HE CAN'T BARBER C0RNS
Court Denies Tonsorial Artist
the Right to Tinker Toes.

4 chiropodst is q chiropodst, but a
barber is just barber. That Is how the
Supreme Court looks upon the subject
Michael Saracena is a barber, with two
or three downtown shops. Also, he was
member Of the State BARRIERS Commits
sion, when that institution was In exist
ence. But Saracena wants also TO be a
chiropodist He applied to the Pedic So
ciety. which has charge Of such matters,
for certificate to practise. but was
turned down
Saracena applied 10 the court for writ
Of mandamus TO compel the society to
give him a certificate. Joseph Renks. an
examiner. said he had known Saracena
since 1892 and that he was always a bar
Der He used to practise chiropody In
the DAYS when no license was necessary
but now he has TO employ chiropodist'
Renks said that one OF the questions
asked Saracena on examination was the
thing to do TO stop the flow OF bloon.
saracena's answer was that In the ola
DAYS he would go to the drug store io'
some antlseptic powder.
Evidently the court did not cohsiueT
that the proper up-to-date first ald TO the
bleeding corn. and Saracena's application
for q nandamus was denied.

BIGGEST CONEY ISLAND JAM
Crowd on Second Night of Mardi
Gras a Record Breaker.

The fun and frivolity that mark the an
nual Mardi Gras at Coney Island We're
more in evidence last night than when
the big carnival opened on Monday. TIL
size of the crowd on the opening evening
was stupendous, but the number of fun
seekers that thronged the resort last
night was beyond estimation. Those who
know Coney ISLAND say that greater
number OF visitors probably never assem-
bled there at the same time before.
To the credit OF the extraordinarily
large crowd there was a minimum Of
rowdyism. Scarcely two dozen persons
were arrested throughout the evening
and IN all cases they we're persons who
entered into the fun with a visor thai
proved annoying to others. None of the
enthusiasts taken to the Coney Island
police station was there on more serious
charges than throwing confetti in places
where it was forbidden.

LINER UNDER A CLOUD
Comes Here from Havana With =

The Ward liner Havana, which slipped
out of Havana without waiting for "A
clean bill OF health from the United
States health authorities. arrived off the
bar at 1880 y. m. yesterday and anchored
for the night. She will proceed up to
Quarantine at daylight, where Dr. O'Con-
nell. health officer of the port. will per
sonally conduct the examination Of her
passengers.
The rumor prevailed last night that II
any effort was made by the federal au-
thorlties TO detain the vessel or prose-
cute her owners tho case would be car
ried to a test The Quarantine officials
said that they. being representatives of
the state, had no authority to hold the
passengers II no sickness appeared among
them, and that they would be permitted
To land as soon as the regular examina-
ton was completed. The vessel. they said,
would probably then be fumigated, as
we're all vessels which came from plague

Banking System Unsound.

An address by Robert w -Bonynge. Of
Denver. member Of the National None
tary Commission. was the feature Of to-
days session. Mir. Bonynge discussed
Banking and Currency Reform and
said in part:
Our banking and currency system is
universally recognized "a thoroughly un-
sound. All the political parties have de-
clared in their platforms of this year
in favor OF its reformation, but no spe-
cihc remedial legislation has been pro-
posed by any. 1t is perhaps better that
they should not have done so. The
problem Is essentially an economic and
business question.
The defects in the existing system that
must be remedied, no matter which party
is charged with the responsibility OF
framing the legislation, are: Our I'M
scientific treatment OF bank reserves, the
the lack OF cooperation among our in
dependent banks.
As II was found necessary TO organize
the federal government 10 guard our ma
tional interests and to legislate on those
subjects affecting us as nation, so we
must have some national federation OF
the banks for national financial purposes.
The independence OF the units must De
absolutely preserved. The powers given
10 the federation of the banks must be
strictly limited TO those that are national
i'm character The form OF organization
must be such as to insure It's operation
i'm the interests of and as a support to
all legitimate business, and must be
wholly free from sectional, political or
selfish financial control
When thus organized, ii must be en-
powered to act as custodian for the re-
serves OF the banks. TO rediscount their
short time commercial paper, TO provide
a safe and sound bank note currency
that will automatically adjust itself to
the constant changes In business require
ments, TO act as the governments fiscal
agent and TO represent us In all ma
tional and all International financial at
fairs.
The experience of the world proves that
a currency issued by a government, or
by government owned institution,
always lacks the essential element OF
elasticity It's amount IL determined by
the governments needs and fixed by stat
utory provisions. which cannot be speedily
altered TO meet changing conditions. The

reasons that the issuance of bank note

Frame. of Waukesha. Wis, at the annual
convention Of the American Bankers AS
ISOLATION this afternoon dictated the per-
sonnet OF a committee to which the or
ganization had previously granted the
power Of rewriting the associations con-
stitution The committee was ordered to
report at the spring convention.
Mr.. Frame was the author of an amend
ment to the present constitution which
proposed to change the mode of electing
officers The amendment charged that
ten men have held $50 prominent Offices
during the last ten years and that the
expenses of the association have been I'M
necessarily high.
This afternoon the executive council re-
ported unfavorably on the amendment
stating at the time that II was generally
admitted a complete revision of the asso-
cations organic law was necessary and
that the matter would be brought before
the present convention later.
After Mr.. Frame had agreed 10 with
draw his amendment Until the convention
acted on the constitutional revision mo-
ton was made to take up that matter al
the meeting next spring. Then the Wauke-
sha banker threw down the gauntlet

and then inform I'd the convention that if
they accepted his committee as named in
would withdraw his constitutional amend
ment. That there was strong opposition
was instantly evident. and when the ques-
ton was put to a vote a volume of

President Livingstone took two votes and
then decided that the convention had
chosen the Frame committee.
