NEW BRITAIN ~*ILY HERALD. MONDAY, AUGUST 3, 1014. WILL ISSUE CLEARING HOUSE CERTIFICATES. Bankers Believe Coualry’s Gold | Suppy Should Be Protected. | New York, Aug. 3.—The clearing house at & meeting today decided Lo issue clearing house certificates to meet’ the currency situation brought about by the European war crsis. The decision to issue certificates was, reached after a general discussion of the foreign situation and its bearing on business conditions here. It was the unanimous opinion that in view of the foreign situation every means should be adopted to Dprotect the country’s gold supply. It was voted, there- fore that for the present and until further notice the association place it- self upon a certificate basis. Additional Resolution Adopted. An additional resolution was adopt- ed making available in payment of balances all forms of currency issued on authority of the national govern- ment. This indicates the desire by the bankers to use freely the currency is- sued to the national currency associa- tion to the fullest extent for the re- { quirements of their cofrespondents and the needs of interior exchange. Meeting Largely Attended. The meeting was largely attended, practically all of the sixty-one bank- ers and trust companies being repre- sented. This is the firgt emergency measure taken by the association since the panic of 1907 when similar action was taken. Secretary McAdoo of the treasury department, who came from Washing- ton last night to attend a conference with New York bankers, left for the capital at 9:30 o’clock today to attend meeting this afternoon with finan- civrs from various cities.

Brokers Reconcile Themselves. Stock eXchange brokers reconciled themselves today to the probability of a prolonged suspension of the market here. W. G. Van Antwerp, a member of the board of governors, said he be- lieved it probable the exchange would remain closed while the European war was on. Although: immediate resumption of business is not expected, brokers have hesitated to disorganize their ma- chinery by dismissing employes and cutting off private wires, for in case of a sudden re-opening of the ex- change they would be unable to trans- act business. Most of the contracts with the telegraph companies for pri- vate wires contain a 'clause permit- ting the lessees to discontinue the { hour so that nearest grocer or mail them to us and we will return a Fly’ Swat. service on thirty days’ notice. Such nctice was given today by several of | the wire houses, with the expectation that should trading be resumed in the meantime the wire would be re- ergaged. 1 Situation More Acute. The general situation has been made more acute by the poor business which ‘Wall' Street experienced for many months. More than one house in the | street, according to general opinion, | has not made expenses for the last year or more. “But there won't be a stock ex- i| change broker,” said Mr. Van Ant- werp, “who will whimper. They will glve New York an exhibition of their fine spirit.” { Special Committec Meets, ! The special commfttee of five | brokers appointed last week, met early | today, and it was said would continue | xn session each day during the time ' that the exchange is closed.

PROPOSE TO AMEND PANAMA CANAL ACT| finally House Considers Legislation to Pre- vent Suspemsion of Transatlan- | tic Shipping During War. | Washington, Aug. 3.—Legislation to prevent suspension of transatlan- tic shipping and an embargo on the movement of American crops during | hostilities in Europe, was on the pro-| gram for consideration in the house | in the form of a proposal to amend the Panama canal act so as to per- | mit foreign ships to take American | registry. The amendment was to be | pressed for immediate passage. Its chief features the requirement that a ship must be | five years old to qualify for American | registry, authorize the president 0 | suspend provisions that all watch of- | ficers must be Americans, and sus- pend the requirement for survey, spection and measurements by Unit- ed States officers of foreign built ves- sels admitted to American registry. While no opposition to the bill was anticipated, yet the democratic lead- ers appeared to be unanimous in the determination that all conversions of foreign built and owned vessels into Amierican registry must, be bona fide. International law requires that all ships of the United States registry must be owned by American corpora- tions or American citizens. The amendment has been agreed upon by President Wilson and demo- cratic leaders, who determined to hasten its enactment, It would take effect immediately. would eliminate | CAN RATTLES AT THE ROCK.

SOME KNOWN FACTS ABOUT RHEUMATISM There are mani things that are still unknown about rheumatism. The treat- ment of it is still far from satisfactory. Doctors realize this but nobody is: more fully aware of it than the sufferers them- selves. A tendency to rheumatism once estab- lished, the pain often returns with every chmxe of weather, showing that the poison ig still in the blood awaiting favor- | able conditions to become active and cause trouble. One fact is known . and . acknowledged by all medical writers and that is the rapid thinning of the blood when the rheumatic poison invades it. Building up the blood i the best remedy for rheu- matism as the enriched blood 1s able to overcome or throw off the poisons of the disease. For this reason rheumatic suf- ferers should be interested in the success which Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have had in the tr¢tmenc of this painful disease. “‘Building Up the Blood,”” will be sent ree on request by The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, Tt contains directions regarding diet, baths and hygiene for rheumatic ‘patients Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are sold by all druggists everywhere.
