cain who told Inspector Faurot Of
the detective bureau that Schmidt and
Muret, a short time ago, tried to ar
range with him to issue death certifi-

is true the fact stands out big and
black that Father Schmidt and Dr.
Muret had plan whereby they would
collect insurance. am happy to state
that the physician hatly declined to
listen to their proposal"
Inspector Faurot has learned, he
said, that the dentist, at one time in
his life figured as an insurance
broker.
The inspector said that with the as
sistance of the Chicago police he was
trying to find If there was any con-

CURRENCY BILL UNDER FIRE.
SENATOR REED PROPOSES NEW
SCHEME TO TAKE PLACE OF
HOUSE BILL.
Samuel Cnterlneyer Before Senate
Committee Offers Objections to
Hitchcock Plan-SenatOrs Against
Reserve Bank System.

Washington, Sept. 23.-Complete
revision OF the framework of the ad-
ministration currency bill was pro-
posed by Senators Reed, Hitchcock
and Bristow today during the exam
inatiOn Of Samuel Untermyer before
the senate banking committee.
Senators Reed and Hitchcock have
vigorously assailed certain provisions
of the house bill. Today Senator Reed
advanced what he called the Hitch
cock plan which would entirely elm
ate from the proposed system the
;tire scheme of regional reserve
banks and substitute government is
sue of currency to individual banks
on commercial paper backed by
SO per cent gold reserve up to 75
per cent Of the capital stock of each
individual bank. That would be i'm
addition to the present bank note
issue.
Senator Reed, in a long speech ad-
vocating the plan, criticized the re-
gional bank plan as making the in
dividual banks ''subservient to a COM
bination of banks"
Mr.. Untermyer opposed the Hitch
cock plan as not offering enough
security to the government for the
issue of currency.
The committee was unable to CON-
clude the questioning of Mr.. Inter
myer today and he will return Mon
day.
The committee also heard a delega-
ton Of Minnesota business men rep
resenting Minnesota commercial or
CARNATIONS. Edward p. Wells told
the committee that the delegation, al
though opposing the bill, did not
represent banking interests. He de-
clared the idea for capitalizing the
federal reserve banks was confiscating
capital and putting it into an 'oreoziSz
| zatit'n that might bee6me >el(5 - y
oali of politicians" sdr. Wells be-
lieved country banks would be unabie
to take advantage of their redisc0unt
provisions because much of the farms
ers' paper ran for year and under
the bill only 90-day paper would be
available for rediscount.
Mr.. Wells declared that in talking
with 300 country bankers in the
Northwest he had not heard a single
expression in favor of the bill.
Il believe the business men of the
country" he said, would be satis-
fled to continue under the present sys-
tenn, temporarily at least, long enough
to allow proposed legislation to be
thoroughly considered and digested."
Charles M. Harrington read a
lengthy argument to show that under
the proposed system the banks of
the Northwest would not have avail
able sufficient funds to handle the
farmers products during the fall and
winter months.

COURT VOTES FOR TRIAL.
VOTE OF 81 TO BY HIGH COURT
AGAINST PLEA OF SULZER'S
LAWYERS.
Only Wende of Buffalo UphOlds Re-
spOndent's Contentious After
Judge Cullen Maintains Right of
Assembly to Act i'm Extra Session.


Albany, n. Y, Sept. 22.-Gov. Will
liam Sulzer must go to trial. This
was decided by the high court of
impeachment tonight when, by vote
of 81 to /, it's members Overruled
the motion of the governors counsel
to dismiss the proceedings on the
ground that he was uncOnstitutionally
impeached by the assembly because
that body was in extra session when
the impeachment was brought.
Senator Gottfried H. Wende of Buff
falo (DemocraD, an ardent supporter
of the governor, cast the solitary nay,
while seven members Of the court
were absent.
The governors defeat was the sec
ond that has marked the battle waged
by his attorneys to annihilate as far
as possible the impeachment proceed
ings. Last week the court thwarted
their attempt to prevent four sena-
tors from sitting as members. The
remaining ammunition consists of
arguments to prove that certain of
the Offenses charged against the gov
ernor are not impeachable. These
arguments will be heard tomorrow.
TOnight's vote was taken in secret
session after an afternoon devoted to
speeches by the opposing attorneys.
When the time came for the court to
render it's decision, Presiding Judge
Cullen announced that he did not feel
inclined to use the power granted him
under the rules to be the first to ex-
press an opinion.
my brethren he said, "you will
readily appreciate that the point
which has been discussed goes to the
very foundation Of this proceeding.
If decided in one way the proceedings
must necessarily stop. You have the
power to clear the court for private
consultation under the rules"
This was done on motion of Judgs
Collin (another judge). but the vote
later announced in a brief public ses-
sion and the record Of the proceedings
showed that a tentative roll call on
the motion was Immediately taken
and that the presiding judge delivered
long opinion on the points at issue
when his name was called, 18th on
the list.
Judge Cullen's opinion, in SUBJ
stance, was that the provision of the
constitution which limited the facts
of the legislature in extra session to
such subjects as were recommended
to 1T by the governor should be given
reasonable construction. 1t upheld
the contention Of the prosecution that
the provision referred to the legisla-
ture as a whole and not to the as
sembly as an independent body.
$50 construed said Judge Cullen,
these subjects relate to what the leg
islature as a body can do and not to
the power vested in one branch of the
legislature"
The tentative roll call brought from
Senator Wende the only negative vote.
The call was followed by a viva voce
vote and then with a final roll call
with the same result
Senator Wende explained his vote
in brief argument in which he held
that when the assembly adjourned
sine die some weeks before recon-
vening to bring the impeachment ar
ticles they. fOreclosed their right to
act upon any question of impeachment
when called together in extraordinary
session."
