TO PRESS PLAN FOR CURRENCY
REFORM

Plans for the reform of the currency
will be prosecuted with vigor by mem
bers of the National Monetary Com
mission this summer. A campaign of
a bill which probably will be intro
duced in both branches of congress in
December.
Thus far the work Of the committee
has not been regarded as political and
special care will be taken to avoid the
introduction of partisan views in the
campaign. A majority of the mem
bers who have been working on pro-
posed legislation are not now members
of congress and most of them are re
garded as out of politics. This is par
ticularly true of the chairman, former
Senator Aldrich, of Rhode Island, who
is expected to devote much time to
the work in the coming year.
Beginning with the hearing to be
granted the currency commission of
the American Bankers Association,
March 22d, the commission members
will be actively engaged in obtaining
the views of the public. 1t is not con-
templated that there shall be many
hearings in Washington, but that sew
eral members of the committee shall
visit the large cities to ascertain the
views Of the public. The most extern
sive tour will be made by Aldrich, the
author of the bill, which is expected to
form the basis of any legislation at
tempted. With one or two other mem
bers he probably will visit the south
and west.
General approval seems to have been
given to the Aldrich bill by the pub
lie. Bankers seem to regard it as in
the nature of a legalization of the
clearing house methods employed in
time Of panic. These methods, for the
most part, have proved efficacious.
Members of the commission are by
no means committed to the Aldrich
bill. 1t was brought out by Aldrich
chiefly to give the country something
tangible to work on. The views of
bankers are being sought, and, until
they are received, it is not likely that
individual members of the commission
will put themselves on record. Many
useful suggestions are expected from
the currency committee of the Ameri-
can Bankers Association, and through
the ideas thus advanced the commits
sion expects to avoid many vicissitudes
which the proposed legislation other
wise would encounter in congress.

A Queer Freak.

Milreau, who was said to have been
connected with some of the best fami-
lies in France and to have possessed
considerable means until ruined by the
Panama canal disaster, was one of the
best friends the beggars of Paris ever
had, and to obtain funds for helping
them he became systematic thief He
used to frequent the fashionable streets
uuring the day and pick pockets, and
by night, dressed in ragged clothes, he
dispensed the spoils to the first beg
gars he met. For years he continued
the practice without being suspected
and It was by pure chance that he
eventually did fall into the hands OF
the police When his lodgings were
searched sufficiently empty purses wert
found to fill a large packing case. ant
1t was made clear that he had stoleI
hundreds of watches and scarfpins

irving to live a respectable man on {

Wrecks and Cats and DOGS.

There is an odd provision in the
English law on wrecks. 1t used to
be that wrecks, like pretty nearly ev-
erything else, belonged to the king.
Sometimes, if vessel were only part
ly wrecked and it could he raised, an
owner was averse to surrendering it,
but it was generally seized for the king
in accordance with the law until the
question came up as to just what was
a wreck. 1t was generally admitted
that when all hands were lost that
was wreck, but as they wanted to
get as narrow definition as they
could they got parliament to establish
law that in future nothing shall
be considered wreck out of which a
cat or u dog escapes alive. and from
that time until the present day no
vessel coasts about England without
carrying a cat or dog.

Canvas Currency.

Banknotes appear in much the same
form throughout the world and have
always done SO except in China, where
the earliest note was made of canvas,
some six centuries before the Christian
era. Il was more like tablecloth
than baulunte, its length being
about two meters, or six feet six inch
es. This form Of note was not very
convenient when large sums were con
cerned. so later the note was printed
on parchment md all other forms of
money were suppressed. One emperor
issued notes representing more than
three thousand millions. But the mon
ey was never popular. and gradually
the notes were retired.
