PROTECTIVE BUREAU IS ONE PROJICT As Recommended to Ashey vention, It Would Be Sup) Common und Be Roud's Menefit, le e Bvery AFHEVILLE, N. €., Oct, 16-Vigorous varfare against ticket scalping s to be waged by the American Association of Gen- eral Passenger and Ticket Agents which opened its annual convention here toduv. | While no action was taken on the matte today, it was freely discussed and from fh- tone of the committee it was perfectly evi- dent that drastic measures agalnst all forms of raflway ticket frauds would be taken by the convention, Almost 100 members of the association are in attendance. On behalf of Thomas Cook & Sons of London, England, the secre« tary of the assoclation, A. J. Smith ot Cleveland, presented to President H. (. Townsend of the Missouri Pacific a hani- some gavel, made from wood tuken from Admiral Nelson's famous battleship and mounted {n gold and sliver. Seventeen new members were admitted to the assoclation, among them being S. H. Hardwlok, general passenger agent of the Southern rallway, and F. C. Smith, general passenger agent of the Oahu railway. the only railway In Hawali. The discussion of the ticket fraud auss- tion was precipitated by the presentation of two reports, one by George Danlels of the New York Central, on antl-ticket scalvfng, the other by F. . Donald of the Western Trafic association, on the establishment of a protective bureau. The whole sublect was finally put over untll tomorrow. Mr. Daniels' report, which was complote in its detalls, reviewed the work of his committee during the last year in punishing frauds upon the rallroads and uvon the public, perpetrated by counterfeiters and forgers of rallroad tickets. The report In- dicates that leglslation against ticket scalp- ing was being pressed upon the legislaturcs of many states and that already favorable action had been taken by some of the lexis- latures. Protective Burean Recommended. The establishment and maintenance of a | bureau of protection by the railroads of the | country was recommended, the entire work of prosecuting violators of the law in re- lation to ratlroad tickets to be performed by the bureau, without reference to the | particular line of rallway against which | the fraud was committed. The money for the maintenance of the bureau and for such | expenses as it might have (o Incur is to be provided by the various rallroads in pro- portion to their mileage. The proposition involved in the report was so jmportant that after considerable discussion, which clearly Indicated the trend of sentiment, the entire subject was made a speclal order for 10 o'clock tomorrow. 8. W. Cumings of the Vermont Central presented the report of a committee rec- | ommending the organization of a life in- surance benefit, insuring the members of the assoclation. The proposition was op- posed vigorously and went over untll to- | morrow. Considerable business was dis- posed of, many of the subjects being de- ferred untll some subsequent meeting of the assoclation. An invitation was re- celved by the assoclation from Colonel J. city on Friday as the guests of the pro- | | C.

After paying ftting tribute to the enthusiastic reception accorded him Minister Wu said that as director of railroads he had the honor of organizing the first raflroad in China. He had encountered many difficul- ties, both in the transportation of passen- gers and freight, but In a measure these had been overcome. The best wethods of both American and Buropean raflways had been followed by China in the conduct of It railroads, but even yet the operation of the lines was far short of perfection. The con- duet of the freight trafc, he sald, had caused (he most serlous difficulty fn China -more dificult, indeed, than had the pas- senger traflic. Just now there was no need in who performed fn the United States ruch conspicuous. work, but, he sald, “in 1950 the general pessenger agent will be very much needed in China, and then he will be given a cordial welcome."

LEGISLATION REQUESTED OF CONGRESS Repeal of War Revenue Act, Return of Checks and Drafts When Stamps Have Been Redeemed and Pa sshment of Annrchists. MILWAUKEE, Oct. 16.—President Trow- assocla- tion opened the second day's convention by introducing Rev. Charles S. Lester of Mil- waukee, who delivered tha nraver. The convention immediately got down to busl- ness by receiving statements upon the call of states by bankers from various sections of the country, who reported in five-minute speeches the general condition of business The general trend of the statements showed that the business was in a thoroughly sat- istactory condition. Following the call of states came a dis- cusston on practical banking questions. A. B. Stickney, president of the Chicago Great Western Rallway company, was then introduced and read an interesting paver on “The Medium of Exchange and the Banking Function.” The trust section of the American Baok- era’ asscclation convened fn its ftth an- nual session here today. Howard Green of Milwaukee welcomed the delegates and Willlam G. Mather of Cleveland, chair- man of the trust section, responded. Sec- retary James R.

What Bankers Want Various resolutions Which were intro- duced yesterday and referred to the execu- tive council were ndopted by the conven- tion today afier being approved by the council. These included resolutions asking congress to repeal the war revenue act relating to stamps, etc.; legislation for the punishment of anarchists, etc.; the return of drafts, checks, etc., where stamps have been rodeemed; indemnifylng senders of unsigned certificates which may be stolen.

In the discussion of Mr. Phillips' address Edward J. Parker of Quincy, 1., remarked | that the papers revealed to him one of the reasons why the Krenchman emigrates less than other nationalities. He believed this to be explained by the fact that the poor borrower of France Is so readily ace commodated, much more so than the poor borrower in the United States.

Too Muel . THURSDAY, Relationship. A feature of today's session wae the ad- dress delivered by Lyman J. Gage, eecre- tary of the treasury. Mr. Gage expressed the opinion that “there is too close an intimacy between the government's finance and our commercial affair but he added that "It is a comfort and satisfaction to note that at the present moment the in- Jurious effect of such intimacy appears to be at a minimum The speaker urged that the present is a most propitious time for enacting reasonable reforms in the cur- rency and banking law “In every country,” said Mr. Gage, “‘there {s a more or less intimate relationi between government finances—febt and taxation— and the general commerclal or industrial affairs of such country. In our country that intimacy has been and is injuriously close. Memory readily recalls those periods when our whole financial and industrial progrees has been severely checked while great ques. tions relating to the condition of the tre ury or the standard of money have awaited decision. While under our system the peo- ple conetitute the government, yet in its organization the government is a legal entity, separate, distinet, Impersonal. Within it propet sphere of action It I8 sue preme, but it canfiot transcend these limits without harm to itself and injury to the people. In other worde there are laws su- perior to the government laws which it cannot defy and escape penalty. They are not written laws, but they are discoverable, these higher economic laws which have a way of welf-operation, blessing the obedient and banning the violator. Of these all men and all governments should be afrald and to their mandates respect should be :hown." South American Methods, Mr. Gage, by way of Illustration, peated the substance of a conversation be | had had with the financial minister of a South American republic, whose govern- | ment encouraged banking facilities by de- | positing its surplus funds subject to call with eight banke, all of which have branches. These banks are permitted to Ia- sue notes to circulate as money, limited, however, In amount by their relations to | capital and by the percentage of specle | which they are tequired to carry agalnst notes issued. Asked why his government did not make the banks secure their notes by pledging government bonds, thus en- larging the market for the government se- curities and lowering the rate of Interest on the public debt, the South American re- plied that “this apparent advantage might | prove fallacious in the end. We consider the bank currency entirely straight to the holder as it now is and to require what you | suggest would involve a tle-up of 80 much of the bank capital, all of which we think ought o be avallablerto the uses of industry | and trade. We think general industries and business affaiis skould be involved to the | smallest degree possible with government | finances, It 1s doubly important that gen- | eral business should be protected from rather than exposed to the perturbations in | government finances when the latter are | under stress aad strain. We deposit our { idle funds among tbe elght banks and they | serve as an fmportant aid to industrial ace tivity, while they are always subject to our call when needed. His Financial Convictions, Commenting on the apparent reasonable- ness of the South American's statement Mr. Gage eald: “On three particulars, legal tender paper money, banknote issues and fhe keeping of ‘the public moneys, we pay | no regard to the opposiug argument. Nevertheless the;reasons met forth by that fAinance minister, for adhering to & policy so radically at yariance. with our.own are de- serving of deep consideration. Have we not been guilty of an enormous economic waste by reason of our peculiar treasury system? “Permit me to summarize into geveral brief propeeitions an expression of my own financial convietions: 1. 1 belleve it to be most desirable that the demand llabilities of the government known as legal tender notes should be pat in the way of retirement and cancellation. 2. 1 belleve that this can be aceomplished without any burden of Interest cost to the public treasury. 1 belleve that our system of bank note circulation can be and ought to be so modi- fied as to make it more responsive to com- | merclal and industrial requirements, with- | out any increase of risk to the bill holder, {41 belleve that beyond acting as a | guardtan “and trustee for the people in relation to natlonal banks the governmont guaranty to bank note {ssues should cease, . 1 belleve that the public moneys In oxcess of a reasonable working balance for “daily ‘use should be deposited In natlonal banks. That a simple and ‘safe | Bystem of disiribution of funds can be devised 1 have no doubt. 6. 1 belleve that In perfods of natlonal peace and prosperity the public revenie #hould be somewhat In excess of public expenditure and that the surplus reyenue should be applled to the reduction of the pubile debt. After presenting some statistical facts showing the present strong and satisfactory condition of the national finances Mr. Gage in conclusion sald: “'Looked at from the standpoint of true esmanship, it would appear that the present is the most propitious hour in all our history and as favorable as any period we may hope for in the future, to enter upon reasonable and judiclous measures to eliminate all eloments of financial weak- ness which experlence has brought to light and to perfect our now faulty system of currency.’ FATAL FALL DOWN STAIRS George Thompson DI of Injuries OCTOBER 17, CRURCH' 1901. to 0] unn It Action of B viston for Divorcees is Not Con- carred In<Dr. Mann Goes to North Dakota, SAN FRANCISCO, routine business w Oct. 16.—~Considerable transacted at todav's sesslons of the triennial Episcopal conven- tion.

A proposal to refuse te consider the question in any form was strongly supported, but this, it was argued would fail to show proper respect to house of bishops. Finally, the referen: of the subject to a joint committee was agreed upon. No further action will be taken until the meeting of the general con- vention in 1904, The house of deputies unanimously elected Dr. Cameron Man of Kansas City to be missionary bishop of North Dakota.

CHICAGO, Oct. 16,—Martin D. Madden has been selected as chalrman of the com- mittee on arrangements for the fifth an- nual convention of the Natlonal Live Stock assoclation, which will meet here the first week in December. There Is unusual in- torest In this meeting for the reason that the convention. will take up seme impor- tant questions which will. be referred to congress dfrect from the convention. The stockmen, 1t Is said, will ask congress to appoint a special committee to investigate conditions on the public ranges and report the ranges in such a way that the conflicts between sheep and cattle grazers may be averted, Ranges are becoming so over- crowded that the struggle for grass is re- sulting in almost daily conflicte, In which bloodshed is becoming altogether too fre- quent. Another jmportant question to be consid- ored is a bill providing for government in- spection and the tagging of all woolen manufactirers so as to show the percentage of “shoddy" and cotton used in all alleged woolen fabrice. These and other questions are expected to draw to this meeting the largest gathering of stockmen In the his- tory of the country. Mr. Madden will se- lect a committee of prominent business men to assist him in providing entertain- ment for the visitors.

ST, PAUL, Minn, Oct. 16,—The cavture of the bandits who held up the Great North- ern Overland exprese at Wagner, Mont, July 6, decuring $43,000 in bank notes, offictals of the Great Northern Express company say, has been seriously delayed by the announce- ment of the capture at Nashville of Annie Rogers, alins Maude Williams, supposed (o bo conmected with the gang. ~Before her arrest the Pinkerton agency and police officers had- laid plans which seemed to assure a speedy capture of.the robbers President and General Manager Ellio‘t of the express company sald today that no further news had been recelved at head- quarters and that he did not look for the immediate arrest of the gavg “This woman, according to my advice Mr. Elllott sald, “was in communication with one of the robbers at New Orleans When (hat man read the accounts of her capture in thie morning's papers he prob- ably disappeared at once, 1f her arrest had not heen made public we would prob- ably have secured him and nerhavs the rest of the men. Thefr capture will probably come sooner or later, but it has been de- lased “The published accounts of the arrest of the Rogers woman are correct. She walkad into the bank and asked to exchange part of the stolen notes for others of a lareer denomination.
