At the National Capital

" HE senate lobby investigating

clal committee. which consisted Of Sem
utOrs Overnnn of North Carolina,
chairman, Reed of Missouri and Walsh
OF Montana, Democrats, and Senators
Cummins of Iowa and Nelson of Min

The questions which each senator
was called on to answer covered every
phase OF the lobby investigation. Each
senator was expected to divulge all In
formation pertaining to his business, IL
1t In any way is related to the tariff
question. The special committee was
appointed by the senate following
statement made by President Wilson
in which the president charged that IN
insidlous lobby was in existence in
Washington with the ultimate aim OF
defeating the Democratic tariff bill.
Likewise the senators We're called on
to make known the names Of any per-
son or persons who had in any way
used influence in an effort to defeat
certain schedules in the Underwood
bill. They We're asked to give any
other information in their possession to
aid the committee to accomplish its
purpose of thoroughly probing the ex-
stence or nonexistcnce Of the lobby.
While the various senators We're being
examined and i'm the course of their
testimony other names were mentioned

OUTLOOK GOOD
In an Interview Sir George
PaiSh Is ReaSSurinu.

In an interview given by Sir George
Paish the well known editor of The
Statist, of London, TO The Tribune. yes
terday, the foreign situation was touched
on particularly. Replying to a question
relative to the monetary situation abroad
Sir George was optimistic and said that
there is every reason for Improvement
and very few reasons for the development
OF any adverse factors during the com
ing months. The strengthening OF cash
reserves by the leading financial institu-
lions of the Old World and the lessening
of commercial requirements, due to a
slowing down OF trade and industry. af-
ford an ample stock OF money to meet
all requirements.
The situation will be made much easier
after the bringing out of the French loan.
which will probably occur about the first
of the year, later to be followed by Bal
kan loans. which will provide for the re-
endorsement of French bankers who have
made advances in anticipation Of per-
manent loans. He believes that following
these transactions confidence will be re-
stored TO a marked extent on the Cont
nent. and there will be a release of the
boarded cash that accumulated during
the period Of the Balkan war. Higher
rates for money probably will prevail
next year, owing to the extensive financ-
ing to be done, but the situation will not
be attended with any unhealthy symp-
toms. The logical hardening tendency of
money will result from the requirements
for a higher average range of prices in
commodities to meet the readjusted costs
of living
The only weak spot in the foreign situ-
alton at present is Austria Hungary,
which has been severely over-extended.
The gold outlook is decidedly encouraging.
as The Statist" editor sees II. The
strong reserve position of the Bank OF
England the new policy of the joint
stock banks of England to keep good
gold reserves as a protective measure In
support of the Bank OF Englands require
ments, the prospect of lessened require
ments by India for next year, and the
fact that the Imperial Bank OF Germany
has almost reached the limit of desired
gold reserve after more than year OF
constant effort, all contribute to a de-
cidedly easier feeling regarding the avail
able gold supply, and give cheerful out
look for some time to come.
