FEDERAL RESERVE
BANK NOTE ISSUE
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington. July 3.-Plans for the
issuance of the new federal reserve
bank notes to the twelve reserve
banks after their establishment will
be completed within thirty-six days.
This was announced here today by
John Shelton Williams, comptroller of
the currency, after general confer
ences with Secretary McAdoo and Di-
rector Ralph of the bureau Of print
ing and engraving.
It practically has been decided that
notes of all denominations will have
a green back of the same design. This
would make it necessary for notes to
be stacked right side UP before they
can be counted and would simplify
denominations o.; five, ten, twenty
fifty and one hu rdred dollars Por-
traits of Lincoln. Cleveland, Jackson,
Grant and Frank lin have been con-
sidered for use o. the various notes
but a definite de'ision has not yet
been reached.

APMcky Woman
Chokes to Death
A Mighf ProwAer
BY ASSOCIATED PRS

Il
NorksVille, Ill. July Sin a des-
perate fight in the dark early today
with a robber who had invaded their
home, Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Grim
wood, an aged couple, killed the in
truder. The man died as Mrs. Grim
wood was throttling him.
The robber, apparently so years old,
Wore a new suit of clothes. In his
pocket was a receipt from a Chicago
department store for a suit and it
bore the name William Davis. Slips
showing apparent profits of 5000 or
$4,000 on the Board of Trade of Chi
cago also were found. The police be-
lieve the clothing was stolen and that
the papers belong to another man.
The noise made by the invader
awoke the Grimswoods and the hus-
band seized a club kept beside the bed
The robber had picked up an ice pick
Neither could see the other and they
lunged about the room, striking furt-
ouSly. Now and then Grmwood got
home a blow with the club while the
thief occasionally hit the other with
the pick.
At length one of Grimwood's swings
crashed upon the robbers head and he
fell Mrs. Grimwood who had been
awakened by rushing Of feet, leaped
upon the robber, seizing him by the
throat. She choked him while her
husband struck a light and went after
a rope to bind the man. The robber
died as her husband came back.

Washington, July 3.-One million
dollars in a single fee.
That's what they say Hannis Tay-
lor, former minister to Spain, inter-
national lawyer and warm friend of
William J. Bryan will get from the
Columbian government in case the
proposed treaty giving Colombia
SIS, 100000 goes through. Mr. Bryan
drew up the treaty, and is its most
ardent supporter.
Mr.. Taylor admits that he has been
employed by Colombia to use his in
fluence and legal skill to get the
treaty through. He denies, however,
that the amount of his fee has been
fixed. He says that his employment
has been legitimate in every respect;
that neither in the arrangements for
his compensation nor in any other
phase Of his connection with the nego-
tiations is there the slightest taint of
scandal.
The rumor that Mr.. Taylor is to
receive a million for his share if the
treaty goes through was started when
member Of the Taylor family made
a remark at a dinner party to the eff
feet that Mr.. Taylor will be on easy
street" If the treaty passes the sem
ate, for he is to be paid 100000 for
his services to the Colombia govern
ment.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1914-07-04

Even after Mr.. Tayior's denial the
rumor gained strength. AS it is
known Colombia is willing to spend
huge sums to secure the passage of
the treaty.
1T seems to be clear that of the
$4,000, 900 it is proposed to give
Colombia there is at elast $f5,O00.-
coo totally unaccounted for by the
previous claims of that country said
Senator Borah, one of the foremost
opponents of the treaty. In fact,
during the Taft administration, Co
lombia was willing to accept $S,00o.
900. There seems to be room here
for a few explanations.
Mr.. Bryan has summarized the OBJ
jeCts to be accomplished by the rati
fiCation of the treaty as follows:
First-The restriction of amnity
between the United States and Co
lombia.
Second-The creation of an amic-
able relation between the republics
of Colombia and Panama, which he
holds is desirable.
Third-The action of the United
States, pursuant to the treaty,
will have Il faVora BILE impression
throughout the Latin-American re-
publics and promote General cordial
good will between the United States
and the younger republics of the
western hemisphere

DR.. s. r. Mallory Kennedy has been
appointed acting state health officer
for Florida during the illness Of state
Health Officer JOS. Y. Porter who -
now i'll at Atlantic City where his
family have been summoned to his
bedside.
Dr. Kennedy takes charge immed-
lately and, for the present. the head
quarters OF the state health office will
De at Pensacola.
The news Of DR.. Porters fitness and
the suggestion that he accept the pos
ition OF state health officer until Dr.
Porter is again able to assume his
duties, came a complete surprise
to DIR. Kennedy In a telegram from G..
g. Memminger, member of tho
state board of health. Mr.. Memminger
said that the present situation de-
manded some one with expert knowl-
edge to take charge Of the work and
asked the Pensacola physician If he
would act. The appointment itself
came in the form of a telegram from
President Fernside of the state board
OF health which reads as follows:
APPOINTMENT BY TELEGRAM.
Palatka, Fla, July 3, 1914
DR. s. r Mallory Kennedy, Pensacola,
Florida.
You are appointed state health Of
ficer to take charge until DIR. Porter
returns to the state.
II. j. FERNSIDE,
President State Board OF Health.
DR.. Kennedy Immediately wired an
acceptance of the appointment and
made preparations to take active
charge Of the work. One of his first
acts was TO wire Surgeon General
Blue, asking that all communications
regarding the plague situation in
Havana, Santiago. Cuba, and New Or
leans be sent here and that advice
and suggestions be sent wherever the
surgeon general thought 1t neCes-
Sary.
The illness al this time of DR.. Jos.
Y. Porter is most regrettable and all
Floridians will hope that the dstin-
guished state health officer, whose
ability and watChfullness has been
tested on more than one occasion, may
soon be able to resume his duties. II
is at the same time fortunate for
Florida that, during DR.. Porter's alb
sence, so able and competent a health
expert as Dr. Kennedy may be draft
ed into service.
DR.. Mallory Kennedy is the son OF
Ruby Mallory Of Pensacola and DIR. T..
Orleans He is about SO years old and
is the youngest man, probably who
has held the position of state health
officer. He is a graduate of Tulane
University, a physician of recognized
ability, and credit to the profession
and the state. That he will make
good in his present position, no ono
who knows him doubts.
