WILL HAVE CLEANER MONEY.
Banks and Department Stores Dis
posed to Adopt Washing Machines.

Robert o. Bailey, assistant Secretary Of
the Treasury, has returned to Washing
ton from an extended trip in the central
west and south with the prediction that
banks and department stores the country
over would undoubtedly adopt the gov
ernment's money washing machine. The
result would be, he said, that the cur
rency Of the United States would be kept
in better condition than ever before in
history.
81 found bankers intensely interested
in the innovation and distinctly favorable
TO washed money" declared Mr. Bailey.
a banker in Omaha, for instance, said
he intended installing a machine, be-
lieve his example will be followed In
practically all cities other than SUBJ
treasury cities. This will make for clean
currency"
Mr.. Bailey, during his tour, made adj
rangements for installing laundry ma
chimes i'm the subtreasuries Of Chicago.
Cincinnati, ST. Louis and New Orleans
The government laundr.es, Mr. Bailey
said, would be in full operation by Janu-

manufactured. Four will be sent to New
York, two to Chicago. and one each to

delphia, Ba.Stnore and Boston.

RUSSIA HOLDING BACK
ON NEW TRADE TREATY
Declares United States Must
Advance Proposition-Exist-
ing Agreement Lapsing.

Although only three and half months
intervene before the expiration of the
existing treaty of trade and commerce
between Russia and the United States,
there has been absolutely no progress
in the negotiations between the two
countries for a new treaty. The Rus
sian government has let it be known that
as the United States saw fit to denounce
the present treaty, it is incumbent upon
this government to submit some definite
proposition, which may form the basis of
a new treaty. That developed after the
State Department, through Ambassador
Curtis Guild. had signified to the Rus
sian government its readiness to talk
about new treaty.
Not Ready to Submit Proposition.
AS the department was not then pre-
pared to submit such proposition, the
negotiations have been allowed to lapse.
Some of the officials believe that with
the lapse of time the feeling of resent
ment aroused in Russia by the denuncia-
ton of the treaty might abate, and that
with the approach Of the date set for
the expiration Of the existing treaty the
great commercial interests, which are
threatened with destruction by a COM
plete severance OF trade relations on the
ordinary basis might bring to bear in
fiuence strong enough to promise success
when the negotiations are resumed this
fall.
1t is realized that this will be work
of peculiar difficulty owing. to the rela,-
tions of the Jewish question. which led
to the vacation of the existing treaty, to
Russian politics.

D|SCORD IN EACH PARTY
Platform Differences in Wis
consin Republican and DEM
ocratic Conventions.

MADISON, Wis, September 17.-Of the
four state platform conventions which
convened here today the democratic and
the republican gatherings alone promised
sensational features.
In each party-democratic, republican,
social democratic and prohibition-the re-
spective gatherings were called to order
by the chairman of the state central
committee. Committees Of each party
were to be appointed to draft platforms
and pass upon credentials, but aside from
this little was expected today.
! The democratic conversion seemed split
on the income. tax. The adherents OF
A. j. Schmitz. defeated primary guber-
material candidate, believed they had
majority to adopt the recent democratic
platform promulgated at Milwaukee.
They hoped to prevent the adoption OF
a plank asking for the repeal or the
present income tax law. and were WllilhS
to compromise with followers or Judge
J. c. Karel, nominee for governor. upon
a plank asking for specific amendments
for the income tax law. The karel men
were avoWedly opposed 10 TINS proSrdH'
In republican circles conditions were
even more complicated: senator La fol-
lette is here and his followers have begun
to speak out boldly against any plank IA
voring any presidential candidate. They
claimed the last legislature enacted law
permitting the separation OF national ana
state ballots and took this as an argu
ment against indorsing presidential
candidate They were expected. now
ever, to indorse the La Toilette platform
presented to the Chicago convention.
A large question mark was attached 10
the subject Of woman suffrage Two
weeks ago it was assumed that the re-
publican platform would favor, this, but
some of the leaders today thought 1t
would be better for the party to content
itself with pointing out that TINS issue mao
heen referred to referendum and neither
commend nor condemn 1t.
