New Type of Paper Money

Washington, D. C., June 21.- Millions of dollars in paper money of a new type will be put into circulation upon the estab- lishment of the federal reserve banks within the next few weeks. Under the federal re- serve bank act, each of the 12 federal reserve banks will re- ceive advances from the federal Reserve Board in the form of federal reserve notes, a dis tinctly new sort of paper money. Commercial paper will be the collateral advanced by the var ious banks as security for these notes. Comptroller of the Cur rency Williams has samples of this new paper money now un- der consideration.
 The $5 note submitted by MT. Ralph is typical of agricul- ture. The portrait on the face of the note is Lincoln's, and the back shows a harvesting ma- chine and allegorical figures rep- resenting farming. The $10 note bears a portrait of Cleve- land and a manufacturing scene. The S20 bears Jackson s portrait and is typical of commerce, hav- ing steamship, train and other mediums of trade on the back. Grants picture is shown on the $50 note and Franklin's por- trait adorns the S100 bill. Both of these larger bills are typical of the arts. All the bills will be printed in green ink on the back while black ink will be used on the faces.

 Washington, D. C., June 22.- Should labor use big business lobby methods, the president would be ass critical of it as he is now against the element that attempts to stop antitrust leg islation is the reply made to President Bush of the Ohio manufacturers who believes the president failed to act against labor lobby at the same time taking strong measures against big business.
 The dissolution of the New Haven combine through filing suit is the prospect which the President admitted confronts the administration unless the Massa- chusetts legislature passes the "New Haven Enabling Act, per- mitting dissolution by agree ment between the road and the Department of Justice. Thus far Massachusetts has given him no word.
 The United States stands pat on the California alien land con- troversy with Japan, which was reopened at Japan's in- stance. The President sees no reason to change his idea that California's law violates none cS Japan's treaty rights.

 self facing George Kuerta, the son of Madero's assassin.
 What are you doing here 7 he asked, insolently. He's a loafing young blood of the capi- tal and perhaps one of his fath- CTS cognacs made him particu- Elarly overbearing in his de- meanor. Are you a relative of the Maderos P he continued. What are you crying around here for ?" I was in the ceme- tery myself, that Sunday, and I know what a sinister crowd of soldiers and secret service men it was that surrounded Madero's grave. It would have taken a 1 brave man to stand at that grave 1side and speak his mind, and he probably would have paid for his words with his life. We're here to mourn for the good man your father murdered"
 1 The words came like so many shots; spoken right into the face of the assassin's son, delivered in the presence of grim sol diers; heard by scores of by islanders who were secretly mourning; thrilling me, as they idid every other bystander until it hurt us not to be able to cheer. Mrs. Reyes told George Huerta some more things, too; she told him that he was as bad a man as his drunken father. She prophesied; she said the day would come when his father who had seized the presidency by murder, would be an outcast. She said she hoped the way was not far away, either, and then lshe wound up by saying, Now, 1go home and tell your father what an American woman, who isn't afraid to talk, thinks about him" She and her daughter turned away, stalked through the lines of soldiers and left the wondering and astonished son of the dictator to think things out.
 Pm telling this story of the Reyes family now because it is the first chance I have had to tell it, without endsngering the lives or at least the liberty of that brave woman and her beau tiful daughters.
 1 After the incident secret serv- ice men haunted them and their home; even their servants, they discovered, were Huerta spies. And the other day, they had to flee. There was one white lman" in the Huerta govern ment, who called one of the girls to his office and said:
 Your mother and you girls had better get out of the capital as soon as you can, Huerta is planning to arrest her."
 And so the plucky little Amer ican woman, with her four daughters, left their home one evening, for the railroad station without being observed and, "A hours later, were under the A. merican flag in Vera Cruz.

BACK UNDER
 AMERICAN FLAG
Mrs. Reyes, Widow of Mexican, Tells Huerta's Son A Piece
 of Her Mind.
United Press Service.

United Press Service.
 Vera Cruz, Mexico, June 18.- Mrs. Mary Reyes is back again under the American flag, after having given a certain Mexican named Huerta, the sassing of his life. With her she brings four pretty daughters, about whom the young lieutenants of the army and navy are flocking like birds. But to go headlong into the story:
 Mrs. Reyes went to Mexico 25 years ago and is the American widow of a Mexican who was once wealthy. Her four daugh- ters have delightful little lisps, calculated to drive white-suit- ed young navy man half mad. The girls learned stenography, after the family fortunes waned and in good American style they jumped in after their fathers death, and made for themselves and their mother home that was one of the brightest and most interesting in Mexico City. When President Madero was as- sassinated Mrs. Reyes agreed with President Wilson. that Huerta, the assassin, ought not to be recognized. It was an easy matter for President Wilson not to recognize Huerta, but for Mrs. Reyes, it was an affair of great difficulty, owing to the fact that the Reyes and Huerta 1 families were in the same social set in the capital. Mrs. Reyes began to speak her mind wher- ever she went. The Carranza- Iistas, who were working secret ly in the city, at the risk of their lives, sought her out and told her to be careful.
 "I'm going to talk and think as I please, said Mrs. Reyes, in American style. The Carran- zasists in the capital began to depend more and more on the American woman and her daughters for aid in accomplish ing secret and difficult tasks. For instance, it's Mrs. Reyes own secret how she did it, but it is known that IA deputies who had been marked for death by Huerta were spirited away from her home, at various times, to safety. And every time dep- uty went to safety the wardrobe of one of the girls was minus Q gown or a street dress. If you could just get the Reyes family to tell the details of some of these things you'd have a play or a book, that would thrill the world. Maybe they'll tell, some time, they say but the Car ranzaistas aren't in power yet. The crisis for the Reyes family icame on February 22, not be- cause that is Washington's birthday, but because it is the anniversary of the assassination of Francisco Madero, who was almost an idol with the Reyes girls and their mother. On that Sunday afternoon Mrs. Reyes taking her liberty and it might have been her life, into her hands, went to the French cem- lcAor., ,x,horo MaHnrn 1ins hl1rinI and, carrying a great boquet of roses, she stalked her way through the lines of Mexican soldiers and rurales to the Madero family tomb, and placed the roses there. Carmen, her daughter, who was standing be- side her, suddenly felt the touch of a hand on her shoulder.
