MONEY SHORTAGE UNLIKELY
Banks Provided for Anticipated Scare
Months Ago.
ALL BUMPER CROPS REPORTED
America VIII Be Favored by Balance
of Trade-Vast sum in Emergency
Currency Available to Avoid
StrtnEency.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 26.-It is
unlikely that there will be any shortage
of money this fall anywhere in the United
States, according to the view of the
treasury department In it's opinion the
danger mark, If there actually has been
one during several months past, has
been left astern. The department Of
ficials give these reasons for their pre-
diction Of plentiful money:
Primarily the banks saw what looked
like a money shortage several months
ago. They knew they could expect no
help from the United States treasury
such as they got in 1908, and prepared
themselves. They have piled up money,
piling up reserves and cutting down
risky loans and bends or other securities
which might not be easy to sell have
been turned into money.
BY doing all this the banks have forti-
fled themselves against an emergency
How well they did it was seen last week
when $10.00O,0O0 was moved out of New
York to other banks and done very cas-
lily. Panics foreseen, never come. finan-
ciers say.
Money Plentiful in Europe.
Money is plentiful in England and on
the continent of Europe That is always
said TO be a good sign in making a pre-
diction for this country
Nearly every crop in this country this
year is reported TO be a bumper one.
Corn will set a new record. Four
fifths of the crop has been gath cred, so
the chances of loss from frost is small
The oat crop is the greatest in years.
The cotton crop will be 100000 bales
greater than it was last year. Nearly all
other crops are reported very large
Next month 1t is estimated investors
all over the country will receive nearly
$17O. O0O.0 900 in dividend checks from in
dustrial, railroad and other corporations.
That will add. of course. to the money
generally in circulation. The record
crops are one argument against a money
shortage because they mean that the
United States will have a great amount
Of food and manufacturing materials to
sell to Europe.
Europe in the meantime will be sell
ing material to America, but undoubtedly
not to the extent that II did last year
and therefore will owe Americans
money. Thus several more millions Of
dollars viii come into circulation for
business.
Balance of Trade FRvOrs.
This is what financiers call the bal
ance of trade" and in such an instance
1t would be I'm our favor" II the re-
verse was true, II crops had been poor
and Europe sold the United States more
than 1t bought, the United States would
have to pay the difference in gold. as Il
did last August TO the extent of $1,000
600 and the balance of trade" would
be against u.s.
The question may be asked, why the
treasury department could not help the
banks now as it did in 1905 Because il
has not the money. The expense of digging
the Panama canal is from 100000 to $4,000
900 a month, and is a great drain on the
nations ready cash.
1t was the intention TO build the canal

First Clash of Attorneys.
The first severe clash of the hearing
came when Attorney Austrian asked what
money was promised White. He replied:
IT asked Browne how much I would get
from other sources and he replied. oh,
about as much more. "
Senator Lorimer's attorney objected to
this answer arguing that the "other
sources" were entirely outside the case.
This brings up" he said. what has
been referred to the Jack pot By the
words of the witness-'other sources'-it is
shown that it has no connection with the
election Of Senator Lorimer."
To which Attorney Austrian replied:
1--WE claim this line OF testimony is
revelant because we will show that the
democratic state senators and representa-
lives who voted for Senator Lorimer, voted
for him as a part of system in which
their votes on other measures and their
vote for Senator Lorimer were correlated.
We are trying to show there was general
state of corruption in that legislature and
men there were trying to bride others"
The committee retired into executive ses-
sion to consider admissability of this line
Of evidence.
Whites answer, which was brought on
the argument relative to the Jack pot"
was:
II saw Browne May %, the day before /
voted for Lorimer, and asked him what l
was to get. He said % me. You are not
afraid to leave that to me, are you? re-
piled, No. / am not afraid, but / would
like to know Then he said: You will get
81 900 ready cash, but keep that under your
hat, for / am suspicious of that little place
above here they call Joliet Then l asked
him what l would get from other sources
and he replied. about as much more
The committee considered the admiss-
bility of the jackpot testimony for some
time in executive session and upon return

and bazars and strange people, and begins
to long for a rest. He loves to sit around
the hotel and do nothing. In spite of this
feeling, 1 managed to put in couple OF
days sightseeing.
Among other interesting places, 1 went
to see two famous objects. of which near
ly every one has read-the Black Hoe OF
Calcutta and the Great Banyan Tree.
In 1856, Calcutta was captured by Suraj-
ad-Darla, the nawab of Bengal. He
caused 1l6 white prisoners to be put in
small pit or dungeon. This was only z
feet long IA feet wide and II feet high.
There was but small opening for air,
and of the lag human beings forced in
the hole on the night of June 20, 1756, only
% yere alive next morning. The place has
BEEN filled, but the location has been
carefully marked by an iron fence and
cement covering. Save these marks moth
ing remains of this horrible pit.
Yet as long as people study the history
of Calcutta and of England, they will
read with a shudder of the terrible suf-
fering of the unfortunate people who were
cruelty imprisoned in the small and stiff
ling Black Hole of Calcutta.
The Great Banyan Tree is in the Royal
Botanical gardens, across the river and
several miles from the heart of the city.
The gardens were founded IN 1916 and
contain 272 acres. There is a mile of river
fl ontage; there are Conservatives OF
orchids and many rare and beautiful
plants; there are avenues of almond trees
and mahogany trees and palm trees, the

How to Get Rid
of Catarrh
A Simple Safe, Reliable Way, and
it Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh know
it's miseries. There is no need of this
suffering. You can get rid of 1t by
simple, safe, inexpensive, home treat
ment discovered by DIR. Blosser, who
for over 80 years, has been treating
catarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other.
II is not a spray, douche, salve, cream,
or inhaler, but is more direct and
thorough treatment tnan any of these.
1t cleans out the head, nose, throat
and lungs so that you can again
breathe freely and sleep without that
stopped-up feeling that all catarrh
sufferers have. 1t heals the diseased
mucous membranes and arrests the
foul discharge, so that you will not
be constantly blowing Jour nose and
splitting, and at the same time il does
not poison the system and ruin the
stomach, as internal medicines do.
If you want to test this treatment
without cost, send your address TO
DIT J. w. Blosser, 81 Walton Street,
Atlanta. Ga. and he will send you
by return mail enough OF the medicine
TO satisfy you that il Is all he claims
for IL as a remedy for catarrh, catarrh-
al headach es. catarrhal deafness. asth-
ma, bronchitis, colds and all catarrhal
complications He viii also send you
free an illustrated booklet. Write him
immediately.

CALCUTTA, India.-Calcutta is the
capital city of India. Here Lord Mimic.
the present viceroy, has his winter resi-
dence, and here are the most brilliant So
cial and political gatherings to be found
in the empire.
Calcutta is also the largest city in In
dia, having more than a million inhabi-
tants; it has extensive commercial rela-
tions with the countries of the Orient.
and with many of the cities of the west
ern world. Ships come to the port in
large numbers, bringing in merchandise
and carrying away exports of opium,
jute, rice. indigo, oilseeds hides, salt
peter and silk.
Calcutta is so miles from the sea and
is situated on the banks of the Hooghly
river, which is one of the several mouths
of the Ganges. The river Is dangerous
to navigate, partly on account of the
cyclones and partly on account of the
changing channels. The Calcutta pilots
are important factors in the navigation
of the river, and they are said to be the

they have contributed more useful and

The Great Banyan Tree is a giant in the
vegetable kingdom The main trunk is
about 50 feet in circumference. From the
branches shoots run down to the ground
and grow in the soil, forming new roots.
There are over $50 aerial roots of this
kind some large and some small, some
near the trunk and some more than 100
feet away.
To walk among the many roots of this
one tree is like walking in forest. 1t re-
uuired three and a half minutes for me
to walk around the big tree the dis
lance being 1856 yards or more than one
fifth of a mile.
Under the shade of this tree would be
a fine place to hold camp meeting, ex-
cept that it would be difficult to find

But even in Calcutta, the Hindoos as a
class still hold to their rigid caste sys-

generally go bareheaded, and with base

And for pants-he makes his skindo."
Throughout India, and especially in Cal
cutta, many natives speak and write very
good English. Sometimes they make fancy
errors though / am sure they write bet
ter English than most of their critics
could write in the native language of Gal
cutta. Let me quote letter which WAS
written by Hindoo:
He was in love with a young lady and
wrote to her father, asking for her hand,
as follows:
my Dear Sir: 1t is with fiattering PEN
manship that / write to have commune
cation with you about the prospective
condition of your damsel offspring For
some remote time past, secret passion
has been firing my bosom internally with
love to your daughter. / have navigated
every channel in the magnitude of my

the growing love mot that is being
constructed in my within side. But the
humid lamp of affection still nourishes
my love-sickened heart. Hoping that you
will concordantly corroborate in espousins
your female projeny to my tender bosom
and thereby acquire me into your family
circle, 1 am, your dutiful son-in-law."
