CURRENCY BILL REPORTED,
ADMINISTRATION BILL GOES BE-
FORE DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS.
President to Insist on Passage But
Some Members of the House Will
Object to Glass Favorable RcpOrt
of Measure.

Washington, Aug. 1O-Presidcnt
Wilson'S currency plans will meet
their first real test tomorrow when
the administration currency bill will
be laid before a Democratic house
caucus. The bill goes in with three
adverse Democratic votes from the
banking committee, and with q well
organized opposition against many Of
its features, within the Democratic
ranks
The president has been assured by
his advisers in congress that the
measure can be passed in the house
without material change, and he has
not altered his purpose to insist upon
currency legislation at the present
special session. The house caucus is
being awaited with keen intrest, be-
cause of the anticipation of a de-
termincd effort to delay consideration
OF currency reform and to make i'm
pOrtant changes in the bill.
The efforts of the president and
Secretary McAdOo to align sentiment
in the senate in support of immediate
currency legislation have been less
successful than in the house How
ever, IL the Democratic leaders sue
ceed in lining up strong majority in
the house caucus tomorrow on the
support Of the bill and secure the ap-
proval Of the measure without change.
it is hoped that the effect upon tho
senate will be to induce reluctant
committees to agree to immediate leg
islation.
While the banking bill is thus
thrust to the front at the beginning
OF the week, 1T will not displace the
tariff in the activities of the congress
sional week. The senate has reached
some of the most important sections
Of the tariff revision bill and within
the coming week that body is likely to
find itself in the midst of the fights
over the sugar tariff, agricultural.
products and possibly the woolen
schedule.
These portions Of the bill will bring
out the first important activities of
Senator La Toilette, and are counted
upon also to show the first definite
alignment among the Progressive Re-
publican forces in support of substi-
tutea for the Democratic tariff rates.
The Progressive Republicans have at
tempted to reach an understanding
over substitute sections, and it is be-
lieved they will go into the sugar,
wool, cotton and other contests with
an organized programme to which
they will try to win all Republicans
and few Democrats.

first division herof, we need not pass
definitely upon this point. 1t is suf-
ficient, for the purpose of the future,
to suggest that the form of instruc-
ton 22 is Objectionable, and ought to
be avoided.
In State VS.. Young, 1873 n. w. Rep.
ST., we held a similar instruction to
be con-prejudicial because the de-
PENDANT in that case testified that he
struck the fatal blow.
AS bearing upon the question OF
prejudice, the defendant in support
of motion for new trial, filed the
aftidavits of jurors, showing that
eleven jurors did misunderstood the
instructions and did suppose that the
question thus stated was predeter-
mined by the Court. Some further
showing was made in such aftidavits
as to a finding of facts by the jury
to the effect that they found that the
defendant had no weapon and took
no active part. These attidavits were
stricken on the ground that they
tended to impeach the verdict This
ruling was proper.

If the form of the instruction was
appropriate, it could not be assailed

viction must be reversed, and the

ings in harmony herewith.
