gag and putting him in prison without
an opportunity to be heard. He should
be permitted to appear before the COM

requested.
Levy took the initiative and presented
resolution remanding the prisoner to
the penitentiary until the close of the
session, unless otherwise ordered by the
assembly. The vote for the arrest was
50 to 3.
A short time later Garrison was being
rushed to the penitentiary. An attache
of the institution today said that the
prisoner was shown no special favors and
that the prison authorities had no orders
other than to hold him as an ordinary
prisoner. Levy was obviously pleased
by the turn of affairs in the Garrison
case, and he declared that unless Garri-
son purged himself of the contempt he
would have to remain in Jail until Jan
uary.
The assembly has plenary power to
punish for contempt" he said. ''Garri-
son also must go back to Jail pending
the courts decision on his application
for writ. He cannot be released on
bail

IN EMBARRASSING POSITION.
Federal Bureau Seeks Private Funds
for Enterprise It Promoted.

Having induced the Netherlands gov
eminent to extend an invitation to the
nations of the world TO participate in an
international conference on education the
government of the United States Is now
in the embarrassing position of relying
upon private contributions of money 10
defray the expenses OF its own repre-
sentation at the gathering. That situs-
ton has resulted from the enactment by
Congress of a prohibition against the ex-
penditure of any public funds for Ameri-
can representation in international con-
ferences, after the State Department had
requested the Netherlands government TO
call the educational conference to meet
at The Hague.
Originally ii was planned to hold that
meeting i'm the present month. but the
date was postponed until September.

ected the conference. is now moving ID

BRYAN ASSERTS BANKS
ARE PUBLIC SERVANTS
Endorses GIaSS-0Wen Bill in
Address Before American
Institute.

RICHMOND, Va, September 10
Secretary William j. Bryan yesterday
afternoon delivered before the MEM
bers Of the American Institute OF
Banking virtually his first public
speech on the currency bill, the key
note of his argument being that
banks exist for the accommodation OF
the public and not for the control of
business"
Secretary Bryan, Immediately follow
ing the conclusion of his address, left
for Charlottesville to fill lecture en-
gagement.
Laws Framed for Bankers.
Secretary Bryan. in declaring that
banks exist for the accommodation OF
the public, and not for the control of
business" added that in that sentence
was a fundamental truth on which all
banking legislation should be founded.
I'VE have had for two generations"
he continued, Legislation on banking
system, but they have been almost uni
versally framed in favor OF the bank
ers. There can be only one purpose in
placing money in banks. that is. to get
it out again. If you think otherwise,
suppose you drew up paper on this
subject
The owens Glass bill was not drawn
with the idea of Capitalization. There
has been too much Capitalization.
There has been too much Wall street.
Il am in favor Of this system OF re-
gional banks. for in it l see help for
the smaller institutions.
Defends Government Power.
1T has been objected that the gov
eminent should not issue the money of
the country. We hear such objections
only in times Of peace. In times Of war
there is no question who should issue
the money. 1t must be the government.
Your legislatures enact laws whereby
men shall be hanged: and do you tell
me that this government has no right
to control a bank?"
In conclusion Mr.. Bryan congratulated
Virginia upon having produced "a
President (Mr. WILSON, who, for once,
is heartily in accord with Congress
and who has at heart the revision and
refOrmatl ton OF our currency system"
