 The excursion train did not stop today at the Fifth Avenue station, but continued down Co the dock, where Che Jefferson whisued herself hoarse. trying to hurry things along. Skagway must have been greatly ap- p-eciated in that slide for life.
 Those who denied themselves the pleasure of the trip to the summit, thoroughly enjoyed themselves about town during the few brief hours the beat was here. Many of them eX- pressed regret that the trip was so hurried. The Jefferson was several hours late on her schedule.

TUESDAY, MARCH %, 1911.

The $5O,0O0,OOO bonds about to be
issued to pay for building the Panama
canal can not be used as basis of
circulation by the national banks. The
privilege of being so used has been
carried by all the government bonds
heretofore issued, and the leaving it
out in this instance is believed to be
part of plan to take away from ma
tional banks the circulation privilege
and confer. it on a central bank to be
established at Washington City. The
basis of circulation then would not be
bonds, but the assets of the central
bank. This plan of radical change
in the financial system has not been
discussed before the people; on the
contrary, 1t is kept as quiet as posi-
BILE, because of the manifest advantage
it gives the financial interests in con
trolling the volume of circulation.
