D|CTMENTS At

Three Railways Are Probably In.
cIuded in Bills.

Warrants issued on indictments
returned by the Goodhue county
grand jury, sitting at Red Wing,
charging violations of the 2-cent rate
law will be served on the railroads
entering the county. Secret bills
were returned by the inquisitorial
body before adjournment. The names
of the defendants were not made pub.
lie. The roads entering the county
and which were concerned in the in.
vestigation are the Chicago Great
Western, the Northwestern and the
st. Paul.
Members of the jury and county Of.
fcials declined to say whether the in
dictments named merely the railroads
or whether certain officials and EN-.
ployes also would be brought into
court. The maximum penalty provides
for a term of Imprisonment.
The action Of the grand jury Is the
outcome of Judge Albert Johnson's in
structions to the jury early in the
month to investigate alleged viola
tons of the rate law.
The grand jury reconvened Monday
Judge Johnson renewed his demand
for indictments if it was found the
rate law had been violated. He told
the jury that, although certain state
and county officials had been enjoined
the state itself had not been enjoined
and should not be enjoined.
Judge w. H. Sanborn declined tc
answer a question as to whether the
action of the Goodhue county grand
jury in indicting the. railroads fol
disobeying the railroad rate law OF
1907 rendered either the grand jury
or Judge Albert Johnson liable fol
contempt of court to the United
States circuit court of appeals.

CURRENCY BILL
IS INTRODUCED
Measure Makes Its Appearance
in Both Houses.
BANKERS SECURE CONCESSION
Three Sections Which Were Stricken
Out Of Original Draft Have
Been Reinserted.

Washington, June 27.-The admin
istration currency bill was introduced
in the house and senate. AS the bill
finally appears when laid before con-
gress It contains the three sections
which were stricken out of the original
draft and which provide for the grad
ual retirement of the national bank
circulation and the refunding of the 2
per cent United States bonds and the
substitution therefor per cents with
out circulation privileges.
This is the most important change
that has been made in the bill and it
represents a considerable concession
to the bankers, who insisted that any
revision of the currency system
should contain provision taking care
of the per cent bonds now deposited
as basis for the national bank cir
culation.
The banks obtained another impor.
tant concession in regard to the pow
er of the federal reserve association to
fix the rate of discount for the federal
reserve banks. The bankers of the
country objected to this provision and
It has been changed so that the re.
serve banks themselves now have the
power of fixing a. minimum rate of dis.
count, subject to review by the fed.
eral reserve board.
There has also been a change in re
gard to the reserves to be maintained
by the country banks. Under the bill
as formerly drawn the country banks
were to maintain a reserve equal to
Is per cent of the aggregate amount
of their deposits.
Rules Governing Reserve.
Such reserve must consist of per
cent of lawful money, held actually
In their own vaults, and per cent
with the district federal reserve bank.
The remainder of the Is per cent re-
serve for thirty-six months after the
inauguration of the new system may
consist of balances due to national
bank in reserve or central reserve
cities as now defined by law After
the thirty-six months, however, the
remainder of the IS per cent were
10 consist either of lawful money in
the banks own vaults or on balances
on deposit with the federal reserve
bank in it's district, or both
While the amount of the reserves
for country banks remains the same
the following proviso has been added
to the section:
Provided that the federal reserve
board may, in it's discretion, permit
said remainder of Is per centum re-
serve required of country hanks to
consist of balances on deposit with
any bank in reserve or central re-
serve city, as defined by law
In regard to the power of the presi
dent over the federal reserve board
Mr.. Wilson and his advisers, how
ever, have yielded nothing. The
board still consists of seven mem
bers, all of whom are to be appointed
either directly or indirectly by the
president.
Under the section of the bill which
has been restored the government
can issue not only the $5OO,O0O,OOO O.
treasury notes authorized in the bill
in it's original form, but also add
tional notes in an amount equal tt
the amount of national bank note
retired.

board, is unconstitutional.
AS result of this decision the rail.
roads, in an agreement signed by
their representatives, stipulated they
would pay promptly al just claims
made directly to them and the corn.
