Criticism of New Money.

Criticism directed against the attempt to
make a new kind Of paper money without
withdrawing the present national bank
notes or providing against depreci-
alton in value of the per cent gov
eminent bonds which secure these notes
has been very free since the publica-
ton of the proposed measure.
1t is believed this objection Is strong
enough to effect q change in the bill to
meet the views of bankers and bust
ness men.

GALL|NCER HURLS
GAGE Of BATTLE
Promises Prolonged Fight
Over Proposed Currency
Reform Bill.

Senator Gallinger. republican leader OF
the Senate, stated today that he stood
ready. and other senator's would aid him
in the fight, to oppose to the limit the
enactment into law Of the currency bill
In its present form. He declared that he
and other senators would take every par
liamentary advantage which the rules
of the Senate afford to prevent action on
the bill. if they kept Congress here until
the opening of the regular session in De-
cember.
Senator Gallinger was particularly hos
tile to the provision In the currency bill
which he says places the banking and
financial interests of the country largely
under the supervision and control of
board of politically appointed supervisors.
Unless that provision was stricken from
the measure. he declared, 1t could not be
passed at the present session OF Con-
gress.

MINERS WIN WAGE DISPUTE
Umpire Decides Sliding Scale Contro
versy In Their Favor.

Wilkes-Barre, Pa, May 16.-Charle:
P. NeiH, former United States com
missioner of labor, named as umpire
to decide cases on which the miners
conciliation board was deadlocked
gave decisions in four cases, three o
them victories for the men.
The most important gives the work
ers of the anthracite field the sliding
scale of 7 per cent for the month o.
March, 1912, which means the distri
button of over a half million dollars
in surplus wages.
The miners claimed that they were
entitled to the sliding scale in Apri
on the March earnings. The operators
contended that the men could not col
lect any sliding scale percentage be
cause they were idle in April.
In deciding the case of the miners
against the Scranton Coal company
which never paid any sliding scale
the umpire declares the new agree
ment awards the men of that colliery
a fat 10 per cent advance instead o.
the per cent which. the company has
been paying.
In the case of the engineers anf
patchers of the GAINESVILLE mines, a
Hazleton, the umpire decides that {
change from locomotive to motor cars
cannot reduce the wage scale, and he
directs the company to pay the regu
lar rates.
The Nottingham laborers of the lie
high & Wilkes-Barre mine failed II
make out case and they are forced tt
suffer slight cut in wages by the de
cree of the referee.

PRESIDENT DRAFTS :
REPLY TO JAPANESE
Note to Be Placed Before
the Cabinet

washington. May 16. - President
Wilson conferred with Secretary OF
State Bryan this morning to draft a
reply to the rotest by Japan against
the California alien land bill which
Governor Johnson has announced he
will sign.
The note will be submitted to the
cabinet and then delivered to Wis,
count Chinda, the Japanese ambassa
dor. The indications are that the atti
tude of the federal government toward
the legislation itself, as well as the
question of discrimination raised by
Japan, will be fully defined.
Governor Johnson's decision to sign
the bill was unoficially communicated
t, Viscount Chinda.
When the ambassador has received
Secretary Bryans formal communica
ton he will communicate it to the for
eign Office at Toxic and receive in
structions for rejoinder, so that prob
ably a week will elapse before the ne
gotiations can move another step.
Interest has been excited by Cover
nor sJohnson's quotation of that part
of the California law which appears to
limit his action, so far as it recognizes
Japanese rights to the existing treaty
of 1911, and there is some speculation
as to whether that was intended to
foreshadow refusal on the part of
the California authorities to be bound
by the stipulation of any treaty tha'
may hereafter be negotiated between
the United States and Japan that
would appear to be in conflict with the
provisions of the new law.
The fact that Governor Johnson has
not actually signed the bill is regard
ed as holding the door open to a las
word from the administration If ii
should desire to communicate further
with him before the final act of ap
proval.
There is a belief in some quarters
that the president may suggest to the
Japanese ambassador that teh admin
istration is willing to submit the ques-
ton to The Hague for arbitration.

FRAMING MONEY
REVISION BILL
President Expects II Finished
Within Ten Days.
PROVISIONS OF THE MEASURE
1t Will Garry Four General Sections,
But No Guarantee by Government Of
Bank Deposts,

1t Will Garry Four General Sections,
But No Guarantee by Government OF
Bank Deposits.
Washington, May 16. = President
Wilson has sought expert, academic
assistance for the drafting of an ad
ministration currency revision bill.
He has chosen a professor OF pOliti
cal economy in one of the largest
eastern universities, whose name is
withheld, to be the actual author OF
the measure, and the work of drafting
it is now going on.
The president expects the bill will
have been finished and put in his
hands within a week or ten days for
informal submission to the chairman
of the currency committees OF the
house and the senate and the cabinet
members who are being consulted.
The president acknowledged that a
general agreement had been reached
between himself and the congressional
leaders as to the subject matter OF
the reforms to be attempted in this
bill.
The fact that the president had ask
ed for Mr.. Bryan's views on the rough
draft of the bill which was submitted
by Mr. Glass last week has not been
generally known. 1t has been authori
tatively stated, however, that MI
Bryan, whose platform in 1908 called
for a government guarantee of bank
deposits, has been asked to express
himself on the needs of currency re
form at this later date. The president
himself, though, has removed the guar
antee OF deposits from the range oi
possibilities for the bill by declaring
that it was something that had no par
in a real currency revision measure.
From what has already been learned
it is believed the decision has been
reached to present to congress bill
which will carry four general provis
ions. They are:
IA regional reserve system in
stead of the central system condemned
by the national platform.
2-The gradual substitution. of q
currency secured by short time com
mercial paper of the highest grade:
for the present bond secured nationa
bank notes.
3.-The adoption of the old Demo
cratic pledge for the selection of gov
ernment repositories on a basis OF
competitive bidding
"A thorough revision of the ad
ministrative features OF the national
bahk act, with the view OF reconcildBa {
these portions of the law with the new
conditions which will arrive from TIE
operation of the law.
It is understood that some of the
amendments covered by the last sec
ton will affect the concentration Of
the reserve. 1t, is understood that the
plan being considered by the president
is to substitute for the present per
cent securities bearing interest at 8
per cent.
President Wilson, it is understood
has submitted these rough plans tc
his chosen academicion, with the in
struction that they be formulated into
bill.
