TAFT WANTS HOUSE
Savings BANK BILL
Senate Agrees to Vote on Con-
currence After Rejecting
Numerous Amendments
Presidents Message Makes the
Leaders Keep Measure In
tact by Small Majority

WASHINGTON, June 21.-Agreeing
TO vote at O'Clock tomorrow on the
Carter motion TO concur in the house
postal savings bank bin the senate ad-
Journed at 6 o'clock tonight, after a
day devoted largely to an onslaught
upon the house measure.
A number of amendments were Of
fered, but the "old guard" of the regu-
lars was on duty and each assault was
successfully resisted. the majority
ranging from six TO eight votes.
Word was circulated early in the ses-
sion that the president desired the
house bin, and the message undoubted-
ly had an influence in maintaining the
measure intact.
All amendments We're directed to the
section Of the house. bill relating to the
deposit and withdrawal of the postal
bank funds by the government The
general contention was that the house
bill contemplated the withdrawal of
the funds from the local banks for
transference to the large eastern banks
and the national treasury, while it was
urged that the senate bill would hold
the money at the home banks, except
i'm case Of war or other contingency
The first OF the amendments disposed
OF was that offered by Bacon to strike
out the provision authorizing the use
OF postal bank deposits for the pur-
hcsse Of bonds. Bacon declared that
the provision was the entering wedge
in the interest of great central bank.
lie said that the financiers of Wall
street could have written nothing more
10 their liking.
The amendment was voted down by
a majority OF six, was the next
amendment, which was offered by Cum
Minis. which required that depositaries
should be selected in accordance with
a general rule.
The suggestion that received most at
tention requires indemnity bonds from
postal savings depositaries. This is
the provision in the senate bill. while
the house requires the deposit of bonds
as security. The senate amendment
was favored by Cummins and Bristow
and opposed by Burton and Carter.
Bristow declared that the house pro-
vision would preclude the possibility of
country banks becoming depositaries as
il would require them to prefer one
depositor over others, which the state
law would not permit. Instead of being
"a source of strength in the next cam
paign. il would be a cause of weakness
10 the republican party. he said. The
vote against the amendment stood 81
TO 81.
A similar fate met an Amendment by
Cummins. restoring the senate provision
authorizing the withdrawal Of the de-
posits from the local banks only in
case Of war or other eXigency.

 There may have been some people who have had a better time in New York than the delegation of young Alabama girls who came up as the guests of the Ocean Steamship company to help christen the City of Montgomery. They were Miss Helen c. Steiner, Miss Mary Cobbs, Miss Julia May Henderson and Miss Netta Jones of Montgomery. In the private car of Col Alex R. Lawton, vice president of the Central of Georgia railroad, they came, accompanied by the father of Miss Steiner, Maj. E. R. Steiner William H. Pleasants, Jr., vice president and general manager of the Savannah line, placed at their disposal the tug John Nichols, com- manded by Capt.

Biz Logs for China.

When she left Linnton, Ore. for
China the steamer NJ. S. Dollar had
on board one Of the most singular
cargoes of lumber that has ever left
the port. Her deck load is composed
Of huge unsawed logs which are des-
tined to go into a Chinese temple.
There are about twenty-five of these
logs and they range in length from
los to 1O6 feet. They average about
forty-three inches at the butt and
each weighs in the neighborhood of
IS tons. They will be discharged
somewhere along the river between
Shanghai and Hankow, after which
they will have to be taken long
distance into the interior of the coun-
try. where they will be used in max
ing repairs to a Buddhist temple
which is many centuries old.
The work of transferring them from
the coast TO their destination will be
an enormous task as for most of the
way they will have 10 be transported
by the most primitive methods and
II will be the work of months to get
them to their destination.
