ness Men Thanks Him for
Making Scheme Public.
SECRETARY MAC VEAGH DOES
NOT WANT TO WAIT LONGER
He Says Reform Should Be
Made at Once, and That 1t
Will Benefit Everyone.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-General
Endorsement of the principal features
Of the Aldrich plan of financial revi-
sion and high praise for submitting it
to the public as basis, were conspicu-
ous In the numerous addresses today
of the Business Men s Monetary con,
ference held under the auspices Of the
convention of the National Board Of
Trade.
Secretary MacVeagh, speaking at the
banquet of the conference tonight. de-
clared that "there is not man, WON
an or child in the whole nation, rich
or poor, who is not involved in the
question of whether we shall have Il
proper. adequate and safe monetary
system.
He outlined the defects in the pres.
ent monetary system and referred to
the Aldrich plan, characterizing it and
the final report of the commission yet
to come as worthy Of "friendly and
cordial consideration of whatever they
may either tentatively or finally pro.
pose.
"We do not know" said Secretary
Mac Veagh. Hwhat the final report will
be, though its general features are prob
ably foretold in the very elaborate and
interesting suggestions made public yes
terday by the commission g distin-
guished chairman.
Secretary MacVeagh deplored the
various acknowledgements of the fault
Of the present money conditions, but
said the country was net in condition
to await reform.
"But why should we wait?' he
asked. HWhy should we, for instance,
hold on to panic7 Why should we
cultivate or breed panics2 Why should
not we revolt at their barbarities, their
cruelties and their havocs?'
Secretary MacVeagh laid particular
stress upon the inadequacy and lack of
systematizatlon of the money reserve
Of the country.
effective, '''rh he continued, without
some form of Capitalization, The au-
thority over these reserves or a suffi-
cient part of them must reside IN cen
tralized form.
"We have about $4,000 banking
units, each community carrying on its
business as nearly independently as
possible, and certainly with independ-
ent Judgment and independent selfish
ness when the stress comes. What we
need is the general organization of our
banking system, and that organization
cannot be brought about without some
recognized central authority
Representative Vreeland Of New
York, vice chairman of the monetary
commission. gave his views Of the Aid
rich plan at the afternoon session.
He said he was in sympathy with the
principal features of the Aldrich re-
port. He questioned the advisability
of omitting the state banks and char
tered trust companies from participa
tion in the Reserve Association of
America, suggested by Senator Aldrich
and declared in favor of having them
own stock in the association on an even
footing with national banks.

that congress provide additional funds for
continuing the work OF raising the battle
ship Maine in Havana harbor, Secretary
of War Dickinson has written letter TO
Senator Hale, chairman OF the senate APP
preparations committee, calling attention
10 the fact that the appropriation Of

be prosecuted from now on until con-
gress conyenes next December under the
indefinite act of March S, 1899. which
authorizes the removal of wrecks that
form distractions to navigation. The
use of this appropriation can be ac-
compllshed by extending the provisions
Of the act to the harbor OF Havana.
The secretary also invites congress to
indicate what shall be done with the
wreck when raised. excepting the MAIN
mast. which the legislative body has said
shall be placed in Arlington cemetery.
Numerous requests have been received by
the secretary of war for the second mast
and other parts OF the ship.
The government OF Cuba has asked for
the second mast, with the intention of
erecting II on site In Havana as
monument to her liberty.

outlook in the senate. Under no cir
cunstances is any plan favored which
