Holding Session in Chicago for
Deliberations
Association Secretary Praised
President Wilson

Chicago, Aug. 22.-Over 200 brokers,
delegates from the clearing house and
banking associations, assembled here
to voice their objections to the Glass
owen currency bill now before con-
gress and make suggestions for the
law by which they hope to bring about
the improvement of the banking sys-
tenn of the country The conference is
called by the currency commission OF
the American Bankers association
According to F. e. Farnsworth of
New York secretary3so of the organiza1
ton, there are four fundamental feat
ures of the bill which the bankers of
the country oppose.
They oppose the government control
provision. the reserve feature the por-
tion referring to the note issue by the
government and the stipulation for the
Refunding of Q per cent bonds.
No formal programme is prepared,
but general discussion will follow the
York, chairman of the currency COM
mission, which is expected to be the
keynote of the conference.
Il think we should consider the bill
topic by topic. or section by section, In
the spirit of helpful co operation, and
see IL we cannot aid the government to
accomplish wise and wholesome legis-
lation, that wall place our industries
and our people on a par with the other
great commercial nations
The pledge OF cooperation by AL.
Barton Hepburn, In his speech ais
chairman, is an evidence of the. atti-
tude the bankers expect to maintain an
consfd deration OF the pending currency
bill. Mr. Hepburn gave stlligh praise
to the administration for its earnest
ness In taking up the subject.

Sherbrooke, Aug. 22.The habeas
corpus proceedings in the case Of Har-
ry K. Thaw having been postponed
until Wednesday, interest in the case
is now centered in the arraignment of
the men arrested here Wednesday, who
aided Thaw to cross the Canadian
frontier.
Although describing himself as
Mitchell Thompson," he has been
identified as Gentleman Roger
Thompson, chauffeur of New York
City one of the i've who aided Thaw
in his escape from Matteawan. .s.
When arrested, Thompson main
tanned he was citizen of Toronto and
met Thaw by chance. .
Sheriff Hornbeck of Duchess coun-
ty, New York, although coming here
primarily to watch the Thaw case, has
a warrant charging Thompson, with
Others, for conspiring to cause Thaw's
escape. =
Thompson was afraigned before Po-
lice Judge Mulvena after Thomas F
Campbell, acting jointly before the
dominion department Of immigration

fined there and was insane have

The decision to make a compre-
hensive statement on the situation of
congress was reached after the pres1-
dent had about concluded that the
negotiation between Mr. Lind and
Provisional President Huerta since
the exchange of notes had developed
no new basis for discussion.
With his message, the president will
present the two notes, setting forth
the American suggestions to the
Huerta government and its reply.
Should he read the document himself,
which he is being urged to do by
members of his cabinet and to which
idea he is strongly inclined, 1t will be
the first time since the days of George
Washington that a president has COM
municated a matter of foreign policy
in person to the legislative branch of
the government.
There is a we'll defined belief in Of
fetal circles that President Wilson
thinks the reading of an address,
which will lay the American viewpoint
and the Huerta contentious before
congress and people Of this country
and which also will be public to the
world generally, cannot but have an
important effect on the situation in
Mexico. 1t is expected to be a
partial answer to the intimations OF
Provisional President Huerta in his
note that President Wilson stands
alone in his Mexican policy and un-
supported generally in congress.

WISCONSIN FARMER #
Is MUST HOMESTEAD LAND
HE THOUGHT HE OWN ED.

Manitowoc, Wis, Aug. 22.--Wil-
liam, Meyer, a farmer living in the
town of Cato, will spend fourteen
months homesteading a forty-acre
tract of land which for years he
believed he owned. Then he will
pay the United States government
$1.15 an acre for his own land. q.
Meyer got the land through his
wife, who believed that she owned
it.. An investigation recently made
by Meyer, when he desired an alb
stract to sell the forty, developed
that the land had never been deed
ed by the government. Forty years
ago a former town clerk, through
error, had returned the property as
delinquent for non payment Of
taxes, but government land being
not taxable, no title could go with
the tax deed at the sale by the
county treasurer. However. the
land passed from one owner to an
other until Meyer, seeking an alb
stract, discovered the discrepancy.
He retained attorneys and a rll-
ing has just been received that he
must homestead the land. Meyer
erected shack on the property
yesterday to take possession.

Says He Received $3.50 Per
Week While In Congress


Washington, Aug. 22.-Herbert e.
Miles, of Racine, Wis. testified before
the senate lobby committee that when
acting for the tariff commission as
sociation, he had employed former
Rep. James e. Watson. at a salary OF
$3.50 per week, to work for the tariff
board bill in congress in 1908.
He confirmed Martin HI. MulhalPs
testimony that Mulhall advanced the
first $500 paid Watson, who was not
then a member of the house. Miles
denied that the national association
of manufacturers sought to elect or
defeat a candidate for Office.
Miles declared he wouldn't permit
Mulhall to advance the money had he
known the national association of
manufacture was to reimburse him
Miles charged Mulhall with stealing
a letter he had written in 1909, say
ing that Speaker Cannon was against
the tariff board.
