Representative Henry De-
clares Big Bankers Want
New Law Framed So They
Can Issue Currency on
Rotten Securities"
Many House Democrats
Are With Him.

Washington June 13.-An undercur-
rent of opposition among consid.
cradle number of. house democrats to-
the plan for currency legislation ait
! this session of congress took definite
!, shape today when Representative
Henry of Texas, chairman of the rules
committee, openly charged that Wall
street was back Of the propaganda for
currency legislation. While favoring
| revision of both the banking and cur
rency laws at the next session of con-
gress, Mr.. Henry insisted that further
investigation of the so-called money
trust should be pressed immediately,
Barely Scratched Surface.
The Pujo committee, he declared,
barely scratched the surface of the
facts underlying the concentration Of
control Of money and credit. because
the controller of the currency refused
access to his records, making 1t i'm
possible for the investigators to ex-
pose completely the existing relations
between the Wall street bankers and
their allies with their trusts and mo-
nopolies, stock gamblers and financial
wall street bankers" he added,
now are demanding legislation on the
currency question in order that they
may make a market for their com
mercial paper, (much OF it based on
rotten seeurities) and have currency
issued on their assets"
Mr.. Henry introduced a bill TO
amend the banking laws so as to make
banking associations subject to the
visitorial powers exercised or di-
rected'' by congress or by either house
Of congress.
Message Expected.
While this was going on it became
known that the administration meas
ure would be introduced in the house
next Tuesday and that the full COM
mittee of the house probably would
meet to take up the bill within the
next day or two. President Wilson
is expected to send message ON the
subject probably Tuesday.
1T is an imperative duty to pass
currency legislation at this session of
congress-" said Representative Glass

THE machine was a new one and
Kelly was not familiar with it, said
Capt. A. G. Cowan, who witnessed hte
accident. Ellington went as in

machine had a dual control, which
enables either occupant to control it
at will. The controls were connected,
enabling the instructor to correct in.

Missouri Live stock HoIs, o,vr.

Jefferson City.-Live stock to the
value of SIPS. 207,I97 was marketed
during the year 1912 by the ia coun-
ties of Missouri. according to advance
Information from the 1918 Red :,ook
of the bureau of labor statistics.
To give a more definite idea OF what
the shipments consisted Of, there
were 1,197,632 head of cattle and
calves. valued at $55. 1871, 900; S,525,1 9
head of hogs, valued at $44, 064, 800;
5000 head of horses and mules, val
ued at $19, 5S6,250; 1901 50 head Of
sheep and lambs. valued at $S,402, $50;
15.171 head of goats, valued at $780,
1877, and 500 jacks and stations, val
ued at $656,000.
Every county of Missouri made
shipments of live stock. The figures
do not include live stock sold locally
and slaughtered. 1t is figured that
two-fifths of the cattle and hogs of
the counties were shipped out and
onefifth sold locally, leaving two
fifths remaining on the farms.
A scarcity Of cattle caused a falling
off in the quantity shipped, the year
1912 compared with 1911. There was,
however, a gain in the number of
horses and mules marketed. There
was also a gain in the quantity of
sheep and goats marketed over 1911.
1t took 102,365 freight cars to haul
this vast array of live stock to the
market.
Buchanan county carried off the
honor of having shipped the most cat
tie to market, the amount being 65,-
S72 head. Clinton county comes next
with 32,731 head and Newton third
with 32,320. In the shipment of hogs
Nodaway county led with 1856
head. Cass county came second with
12S,825 head and Bates county third
with 92,454. Schuyler county shipped
out 1858 head of sheep and Clay
county 41,395 head. Shelby county led
in the shipment of goats, sending 1900
head to market. Monroe county was
second with 1910 and Howell county
third with 1,125. Newton county mar.
keted $50 head of jacks and stations,
Boone 40 and Pettis 4S. Schuyler
shipped out $500 head of horses and
mules, Holt county 1929. Green, Blu
chanan, Pettis and Audrain shipped

, No Increase in Workers.

Jefferson City.-A delegation repre-
senting wholesale dealers and manu-.
%facturers of harness and saddlery and
retail dealers throughout the state has
filed a protest with penitentiary in.
spectors against any increase in the
number of convicts to be worked by a
saddlery company in the Missouri
prison.
This company began the manufac.
ture of harness in the prison some
years ago with a contract calling for
the employment of IL men. That
number has been increased to 48 and
the company now is asking to make
another contract calling for 100.
Objection to the proposed increase,
the delegation told the board, was
based on the injustice that would be
done to one of the most important in
dustries in Missouri if a big harness
factory we're permitted to be. estab-
lished in the prison.
Convict-made harness and saddles.
they said, were marketed through the
mail-order houses and it was a com
petition that could not be met by the
outside manufacturers and retail
dealers.
They asked the board not to cor
tract with the company for an in
crease of men.
