Nicaraguan, register.
The latest information from Consul
Moffatt ut Bluetields Is that the E,s-
fuerzo was American owned. but tina
she sailed under the Nicaraguan flag.
1t was assumed by him that she had
a Nicaraguan register. Therefore, he
stated. the schooner was not entitled
to protection of the United States.

ATTORNEY GENERALS IN SESSION
Half the States Represented at Meeting
in ST. Paul


st. Paul, May 26.-Attorney general
and their assistants from more than
half the states in the union are here to
attend the fourth annual convention of
the National Association of Attorneys
general, which opened at the state
ca ptol today. Attorney General Simp-
son Of Minnesota called the convention
TO order at II o'clock and delivered the
opening address, his subject being
"The Removal of Cases to Which the
State is Party From State to Fed
eral Courts President +. S. Jackson,
attorney general OF Kansas, delivered
the annual address. and Charles West
attorney general of Oklahoma, spoke
on ''The Federal Railroad Bill"
Addressing the convention of attor-
ney generals today, Attorney General
Jackson, Of Kansas, argued in favor of
national democracy. which he defined
as a "revivified democratic govern
ment" He defended the increasing
scope and power of the government in
the state and nation and warned fed
eral courts that unless there was linn
itation of the power to issue injunc-
tons the people would demand limited
terms for judges and their election
by the people.

make desperate effort to have the
minimum fixed at rs per cent.
Provisions of Senate Bill.

The senate bill provided that all the
funds were to be deposited IN national
or state banks in the locality, at not
less than 2A per cent sinterest. The
depository banks were to give security
in the form of indemnity bonds, but
might, at their option, deposit collater-
al security instead, such' collateral
to be approved by the board of trustees
Whatever deposits the local banks re-
fused to receive might be placed with
the treasurer Of the United States. to
be withdrawn to repay depositors or
to invest in United States securities.
The investment in United States Sc
curities was thus allowed only when
the local banks refused to accept the
deposit Of postal funds.
Funds normally held by the banks
could, under the senate bill, only be
withdrawn for investment in United
States securities when in the judg-
ment of the president, war or any other
exigency involving the credit OF the
government" required it.
Thus the senate act provided In er-
feet for permanent deposit in bank
subject to withdrawal only at a time
when, in the judgment of the presi-
dent, the government, with it's credit
really imperi1ed by some extraordl-
nary emergency, needed the funds tt
invest in it's own securities.
House Measure Is Safer.
The Gardner bill was framed on an
other theory, under which the system
is made to depend not so completely or
the solvency Of the banks. By IT.
provisions postal savings funds, or
their way into the hands of the trus'
tees, pass thru the national or state
banks At any given time, however,
per cent of the total savings funds /:
held by the treasurer Of the United
States as reserve; of the other 95 pei
cent one-half is on deposit with the
banks and the other half is invested IL
government bonds.
The system, therefore, is for all O.
the money to be in a state of flow
thru the banks at such a speed tina
47k per cent of the total. but no more
is constantly with them. An added
restriction is that the amount deposited
in any one bank must never exceed the
paid in capital and one-half of the sur
plus of the bank.
Such funds as the local banks refuse
to receive must be deposited with the
treasurer, to be counted in making uI
the per cent reserve, and to be with
drawn when necessary to pay the de.
positors, or when the board wishes tc
make investments. The 47h per CEN
which remains constantly in the banks
may be withdrawn only by direction Of
the president, and only when, in hi:
Judgment, the interests Of the United
States require it.
