MONEY TRUSTPROBE
TO BEGIN TO-DAY

Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the
Money Trust Committee, arrived In the
city last night, and after long con-
ference with Chairman Pujo. 1t was
made known that in the future there
will be no statements made in regard
to the committees work, and that the
lid would be clamped down so tight
that not even the names Of witnesses
will be announced in advance
The hearings will be resumed at IL
o'clock this morning. The first wit
nesses probably will be some OF the
governing officers OF the Pittsburg Stock
Exchange. Cornelius Pugley, former
president OF the New York State Banks
Association, also will be a witness.
Jacob II. Schiff probably will appear
early in the week, and most Of the other
big bankers in New York. including J.
P. Morgan, are scheduled to testify be-
fore the committee.
To-day's hearing will be the first that
the committee has held since early in
the fall. In those early meetings the
investigators inquired chiefly into the
business of the New York Clearing
House. The line OF inquiry TO be follow
ed now will deal chiefly with alleged
abuses of the New York and other stock
exchanges, and Of the New York Clear
ing House. The officers and many of
the governors of the New York Stock
Exchange will be examined.

TRIAL MAY TIE UP
SENATE'S BUSINESS

Changes from present method of prose-
cutting judges accused of misbehavior in
office is earnestly urged by Representa-
tive and SenatOr-elect George w. Nor
ris Of Nebraska. Judge Norris calls at
tention to the fact that the business of
the Senate is likely TO be tied up until
March 4 by the Archibald trial One hun
dred and forty witnesses are still to be
heard in the Archibald Impeachment case
4 am not arguing that this trial OF
Judge Archibald will advance the use
throughout the country OF recall for
judges" said Judge Norris yesterday,
but l hold that tying up OF the govern
ment's business to try the case that in
wolves only the removal from office OF an
individual points the necessity OF some
change in existing methods.
In the present case, the House Com
mittee on Judiciary by reason OF the fact
that its members are prosecuting the case
against Judge Archibald are unable to
take up the legislation that is before Con-
gress. We have bills changing existing
Federal statutes that are of Importance
TO the country at large. We cannot take
these matters under consideration until
we shall have finished with the Archibald
case.
THE Senate is in a worse fix than
the House. It is only one committee OF
the House that is tied up by these i'm
peachment proceedings. The entire SEN
ate is tied up because the Senate sits as
a Judge. jury, &c. The committees OF
the Senate are forced to remain inactive
while the Senate hears the evidence.
This extends also TO the President,
because legislation that would otherwise
be passed by the House and Senate
would have gone to the President to be
acted on by the Chief Executive. With
the Impeachment trial on in the Senate,
no legislation can pass, and the Execu-
tive Department is tied up, so far as
disposal OF legislation is concerned

speaking for the administration, will be

the President, Mr. Herrick made an in
quiry into tho credit agricultural plans
in operation in Europe. The subject was
discussed at a White House conference
Yesterday, in which the President and
seven or eight Governors of States par
ticipated.
In presenting the question to the House

somewhat after the French system. 1t

PUBLIC PRINTER
MAKES HIS REPORT
Government Printing Official Shows
that Economy Has Been
Practiced.

Samuel B. Donnelly, Public Printer.
yesterday made public. his annual report
to Congress on the work of the Govern
IIent Printing ONCE, showing that the
charges" representing what would be
receipts In private printing Offices, ex-
ceeded the expenditures for maintenance,
operation. and general expenses in the
fiscal year 1g1I-I9l2 by S52l, ,2j7Sl, the
Charges being IS, nc 1878, and the total
expenditures being S6.254,9G7.S7.
The total charges for the last fiscal
year exceeded the charges in the preced-
ing year by s4sS, 4O2.H. At the same time,
the Public Printer reports, THE in
creased per capita production during the
fiscal year made possible a reduction of
approximately per cent in the scale of
charges. This reduction was made and
the reduced scale will apply to work pro-
duced during the fiscal year 1913
THE reductions made in the scale will
result in a reduction in charges to Con-
gress and tho departments of approxi-
mately $4,000 during the present fiscal
year"
Mr.. Donnelly made several recon-
mendations of changes in legislation
which he believes are needed for the
sake Of economy and efficiency.
One Of these is that tha printing Of
public documents be limited. He de-
clares that free distribution should not
be made unless specifically provided for
by Congress. On this subject he says:
''The edition OF 70 per cent OF the docu-
ments and reports printed can be re-
duced without interfering with the work
of the House and their members or de-
priving the public OF information. and
the elimination of irrelevant matter will
result in decreasing the cost OF print
ing hearings.
my four years of experience in the
printing OF public documents leads me
to recommend that minimum and and
maximum number of editions be fixed by
law and that the power Of fixing the
edition within these limits be conferred
upon one Official
