CAP TAIN STUART.
WEDS MISS STORY
Church Grants Couple Spe-
cial Marriage Dispen-
Sation in Rome.

ROME, Jan. IS.-Through a special
dispensation from the church, made
necessary by the difference in the relig-
ions of the contracting parties, Miss
Gwendolyn Story. one of the most popu-
lar members OF the American colony in
Rome, today became the bride OF Cap
tain Stuart, the military attache of the
British embassy in this city. The bride
is a Roman Catholic and the bride
groom a Protestant
The wedding is the elimination of a
romantic courtship. 1t was only last
summer that the young persons first
met. Captain Stuart fell in love at
first sight, so his friends declare, and
never rested until he won Miss Story's
consent.
Though born in Rome and a resident
here most of the time, the bride of to-
day is a thorough American. She comes
of most distinguished lineage. She is a
great-granddauGhter of Justice Joseph
Story of the Supreme Court of the
United States, a granddaughter of w.
w. Story, poet and sculptor, and d
daughter of Waldo Story, the sculptor.

SOME RECENT EFFORTS TO
LOCATE THE PIT.

The location of Sheol, TOphet,
Observation-Disclosures term may be
chosen by connoisseurs in the retri-
button yet to come-has ranged all the
way from a state of mind to the
State of Kansas. Leading Washing
ton polcmics have narrowed it to an
issue between the sun and the moon.
The protagonist of the moon brings
to bear the esoteric learning of India,
and talks of gibbering spirits that
haunt the cold wastes of a dead world.
The champion of the sun theory ap-
peals to the solar fame and heat, visi-
BILE and palpable. Partisans of the re-
frigeration concept have the support
of what undoubtedly must have been
the feelings of the swarthy Henson,
squiring Don Robert to the Pole. The
solar hellists bark back to Meme, the
Eskimo, and his expressed opinions
of the inhospitable latitude farther
south. An unprejudiced observer will
possibly locate it in or near the scene
of the approaching Democratic caucus
in that agonizing hour after the stars
and garters have been distributed and
it is discovered that there are not

the reorganized savings banks, plus
the big national institutions already
existent, would the more easily main
tain control of the new institution in
the hands of what is broadly denomi-
mated the money power"
There are many strong arguments
for a central bank in this country, and
we incline to- favor the establishment
of one. But we doubt gravely whether
it is worth while to try to palm one
off on the country, with powers that
the country might not be willing to
grant, under the pretense that no bank
at all is being established.
The Washington times., 1911-01-18
Senator A1drich's Bank of Issue Plan.

1t would have been more candid if
Senator Aldrich had put forth his
monetary reform plan under the name
of the Central Bank of America, instead
of Reserve Association of America.
! lie Senator proposes a central bank
plan of which he need not be ashamed.
He has fitted it rather cleverly into
the present banking system of the ma
tion. with the design of effecting a
revolution with the least possible dis
turbance. He has indicated the
prophesies of people who, when the
AIdrich Emergency Currency act pass
ed, predicted that it would prove a
prelude to a central bank plan.
The good results which they (the
government banks of Europe) obtain
can. | believe, be reached without the
creation of such a central bank" sug
gests Senator Aldrich. This leaves
the impression that he does not have
central bank in mind. But nobody
can read his plan in detail without
realizing that it is central bank of
issue that he proposes. 1t is to be
the depository and fiscal agent of the
National Government. 1t is to have
the sole issue power. 1t may receive
deposits from those national banks
which are stockholders in it. 1t
shall establish branch banks. 1t may
buy and sell Government and State
securities, and foreign government
securities, and gold coin or bullion. 1t
may rediscount paper for banks de-
posting with it. 1t may buy ac-
ceptances of substantial houses-and
no bank wants any other kind.
In short, the Aldrich Reserve As.
sociation is to be a bank, with i'm.
mense privileges and powers, but
without the name of bank. Doubtless
the Senator suppressed the words
Central Bank" because he is aware
that certain prejudice exists against
the central bank in this country. But
he will misIead few, and the net effect
is likely to be merely the creation OF
an impression that he fears to deal
quite candidly with the community
We suspect that, as in some past
times. the Senator would further his
cause by avoiding effort at such rather
The Washington times., 1911-01-18

fimsy misrepresentation. An upward
revision is not a downward revision
merely because you call it such. A
central bank is none the less such be-
cause you name it a reserve associa-
ton.
The Aldrich plan is of course merely
tentative. 1t will not be enacted into
law for a long time-probably very
long time indeed. There are many
obviously Objectionable features about
it. Thus, while presuming to establish
a central bank owned and controlled
by the national banks of the country,
it is so formed as to invite the small
national banks to stay out, and the
big ones to come in as stockholders.
Provisions are detailed, for selec-
tion of a managing board which at
first glance appears very democratic
and representative; but a glance be-
hind the scenes, a consideration of the
personnel of the executive committee
which will do the real managing, con-
vinces one that in the last analysis
very concentrated control will be easily
possible, and is indeed contemplated
a control likely to give the great,
closely held banking interests of the
country domination.
We fail to find provision for the
new bank retiring the greenbacks
outstanding, though it does provide for
the retirement of national bank notes
and the gradual Capitalization of the
issue power in the new institution. 1t
would seem that, if the new bank is
to secure this immensely valuable
franchise, it ought at the same time
to become the custodian of our gold
reserve and to provide a method of
substituting its own notes for the
present greenbacks.
The provision for establishing new
classes of national banks, with the
functions now exercised by savings
banks, seems tantamount to inviting
the great savings banks to become ma
tional banks and then come in as joint
controllers of the new central insti-
tuition. 1t is not difficult to suspect
that, with the small banks disposed
to remain out of the new organization,

GOV. WILSON OUTLINES HIS
FUTURE POLICY.

The sanity and simplicity which
marked the Inauguration of DIR. Wood
row Wilson as governor of New Jer-
sey on yesterday cannot fail to con.
firm the favorable impression which
his venture into active political life
has already created. The reforms he
advocated in his inaugural address are
wholesome and clean-cut. They are
progressive and at the same time are
such as have been approved by ex-
perience. There was a special fitness
in the fact that from the State where
the Trust has found its safest refuoe
and most friendly laws should come
the emphatic message that the time
has come for greater scrutiny, not
only of the corporations which are to
be formed hereafter, but of those
which are already in business, in or
der that security issues in future NAV
represent more definite values. Again
Governor Wilson places himself in line
with the best thought of. the day
when he urges that the archaic reIa-
tion of master and servant be SUD.
planted by those automatic measures
of workmen's compensation by which
the death or injury of employees shall
be paid for by the employer without
resort to the tedious and costly
processes of the courts. The perfec.
ton and extension of the primary
laws to all elective offices and party
nominations and the strengthening of
the corrupt practices act are among
the other reforms suggested in his in
augural address.
1t is apparent that Governor Will
son is alert to the opportunities which
await him in the high office to which
he has been called, and that he is GO
ing into the fight for civic and political
righteousness with lance that knows

Premier's Wife, in Court,
Says Extravaganza Is a
Society Virtue.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1s.-Today in Lon
don verdict was expected in the SLAM
der suit brought against Sir AIgernon
West by bis daughter-in-law. The
charge has been made that ne told a
number of people the cause of his sons
separation from his wife was due to her
extravaganza.
This. so the plaintiff claims, hurt her
social standing, but Mrs. Asquith, the
Liberal premier's wife, who was on the
stand yesterday, testified that .'extrava-
ganCe would be the best passport to So
Ciety." Mrs. Asquith, who was Dorothy
Tenrant, woman OF the serpent's tongue,
according to the Poet Watson, amused
those present with her caustiC testi-
mo1y, which today is the subject of
much comment.
Sir Algernon West, the defendant, was

was formerly an official of the highest

THE DISTRICTS TRIBUTE TO
MR.. GARDNER.

Under the form of administration
by which an aggregation of national
lawmakers has to act as a city council
for the orphaned Capital of the Re-
public, the duties which devolve upon
the chairman of the subcommittee on
the District of Columbia of the
House Committee on Appropriations
are burdensome and exacting, when
conscientiously discharged. As Com
missioner Rudolph has indicated,
efficient work on this committee finds
but little recognition in the broader
fields of political life and has to be,
in large measure, its own virtuous re-
ward. 1t is therefore a timely and
graceful suggestion on the part OF the
District Commissioners, speaking
through Chairman Rudolph, that
dinner be rendered to Representative
Washington Gardner, who retires from
the committee and from the House at
the end of the present session. 1t is
one of those little tributes of apprecia-
ton which tine District is always glad
to pay when it gets anything like the
attention il deserves, and it is fore
gone conclusion that the occasion will
be a happy one.
The Washington times., 1911-01-18
CONGRESS HAS CHANCE TO
MAKE GOOD.

Members of Congress have INDUCED
in a great deal of conversation within
the last year on the subject of con-
servation of natural resources. Both
parties are officially on record in favor
of it, and the individual leaders of each
organization have devoted hours of
time and thousands of words to de-
claring their belief in it.
As result, it has become an &C
cepted doctrine throughout the coun-
try that we must take advantage of
every opportunity to develop econ
omically the great values supplied by
nature and represented by our forests,
streams, minerals, and water power,
and that we must so regulate their use
that the greatest possible benefit may
be conserved for future generations.
The POTOMAC power project gives
Congress a chance to make good on the
protestations of its members. Con-
gress has the opportunity to demon
strate that conservation means some
thing besides talk, that it is actually a
movement for the good of humanity,
present and prospective.
The District Commissioners have
asked for $4,000 for a complete sur
vey of the Potomac above the District,
and for the compilation of a plan by
which the power now going to waste
in the river can be converted into
electricity for lighting the streets,
buildings, and parks of Washington.
They base their request on the re-
port of the Geological Survey, which has
discovered what they declare to be a
practical method of utilizing the
power.
Congress could not ask a better op-
portunity to put into actual practice
the theories of conservation which

Daughter of Composer
Welded to Hans Hudson

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-Grace Church,

large and fashionable wedding today,
when Miss Ethel lie Roy de KOver,
daughter Of Reginald de KOven, the
well-knOwn composer. and Mrs. lie
Koven, became the bride of Hans Kier-

Well-known young society persons of
Chicago, Philadelphia, and this city
