TAFT CAN SAVE
T.. COMMERCE COURT
" - -"
Not Enough Votes to Repeal
Law Over Presidents
Veto

Washington. Nov. Ex-senator Bor-
nh of Idaho, yesterday confirmed the
announcement that there are enough
votes in the senate to repeal the
law creating the court Of COM
merce. "A sufficient number of sena-
tors arc prepared to vote for the re-
peal of the law" the senator said.
be taken to this end as soon as con-
gress meets"
1t is admitted by senators who are
OF. h opinion that the court should
be abolished, that while there is a
probable majority of five votes for the
purpose. there will not be q two-thirds
vote. which would be required should
the bill have to be passed over Presi-
dent Taft's veto.
Owing to the fact that it would be
necessary to do away with the posi-
tons and salaries of, clerks and other
employees attached to the court, a num-
Der. OF senators, especially from the
east, will fight the move to abolish
the court.
Soon after congress onvenes a bill
Will be introduced to abolish the court
and while some Of the senators will
fight for delay. there will be a majority
of votes in favor of the bill once it is
brought to. an issue on the floor Of the
senate. It Is understood that the
Democrats In the house will vote for
the bill. and 1t will then be sent to
President Taft for his approval.
Should the president veto the bill,
an effort will be made to pass 1t over
his veto, but it is not expected. that
there will be a sufficient number of
votes for this purpose in the senate.
Senators who are opposed to the
court argue that its. sole purpose is to
cause delay. Before its creation, it ID
argued that railroads accepted DEGREES
handed down by the interstate COM
merce commission and seemed perfect
received. Now, the senator's said,
nearly all cases are carried to the
court of commerce on general princi-
pies. in order to delay. any action of
an u~nfavorable character.

BANK WILL HAVE
TO STAND Loss
Final Ruling in Case of the
Destroyed Bank Notes
Has Been Made

Washington. Nov. a5.-The treasury
department has notified senator Nc
Cumber that his request that the Toll
ley National bank be relieved of the
loss of $500 in new bank notes. which
| were destroyed by a fire that consum-
med the express office at h a place.
cannot be complied with. While none
Of the bank notes have appeared in
circulation so far as treasury officials
are concerned, they must have atfirma-
tive evidence Of some kind that the
notes were actually destroyed and
cannot take the bare statement Of the
banks officers, the express agent. or
Senator McCumber.
If the liability of the express COM
pany is established in court, treasury
officials say they will take steps to
issue new currency to replace that
which was destroyed. Officers Of the
hank have been communicated with by
Senator McCumber. who will be un-
able to take any further steps in the
matter unless the liability Of the ex-
press company is judicially deter
mined.
While sympathizing with the officers
Of the Tolley bank. officials of the
treasury department declare that no
other course is open to them. This is
a striking illustration of the care
which is exercised by this department
in safeguarding the finances of the
country. While to sine it may seem
an extreme position TO take under the
circumstances. no will question its
soundness from Il strictly business
standpoint. The treasury department
Is primarily a business department.
