the extra interest it will be called
upon to pay as a result of exchanging
the % for IS.
One effect of The exchange will be
to enable the government to provide
permanently for a large portion of
the interest-bearing public debt at a
net interest charge of 10 per cent.
This arrangement proposes a solution
of what many financiers declared the
greatest obstacle to the plan 1t dis
poses permanently of the bond-secured
currency without loss to the govern
ment, and without imposing upon the
Reserve Association the ownership of
the $73O,OOO,OOO per cent bonds.
The association will agree to hold
the per cents for so years, but the
secretary of treasury, after five years
will have the option of permitting the
association to sell the securities at
a rate not greater than S5O,000,o0O a
year. The government may reserve
the right to redeem any Of the bonds
before maturity, to buy any Of them
at par for the trustees Of the postal
savings system, or otherwise.
Election of Directors.
Provisions for the election of dt
rectors have been changed in the re
vised plan, with the idea Of minimiz
ing the possibility Of control by any
section or group. There will still be
40 directors, as in the original plan
six members eX-officio, viz: The gov
ernor of the association, his two dep
uties. the Secretary of the Treasury
the Secretary of Commerce and La
Dor and the Comptroller of the Cur
rency.
Each of the 10 financial districts o
the country will elect one director
twelve others will be elected by the
shareholders, and these y will cleo
to the board II additional members
who shall not be officers of banks, bu
may be directors in them, and VIII
shall fairly represent the industrial
agricultural, commercial and other il
terests of the country.
The completed plan provides tina

not more than three may be electe
from any one district AS an il

would be to limit the State Of Ne1

LONDON, Oct 1.-THE danger of
wild Nigeria to venturesome English
men have been grimy illustrated by
the murder of H. p James, a British
resident commissioner, only twenty
nine years Of age, and by the failure
of a British punitive expedition sent
to avenge his death.
A cable message from Lagos states
that the avengers have returned hope
less of catching the murderous tribe.
They captured only one man implicat-
ed in the murder, but he cheated JUS
tice by dying of pneumonia.
Bodies Found in the Bush.
In the bush the punitive expedition
found the body of Mr.. James and also
the remains of three of his native
companions. Happily, none of the
bodies had been mutilated, and the
commissioner himself must have been
killed instantaneously, as the base of
the skull had been shot away. An
other bullet had also gone through the
thigh.
Mr.. James, who was visiting the
southern border of the Forcades dis
trict, left Forcados in a steel canoe
-towed by a steam launch, accompa-
MED by four policemen and twenty
beach boys On arrival at a town
called Kuno, on the waterside, Mr.
James asked the head man to accom-,
pany him to the next town, Adagba
biri. The head man, without giving
any reason, refused.
Accordingly, in the afternoon Mr.
James, with six boys and two police
men, started off in a canoe, followed
in another boat by two native chiefs
The interpreter, who barely escaped
with his life, reports that he saw the
head man who had refused to accom-
pany the commissioner going ahead oil
the party in another canoe In few
minutes the canoes came alongside
Adagbabiri, and number of armed
natives were seen to come out from
behind their houses.
Fire Without Warning.

PHILADELPHIA Oct. 19.-Lady
Cook, with all her advanced theories
on crime prevention and the rights Of
women, is with us for the first time in
several years, and for the second time
since she became the leading figure in
the early days of the suffragist cause
in England.
She has come to deliver lecture.
For the lack of something more com
prehensive, the scheduled lecture has
been called THE Need of Revising
Morals and Laws but it was readily
noticed yesterday, when she held forth
at enthusiastic length in her rooms ia
the Hotel Walton before her audience
of reporters, that she conceded be-
fore starting that there was need of
reform. She has come with remedies
for our degenerate morals. She has
a thousand and one moral panaceas,
and intends to administer them, she
said, if she has to crack us on the
head in order to open our mouths.
First of ALL she contends that our
method of living, insofar as the rela.
ton of the sexes is concerned, is all
wrong, We are lethargic participants
in a continuous saturnalia of social
immortality Lady Cook declares that
we all acknowledge when pinned
down by unhoneyed facts, that our
scheme Of social things is all awry
But, she says, we are too hidebound
and cross-brained to realize that our
salvation is at hand. She would ex,
pound the receipt for our emancipa.
ton, and let us then work out our own
salvation.
She claims that while man is a COW
ardly liar, woman is even more dan
gerous. The man, according to Lady
Cook, will take refuge behind the wo
man who has been a party to his sin
but the woman will pave the way for
this act of cowardice by rearing hel
son in ignorance of the great truths
of sex and permitting him to learr
these truths in the street.
Lady Cook was the beautiful Ten
nessee Clafin, who, with her equally
enhancing sister, Victoria, figured or
the first page of the newspapers al
most every day in the early 7O's. She
was a preceptress in the militant stuff
ragistic school before our present day
leaders of the cause of woman suffrage
knew which was the wiser-to procure
husband or enter upon a career.
'Tenny" Claflin is a beauty still. {

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 19.-The care

Charities, with a subject for an inter-
esting and instructive lecture of the
course of addresses on food products

Doctor Neff spoke yesterday after
noon and after touching on conditions

dangers imminent after the supply has

ply of milk brought into this city from

been taken into the house. You must
get busy and keep it clean and cold
as it has been brought TO you"

emanating from bacteria was followed
