SENATE WILL PASS
CURRENCY BILL TODAY
Leaders Expect President to
Sign Bill Before Christmas.
SPEECHES TO BE LIMITED.
With Defeat of Hitchcock Amend
mends Affirmative Work Will
be Started.

Washington, Dec. 17.-An agree
ment to vote on tn final passage Of
the administration currency bill ION
the legislative day OF Friday, Decem-
ber 49," late today was reached in
the senate. The agreement provides
that debate tomorrow and Friday
shall be limited to fifteen minutes for
each senator upon each amendment
or upon the bill itself.
While the legislative day may run
over into Saturday II is the expecta-
ton of senate leaders that the bill
will be passed before midnight Fri
day night. If important amendments
are pending at that time, however, a
recess may be taken until Saturday
morning, as the Republicans would
not consent to the agreement until
the Democrats promised they would
not keep the senate in session all
night Friday.
Democratic Leader Underwood, of
the house, today was in conference
with senate leaders in preparation for
the final stages of congressional ac-
tion on the currency measure. Tt is
thought that but two days will be
taken for the completion of the bill
in the joint conference committee.
House leaders have kept in close
senate and they expect President
Wilson's signature to be attached to
the measure before Christmas. The
big task or organizing federal re-
serve board and creating the vast
system of regional banks then will
begin.
AMENDMENTS DEFEATED.
The senate spent today in consid-
Grafton of further amendments pro-
posed by Senator Hitchcock, defeat
ing by Al to 81 his amendment to eX-
Ntend the guarantee OF bank deposits
to cover state banks that joined the
new system, as we'll as national
banks. Senator owen expressed his
approval OF this idea, but the Demo-
Gratis would not support 1t because It
had not received the endorsement OF
the caucus. A motion by Senator
Hitchcock to increase from 90 days
to $50 days the maturity date of pa
discount at the regional banks also
was defeated, 80 to "a.
The Democrats at o'clock tonight
gathered in hurriedly called confer
ence to settle all final differences
over the bill and agree upon amend
ments which they would support. The
list of amendments submitted to the
caucus included many of those which
had been proposed by Senator Hitch
cock, or by Republicans and voted
, down, and 1t was said several of
these might be offered tomorrow or
Friday by Senator Owen and adopted
as part of the bill.

new road law was passed in 1907 and
since that time this road has been
worked but twice, in 1910 and 1912.
This road is only ten or twelve feet
wide in places and full of holes. yet
is used more than any other road in
Indian Land township. One of our
county supervisors told one of our
citizens a few years ago that the
people in the Pan Handle were un-

meant that we didn't have enough
votes. Anyway, we are looking for
ward with hope that 1914 will give
us one more working for this road.

report received here today by Cen
eral Carranza, denied that anv for
elgners were molested in Chihuahua

lards' VINO were expelled Villa sug-
gested that Chihuahua City be made

The foreign consuls asked for

Ihese, as you know, almost en-
tirely have taken an undue part in

EVEN TO KOBE, JAPAN.
Newburger Cotton Company Buys Big
Lot of Cotton in Lancaster.

This from The Charlotte Observer
of Wednesday is an item of interest
concerning big consignment of cot
ton shipped from Lancaster by Mr..
G. ID. Jones:
THE Newburger Cotton Company
received yesterday one lot of 600
bales OF cotton purchased several
days ago from Mr.. G.. ID. Jones in
Lancaster, S. c., for which an aver
age of 13% cents was paid. This
cotton was brought IN here for re-
shipment and stored for the time be-
ing with the Merchants and Farmers
Warehouse Company. Some of 1t is
TO go to Liverpool, some to the
Eastern mills, while a portion of it
is destined for Kobe, Japan. This
cotton is of good grade and COM
manded good price, as evidenced
by the sum paid by this concern for it.
ALREADY this season the New
burger Cotton Company has brought
into Charlotte from neighboring
points 10000 bales of cotton for re-
shipment and more is coming in every
day. This concern has headquarters
in Memphis, Tenn, with Charlotte an
important branch. The bringing of
this cotton into the city for reship-
ment requires the outlay of large
sums of money which is provided by
the local banks. Thus the Union Ma
tional Bank financed the deal where
this 500 bale lot was brought here
yesterday"

CHAMP CLARK RAPS
CALAMITY HOWLERS
Answer to Mann's Gloomy Pic
ture of County Under Tariff.
THREAT OF CONTROL.
Democratic Speaker RidicuIes Speech
OF Senator ROOt-Conspiracy
Against Progress.

Washington, Dec. 18.-Speaker
Clark left his chair in the hoiIse to-
Day to challenge the patriotism of
calamity bowling" Republicans.
Minority Leader Mann had made a
speech ptcturing the country in the
throes OF business and Industrial de-
preston as a result of Democratic
tarif legislation. AS the greatest
calamity howlers in America" the
speaker presented Senator Root.
FORMER Speaker Cannon, Chairman
H1lles of the Republican national
committee, former Governor HadIev
OF Missouri and Representative Mann.
T. vigorously defending the new tariff
law, Mr.. Clark declared that If there
had been any hold-up in business it
was simply because prudence was be-
ing exercised. He said the wish was
father of the thought with the Re-
publican leaders and suggested that
1T was strange no one else had seen
signs Of falling prices.
UNPARDONABLF PERFORMANCE
"These men," continued Speaker
Clark, " propose to get il into the
newspapers day after dav. that the
country is going to the dogs and
business is going to the deuce and
people that never thought of a panic
will begin to study about it. To all
thinking men this will be considered
a monstrous and objectionable per-
formance"
Representative Mann had painted
a gloomy picture Of the country un-
der the Democratic tariff and the
threat of political control Of banking
and currency. "Throughout the
country today" he said wherever
men are congregated there now is
that quiet discussion going on, which
when cold weather strikes the coun-
try, will end in a roar and a howl
that will even penetrate the ears OF
the deaf statesmen on the Democratic
side of the aisle Men with wives
and children, willing to work, who
were at work three months ago, are
now seeking the opportunity. The
President could do much towards re-
viving confidence if he would.
THE Democratic side of this house
could do much, but they are pursu-
ing the fatuous policies which they
have talked about on the stump so
many years"
MAKES SPIRITED REPLY.
Taking the floor as soon as the
minority leader had finisher, Speaker
Clark launched into a spirited reply
to the Republican predictions OF dis
aster from the enactment of the cur
rency measure. Ridiculing the as
sertions of Senator Root and others,
he predicted that the bill would be
passed by next Monday or Tuesday,
land after it becomes law the coun-
try will blossom like the rose"
"I don't believe" he shouted,
chat I exceed bounds of propriety
or Of fact in saying that predictions
of disaster look like a Republican
conspiracy against progress Of the
republic Mr. Mann, while bowling
calamity, disclaims that he is a
calamity bowler, but Mr.. Root, Mr..
Cannon, Mr.. Hadley and Mr.. Mann
have been the greatest calamity how
lers in this country this fall"
