ATTACKS RENTENMARK
Dr. Luther Requests Grant Of Credit In Addition to t.200. 900 900 Rent cnmaIks Already Issued.

Berlin, Dec. 2o.--The first attack on the stability of the rcntenmark, which since its appearance not long ago has considerably improved gen eral economic conditions throughout Germany. was made today by Min ister Of Finance Luther, who request ed the board Of directors of the Rentenbank to grant the government a credit in addition to that Of .e00.- 000.000 rentenmarks already at it's disposal.
 Although Dr, Luther said it was only a question or short term credit which would have no effect on imitation. the board re eiected the re- quest. making its decision after it had heard several speakers who expressed fear that the minister's proposed credits 10 the government would un- determine faith in the rentenmark.
 In the face of this refusal Dr. Luther will issue exchequer bills in rentenmarks tO banks and agricultbr- al and industrial concerns These bills will be in amounts Of from 5000 to 10000 rcntenmarks each and will become due in terms ranging between two weeks and three months.

BISHOP FISKE NOW
 MAKES STATEMENT
Says There Are Not Dozen "FundamentaliStS" in Church

Utica, N. Y, Dec. 20.-The Right Rev Charles Fiske, bishop coadjutor of the central New York diocese, to- cay objected to the term "fundamen- talists' in the present controversy in the Episcopal church.
 'The supporters of the radical movement call themselves modern ists, he said in a statement, but there are not a dozen fundamentalists in the whole Episcopal church.
 Call us conservatives. liberal con- servatives, conservative orthodox, or any other name you will, but not fundamentalists. That term is applied rightly only to men of the intran- sigent attitude towards modern Bibli- cal criticism.
 Bishop Manning repeatedly has re- pudiated that attitude-the attitude of men like Bryan
 Bishop Fiske recently asserted in his annual address before the 55th convention of the diocese that faith in Christ $ deity did not rest upon faith in his virgin birth, but that the church believed in the virgin birth because il believed in Christ.
 Those who defend the faith Of the ages" he said. need not believe in the literal verbal inspiration of the scriptures; they are not obliged 10 discard belief in the wonderful revel- ton which has come to us through the prophets simply because they have come to see that the Bible was not dictated word by word from Gods IinS"

VENIzELOS IS NOT
 AFTER ANY OFFICE
Friends of Ex-Greek Premier
 Outline His Position
By The Associated Press.


 Paris Dec. 20.-Former Premier Venizelos of Greece continues to maintain strict silence on the Greek situation, but he is said by those close to him to have quite made up his mind to abstain from participa- ton in Greek politics. taking the view that the new situation will re- quire new men.
 Nenizelos. if is explained. considers the change to popular form Of gov ernment ought to be gradual. begin ming with a president elected for life and able to transmit his powers to his descendants. The population of Greece, has apparently decided to so the whole length for d real republic with a president to be elected every four years.
 M. Feni2elos has no ambition for the presidency of the eNentual Greek republic" said one of his close adhcr- ents today. He can serve his coun- try better abroad, Besides. he fsels there is an entirely new situation in Greece which calls for new men. Con- sequcntly he could not accept the office Of head of the government un- der the new republic"
 The old Nenizelos party was split in the elections between the liberal ticket and the republican,. while many Of the Nenizelist candidates share the views of the republican party as to the future form Of gov ernment for Greece. These facts. in the opinion Of the statesman's closest friends, make il impossible for him to take an active part in the proceedings which will follow the con>ening Of the new assembly. Some of them feel that his return would provoke new divisions and raise fresh compli- cations.

OF WARDEN
POTTER SHOWS IRE
MENDOUS SAVING

Helena.-The report Of M. W. Pot
ter. warden of the state penitentiary,
is an innovation and a revelation.
Usually reports of state officials are
mere, perfunctory publications, Of no
particular interest to the general pub
lie. But this document is one Of vital
interest to taxpayers, showing what
can be done under very adverse and
trying conditions in a very short
time.
When Mr.. Potter became warden
he found the institution practically
stripped of tools and machinery. There
were no horses, harness, cattle or
hogs.
There was an overdraft of $1,000
at the bank. Of the appropriation for
the quarter of March / to July 1 Of
$50, 626 only 81, 1906 was left to run
/ the prison from eApril II to July ].
The former warden had apparently
expended $52,475.15 between March
and April II.
To chronicle the condition as if ex-
listed when the new warden took
charge would require too much space
but the above is a fair sample of tn
conditions that confronted Mr.. Potter
And again it would require too mucl
space to enumerate all Of the change
that have been adopted. Only fey
5 can be mentioned.
A thorough accounting system wa
/ installed, under a competent quarter
S master.
All the prison buildings, exceE

Women as strIkebreaksrs.

The king Of Spain is believed to

calling on the women Of Spain to take
the Ilaces Of the striking postmen, the
Woman's Weekly remarks. The post
Office strike has caused great cOnfu-
sion in transportation and delivery Of
the mails and much sabotage was IN
dulged lp. The women Of Spain, who
have received probably fewer priv
leges thanain any other European
country, responded with enthusiasm,
thousands entering the service. and
they soon showed efficiency and gave
satisfaction. The move proved pOpu-
lar with the people Of every class,
since 1t added to the number Of bread
winners Of the country. So success
full has the experiment proved and
50 willing have the men been to stop
work and go on strike, that there is
talk Of applying the plan to other de-
prtments Of the government.
