFkato. ooi.q-o ~
NJ Kato was in bed when Mr.
Straight and his prisoners arrived at
the consulate and this fact may pos
sibly explain his apathy. Satisfaction
is expressed in Pekin that the outrage
was not actually committed upon the
person of the American consul gen.
