BRADY INTERESTS ARE
GOING INTO ASPHALT
New Oil Company Will Handle
the Mexican Products Of
the Pearsons.

There is more behind the deal con-
cluded between the Pearson oil inter
ests in Mexico and James c. Brady,
who succeeded his father, the late An
thony n. Brady, in many OF his cor
porate interests, than desire to fur-
nish oil to the various gas companies
which the Brady family control or own.
Mex Gan oil is now being used IN this
country in immense quantities IN road
building, and much of the asphalt USED
is now derived from that source. ,
The demand for this latter material
IS increasing greatly. In New YORK
City thousands Of tons are being used
in the new subways, and in various
other respects the demand is widen.
ing. Some Of the producers are well
contracted into next year, and experts
IN the trade incline to the belief that
the demand is really only in the be-
ginning. Hence the new Brady com
pany, which it is understood will be
called the American-Mexican Petrole-
I'm Products Company, viii have three
markets in which 10 dispose OF It's
'wsres-gas companies, road and other
builders and users of oil fuel.

British View Of Our Gold.

Speaking of the export of gold from
this country, "The Statist" Of a week
ago says: at should be clearly under
stood that the new banking law has
nothing whatever to do with the ability
OF New York TO send such large amounts
Of gold 20 Europe. The law will not be
nut into practical operation until the
autumn. and the first effect of il will
tc TO diminish and not to increase the
supply Of gold. Under the terms of
Abe law national banks all over the
country have to make deposits of gold
In the Federal Reserve banks. Prac-
tieslly the whole of the sum needed
in the first place must be provided by
the bankers Of New York and Chicago,
and it is anticipated that the payment
OF national bank reserve into the new
Federal Reserve banks, for q time at
spy rate, will create q greater demand
for gold in that country and will not
diminish it. Subsequently, of course,
the formation of the reserve bank will
enable a very large quantity Of bank
notes to be created, which il is eX-
ptcted will take the place Of the gold
certificates, and by the latter being
cancelled a great quantity of gold will
be set free for use whenever it may
BE- needed"

SENATE COMMITTEE
LOOKING FOR LEAK
Secret Testimony on Foreign
Relations Given Out in Garbled
Form, II Is Alleged.

Washington, June 27.-The Senate
Committee on Foreign Relations de-
cided to-day to investigate itself if the
Senate approves of the proceeding TO
ascertain how newspaper men have
been able 70 obtain details OF the dis
cussion of the Nicsraguan and Colon
bian treaties. Members of the COM
mittee, it was said to-day, were par
tieularly piqued over the publication Of
the testimony Of the Minister Of Mic
aragua that Germany had advised his
government to demand more than the
treaty provides for the canal rights
along the San Juan River
At a meeting of the committee to-
day, at which six members-five Demo-
Gratis and one Republican--weIe pres
cnt, Senator Stone was directed to pre-
sent a resolution calling for an investi-
cation and to make statement de-
nouncing "some one" for betrGying the
secrets of the committee. Senator
Stone said that it was matter Of re-
greet that the impression prevailed
among foreign nations that diplomatic
affairs were conducted by the United
States with too little dignity and that
there was "toO much Of shirtsleeve di-
plOmacy."
some one connected Win tue COM
mittee in some capacity" he added,
has been guilty of gross impropriety.
Garbled and inaccurate statements
have appeared in the press as to what
was said and done with respect TO these
matters. Two days since, on the invi.
tation Of the Foreign Relations Com
mittee, two gentlemen representing
Nicaragua, one the Minister Of Finance
Of the Republic and the other an ac-
credited agent TO this government, APP
peared before the committee They
felt that they could speak with free
dom because they understood it was to
be treated In the highest degree as con-
iidential.
"Some one connected with the com
mittee has been guilty of giving out
what occurred, which was q most dis
graceful performance. No man con-
nected with the committee can give out
confidential business of that committee
without placing on himself the brand
of dishonor and betrayal"
The resolution offered by Senator
Stone was referred to the Committee
on Contingent Expenses for considera-
ton. Senator Norris offered resoiu-
ton providing that each Senator be
furnished with copy OF the testimony
given before the Foreign Relations
Committee.

One probable effect of the ClaAin

Of buyers Of commercial paper for

that the Federal Reserve banks, once

Vera Cruz. April 29.-Anxiety in
Vera Cruz as to friends and relatives
in the interior, has been greatly re-
1ieved by the events of yesterday which
show that the Mexican authorities are
permitting Americans to come down to
the coast. Today the American colony
here which is growing steadily. settled
down to await news from Puerto Mex
leo, of the arrival of three train loads
of refugees from Mexico City which
the Huerta officials promised Com
mander Tweedie, of the British cruiser
Essex. would be dispatched from the
capital last night.
The route from the capital to
Puerto Mexico is long and round
about, and it is not expected the train
will reach the coast before next Fri
day. Rear Admiral Badger will have
a vessel at Puerto Mexico to meet the
a warship, as this might arouse anti
American feeling in a town which up
to the present has been entirely quiet.
The passenger boats available here
for the trip to Puerto Mexico. have
limited wireless equipment. conse-
quently the arrival of the refugee
trains, together with the names of
those on board may not be learned un-
til the steamer returns to Vera Cruz.
II the refugee trains are filled to
capacity as they probably will be, it
is estimated that 500 people will be
conveyed to Puerto Mexico. 1t is i'm
possible to determine how many
Americans this would leave in the cap
ital. William w. Canada, the Amerf-
can consul here, is endeavoring to OBJ
tain information along this line, from
the Brazilian minister at Mexico City,
to whom the affairs of the United
States were entrusted when Charge
D'Affaires O'Shaughnessy left.
