of public confidence in credit. For sew

activity has led to very great demand
for money throughout the entire world.

test to furnish readily the credit which
this large business extension has made
necessary.
THE end of the Balkan-Turkish war.
with the dissipation of fear, which has
hung over the civilized world like black

much to brighten the general outlook.
The collapse of the Mexican insurrection.

PROBE OF INDIAN
SERVICE IS PLANNED
Senator Townsend of Michigan Intro
duces Resolution Calling for
Investigation.

The resolution for general investiga-
ton of the Indian Service and conditions
on all Indian reservations was adopted
by the Senate Committee on Indian
Affairs yesterday. The committee will
summon witnesses from the Indian Blu
reau and from among those personally
familiar with conditions on Indian res
ervations.
If the resolution be adopted by the Sem
ate, members of the committee intend also
to visit the reservations to acquire first
hand information. Senator Townsend Of
Michigan suggested the investigation and
said if it were undertaken he would not
flibuster against the appropriation bill
brought over from last session.
An investigation of the Indian Service
was made by the House last year, and
resulted indirectly in the resignation Of
Robert G. Valentine as Commissioner.
