Have Bills of Their Own.

Congress is not taking kindly to the
idea of voting on the currencJ this sum
mer Not only have leading members
bills of their own in which they take
pride. but they point ont that currency
will excite quite as much discussion as
the tariff and that. unlike the tariff.

dices of sections which dare not support
any seeming reform for fear 1t Will play
into the hands of wall street.
Tie President figures that the wise
thing is to bring cut currency ID
quickly and put it through. The states
men who are hanging back agree with
him, but they say that the time to bring
it out is next December. otherwise they
must insist that the bill lie over untli the
winter session This is the status OF that
phase of currency legislation
The hardest nut for all fiscal reform
ers to crack always has been to get awaY
from government bonds as security for
bank circulation. The Aldrich plan
would accomplish this partly by requiring
the national reserve ASSOCIATION to puV
the > per cent bonds of the banks and cx-
change them with the Secretary Of the

There are roughly S100,G00.G3o worth of
per cent bonds scattered among the
banks. and the proposition now preached

rate of about $10.O00.G00 a year.
The criticism is made that at the end
! OF ten years the government would have
outstanding about 500, 0G0.O00 in ; per

market, and that by that time the invest

TRAP FOR HIMSELF
Jurors Fail Him, and He Is

New York history was witnessed to-
day before Judge Swami when coun-

Judge Swami. who was opposed to

Mrs. Fitzhugh had pleaded guilty on
jewels from Dorothy Fisk. daughter OF
Pliny Fisk. the banker. and Edna Irene
Munsey, an actress.
Judge Swami remanded her for SEN
tence to-day, and many assertions were
made in the corridors of the courthouse
that Creed NJ Fulton. her Washington

her.
Judge Swami announced upon en-
terinG court that he would not permit
the withdrawal of her plea. and "A legal

ending the argument quickly. Judge

Those in control of the National
