Des Moines, March 31.-Too much
money. rather than not enough, is
what's the matter with the American
railroads.
The enormous increase in the vol
ume OF currency turnout the world in
recent years is primarily the cause in
the decline in market price of the
bonds and other securities OF railroads.
1t is the addition of great supply Of
gold to the worlds stock that has az
fected the financial situation much
mere than anything else.
This fact is to be presented u tho
interstate commerce COMM sion today
and tomorrow, at Washington, by Cliff
ford Thorne, when he Is recalled to the
stand to restate before the entire COM
mission the arguments ne las pre-
scented showing the fallacy Of the po-
sition taken by the railroads In de-
manding higher freight rates as
remedy for their financial troubles. Mr..
Thorne completed preparation Just be-
fore he left for Washington or some
startling exhibits bearing on the gen
eral financial situation. Because OF the
Importance Of his testimony the COM
mission asked him to return ana make
a showing of it all to the commission
as whole. He is in WASHINGTON now
for that purpose.
Decline Worldwide.
Mr.. Thorne will show that the de-
cline in interest charges, hence decline
in values. of bonds and other secur-
tiles calling for payment in money. Is
common turnout the world that the
decline in value of the bonds Of Amer
lean railroads is less than the decline
in United States bonds, or OF british
consols or CT French rentes OF of the
bonds Of industrial corporations; or
in other words, that the railroad COR
porations are just as able to ocsfo"
money as other corporations, private
and public; and that the real cause OF
this is the increase in the worlds sup
ply of gold.
The argument is that the more gold
in the world, or more money tne
cheaper money becomes. and these VINO

count the fact that money VIII De more

ner, the same causes AFFECT the price
Of stocks the other way. since STOCKS
represent property, and with increase
in volume of money the price OF prop
erty will increase.
This is only one Of the many inter-
esting facts to be presented to thP
commission this week by Mr.. Thorne
in relation to the demand for higher
freight rates so that the companies

a FURRY Among Financisrs.
Whether or not the Thorne testi-
mony to be given, or rather to be re-
peated this week in Washington. will
make any impression on the Interstate
commerce commission, there Is some
evidence that II has caused furry OF
the biggest kind In the offices OF the
railroad president. Just as TEorne
started east he CHANGED upon tEe Rail-
way Age Gazette, which voices :he
views Of the railroad president and fl
nanciers; and In this Is a partial re-
print OF letter from Mayor Brown OK
Fort Madison in which that dignitary
takes fling at almost everything IN
Iowa and protests against the cutting
Off Of excursion rates out of the state.
The Brown story Is introduced as
follows:
people living outside of Iowa have
learned to look upon that state as the
domicile OF radicelism. 1t has sue

practically unanimous sentiment OF
that commonwealth"
Then the Railway Age Gazette dag
noses the Iowa case, incidentally, say
ing:

Iowa that the growth of the states in

In regard to these last cases OF Glenn

Paroles are recommended in two life
cases, one being first degree murder

board in the latter case is based upon
the theory that the consequences of
crime should not be laid too rigidly
against a man who has been in inn

ably much to do with his criminal ca
