RESERVE BANKS
New System Is Now In Oper-
alton.

Washington special: Marking a
new era in the financial history of the
United States, the twelve federal re-
serve banks of the new currency sys-
TEN opened their doors on Monday.
It is the belief of the authorities that
the new banking system will instill
additional confidence in business and
have large influence in commercial
and industrial affairs.
The new system permits the expan-
sion and contraction of the money
supply Of the country in keeping with
in the actual needs of business, where
as the old system maintained the same
amount Of the circulating medium for
all seasons and all financial situations.
The effect of the newly organized sys-
tenn, according to officials, will be to
prevent panics.
President Wilson signed the federal
reserve act, which he called the CON
stitution of peace for business" nearly
q year ago. but sufficient progress has
not yet been made by the organization
for the system to permit the twelve
reserve banks at this time to under
take the exercise of all the functions
vested in them by this act. Because
Of the extraordinary financial situation
In this country which has resulted
from the European war, the federal re-
serve board thought II best that all
possible haste should be made in open
Ing the reserve banks for limited ex-
ercise of their functions. The opera
| tons OF the banks at the outset, there
| fore. will be limited to the acceptance
of deposits Of reserves payable in law
full money; discounting of bills OF ex-
change and commercial paper and the
acceptance of deposits OF checks lrawn
by member banks on any federal re-
serve banks or member banks in re-
serve and central reserve cities within
their respective districts.

Gated in the cities OF Boston, New

This Is the Latest Sensational
RumOr.
SAID TO Be FRIEND OF FOE
Former Premier and Minister of FL
nance in France Has Suddenly De-
parted For South America With His
Wife Under circumstances Which
Raise Hints of an Enforced Exile for
We'll Understood Reasons Of State.

Paris, Nov. 16.-Much mystery is
connected with the sudden departure
for South America of Joseph Caillaux,
former premier and minister OF
finance, who was accompanied by his
wife, the central figure in a sensation
al murder case few months ago. The
newspapers here merely mention the
fact that NJ and Nine. CaillauX left
from Bordeaux on the liner Perou. 1t
is limited, however, that the man whom
Germany has called her greatest
friend in France. is going into enforced
exile. This may be bold statement,
but it is believed extraordinary that
man who holds the rank of paymaster
in the army. who was recently reflect
ed member of the chamber of depu-
ties, and who, up until the trial of his
wife for the murder of CASTOR Cal
mette, the editor of the Figaro. was
the most powerful politician in France
it seems extraordinary that such
man should leave France in time of
war.
Rumors of imprisonment.
Nine Cailaux took up Red Cross
work after her acquittal in the latter
part of July and has since been active
ly engaged along that line. Caillaux
himself has been much heard from
since he was appointed to the paymas-
ters department. 1t was reported but
not confirmed. that he went to the
front and offered to give favored treat
ment to soldiers from his election dis

In the course of the charges and
counter-charges made by the princi-
pals in the Calmette-Caillaux "adaire"
there were more than hints that the

Mocorccan settlements, by which Ger

The Campaign in Poland.


In Poland three Russian armies are
attacking the frontier of Posen and
Silesia, concerned for the moment with
driving every German detachment
from Polish soil A fourth Russian
army has broken through the German
defense at the Warthe and has pushed
an advance guard into Posen, holding
a position at Pleschen. A fifth. moy-
ing southwestward. is at the gates OF
Cracow, and, according to official an
nouncements in Petrograd, is attack
ing the outer defenses of the city.
There are unofficial reports that this
army's right wing has occupied Czen-
stachova.
Two Russian armies are operating
in Galicia One is nearing Cracow,
having captured Tarnow. sixty-five
miles to the east. and having reached
the River Dunajee. 1t is reported that
cavalry has crossed the Dunajee and
is raiding considerably west of that
city. This army is cooperating with
the fifth Russian army advancing on
Cracow from the northeast. The two
forces are rapidly converging with
their advance guards within forty to
fifty miles of contact. There is a ru-
NOR current in Petrograd and repeat
ed from Rome, that Cracow has fallen
to the Russians, but 1t is believed here
that the report is premature.

On the Russian Right.

Seven Russian armies, numbering
100000 men, are now attempting to
close in on Germany. On the Russian
right wing two armies are advancing
toward the East Prussian defense line
Of Dantzig- Thorn with the obvious pur-
pose of holding the River Vistula from
the Baltic to Thorn and making any
turning movement by the Germans in
the north impossible when the central
armies, now advancing in west Poland
against Breslau, are ready to strike
with full force. The first army holds
Stalluponen and the railway line to
Gumbinnen and Insterburg, and is be-
lieved to have occupied probably twen-
ty-five or thirty miles of German ter
ritory. The second army, cooperating
with great energy, is advancing in an
entirely new line toward the north
west and has gained foothold at Sol
dau, johannesburg and the region
south of Allenstein. There are re-
ports that the Germans are attempting
an offensive movement from Thorn,

London special: The situation In
the eastern theater Of war is summar-
ized by military critics as more favor
able to Russia than at any time since
the outbreak of hostilities three and a
half months ago. Germany and Aus
tria have failed twice in powerful Of
fensive movements and now are en-
tirely concerned with the problem Of
blocking the Russians from German
territory.
In this they have not been wholly
successful, since Russian troops are
further within East Prussia than ever
before and have even broken through
the Warthe line in west Poland and
gained a foothold at various points In
Posen and Silesia. This appears to be
due not SO much to the weakness OF
= the German resistance as to the con-
stantly growing power Of the Russian
attack and to the superior generalship
Of the Russian commander in chief.
Russia has been able not merely to re-
pair losses, but to add at least 200, 900
trained troops to her first line armies
every month.
