TY 10 FOREIGNERS

Washington Nov 25 Although no
application has been made to the
state department for the extradition
for former President zelaya of Mic
aragua, the denartment Of justice has
been requested to cause his provi-
sional detention
Under what phase of law the de.
tention is sought was not developed
early today, though it was regarded as
possible by the officials Of the state
department than an application for
zelaya's detention is preliminary to
the filing OF formal application for
his extradition to Nicaragua, and that
only the arrival of the papers is nee
essary to initiate the formal proceed
ings. While all officers were reticentI
to discuss the reason for zelaya's de-
tention, it was generally supposed to
be charge Of murder, connected
with his summary execution Of Can
non and Groce americans, in Near
aqua in 1908, which led to the up
heaval which enasd ID zelaya's flight
to Europe and revolution which
put his party out Of power.
Later today solicitor Folk Of the
state department received from the
Nicaraguan legation a request for the
provisional detention Of zelaya pend
ing the arrival of a petition, now in
transmission from Nicaragua, asking
for his extradition on murder charge.
Zelaya's extradition Is sought, it
was learned, on charges that he was
responsible for the murder Of two OF
his eountrymen in 1901 The deaths
of Cannon and Groce do. not figure
directly in the present proceedings.

trations second great legislative
measure, the currency bill, which was
opened yesterday with short state
ment by Senator Owen, the admins
tration leader, was continued today

bill agreed on by the opposition fac
ton in the senate banking commit
tee.
Senator Hitchcock pointed out the
Importance of currency legislation to
the country generally,
President Wilson, in making cur
rency reform an administration meas
ure, has merited and received che
praise of the whole country" he said.
"His wisdom and nis courage IN
bringing this needed reform to a piae-
tical issue is to be highly commended.
Nothing less than presidential influ-
ence would have made banking and
currency reform possible for some
time. hold this tribue due to the
president Of the United States, the
more readily because I have frankly
opposed and criticised him when he
urged hasty action, which / deemed
dangerous"
The senator reviewed differences
between the bill he presented and
that presented by Senator Owen, and
dwelt at length on the provision in
his draft to make the four regional
banks publicly owned and govern
ment controlled. lie declared the
house bill and the owen bill were
faulty in that they forced banks to
give up a part Of their present cap
ital for the new system.
ITO take away from these individ-
ual banks at one sweep one-tenth Of
their cash capital was, in my opinion,
mistake It was to aggravate the.
evil of laek Of capital, which already
existed. and still further reduces the
margin OF safety for the depositors.
And so, | have joined in recommend
ing an amendment by which the capt.
tai in the regional banks, instead of
being supplied by the banks them
Selves is to be supplied by the people
of the United States"
Senator Hitchcock said that his
plan contemplated regional institu-
tions at Chicago, New York, st. Louis
and San Francisco. He presented the
division Of capital and the business
of the country among these banks and
described the usefulness of the four
institutions to the banks and borrow
ers of each district
Senator Shafroth, one of the demo-
