the heirs of John Altenburg, with the re-
ceivers of the Venezuela Syndicate. Under
instructions he had turned over the entire
estate, it being impossible to determine
accurately what part might have been
acquired honestly. and what part was the
proceeds Of the embezzlement. Beckwith
himself had protested until he was hoarse
against such an unbusinesslike act. aver
ring that fair terms of settlement could
be obtained that would more than sat-
isfy men who had never looked to obtain
a dollar, and still leave substantial sum
for the heirs. Calden, however, had set
his face like a flint against such a propo-

supported him.

CHICAGO, September 15-Speaker Jo-

the convention Of the American Bankers
Association here yesterday in speech
in which he announced his hostility to
changes In the present currency laws,
declared there would be no possibility or
adopting a revision at the winter session
of Congress, and empha sized the declara-
ton that the $500 bankers who filled the
theater formed only a spoke in the i'm
mense wheel Of the national government.
He was the star feature of the days
program. The Speaker praised the pres
ent currency system as best suited to
this country's needs and declared that
the German and English systems were
unified for a nation like ours.
Fowler Currency Crank"
He paid his respects to Congressman
Fowler. whom he deposed from the chair
manship of the House committee on
banking and currency. He did not men
ton him by name, but every banker knew
that the New Jerseyite was the man to
whom he referred as currency crank"
who sent his useless currency remedies
to every congressman.
Uncle joe also denounced the uplift
magazines and the congressman who
have angleworms where their backbones
ought to be- He took occasion to de-
fend the Aldrich-Payne tariff revision,
and prophesied that there would be no
revision for another decade, estimating
the cost Of the recent one at $1OO,OOO,OOO.
"Czarism' he also defended, and de-
clared that no Congress would ever ex-
list without the present rules He further
took occasion to issue a warning that
there would be no immense bond issues
for internal waterways, government roads
and other big projects that are seeking

We may suspect that California
and Nevada are going too fast in
their anti-Japanese legislation, but
on the other hand the president was
not wise in butting into the game
with his attempt to co-erce the leg
islators of state. And above all
claims that Japanese are smart and
industrious, above the Nippon
threats of war, above the clamor of
Industrial corporations who want
cheap labor, rises this indisputable
fact; that Japs are an alien race.
They cannot marry or be absorbed
into the American nation.
They must be kept out, and no
price is to great to pay. Better q
war with Japan now, than another
civil war over the race question.
