BRAzIL's vALoRIzATIoN PLAN.
Money Trust Investigation Develops
Interesting Facts.

Washington, May 16.-The first IL
lustration of the activities Of the po-
called Money Trust" given to the
house investigating committee to-
day, was testimony that three New
York banking institutions-the Ma
tional City bank, J. Pierpont Morgan
& Co., and the First National bank,
lent financial assistance to the gov
ernment Of Brazil to limit the output
Of coffee and MAINTAIN prices Of coffee
at a profitable figure for the benefit
of Brazilian planters and American
and European coffee dealers.
This testimony came from Herman
Sielcken, of the New York firm Of
Crossman & Sielcken, large dealers In
grain coffee Mr.. Sielcken attribut-
ed to the National City bank pa
triotic motive for it's investment. Mr..
Sielcken questioned the propriety or
the committee going into Brazirs af-
fairs, and as for his own participa-
tion, challenged the attorney general
of the United States and all the attor-
neys of the country to discover any IL
legality in his actions as a coffee mer-
chant.
The witness said that unless some
thing had been done to help the plant
ers of Brazil, there might have been
revolution. The price Of coffee had
grown so low through over-produc-
tion that the Brazilian government
exercises the right to encourage plan
rors to diversity their crops.
(which would have the the worse,
revolution in Sac Paulo, or for the
consumers of this country to pay
much more for all their coffee?" said
Samuel Untermeyer, counsel for the
committee.
You would have had to pay that
anyhow" said Mr.. Sielcken. He ar
gued that coffee would be still higher
If the valorization had not been put
into operation.
| Mr.. Untermeyer read from tables to
show the production Of coffee for sup
plies amounted to about six million
bags and that it sold at from 6 1-2 to
7 cents a pound. Now the production
was 14,OOO,O 900 bags and the price was
between 13 and IA cents pound.
This was accomplished by withhold
ing from the market the surplus sup
ply of coffee, he said.
| Mr.. Sielcken testified that there
were 4 1000, 900 bags of coffee now be-
ing held out of market by the valor-
ization committee of seven, of which
he Is member
Would not the price Of coffee go
down If this were put on the mar
ket? ?" asked Representative Byrnes.
mo, it would have no effect on the
market" said Mr.. Sielcken.
The big loan by which the valoriZa-
ton scheme was floated was $4,000,
600 pounds sterling. English. Ger
man, French and Belgian bankers
took 100000 of it through

THAT we should both have arrived
back in New York on the same day.
Never was there for me such mo-
ment of intense delight, Gram, dear,
as when I saw and recognized you,
at two o'clock this morning, saunter-
ing up the avenue. If I might only
arrest your attention, I thought. /
could not cry out. I was dumb with
Joy. But-how I did 1t shall never
KNOWN the briefest instant I had
snatched off my slipper and flung 1t
at you. I saw 1t strike you, saw you
stand still in amaze, and then. though
craned my neck near to breaking,
you were again out Of sight"
The revelation, eminently simple.
awoke, nevertheless, in the lovers
mind, a score of questions; not the
least pressing of which was how 1t
came that both BILLY the Duke" and
Miss williams could have learned Of
the incident under these circum-
stances.
"You won't mind telling me who
was in the car with you, will you?"
he asked, promptly.
I'm the car with me?" she repeat
ed, in evident surprise. "Why, no
one"
"Then how did 1t happen that the
fact that you threw the slipper was
known to at least two persons?"
The hand that he held all at once
grew tense. A startled look came in
to Edith's wonderful violet eyes. She
took a quick breath before she spoke.
"How-how do you know that?"
she almost gasped.
Because I have seen them. Be-
cause first one and then the other
claimed the slipper"
At his words the last vestige Of COL
or fed her face She leaned toward
him, tremblingly.
"But you didn't-tell me you didn't
give 1t up!"
"And why shouldn't II" he ques-
toned. "There was no way I could
know it was yours. A girl claimed it
over the telephone, the moment 1
reached my rooms"
The young woman sank beside him
in infinite despair. "And I depended
on you," she murmured, hopelessly.
"They were following in a taxicab. I
had no idea they would see. 1t Is
clear now why they gave up the
chase And T. felt all along that your
presence there at the moment was
providential."
His interest, already alert, still fur
ther quickened.
"You know of them? Both Of
them?"
"Oh, yes, yes. I met him on the
boat coming over. He was charming
to me. We all liked him immensely.
1t was terribly indiscreet. I see 1t
now, but he seemed to read my anx-
iety, and confessed I had it-that 1t
was hidden in the heel Of my slipper.
After that he rarely left me. He said
he would be my big brother. I might
need him when 1t came to getting by
the customs men, who had a way OF
knowing about such"
+ Van Braun interrupted her: You
were trying to evade paying duty?"
mo, no. Don't you seo? And yet
how can you? 1t was a gift we'd
ding gift from Aunt Jeanne to Sallie
Minturn; the Vaurigard red diamond.
She didn't want Sallie to wait until
she got to France to see 1t, although
she is going over right after the we'd
ding, and is to make her home there.
So volunteered at the last minute to
bring it over just for Sallie to look at

was then returned to Col. Green, who
undertook to correct same by insert
ing from memory, the dates when
these expenses were incurred. When
these dates were inserted, payment
was still refused for the reason that
the salary claimed for one months
service was unauthorized by law.
These prior statements appear to
be inconsistent with the final state
ment filed May 13, covering all these
matters. But as the statement of May
13 is correct in form, the comptroller
general has felt 1t his duty to issue his
warrant on the state treasurer for
payment Of same, it having received
the approval Of the governor, who is
responsible to the people for the con-
tracts authorized by him."

''The invasion OF Sugar City" was
the way the contestants in the New

Saturday, when almost a dozen OF
them carried their vote getting cam
patgn to our prosperous neighboring
town.
L. z. Jotiusun aud Oscar Lindholm
were employed to take the ladies and
girls on the trip, and whether II was
because OF rivalry OF the two drivers,
or to add little excitement to the
run, that they came near breaking
the speed record Is not known.
On arriving at Sugar City the New
Era crowd first took drive over the
town, visiting the mammoth sugar
plant and other points OF interest, all
OF which they greatly enjoyed.
The National hotel was made head.
quarters aud the candidates got busy
soliciting subscriptions. All the busi-
uess houses we're canvassed and the
candidates we're not disappointed as
the result OF their days work.
The dinner ut the National was an
enjoyable feature OF the trip. Miss
Bingham undoubtedly knows how to
serve Il good dinner and the Ordway
visitors showed their approval "f II

Poor Boosting

An address delivered by G. A.
Kearns, agrlculturist for the National
Sugar Manufacturing company, at
their last meeting Is worth reproduc.
ing here. 1t Is as follows:
"Mr. President and gentlemen: The
few words l will say to you tonight
are along the line OF boosting and not
sugar beets as you no doubt would ex-
pect me to talk. There are two kinds
OF boosting. viz: The simon.pure kind
and the fictitious kind. The latter
kind has done more harm in the past
than II has ever done good. Be care.
ful to always state the facts. The
word boost should mean something
substantial and progressive to the
stranger within our gates. Never tell
the stranger from the east that this
white substance they see on the
ground Is sugar, for he will find out
different. Do not convey the idea
that there are confidence men In bust
ness. Here ia the reason: We are
trying to get people to have confidence
In the country and town. Fictitious
boosting will have u bad effect On
most strangers. There IL nothing
mean or slow about Ordway, and the
stranger who comes here will receive
II royal welcome. Boost along the
true matter Of fact way and In such a
way as to be non.cOmmittal aud when
in doubt tell the truth. Our town
and country has resources and ad.
vantages that need not be exaggerated.
To this end all should labor, and
II few suggestions here given are
put into practical use, the future will
be elevated and the citizens Of this
little city placed upon higher plane
and we will all realize the great op-
portunities that may be found In own.
ing home or farm In this Ordway
country and that we are at least equal
II not superior to any part Of the Ar.
kansas valley. Gentlemen, l feel
proud tonight that we have such
man as we have, as president Of this
club. He has largeness OF soul AS
we'll as body, u kindly shrewdness, a
proud humility, u certain suggestion
OF noble simplicity about him, and
when he speaks he makes one Look
states straight In the face, and say,
as Burns OF old. "A mans man, for a
