beneficial as treating the cloth with
coat OF varnish. The milk can be
wiped dry in a few minutes. but the
varnish will not dry for several days.
White paint in a kitchen is both san

with two coats Of yarnish. so that any

II is declared with satisfaction at the
State Department that even under the

LINDBERGH STILL OPPOSES
ALDRICH'S FINANCIAL PLAN
Commissions Proposed Modification
Does Not Remove His
Objection.

Representative Lindbergh of Minnesota,
author of the resolution for an investi-
cation of the money trust" which is
now pending before the House rules com
mittee. does not feel any more kindly
disposed to the Aldrich financial plan
because of the amendment which, it is
reported, the monetary commission has
decided to make in the plan in order to
meet the expressed opposition. Briefly
stated. the monetary commission now
proposes that the financial institutions of
New York will control only 10 per cent
of the representation in the central re-
serve association, although they possess
fully 30 per cent of the banking capital.
The change proposed to be made in
the Aldrfch plan" said Mr.. Lindbergh
today, lis an admission that the Aid
rich plan heretofore proposed was in
error. 1t also shows upon it's face that
1t proposes to be partial and to give
some localities advantages over others.
That in itself shows that the commits
sion Is working on a wrong principle.
In my judgment, the fact that the
commission has shifted to this new
and not essentially better plan will
weaken the influence of it's report.
Even under the new proposition the
control would not be taken away from
Wall street. More than half of the
fifteen branches suggested by the
amendment would be organized by the
Morgan and Rockefeller influences, and
would give them and their associates
control There are no suggestions that
there is any change to be made in the
reserve system. 1t lis the reserves prin-
cipally that give the money control to
a limited few. The suggestion that
banks cannot hold stock in other banks
is of comparatively slight Importance
when we consider the facts. Banks do
not now hold stock in other banks to
any great extent, but it is the individual
stockholders that own the stock Of very
many banks.

seauently Mr. Stanley's request by wire

anticipated before night accepting the in
vitation.
The Stanley .committee-at least some
members of it-are much disappointed as
a result of ]. r. Morgan's departure for
foreign shores for an indefinite period.
They were anxious to have him before
the committee and question him as to
the formation Of the United States Steel
Corporation, and ascertain, II possible
the actual amount OF water In the CAPT.
talization Of that gigantic concern. Mr.,
Morgans stay abroad being announced as
indefinite" there is belief among men,
bers of Congress that he will not return
until after final adjournment next spring
After Mr.. Carnegie has finished his tes-
timony, it is understood. some Other men
prominent In the world OF hnance Will

SENATOR KERN TO READ
WASHINGTON ADDRESS
Vice President Sherman Des.
Inmates Indianian to Give
First Presidents Farewell.

Senator John W. Kern OF Indiana has
been designated by Vice President Sher-
man to read Washington's farewell adj
dress before the Senate Washington
birthday.
Inasmuch as the designation was made
the same day that Vice President Sher-
mans bust arrived at the Capitol, there
is talk that Mr.. Sherman designated Mr..
Kern to give him a consolation prize.
For il will be remembered that had vic
tory in the last presidential race gone
to the democrats it would be Mr. Kern's
would soon be placed in the vice presi-
dental hall of fame.
Some Of the leading orators of the Sem
ate have read Washington's farewell adj
dress before the Senate. Senator Lafay-
cite Young of Iowa, now an ex-senator.
read it last year, and Senator Depew
had the honor two years ago.
Experience of Senator Perkins.
The appointment has served to revive
a story involving Senator Perkins of Cali
fornia.
He was designated to read the address
several years ago: and the Senate. the
day before, moved to meet at IL O'Clock
instead of Il o'clock, in order to put in
full time on legislative matters. But Sen
ator Perkins was not notified. and when
the Senate was called to order at IL
O'Clock Mr.. Perkins was conspicuous by
his absence. Messengers went flying
hither and thither to find him. He was
located in his Office in the Maltby build
ing, familiarizing himself with the mes
sage he thought he was to read at II
o'clock. He was hustled over to the Capt.
toll. but the hustling was so great that he
lost about all the breath he had started
with. and it was some minutes before he
could begin the reading.
The result was that the reading did not
start much before Il o'clock, and the Sen
ate saved no time by appointing an earlier
meeting hour.

and Frank Morrison adjudged in contempt
| OF court. These dispositions will later be
| read at the trial Of the cause before the
six justices Of the District Supreme Court
| In the spring.
The monotony Of today's testimony was
an objection by Attorney Jackson H.
RalstOn to certain testimony, Daniel
Davenport of the committee Of prose-
cutors minated that Mr.. Ralston was
unacquainted with the charges against
Gompers and his associates.
Called Charges ''Truck."
In answering the suggestion. Mr.. Raj
| ston referred to the volume Of the charges
as 80 much truck" Justice Wright took
exception to the language of the attor-
ney. remarking that the charges had
| been passed upon by all six judges of the
court. and the use Of such epithets toward
| them was disrespectful. Attorney Raj
ston apologized for his language. and the
incident was closed.
Late yesterday afternoon William ].
| Wilson, representative in Congress from
Pennsylvania, was called to the stand.
| He was formerly secretary OF the United
| Mine Workers and was present at the
convention In Indianapolis in AIS when

| Mr.. Wilson admitted such resolution
was passed. He could not recall whether
or not John Mitchell presided when the
resolution was put to a vote.
Miss Rosa l.. Guard, private secretary
| to Mr.. Gompers, told the court she occu-
pied a room adjoining that OF the labor

| whether anybody else worked In her
room. She was inclined to think not.
Finally, she replied that she did not re-
| member.
Knows Nothing Of Papers.
Attorney Daniel Davenport. for the
prosecution, asked her about a stack of
copies of the American Federationist of
January, 1908. and what became Of them.
It was in this issue that the prosecu-
ton alleges an editorial by Mr.. Com.
pers was published in violation Of the
courts order prohibiting the further
boycotting of the Bucks Stove and Range
Company. She was unable to tell any,
thing about the copies.
Miss Josephine Kelly, private secretary
to Secretary Morrison, did not help the
prosecution any more than Miss Guard.
She knew nothing, she said, about the
copies Of the Federationist in question.
