Secretary Willing to Issue
Emergency Currency Under
the VreeIand-AIdriCh Act.
NO APPLICATIONS MADE
National Banks and Currency
Associations Have Only TO
Comply with the Law to
Obtain Funds.

Washington June ll.-Secretary Nc
Adoo Of the Treasury Department gave
out the following statement tonight:
Secretary McAdoo was asked to-day
II any applications had been received
by the government from national banks
or currency associations for the issu-
ance Of currency under the provisions
Of the Aldrich- Nreeland bill Of May 30
1905 He replied that no such applica-
tions had been received. The Secre-
tary said that the Aldrich- -Vreeland
act. passed FIVE years ago, authorizes
the Secretary OF the Treasury to issue
additional currency To national banks
and currency associations upon the
security of state and municipal bonds
as well as government. and also. under
certain conditions. TO currency associa-
tions, on high class short timed com
mcrcial paper. as well as on govern
ment. state and municipal bonds.
I'm accordance with the act, the Sec
retary of the Treasury has actually IN
hand $JOOOO0,OOO in new national bank
notes. which can be issued Immediately
TO any national banks or currency asso-
Citations applying therefor and comply
ing with the provisions Of the act.
The Secretary said that he would
not hesitate to issue currency to any
banks making application and qualify
ing under the act.
The Secretary explained that the
new currency is, OF course. exactly like
existing national bank notes, and that
if such currency should be issued there
is nothing in the notes or in the man
ner OF their delivery TO indicate that
they are special currency issued under
the Aldrich- Vreeland act.
National currency associations nave
been organized In various parts of the
country, from Massachusetts, To Cali
fornia, including the large cities of
New York, Chicago, st. Louis and 9TH
ers. and are now qualified TO take the
benefits OF the act So that the ma
tional banks and these currency asso-
cations. upon compliance with the act,
NAV quickly receive additional cur
rencv TO the extent Of 100000 900. IL
they require II, upon application to the
Treasury Department. The Aldrich-
Vreeland act expires in June, l9l4."

Appeal to Missing Woman.
Following is the text Of the letter
the missing woman's brother has ad-
dressed to his sister through The Trlb-
une:
1855 Dean street. Brooklyn.
Dear Olga: Your mothers heart is
breaking and your sisters are sorrow
ing for you. Why must this be? Write
10 me: say where you are and let me
come TO YOU that may know that YOU
are not held a prisoner. Your loving
brother. JOHN.
The man in the case. who is bach
elor. was seen last night by reporter
for The Tribune. He declared it was
untrue that he had ever urged Mrs.
Housman TO run away with him.
II do not know where she is now"
he said. "and | know nothing more
about her disappearance other than
what read In the newspapers. / have
already given my full story TO the po-
lice. telling them where / was on the
night that Mrs. Housman disappeared
and they asked me not TO talk TO news
papermen.'
Housman. when interviewed at his
Brooklyn home No. 912 Pacific street,
last night, was surprised when he
heard of the letters signed by his wife
and written to her sister, TO her moth
er. Mrs. s. Koivu. OF No. III Bergen
street. Brooklyn, to the police. and 10
Mrs. w. F. Corrigall. OF Sheepshead
Bay.
Il am sure, and the various letters
written by my wife bear me out" said
Housman. that sne is being coerced
into writing these letters. II she had
deserted me, wouldn't she have sent
back her wedding ring instead Of a
little brooch minus the little diamonds
that were set in it? She has written
me no letters. Perhaps they tried TO
force her TO do that too, but she re-
belled."
Captain William ]. Deevy. in charge
of the detectives, scouts the theory
that Mrs. Housman was spirited away
and is being held prisoner Both he
and the family Of the missing woman
believe that she will soon reappear.

Firm in the belief that his young
wife, Mrs. Olga NJ. Housman. is being
held a prisoner and is forced TO write
the letters that cause her family the
additional pain of uncertainty, although
she herself again writes that she is a
free agent, Alonzo Housman last night
told a reporter for The Tribune that
he believed man. whom he named,
almost double the missing woman's
age, was responsible for her disappear
ance. and is now her jailer. The man
accused by Mr.. Housman was seen by
the reporter. He declared that such an
accusation was wholly untrue.

GIRL WANTED DOG TO RIDE
Kicked IL" Guard Who Kept
Her Off Train, He Alleges.

A fearful but defiant young woman,
closely hugging a black spaniel dog
under one arm. spent several hours i'm
the West 12Jth street police station
last evening on charge Of disorderly
conduct. She was arrested as the re-
suit Of a wrangle with a guard when
she tried to take her pet aboard an

day afternoon.
The girl. who said she was Miss Edna

tried To smuggle the dog aboard the
train when the guard stopped her.
After an argument the girl began to
weep and finally became hysterical,
throwing herself on the platform and,
according TO the guard, kicking him in

the girl when she first appeared on the
nlatform. but they disappeared with

pIioht Of Cuban Patriots Kin
at IsIip Is Discovered Too
Late for Rescue by His
Government.
SUFFERED HALLUCINATI0N
Complained to Mayor, Sent to
Bellevue and Then to Insti-
tuition Without Reveal
ing Identity-Now
Can't Be Found.

Through efforts made by the Cuban
government 10 obtain the release of
Antonio Maceo, son Of General Antonio
Maceo. one Of the leaders Of the last
Cuban insurrection against Spain. in
which he was killed. from the State
lsnp. Long Island, it became known
last night that the young man was
committed 10 that institution on Sep
tember 23, 1912, and also that he es-
oaped from the asylum on June 3. His
present wherea bouts are unknown.
But for the interest taken by his
government in the son of the Cuban
ratriot the plight of the young man
may not have become known. When
he was committed he gave the name OF
Antonio Messon. He said be was
twenty-five years old. He was sent to
the psychopathic ward in Bellevue
Hospital for annoying persons in the
street.
Young Maceo, it was said, had an
hallucination that the people in New
York were calling him niger" He
had been TO the Mayors Office to COM
plain Of this treatment but did not re-
veal his identity. He was sent TO Cen
tral lslip in a depressed. melancholic
condition.
II was a roundabout way that the
discovery was made that Maceo was an
inmate Of the asylum. He wrote a let
ter on March 10 TO the Cuban Consul
in Guatemala City, Guatemala, telling
him Of his plight. Why he took this
means Of notifying his government. in
stead Of writing direct TO Havana, no
one knows.
In this letter he said: II promise
fidelity TO my flag and the precious ISL
and from which I come-Cuba. There
nature is more exuberant and agree
able. and its natural fruits and flowers
in abundance make It the gem Of the
Antilles.
MY father, General Antonio Maceo.
fought intrepidly and with great valor,
and gave his life for the cause of
Cuba"
Maceo added in his letter that he
wanted 10 be released.
The Cuban Consul in Guatemala at
once forwarded the letter to the State
Department at Havana. The Secre-
.sry Of state Of cuba communicated
with Senior Mariana Rocafort. Cuban
Consul General in this city, instructing
him TO obtain the early release Of
Maceo and have him sent TO Cuba,
where he would be taken care of.
Victor Hugo Barranco, special agent
Of the consulate, was sent to Central
lslip yesterday to ask that Maceo be
released in his custody. On arriving
there he was informed by DR.. Smith,
the superintendent. that Maceo had
escaped from the asylum. He has not
been seen since.
The Cuban consulate will now Join
IN the search for the missing man.
