Washington, July 2S-Secretary Me Adoo issued statement tonight flat " charging that the decline of govern ment two percent bonds to ninety five and halfAa new low record was que almost wholly to what appears to De campaign Waged with every in dlcation of concerted action on the part of number of influential New ork city banks to cause apprehension ana uneasiness about these bonds in order to help them in their efforts to defeat the currency bill"
 Discrepancy is Covered.
 Banks throughout the country own almost entirely s730 882, 13O of the two percents Almost the entire issue is used as security for national bank notes. At the present price, however. the discrepancy between the market value and the issues of notes against the bonds is covered by what is known as the five percent. redemption fund, deposited by the banks with the treas ury to care for retirements of na- tional bank notes
 Can Report Bonds at Par.
 Secretary NfcAdoo announced it was not his intention to require the banks to charge off the present depreciation below par. but that the banks might continue to put in bonds at par in their statements to the comptroller ot the currency at least until some ma- terial change in conditions should compel the adoption of another course"
 In his statement, Secretary McAdoo declared the two percent were worth par@notwithstanding their rating in the New York market and continued:

REPUBLICANS DISAGREE
 ON WOOL SCHEDULE.
Progressive Element to Support La
 FoIette's Amendment.

Washington. July 28-A division in the ranks of republican senators over the tariff revision fight became appar- ent today when nearly dozen republi-
 cans began series of conferences to
 perfect substitute schedules that will
 be offered to the tariff bill under the leadership of Senators La Toilette and
 Cummins.
 The progressive republican move has borne out the belief of leadfne. senators identified with that faction that they would be unable to support Senator Shoots substitute for the wooden tariff. The Snoot su ubstitute was prepared some time ago and in troduced at the time the democratic tariff bill came back from the finance committee. The progressive republi- cans have practically agreed to center their fight about the La, Toilette substi- tute In the hope that they can carry the balance of the republican party with them and possibly win democrats away from President Wilson's free wool plan.
 Progress on the tariff was slow in the senate today. Prepared speeches were made by Senator Warren, rep1b- llean. and short assaults occurred through6a1t tha afternoon upon specl- fed items which the republicans held to be toe radical reductions from ex- isting law.
 Tl ne pnasreAAiH AiHasrepublica forces go far have shown 10 disposition on the fioer ef the senate to break with their republican assistants. The conferences which began today, however. are ex- peeted to Eoiidify the progressive eie- neHt and to bring about new align ment of the republican forces. Sena- ter La Foilette's cotton and wool sub- stitutes and Senator Cumming metal substitutes were under consideration in the conference today and probably will be supported by the progressives It is expected that substitute sugar tariff similar to that which Senator Bristow succeeded in getting through the senate in the last session of con- gress will have the progressive strength.
