necessity in view OF the international
situation Of electing a national presi-

1T would be impossible not to de-

ministerial disarray, those treacherous
ambushes, those obscure struggles in
which the clash of selfish ambition re-
places loyal fight for ideals, enfeebling
the nation before Europe in arms
1t was time. continued the manifesto,
that the breath of union and faith
passed over France and the vote Of the
people, directly consulted, could alone
give that real authority so necessary
to a chief of state who would not as
sociate himself with any of the factions.
Therefore, the chief of state must, be-

Wade Thinks a Central
Bank Is a Desirable
Thing
OPPOSITION is
SENTIMENTAL
Glass Says There Is an In
superable Political
Obstacle

Washington, Jan. l5.-"This country
can never have sound monetary sys-
tenn without a central bank" declared
Festus J. Wade of st. Louis, member
of the banking and currency committee
of the American Bankers association,
yesterday before the House currency re-
form committee. Mr.. Wade said the
so.called Aldrieh plan proposed the best
system that had come under his observa,
ton. Chairman Glass told the witness
that the declaration of the Democratic
party against the Aldrich bill practi-
cally precluded the constellation OF any
plan embodying the central bank fea-
ture, and asked for an opinion ON a
system Of divisional reserve banks SUI
pervised by central board. "You may
be able to work that out, the witness
replied, but the system will not be
sound without the central bank"
Mr.. Wade insisted that Democratic
opposition to central bank was large
ly sentimental and recommended that
the committee report measure similar
to the Aldrich bill whether it is SEN
timent or the ghost of Andrew jack
son." replied Chairman Glass, there is
IN insuPerahle political obstacle to the
aldrich plan

CANAL TOLL QUESTION
TO BE REOPENED
Senator Root Moves To Eliminate the
Provision Exempting American
Ships From Payment.

Washington, Jan l5.--Senator Root
yesterday introduced bill to amend
the Panama canal act to eliminate the
provision exempting American coastwise
ships from the payment of tolls. The
bill is expected to reopen the entire
question of Panama tolls, now at is
she with Great Britain, and to pave
the way for new discussion of the
subject in the Senate. Senator Root
gave notice that on Jan. 81 he would
speak in support of his bill, and IL is
understood that several other senators
win follow him with speeches both for
and against the proposed repeal. Many
members of the Senate have declared
recently that they favored meeting
Great Britain's objections to the canal
law by repeating the free toll provisions
rather than submit the whole subject
to arbitration on the question of the
right of the United States to grant free
passage to American owned ships. Sem
ator Root opposed the free toll provi.
sion when the act was passed last sum
mer and since then has favored either
arbitration or striking out the clause.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
A George NJ Cohan Dramatization
Thursday Evening.

Theatregoers will welcome the an
nouneement that George NJ Conan
dramatization of George Randolph
Chester's Get Rich Quick Wallingford'
will be the attraction at the opera house
Thursday, January rs. II is doubtful il
any purely American play OF recent
years has won the unanimous approval
that has everywhere been accorded this
laughter provoking comedy peoPled with
the cleverly drawn characters that Mr..
Conan secs in real life, remembers, and
then puts it into his plays, emphasizing
their peculiarities without sacrificing
their human qualities. Get Rich Quick
Wallingford" is one of the few plays
that has made an equal success in New
York and Chicago and its simultaneous
triumph in these cities was only the
forerunner of equally emphatic endorse
ment wherever the piece has been sen.
The success OF Get Rich Quick Walling-
ford has proven the wisdom of present
starless plays composed Of parts that
can be made the most of instead of being /
to one central figure. just
who interpret the roles is matter OF
small moment SO long as they are in
the hands of competent players. 1t Is
4 case of the character making the actor
instead of the reverse. The plot of tle
play Is too well known to require ex-
ended mention. From the many crooked
schemes that make up George Randolph
1hester's Wallingford adventures, NJ
1ohan selected the covered carpet tack
md the Midland Valley Traction Lines
lrolInd which to build his comedy Love
interest is added by the introduction OF
1oung stenographer, who has quite as
much to do with the reformation of
'oung Wallngford as has th ua-
expected success of the covered carpet
ack and the sale of the traction line.

No of the crowd of enthusiastic citizens

I'm BOSTON MARKETS.
Butter Market Unsettled and Prices I'm
changea--No Scarcity of Eggs.

Boston, Jan. Embarrassing receipts
of butter and easier tendency in out
side points tend to unsettle the local
market and while no public reduction
in prices is made there is ne doubt that
privately the dealers are making some
concessions to effect sales. The down
ward trend OF outside markets makes To-
cal buyers cautious, while indications of
larger receipts in the next few weeks
make the receivers little anxious to
sell. Fancy Northern creamery is rat
ed in iobbing way at sea 36Mc, but
it is doubtful If there is any business
above sec.
The cheese market is not as firm as
il has been, though no reduction has
been made in quotations; demand, how
ever, is slow and with holders a little
more anxious to sell, full quotations
are not insisted on. The egg market
is no more than steady, owing to the
weakness of other markets; the chief
prop to local prices is not because of
a scarcity, but rather because of fears
that the weather may remain cold long
enough to cause some decrease in the
receipts.
