finaneier of prominence and 1t was not
difficult for young Morgan to get a
start in the business His first exper-
fence was IN the London house of Nor

and Fisk for the possession of the Al

a member of the banking firm of Drex-
Ell, Morgan & Co. which later became
j. p. Morgan & Co, the largest private
financial institution IN the world.

Saratoga Chips made with
CottoIene are never greasy,
as are those made with lard.
The reason for this is that
cotfoIene heats to about 100
degrees higher than either
butter or lard, without burn
ing, quickly forming a crisp
coating which excludes the
fat. Your chips, therefore,
are crisp, dry and appetizing.

PLAN BATTLE FOR
ILLINOIS DITCH
Commissioners Gather Evidence
to Force Favorable Action
by the State.

Peoria, H., Aug. 23.-On a mission
which means either the immediate
opening and widening of the Illinois
Michigan canal or its confiscation by
the government, the new democratic
state canal commission reached Peoria
yesterday in the steamer Aeolus and
proceeded southwark.
For the first time in the history of
the ''tadpole ditch" this state commits
sion has the backing of the war depart
ment in its efforts to raise injunctions
of ten years standing which prevent
the improvement and even the main
tenance of the canal. The payment to
the commission of salaries also is at
issue.
The visitors had just returned from
Washington. They include S. NJ. Mar
shall of Ipava, president, who succeed
ed Walter Rosenfield; H. P. Dwyer of
Minooka, treasurer, succeeding Chas.
F. Anderson of Princeton; w. L. Sack
EFT of Morris, secretary; Walter Pan
neck of LaSalle, attorney, who sue
ceeded William Meese of Rock Island;
Supt. Leon Macdonald and w. A. An
derson of Ottawa.
The party left Joliet on Tuesday,
and the new democratic members were
having their first look at the canal
district, which embraces the territory
from Joliet to Copperas creek, twenty
six miles below this city.
Their principal object is the prepa-
ration of evidence to be submitted be-
fore the supreme court hearing at
Springfield in October on the dissolu-
ton of two injunctions which now re-
strain the commission from expanding
any money on the canal. The first
injunction was obtained in 1903 by
member of the legislature. 1t prevent,
ed the expenditure of any state ap.
preparations on the canal in anyway
Another appropriation of $4,000 was
granted last year, and again Judge
Burt, this time as a private citizen
secured an injunction, about the first
of July to prevent any part of this
$4,000 being expended on the ditch.
The new commission took the mat
ter to Washington on the grounds that
the original canal grant of 1927 requir
ed the canal to be forever kept oper
and free to federal craft. This gram
carried with it penalty of forfeiture
to the government of the canal prop
erty in event the ditch was not KEEP
open and well maintained. The mat
ter was placed before Gen. BiXby O.

He took it Immediately to the secre
tary of var with recommendation tina

that the injunctioEs be lifted be con

SUPPORTS
CURRENCY DRAFT
Advocacy Of Interlocking Direc-
torates Blow to the In
surgents."

Washington, D. c., Aug. 23.-Sup-
porters of the administration currency
bill scored an important victory in the
house democratic caucus yesterday
when they brought to their aid an I'M
qualified Endorsement of the measure
from Secretary Bryan and defeated
the proposed "insurgent" amendments
that would have prohibited interlock,
ing directorates in national or state
banks Incorporated under the pro
posed law.
Secretary Bryan, in a letter address
ed to Chairman Garter Glass Of the
currehcy committee, approved the bill
as it stands, declaring President VIII
son had recognized fundamental
rights Of popular control in its pro-
visions.
He asserted that the plank of the
democratic platform against inter
locking directorates was aimed chiefly
at trusts and he urged democrats to
stand by the president" and not to
load down the currency bill with any
amendments that might endanger its
early passage.
Mr.. Bryan's action was bitterly de-
nounced by those who supported the
amendments, some of them accusing
him of having deserted the progressive
wing of the party for that of reaction.
Fortified with the backing of one
of the trainers Of the Baltimore plat
form Representatives Glass and Under.
wood met the demand for an amend
ment to prohibit interlocking direc-
torates with a counter proposal that
the democrats of the house take up gen.
eral legislation against interlocking
directorates at the next session.
A resolution by Representative I'm
derwood adopted by vote of 100 10
so referred the entire subject to the
democratic members OF the judiciary
committee OF the house and directed
them to bring in a bill at the next
session OF congress that would prevent
interiocking directories of all kinds.
Administration leaders last night said
the large vote that supported the Tn.
derwood motion and the hearty ap
prevail that greeted Secretary Bryan's
Endorsement of the bill assured the ap-
prevail Of the complete Glass bin with
but little change. There remain sew.
eral important amendments to be con.
sidered, but it was declared that the

only important modification would be
change to make it clear that agri-
cultural paper will be given the same
credit as commercial or industrial
paper.
The amendment over which the
fight waged throughout the day had
been offered by Representative Medley
gent members of the banking and cur
rency committee.
1t was not until near the close of the
session that Chairman Glass, after de-
claring that President Wilson did not
want such an amendment incorporated
in the bill, brought forth the Bryan let
ter. He also produced a letter adj
dressed TO him by Samuel Untermyer,
who was counsel for the Pujo money
trust committee, saying he did not be-
lieve the inter.ocking directorate pro-
vision should be in the currency bill.
In his letter Secretary Bryan de-
clared that for many years he had ad-
vocated a law preventing duplicating
of directorates.
While the principle applies to
banks as well as to trusts-although,
I'think, in a lesser degree"-the secre-
tary wrote, the plan has been con-
sidered mainly as means of dealing
with the trust evil. Competition can.
not be effectively prevented where the
same men act as directors of compel
ing companies.
Il am as much in favor of the rem
edy now as l was when / began to ad-
vocate it; in fact, more so, because
recently disclosures have given fur
Their proof Of the employment of this
means Of eliminating competition; but
l do not think it. wise to make 1t part
of the pending currency bill.
THE bill embodies certain provis-
ions of great importance and is, be-
lieve, fundamentally sound. The pro-
vision in regard to the government
issue of the notes to be loaned to the
banks is the first triumph of the peo-
pie in connection with currency legis-
lation in a generation. 1t is hard to
over-estimate the value of this feature
of the bill.
in the second place, the bill pro-
vides for government control of the
issue of this money. This is another
distinct triumph for the people, one
without which the government issue
of the money would be largely a bar
rem victory.
The third provision in this bill,
which l regard as OF the first i'm
portance, is the one permitting state
banks to share with national banks
the advantages Of the currency system
proposed"
