DIFFERENCE OVER NEW
ISSUES OF CURRENCY

Washington, June S.-Secretary Of
the Treasury McAdoo and congress
sfonal leaders differ, it was reported
today, on the new issues of currency
in the proposed administration cur
rency reform bill The secretary de-
sires that the government issue all
paper money, replacing the present
gold certificates, and national bank
notes.
Chairman Glass, of the house bank
ing and currency committee, says he
would not disturb any of the present
United States notes, but would retire
national hank notes, and permit re-
serve associations to issue currency.
Secretary McAdoo's plan is designed
to permit a great participation by the
government in the operations of re-
serve associations than heretofore pro-
posed. All reform schemes would pro-
vide an elasticity by permitting pro-
posed reserve associations to redis-
count commercial paper.

GO TO INVESTIGATE
CHARGES OF PEONAGE

Washington, June s.-The senate
sub committee named to investigate
the West Virginia coal strike and con-
ditions leaves for Charleston Monday
night. The examination of scores of
miners, secured by agents of the Unit
ed Mine Workers, to testify as to the
charges that Paint creek and Cabin
creek miners were held in virtual peon-
age. will be started Tuesday. The sit
uation has been greatly complicated
by the indictment of United Mine
Workers officials under the Sherman
law and the further labor outbreaks in
the New River field The indictment
may force senators to limit their ef-
forts to investigate the charge of con-
spiracy by the operators in other
states to avoid giving immunity to
anybody who might be called to ac-
count in the courts. The intimations
of the mine operators that the COM
mittee's advent might cause further
trouble has not deferred the senators.

American concern in any state and re-
ceive the same advantages as Ameri-
can capital by employing American
ships and crews. But the Germans
hesitated lest, by hostile legislation,
they might be compelled at some later
date to withdraw their American built
ships from the coastwise' trade. This
would leave them an improbable in
vestment, since ships built in this
country at 80 to so per cent greater
cost cannot be employed profltably in
the foreign trade.
The German proposal is a federal
charter, with visitorial powers for the
United States government over the
corporation. This will require special
legislation, which the company does
not hope for at the special session of
congress. The call for tenders is in

fed, would be prepared to put in the

Of Six Steamships Are Asked

In spite of restrictions put upon the
sale, any one may go into drug store
today and obtain enough bichloride Of
mercury TO kill a regiment without
giving the Identification of himself or
revealing his intentions.
1t is a simple matter to obtain the
poison. A pretense is made that its
sale is restricted, and that any one
purchasing must give his name, but
the register books OF the drug stores
are filled with fictitious names and the
managers Of the establishments say
that "it is all a farce" The blchlgride
is sold under the poison laws Of the

to limit the sale the same as in the
