without opposition in the House to-day

mously reported from the Ways and
Means Committee.
The first measure amends the act OF 1913
by providing that whenever opium is
found 10 the possession of any dealer 1t
is presumed TO have been imported sub
sequent TO the exclusion act, and the bur
den Of proof shall be upon the possessor.
The bill also prohibits. under drastic PEN
alties. secret transportation on steamship

provlso is that smoking opium shall not

the provisions are subject TO fine not
exceeding $500, or Imprisonment not eX-
ceedlng two years. or both.
A second bill provides for the registra-
ton with internal revenue collectors for
the respective districts OF all persons who
handle in any way opium or cocoa leaves

mitted. but a record OF sales must be

Administration Measure Intro
duCed in Both Houses Would
Refund 2 Per Cent Bonds.
TWENTY YEARS FOR CHANGE
Emergency Issue of $500, 000,-
600 Treasury Notes To Be
Proportionately Increased
to Care for Situation.
From The Tribune Bureau. ]


Washington, June 26.-The administra-
ton currency BILL again modified and
now providing for the refunding OF the
2 per cent bonds and the retirement Of
existing bank note circulation based
thereon, was introduced in the House
late to-day by Chairman Glass of the
Banking and Currency Committee and in
the Senate by Senator owen. No change
was made, nor is one now intended, in
the composition of the Federal Reserve
Board.
Overtures made by the bankers TO Sc
cure representation on the board have
been rejected. and the Reserve Board
will be a government-controlle body OF
seven members In the Senate Mr.. Cum
Minis contemplates proposing an amend
ment which would make the board an
elective body.
In accordance with the understanding.
said 10 have been reached at the White
House conferences yesterday, the modi-
fed currency bill shows the following i'm
the measure to-day:
The existing banknote circulation is TO
be retired gradually during the next
twenty years, and the per cent bonds,
on which such circulation is largely
based, are To be exchanged for per
cents without the circulation privilege.
Retirement Of the present national bank
circulation is mandatory by the expifa-
tion OF the twenty years. This provision
was in the original draft Of the Glass
bill. but WAS eliminated last week. prior
TO the publication of the text OF the bill.
The emergency issue OF $4,000, coo in
Treasury notes is TO be increased in pro-
portion to care for tho retirement OF ma
tlOnal bank notes, Of which there are
now outstanding approximately 500. 10000
In the first draft OF the bill the Federal
Reserve Board was authorized 10 Ak the
discount rates for the regional reserves
AS amended the regional reserves take
the initiative, but the rate must be ap-
proved by the Federal Reserve Bosrd.
a change was also made in the section
relating 20 the reserves Of country banks.
which were originally required to keep
per cent in their own vaults. per cent
with the regional reserve banks and 5 per
cent additional in either place. The bill,
as changed. gives the reserve board au-
thority to say where this per cent ad-
ditonal shall be kept.
The most radical change made to-day
in the frequently modified bill was the
reinsertion OF the section providing for
the retirement OF the existing banknots
circulation and the exchange OF the 2
per cent bonds. The section as now
written into the bill provides:
Upon application. the Secretary OF the
Treasury shall exchange the ? per
centum bonds OF the United States bear
ing the circulation privilege heretofore
deposited by any national banking asso-
citation with the Treasurer OF the United
States as security for circulating notes
for per centum bonds Of the United
states without the circulating privilege.

LINCOLN, Neb., March 21.-

old, need entertain no fears for his
we'll being, for the city Of Lincoln
has appropriated $25 a week for his
care until he is old enough to be turn
ed over to charitable institution.
Julius Caesar was named SO because
1t was necessary to resort to the Cae-

operation was too severe for his moth
er, delicate woman and she died
without seeing him.
There is no baby incubator in Lin
coin and physicians have improvissd
one out Of basket with cotton padded
sides. Under the basket is small

tors hope to keep julius Caesar alive
till he gains more strength. He
weighed trifle over three pounds At
birth and has gained only half .
pound in ten days.
