Wants Mcveagh to Testify.
WASHINGTON, Feb. - Acting
Chairman Young of the house com
mittee on expenditures in the treas
ury department said today that he
would ask Secretary Of the Treasury
MacVeagh to testify before the com.
mittee as to the exact meaning OF
treasury order number five.''
Assistant Secretary of the Treas
ury Bailey's explanation makes 1t APP
pear that the new plan of work is a
splendid idea," Young said. but be-
lieve Mr.. MacVeagh should tell us
more about it, in view of Mr.. Spreck-
les sta. ements"
Assistant Secretary Bailey Explains.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Z. Denying
that there was any illegally behind
treasury order number five" and
asserting that Rudolph Spreckles,
the San Francisco banker, had mis-
construed" the order. Assistant Sec,
rotary Of the Treasury Robert O..
Bailey, who signed it, today made
this explanation of the change in
treasury procedure involved:
"The order simply increases the
number of repositories for the govern
ment moneys wi bout materially in
creaisng the fixed balance of nation
al funds in national banks.
Under the old system there were
$50 national repositories, carrying Il
total fixed balance of s4s,000,o0o.
Under treasury order number five the
number of repositories is increased
to $50 and the fixed balance is in.
creased to about $5O,00o,oo0. This
means a decrease in each individual
bank.
"The change was made because we
found that in disbursing through the
sub-treasuries, much detail work was
necessary. Previously nine-tenths oil
the treasury disbursements were
made through the sub-treasuries Un.
der the present system, so percent OF
the disbursements will be made
through repositories and twenty per
cent through the sub-treasuries. This
will permit holders of government
checks all over the country to obtain
cash or deposit credit without hav-
ing to pay exchange, as they did I'M
der the previous system. Any ma
tional bank in the country will ac-
cept government checks for full face
value.
"Mr. spreckles is entirely wrong
in his construction of the new order.

Some of them declared today that
they could see no reason for going
into caucus on the senatorship until
they can learn who the candidates are.
They have called conference for
Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock and
when the caucus meets at 8 o'clock on
that evening they will know what
they intend doing. 1t is predicted
that at least fifteen or twenty demo
Gratis will refuse to be bound by eau
Gus action.
These same democrats are making
all kinds Of trouble over the house
rules which are under discussion.
They claim to see clever plot, on,
the part Of the democrats who put
Mckinley over, to control the proposed
committee on committees and thus
dictate the committee assignments of
! the house. They are planning an al
lance with the progressives to prevent
this.
The progressives will meet in Chi
