BRYAN OBJECTS TO
DETAILING EXPENSES

but Thinks Public Should Not Ask
Too Much Information

Washington, D. c.. Sept. 24-Secre-
tary Bryan says ne doesn't mind dis
eussing his resources of income. but
he thinks it is going a little too far

account of his private expenses. A
speech by senator MARITIME defending
the secretary's> Chautauqua lecturing.
in which the senator said Mr. Bryan
was supporting mission students in
Japan. brought many inquiries:
The secretary issued this statement:
I'VE are not educating any bows in
Japan. A Japanese student lived with
US for about five years, but returned
to Japan in 1904. Senator Marines re-
marks probably refer to students whom
we have assisted in other parts of
Asia, but I do not consider it neces-
sary to discuss the matter. I have
discussed the resources of my income.
but I am not yet convinced that the
public requires me to discuss each con
tribution which see fit to make to a.
worthy cause
''I may add that I answer these ques-
lions with reluctance and with the feel
ing that newspapers and those who
ask questions through them, ask more
as a matter of curiosity than a wish
to know my private affairs"

Mexico City, November 2S.-Like
Gen. Jose Gonzales Salas after the
battle of Rellano in March, 1912, Gen.
Antonio Rabago, military governor of
the state of Tamaulipas, killed him
self after losing Victoria, the capital.
The suicide of General Rabago is not
admitted by the government, but the
news is contained in private tele-
gram to his relatives here, who do not
question its authenticity.
General Rabago, as military gov
ernor, was responsible for the garri-
son when Victoria was attacked by
the rebels on November II.
1t was not until this morning that
the newspapers of the Mexican CAPT
tai published any intimation that Vic
toria had been captured. General
Rabago, it was stated, had evacuated
the city.
The private message fails to give de-
tails of Rabago's death. Among the in
cidents connected with the capture OF
Victoria by the rebels one is related
of the execution OF Capt. Thobas Jamez
He was told that his life would be
spared IL he foreswore the government.
He refused and was given an hour for
meditation. When the hour had elapsed

No Restricting of Credit to

NO HARDSHTPS
TO BE IMPOSED
Secretary of Treasury Issues State
ment on SituatiOn-Attitude of
Department to Be at All
Times Helpful

Washington, November 2s.-Secretary
McAdoo issued a statement tonight de-
claring that banks throughout the country
reported to be restricting credits in order
to meet the provisions of the expected
currency law are making a mistake He
announced that the resources of the treas
ury Will be at the disposal of the banks
to aid them in complying with the new
law when it is put on the statute books.
The statement in part said:
THE secretary expressed the conviction
that the new law will impose no hard
ship on the banks and that the trans
fers of capital and reserves to the pro-
posed federal reserve banks will be ac-
eomplished with little or no ineonven-
ience to the banks and to general BUSH
ness.
Available Resources
The secretary said that the treasury
department had large available resources
at it's command; that he should not hes
itate to use them for the purpose of aid
ing the banks to comply with the new law
and that in his opinion the banks could
with perfect safety proceed with the
granting of accommodations to their Gus
toners in the normal and usual way.
"fhe secretary said that he did not,
of course, assume to advise the banks
ne ohiN wanted them and the business
public to know that there is no round
for apprehension and that the attitude
of the treasury department is to he help
full and that he thought it could be eff
fectively helpful. He said that If any
banks are laborng under the impression
that the new law win neeessitatc r. oc-
easion a restriction of credits they are
controlled by error, as no such thing will
result.
The secretary stated that up to date
the banks had called upon the treasury
for only $34 SCI 900 for crop movement pur-
poses; that these deposits We're, under
the arrangements, to be, returned in four
installments, beginning December Is and
ending March /.
The secretary said that he would con-
sider favorahly and upon it's merits the
application of any national bank holding
crop moving deposits for postponement
| of 80 days of the time for beginning re-
! payments, so that payments may CONF
menee on January 10, 1911 instead of De-
