VETS CONTEST FAILS.
Judge Peatross Holds That There
Was no Violation h;r.Sta:atr.

Danville. Va, June 19.-Judge K.
w. Peatross, of Corporation Court,
has handed down an elaborate opin-
ion dismissing the petition of certain
voters who recently instituted con-
test of the vali6ity Of the local OPP
ton election of April 18th. He placed
the costs on the petitioners.
The contention of petitioners was
that The statute authorizing the an
nexation of the town of Neapolls to
Danville, under the terms of which
voters in orth Danville are excluded
from particip patton in liquor elections
in the south, or major portion of the
city. was in violation of the Consti'
tuition, in that it deprived certain
voters of their rights.
The court holds that the Constitu-
ton prescribes no qualifications for
voters except in the matter of voting
for members of the General Assem-
bly and ali offices elective by the
people. The election of April 18th
was not such an election, hence no
voter could have been deprived OF
any right under the Constitution
The opinion, after citin numerous
authorities, concludes thus:
"The law authorizing the election
complained of was valid and tae cleo
ton was held in accordance with 1t.
No one is shown to have been de-
prived of the right to vote nor has
the election been shown to be In
valid. But the court is Of opinion
that it was duly held and was valid,
and that the petition must be dis
missed"
1t is currently reported that cour
sci for petitioners will appeal t.
case

PREPARATION Of
CURRENCY BILL
Congressman Glass Says
Measure Will be Brought
in Next Week.
MORE CHANGES MADE
Bill Provides For Radical Departures
In Existing National Banking Sys-
tenn of Country.

Washington June 19.-The admin
istration's currency bill is again in
fairly complete state, and will be in
:roduced in the House and Senate
next week. This was the statement
made by Chairman Glass, Of the
House Banking and Currency Com
mittee today. He attended another
White House conference last night, at
which eleventh-hour changes were
discussed.
A summary of the approximately
complete bill printed below, shows
that it carries radical changes in the
existing national banking system, in
connection with the creation of the
Federal Reserve board, which will
become virtually the morey-iSsuing
agency of the Government.
The bill provides Tor the establish
n,ent Of federal reserve banks for
furnishing an elastic currency at
fords means for the rediscounting
commercial paper. and the establish
ment of what is claimed will be a
more active government supervisor of
banking.
AS now framed the bill divides the
country into fifteen regional reserve
districts each with a governing
board but all under a central reserve
hank in Washington. This reserve
hoard is 10 be composed of nine
members - three cabinet officers,
three members appointed by the re-
gional reserve associations, probably
bankers, and three members appoint
ed by the President.
Issue of S5O0,O0O,O0O in emergency
currency by the reserve board is au-
thorized in the bill. This is to be a
species of "asset" currency,not based
upon gold reserves, but upon federal,
state and local bonds or CONNER
cial papers, the latter to be approx
ed and limited by the Judgment OF
the reserve board.
Interest upon the emergency cur
rency is to be fixed by the separate
reserve association. 1t is not pro-
r H.
posed that it be uniform in all OF the
fifteen districts.
Membership of all national banks
in the separate reserve associations
is obligatory according to the BILL
and loans upon real estate limited to
30 per cent. of its value and to a pc
,.iod of nine months, are another pro-
posed feature.

TO CALL GENERAL STRIKE.
Miners in New River Field Go Out
Next Week.

Charleston, w. Va, June ia
general strike of the miners of the
New River field included in district
lNo. 90, United Mineworkers OF
America, will be called next week.
Such was the announcement made
last night by Thomas Haggerty, ma
tional board member, who attended a
meeting of the district, and subd's-
trict boards at Beckley today.
The number of miners affected will
be between 5000 and $4,000, depend
ling upon what concessions may be
granted by some of the operators
within the next few days. While the
strike will be in effect generally in
that field, in some instances operators
have granted demands, and these OPP
orators will be protected when the
strike comes.
The board members at yesterdays
meeting at Beckley held the strike in
allegiance but it is Haggerty's opinion
that it will be called by the board
some day next week. The miners,
he declared, are extremely restless
and would likely organize 9 walkout
in case the strike should NOT be called
by the district board.
The New River operators are con-
ferring among thmselves, but have
made no announcement ef their plans.
The coming strike in the New River
field is expected to result in a renewal!
of the strike on Cabin and Paint
Greeks, where an attempt was made
at meetings of the miners to call d
strike last Monday. If the Paint and
Cabin Greek miners follow the ex-
ample of the New River miners the
men on strike will total from $4,000
to $4,000.

Director Joseph E. Ralph, of the
bureau Of engraving and printing, in

that an additional force of 80 girls

This was mal5e necessary, he said, as

Ralph yesterday notified 25 plate
printers that their services will be
dispensed with June 80, there not be-
ing sufficient work in their depart
ment to keep them busy. They may
be taken back at any time when there
is work for them to do. A mass meet
ing of members of the union will be
held this evening to protest against
the action Of Director Ralph.

Vienna, June l9.-The Bulgarian

ed that Servia Immediately evacuate
all Balkan territory in disputable
Turkey
If Servia does not comply with this
demand within one week Bulgaria
will occupy the territory forcibly
with troops.
1t was learned from an authorlata-
tive source here that the Bulgarian
demand, based on the treaty existing
between that country and Servia be-
fore the war against Turkey, amounts
to an ultimatum, and unless Servla
complies there is grave sanger OF
war.
Bulgaria and Servia, with Greece,
agreed to let Russia arbitrate their
differences over disputed territory,
but Bulgaria holes that Servia now
occupies cert.in Bulgarian ground,
about which there can be no dispute.

MEATS SUBJECT
To PURE FOOD LAW
Important Step Towards
Protecting Country's
Supply.
CAN MAKE SEIZURES.
Alleged lnadequacy of Inspection
Law-Unfit and Rotten Meat is
Often Sold.

Washington, June 19.-Believing in
in pure food law enforcement and in
policy of resolving all doubts on
the question Of purity in foods in fa-
vor of the public, think the new pol
icy Of the government which holds
meats and meat products shall be
subject to pure food inspection, will
prove one of the most important
steps yca taken toward protecting
the country's food supply.
Hereafter meat and meat pro-
ducts, regardless of whether they
have been inspected as contemplated
in IT, federal mea; .uspcCtiGg act,
arc to ;.c subject to TIE pure rood
law. This means that if q pure feed
Inspector goes 20 the marietS and
finds meats which are adultef@"ef
nisbl1indcd or in coEdition ,..tit nr
food he can seize it and take the usu-
al proceedings for condemnation and
prosecution.
No end Of evidence has been round
20 prove the inadequacy Of the feder-
al meat inspection. No end of unfit
and rotten meats have been palmed
off on the public, despite this law and
in some cases, with the federal au-
tho.ities winkine at it. Startling
estimony in this respect was laid
sore time ago before the houski
committee on expenditures in the De-
psrtment of Agriculture.
Efforts were made in VAIN under
tie Nelson resolution to get an ~
vestigation Of the charges hat the
meat inspection law was not beng
enforced. and Congressman Nelson
will renew the effort for an lnvestl-
CATION, if the new administration does
rot make It necessary.
It is believed that the decision to
enforce the pure food law against
meats and meat products will compel
the meac inspection service TO DE
more strict. Secretary Houston
will have in the pure food Inspector
constant check on the inspection
system.
The new ruling may play an I'M
portant part in the tariff bilFs con-
sidera.ion. A mooted question IN
connection with the bill is whether
to impose on meats brought in free
| from abroad the same requirements
as 10 purity which the meat inspcc-
ton law imposes on domestic meats.
If the pure food law is applied rig
idlv 20 all meats in interstate COM
merce the shippers of foreign meats
themselves will be obliged 20 confine
their shipments to meats when are
! fit for food purposes.
