Following the luncheon the Belgian

Beethoven and Wolf-Ferrari contributed
to the programme, SO there was no un-

But before reaching the hotel after the
services at the cathedral, the King was
taken to the Boston Library and there
shown Puvis De Chavannes's magnifi-
cent murals, the charming Kate Greena-
ways in the children's rooms, and the
splendid collection of Belgian and
French war posters and paintings that
were on special display for the occasion.
The King and the Queen were sincere in
their praise of the library.
The decorum OF the sidewalk crowds
and the almost stiff dignity of the whole
atmosphere surrounding him SO reas-
sured the King that he elected to walk
from the library to the hotel. So he,
the Queen and the Prince walked. No
guards or police preceded them, The
crowd made way for the royal trio
clapped its hands briefly and with cir
cumspection and the visitors walked
across the Plaza into the hotel smiling
and nodding just as though they haC
lived in Boston for years.

Problem Very Complex.

1.-THE problem OF controlling the vol
ume of uses Of credit in a country with
so much diversity of business Interests
and business temper as the United
States is far from simple and far from
certain of solution. Experience alone
can determine whether and in what man
fier technique of control through rates
can be developed which will secure the
desired results The objects to be OBJ
tained are, however, clear and vastly
important They are TO regulate the
volume and uses of credit SO as to give
at all times to productive industry the
beneficial effects of credit stimulus and
support without, however, opening the
way to the costly evils of credit and
price imitation.
THE responsiveness of the volume OF

was called In the bulletin to the increase
OF Federal Reserve notes in the months

FORGERY PLOT IN
FEDERAL PRISON
Gigantic SwindIe Operated From
Within Walls of Fort
leavenWOrth.
SCORE UNDER ARREST
Subtreasury Checks and Checks on
Private Concerns Printed in Prison
Printing Office - Confession
Reveals Amazing Plot.

Chicago.-An amazing story of for
gerry and counterfeiting, carried on by
band of 20 men in the federal prison
in Fort Leavenworth, was revealed
In this city through the arrest of sew
eral OF the participants.
The arrests, which were made after
six weeks work by Peter Drautzberg
and w. G. Harper, assistants to Capt.
THOMAS l. Porter, chief Of the Chicago
district Of the United States secret
service, turned up the entire conspir-
acy.
The forgery, from which perhaps
SlOO,OOO has been realized through the
use OF many names Of prominence, in
VOWED the printing OF 1000 subtreasury
checks, calling for S1OO each, as we'll
as checks on private concerns, such
as the United Fruit company of New
orleans. The printing of these was
done in the prison printing office at
Fort Leavenworth.
Also Forged Letterheads.
In order to get paper on which to
PRINT the private checks the prisoners
had to obtain supplies of tNe best bank
paper. So they wrote for samples to
the leading supply houses of the coun-
try.
On large number of the phony
checks the name &c. Shelton Williams"
was written. These checks passed
more readily than any, it being hastily
assumed by the recipient that it was
drawn at the instance Of John Shelton
Williams, high treasury official.
Inc denouement came through the
arrest of an innocent man, a former
soldier who had been a prisoner but
who' 1t developed, had taken no part
IN the swindle. This youth was seized
on the complaint Of a st. Louis busi
