 Cheek Reckless Surgery.

 Surgeons who operate for appcn- dicitis will be compelled to submit the appendix after the operation, and if it proves to be perfectly sound in wind and limb, no fee may be charged, and the doctor will be liable to fine and Imprisonment.
 The amendment prescribes a fine of not less than $5000 nor more than $i0,000, and Imprisonment of not less than one year nor more than ten years, or fine and imprisonment both.

"MONEY SYSTEM IS
 MENACE TO COUNTRY
So Says President George M. Reynolds of Continental and Com mercial Bank of Chicago Be-
 fore the Committee.

Washington, Jan. t6.-That the present concentration of money and credit is potential menace to the country" was asserted before the house money trust committee today by George fl. Reynolds, president of the Continental and Commercial Bank of Chicago. President Reynolds said that he knew of the trend to- ward concentration Of money and credits" and that he thought it a dangerous thing.
 'I am opposed to the concentra- tion of any sort of power," he said "I believe that concentration to the point it has already gone is a me mace. In saying that I do not wish to sit in judgment on the men who hold that power"
 Mir. Reynolds said that he was op- posed to the principle of interlock- ing directors in potentially compet- ing concerns and, that he had ad- hered to that principle throughout his banking career.
 MT. Reynolds could not make any specific recommendation as to remedying the concentration of money and. credits, but he was sure the prevention of interlocking dlrec- tors in competing concerns would have a good effect. In conclusion Mir. Reynolds said he believed that competition was not dead" but he believed banking would be improved by a return to competitive condi- tions.
 MT. Reynolds said he would ap- prove of law giving minority stockholders in national banks the right to representation on the board of directors and would approve law incorporating clearing houses SC long as it did not interfere with the free conduct of business.
 q am in favor of utmost regula- tions and publicity" he said.

!Clemenceau Gives Insult.

Versailles, Jan. 17.-Premier Ray mond Poincare was insulted by for mer Premier George Clemenceau at the opening of the national con- gress of delegates, for the election of a president of the republic, this morning.
 Premier Poincare has named the minitser of justice and the minister of finance to act as his seconds, and to arrange for a duel with Monsieur Clemenceau.
 The incident arose out of letter alleged to have been sent by Clem- enceau to Premier Poincare. Few of the details are known, but the in- suit is said to have been of an ag- gravated order.
 The opening of the assembly was interrupted by a member of the Conservative party, who cried:
 We protest against the election of a president by parliament, in- stead of by the people,"
 Then came a shout from Social ist deputy, Down with the em- pire," and the shouting of the Re- publican reply, Long live the re- public" added to the confusion, which lasted some time. Order, however, was gradually restored.
 A stranger, who was stopped al the entrance to the palace, four ished revolver, and was placed under arrest. Several persons sus- pected of intentions to precipitate trouble and confusion were also jailed.
 More than 2000 policemen are on duty in the city, large number of them being stationed in the vicinity of the palace.
 Gets Big Salary.
 The president of the French re- public receives an annual salary of $i20,000 and an equal sum foR ex- penses and representations. Under the terms of the constitution he promulgates the laws voted by both chambers, and insures their execu- tlOh. liC ildS q iiliiltCu NCl pOWCl but it requires only mere major ity vote to pass any law over the presidents veto. The president se- lects the ministry, but, as matter of fact, he is compelled to select the men whom the leaders of the ruling party have agreed upon be- forehand. He appoints to all civil and military posts, has the right of individual pardon, and is responsi- ble only in case of high treason. The president concludes treaties with foreign powers, but cannot de- clare war without the previous as- sent of both chambers. Every act of the president has to be counter signed by a minister. The minis ters are not responsible to him, but to the chambers. With the consent of the senate he can dissolve the chamber of deputies and order 8 new election. Finally, the presi- dent has the right to create new of fees by executive decree, but the chambers may withhold appropria- tions for the salaries and expenses of these offices.
