CURRENCY BILL
Being SHAPED
Wilson and McAdoo Confer
on Measure-Two Sec
tions Written.

Washington, May 31.-1n an effort
to whip the administration's currency
reform bill into final shape, President
Wilson and Secretary McAdoo are
holding frequent conferences.
1t was learned yesterday that Rep
resentative Carter Glass of Virginia.
chairman Of the banking and currency
committee. and author Of the tenta-
tive draft Of the administration's BILL
has rewritten entirely two sections of
the measure at the presidents sugges-
ton, and has. presented them to the
president for consideration. Mr..
Glass refused to say what particular
portions of the bill these were.
Close friends of the president pro-
fess to see in the decision of the sen-
ate banking and currency committee
to seend out long list of questions to
bankers. nothing less than an attempt
to defeat currency legislation at this
session. They say that every one Of
the questions was answered by wit
nesses before the house committee last
winter.

the death Of President Mckinley. My
observation was that he was not q

influence of liquor as far az have OBJ
served. He doesn't use profanity"
