WOULD END DAY LOANS
Consolidated Exchange Presi-
dent Offers Plan.

President de Aguero OF the Consoli-
dated Stock Exchange has proposed
plan TO meet the situation created by
the clearance loan" decision OF the
United States Supreme court against
the National city Bank In the Hooking
pool cases The system In vogue on the
Consolidated at present is daily clear
ances and payments of differences. with
deliveries on Monday and Thursday.
1t is suggested by Mr.. de Aguero that
this system could be extended 10 make
deliveries twice month. with daily
clearances and payment Of differences
so thai all loans OF stocks between
brokers could be brought TO the closing
or settling price each night; stocks sold
each day to be borrowed for delivery
and stocks bought each day to be loaned
at the selling, price: loans TO be called
or returned at the pleasure OF the con
tracing parties, but unless renewed AT
Interest rates, to be returnable upon the
sheet on the next delivery day
AT the end Of the two weeks period,
he said "the Clearing House would give
out the names Of the ultimate deliNerer
or ultimate receiver and deliveries
would then be effected. Thus delivery
day would be every alternate Monday.
The daily settlements would keep the
stock business on cash basis. as al
present, and the fortnightly delivery
would eliminate the necessity Tor day
loans"

resentation of the banks in the director
ates of the regional reserve banks was al
tered to allow directors elected by the
member banks to be directors or ofilcers
Of other financial institutions.
Farm loans as an investment for ma
tional banks would be authorized in an
amendment written into the Republican
draft. Senator Hitchcock and the minor
ity members also amended the bill TO
provide that national banks may invest
one third Of their time deposits in five
wear farm mortgages based on 80 per
cent of the value OF the land mortgaged
The Republicans struck out OF the
House bill the requirement that national
banks must segregate the capital and as
sets behind all funds held as savings ac-
counts The bank examination section
OF the bill was revised, the committee
providing that bank examiners shall be
placed on salary o. from $4,000 TO $1,000
a year, thus eliminating the fee system.
The Republicans and Senator Hitchcock
also adopted change providing that
banks need deposit only per cent re-
serve when the new system becomes ef-
fective, an additional / per cent TO be
deposited each six months until the en-
tire reserve OF per cent has been pro-
Vided for.

OBJECT TO WILSON
ATTENDING MASS
Presence at Thanksgiving Service
Exploited to Glorify Catholic
Church. PrOtestants Say.

Washington, Nov. lS.-Protestant clergy
men of the capital have launched a protest
against the official atmosphere they CON
tend Is thrown about the annual ran
American Thanksgiving mass here In 81
Patricks Church, WHICH generally is at
tended by the President, members OF the
Cabinet. Justices Of the Supreme Court,
the diplomatic corps and other dignitaries'
President Wilson has accepted an invita-
tion to attend this year.
The Rev. DR.. Il. III. Mckim, former
president of the Episcopal House Of Depu-
ties. is the author OF resolution adopted
to-day by the Episcopal. Lutheran, Baptist
and Disciples OF Christ clergy, and which
will be considered by the Presbyterian
clergymen on Monday. The resolution
says:
THE attendance OF our Chief Magistrate
and members Of his Cabinet year after
year has been made use OF to give color
to the Roman claim that the service Is
now the official celebration of Thanksgiv-
ing Day in our national capital This fact
has been understood in the United States
and abroad TO give the Roman Catholic
Church a prestige and pre-eminence over
ali other churches. Every effort Is made
by the Roman hierarchy to give this Ro-
man mass the color of an official function.
I'VE protest against the attempt to con-
vert our national Thanksgiving Day into
Roman Catholic festival In service
entirely out OF harmony with the history
Of the genius Of our country and the spirit
and purpose OF the day.
I'VE desire to give voice TO the wide
spread feeling OF Indignation among mill
ions OF Protestants of America against the
efforts OF the Roman press and the Ro-
man hierarchy to exploit the presence OF
our Chief Magistrate and some Of his
Cabinet (Which we are convinced has only
been intended as an act OF courtesy and
good wild for the purpose OF glorifying
the Roman Catholic Church and giving
this service an official characterization II
does not and cannot possess"

COAL CARRYING
COSTS COMPUTED
Anthracite Lines Officials Tell
Interstate Commission Of
Handling Methods.

Philadelphia, Nov 1S-Attorneys for the
Interstate Commerce Commission who are
conducting the inquiry into the rates and
practices OF the anthracite coal carrying
railroads delved deep to-day into the sub
ject OF transportation facilities Having
in mind the merits OF the complaints Of
Independent coal shippers that the rates
charged by the roads are unreasonaby
high. the examiners sought to determine
what facilities were provided for the
transportation OF coal. as compared with
other commodities.
Operating officials OF the Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western. the Lehigh Val
ley and the New York Ontario & West
ern described the methods OF concentrat-
ing coal at the mines. the movement OF
coal trains to tide water. the tonnage
handled the grades encountered and the
terminal facilities.
The information obtained will be used
by the commission as the basis for COM
pairing coal rates and general merchandise
rates In connection with the services rem
dered and the profits derived in each case.
E. NJ. Rine. general superintendent OF
the Delaware. Lackawanna & Western
on whose lines the Plymouth company's
mines are located. admitted that his COM
pany did not supply crews to run their
cars into the Plymouth company's break
ers. The latter's counsel brought this
point out as proof that they were en-
titled TO lower rates because OF the
necessity OF performing this service
themselves.

The steering committee will decide on
Thursday whether a caucus shall be held
on the currency bill. Senators Hitchcock
and Newlands are the only Democrats
who have expressed dissatisfaction with
the administration measure. The former
will not go into caucus on the currency
question and Senator Newlands will prob
ably support the administration Dill IN

plished by a party conference except TO
map out a definite programme of action.

rency bill itself ii will delay legislation
still further.
The Republican faction of the Banking
and Currency Committee completed its
first draft OF the revised bill tonight.
The Democratic faction went over in de-
tail the provision for the mobilization of
reserves They adopted a change that
would permit local banks TO deposit half
OF the required reserve in the regional
bank in the form OF commercial paper
instead OF requiring the entire deposit to
be in cash.

the Federal Reserve Board to make the

day TO discuss the question of adlournins
Congress and to plot the course 10 DE ioi-
lowed in putting through the currency
bill. No decision was reached because OF
the absence Of Senators owen and OGor-
man. The committee will meet again on
Thursday.
Democratic leaders are hesitating over
the proposition TO adjourn to enable the
members OF both houses TO make flying
trims homeward before the grind OF the
regular session begins and to collect the
mileage allowance provided by the gov
ernment. Senator Kern said to-day that
there were not three men in the Senate
who agreed on the question of adjourn
nent. Most of the leaders however, ap-
reared TO take the view that II would be
politically inexpedient to bring the extra
session to an end with the regular session
so near. 1t now seems probable that Con-
rress will go on without pause until far
into the coming year.
President Wilson told Senators to-day
that he was opposed to an. adjournment
so near the opening OF the regular ses-
sion.

Grain company, which is said to be
out for a bull campaign, upset all

who sold on the gains at the start paid
higher prices to get their wheat back.
The local short interest has been
cut down, but bulls are advocating
purchase on every little setback, as
they believe that there will be foreign
demand enough to sustain prices close
to the present level. At the same time
a few strong operators are selling
short on bulges.
Corn expert wires from Great Bend,
Kansas: Light rains here. Heavy
rains reported west and reaching to
Dodge. Will do much good. The crop
here is beginning to show considerable
damage.
An earlier message from Hutchin.

conditions are practically perfect as

of good color, but the late sown seed
is not growing any and some spots
