lar demand throughout the country for

by them on June O. and whether it would
be agreeable to make the exchange pro-
posed. Silver certificates over the denonlina-

BANK BILL CAUCUS ON SNAC
House Members Undecided About Dis
posal of Deposits.
BIB FLOOD OF AMENDMENTS
Men from Various Sections of Country
Seek to Increase Limit OF
Deposits In Local Bank-
ing Houses.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-The republican
house caucus on the postal savings bank

1t reached section of the Gardner bill,
having to do with the disposition of depos-
its of savings banks. Reaching no dispo-
sition on this feature, the caucus, after
three hours elaboration, adjourned until
tomorrow night.
The Gardner bill, on which the caucus
was working, would permit 17h per cent
of the deposits to be withdrawn by the
board of trustees and invested in govern
ment bonds or other securities; per cent
additional to be used as a reserve and re-
qures the remaining 47h per cent to be
kept in the city where the postal deposits
were received.
When this section was reached tonight
there was a flood of amendments by men,
bers, representing various sections of the
country, but all seeking to increase the
amount of deposits, which, under the law,
would remain in the local banks. Repre-
sentative Vreeland of New York offered
one amendment increasing to 72la per cent
the amount which should remain in the
local banks. Various other amendments
proposed the retention in local banks from
So to 70 per cent Of the deposits.
Vreeland Urges Amendment.
Mr.. Vreeland spoke at length on his
amendment and the indications were thai
the discussion on this phase of the bill
would continue several hours. Mr.. Gardner
vigorously defended the bill as reported.
Practically there was no change In the
bill until the ninth section. Representative
