Heavy Fines Suggested.

May | also suggest in this connection
that all these parties have had a years
business, most. if not all of them. at
rates by which they have doubled the in
vestment with which the year began. and
without paying the 500 license which the
LAW required. Without wishing to seem
unduly severe. l suggest that from the
standpoint OF the District, which YOU rep
resent. justice will not be done until each
of them has been fined in enough suits
to make the total amount of fines at
least $500: and If a few can really be sent
to jail to show that the law is effective
in all its bearings. the situation will no
doubt be completely cleared.
1t will be noticed that action there
was based not simply on the New York
decision but on a. decision of the United
States Supreme Court. which would
govern here. 1t happened that Febru
airy "A another case. bearing OH the
same point. was decided by Justice Day
copy of this was promptly sent to
Mr.. keeilborn. who replied:
Il received the copy of Justice DAYS
opinion in the Weeks case and have read
it with considerable care. 1t does not in
any way change my earlier opinion that
1t is perfectly proper to seize papers at
the time an arrest is made and use
them in evidence at the trial"
This is not simply an opinion of an
attorney. 1t is the statement of the
man who actually did in numerous
cases just what he says is possible.
Had these prosecutions been pushed
then they would have stopped much of
the collecting for which one of the COM
panies is now to be prosecuted, and
which they have all been doing.
Because the New York law forfeits
the whole loan. If usurious interest is
charged. the effect of the arrest was
usually to wipe out the claims of the
loan shark against his victims; so that it
would not seem relatively severe if the
money lenders here were compelled to
refund one-fourth of all loans made since
the law took effect, whether all paid up
or not.
THE citizens committee earnestly
hopes that Congress will promptly pass
the amendments asked for by the Com
missioners and SO provide for the relief
of the poor by allowing capital to go into
the business and make loans at reason
able rates"

Here Is Good News
for Stomach Victims

Some very remarkable results are
being obtained by treating stomach,
liver and intestinal troubles with
pure vegetable oils. which exert
cleansing, soothing and purifying
action upon the lower bowels, re-
moving the distractions of poison
Gus fecal matter and gases and pre-
venting their absorption by the
blood. This done, the food is allow
cd free passage from the stomach,
fermentation ceases and stomach
troubles quickly disappear.
George H. Mayr. for twenty years
a leading Chicago druggist, cured
himself and many of his friends of
stomach, liver and intestinal trou-
bles of years standing by this treat
menJ, and SO successful was the
remedy he devised that il has since
been placed in the hands of drug
gists all over the country, who have
sold thousands of bottles
Though absolutely harmless. the
effect of the medicine is sufficient
to convince any one of its remark
able effectiveness, and within "a
hours the sufferer feels like a new
person. Mayr's Wonderful Stomach
Remedy is now sold here by James

Explanation by Seely.


In a brief personal statement Col. Seely
told the house there was no difference be-
tween himself and his colleagues in the
cabinet on any point of policy or principle.
He said he had pressed his resignation
because there appeared. although such
was not his intention. TO have been
bargain with the army officers regarding
the service they should render to the
crown. Neither had Sir John French nor
Sir John Ewart the intention of making
such bargain. Col. Seely said he did
not wonder, however. that the house had
resented the idea there should have been
a bargain. These two Off eTs had in
these peculiarly ironical circumstances
felt it to be their duty to resign. and
it was clearly the duty of the secretary
for war to do the same in order that it
might never appear that minister of the
crown had made a bargain with crown
servants regarding what should be done.
In the course of his speech Col Seely
said:
Grave issues have been raised which
may mean that the whole army system
may have to be recast''
Ministerial cheers greeted the remark,
which was interpreted as suggesting
the characterization of the army
Morley Likely to Quit.
Niscount Morley. in replying to
question put by Lord Curzon in the
house Of lords. admitted that he had
offended against a cabinet rule Asked
how it happened that IF the govern
ment felt compelled to withdraw the
paragraphs and Col. Seely to resign We
have the good fortune of seeing the
NiScount Morley still in charge of this
house. the president of the council
replied: II will answer that question
more or less satisfactorily tomorrow,

Andrew Eonar Law. leader of the op-
position thought it would be impossible
to proceed with the Irish home rule
bill in the absence of the premier. but
Premier Asquith remarked that he
would be at hand if advice was want
ed and then left the house. of which
Reginald Mckena, the home secre-
tary. assumed the leadership.
The resignation of Niscount Morley of
Blackburn as president of the council
is generally expected to follow that of
Col. Seely. with whom he was associat-
ed in drawing UP the offending para
graph of the memorandum to the Off
GERS. Premier Asquith has decided that
he will take only one salary instead of
the two to which he is entitled as
premier and secretary of war.
The bye election in East Fife will prob
ably take place April Is. If the union

Announced by Asquith.

Col. Seely's resignation has been ac-
cepted.'
This was the euphemstic expression en-
poyed by Premier Asquith in announcing
to the house of commons today that his
war secretary had paid the penalty of
his indiscretions in adding to a cabinet
document the Two paragraphs which have
aroused such feeling as to threaten the
existence of the entire cabinet.
The first information received by mem
hers of parliament that Col Seely had
definitely retired from the cabinet was
when he entered the house and took
seat on the back benches instead OF
among his late colleagues.
The two paragraphs which caused the
crisis were those giving guarantees to
Brig. Gen. Hubert Cough and contained
the following:
The government must retain its right
to use all the forces of the crown in Ire
land or elsewhere to maintain order and
support the civil power in the ordinary
execution OF their duty. but il has no in
tenton whatever of taking advantage of
this right in order to crush political op
position to the policy or the principles OF
the home rule bill.

tees by the cabinet was taken a re-
buff by Field Marshal Sir John French
