II MONEY

The investigation OF The alleged
money trust by the Puio committee,
is washing a good deal of dirty linen
around New York. but it is not de-
veloping much 10 Indicate that a
money trust really exists. The great
New York banks undoubtedly exer.
else n powerful influence upon the
supplies OF money in New York city
and elsewhere. The same condition
exists in a smaller measure in every
important financial center, and In
fact, in every village and town In
which there is a bank. The local
banker in the cross roads town is
the financial magnste. and he con-
trolls local finance quite as directly
and decisively as the associated banks
OF New York city control metropolitan
finance.
How this condition OF affairs can
be ended Is a question. Whether it
will be well to end IL is another ques-
ZION. Some one and some set Of men
must control the supplies OF money

ness and who probably have the most
direct interest in the orderly. even
and regular continuance Of business
affairs. Testimony before he Puio
committee shows that the Oriental
bank, OF New York, was probably
wrecked by the unwise calling OF
loans by the clearing house. Where
the New York clearing house may
have injured one bank. Il has helped
save dozens Of others. While the
activities OF the New York clearing
house might be controlled by law. II
is by no means certain that any such
control could be made effective with.
out hampering the clearing house and
limiting its usefulness.

most disgusting in their attacks upon the Republican National Commrtee.

games would be distributed among the
players OF the other fourteen major
league teams. Another part of the
plan provides the definite apportion-
ment of a certain sum from the total

to be general that the league club
owners and all the players in general

Romp With the Tirer.

Sunday afternoon in the auditorium
of the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation, Evangelist Williams gave his
famous address The Last Romp
With the Tiger This is considered
by many as the cap sheaf in the
repertoire OF this noted drummer
preacher. 1t is told as story found
ed on his last debauch before his
reformation. It was the old, old story
wildly conceived and graphically
told. He introduced his remarks by
saying: There was an old gentleman
who had been at sea. He landed in
New York City, came to bird store,
and began to buy the birds and set
them free, until he had bought out the
entire store. | wish it to be under

He then gave a detailed history OF
his frightful and perilous romp with
the tiger and held his audience with
intense interest as he rehearsed this
graphic act in the drama of his life.
