N BANKING REFORM
Congressman McGleary Discusses
Basis for Circulation.
PLAN OF THE COMMISSION
Notes Issued on Commercial Assets a
Proper and Safe System--The Redemp-
tion Fund Another llIeans of Security-L
The Commission’s Plan a Safe One.
Washington, Jan. 11.—The proposi-
tion of the Monetary Commission, that
the banking circulation of the country
be based on commercial assets, under
proper safeguards, instead of on Unit-
ed States bonds, has caused some in-
quiry as to just what is meant by
“commercial assets.” The question has
been answered by Representative Mc-
Creary, of Minnesota, who is a mem—
ber of the House Committee on Bank-
ing, ard has given much study to the
subject.
“The business or commercial assets
of a bank,” Mr. McCleary said, “consist
of its commercial paper coming due at
various times. The whole assets of a
bank, of all classes, include all forms
of indebtedness due to the bank. The
distinction betwaen commercial assets
and those of other classes is that the
commercial assets usually represent
busin'é‘Ss transactions between mer-
‘ chants, and in any case consist, of notes
due within a short term. Taking, for
the sake of illustration, the reports of
the national banks of the United States
on Oct. 5, 1897, the total assets of all.
classes were $3,705,133,707. The largest
single item was “loans and discounts,"
which amounted to $2,051,009.438. The
' other leading items were the United
States bonds on deposit with the Treas—
ury to secure circulation, $227,483,950;
stocks and securities in the possession
of the banks, $208,831,503; demand debts
due from other national banks, $155,—
980,447; due from approved reserve
agents (the banks in the reserve cities
Where the country banks carry a por-
tion of their funds), $297,017,805; specie,
$239,387,702; and legal tender notes and
certificates of deposit for legal tender
notes, $149,494,929. It is the item of
“loans and discounts” which consti-
tutes the backbone of the commercial
assets of a bank. The other items are
mostly recoverable in cash on demand,
and a large proportion consists in cash
’ actually in hand.”
Available Resources.
“But how are these resources avail-
able for the protection of note issues ?"
was asked.
“Substantially all the assets of na—
tional banks,” was the reply, “except
necessary buildings and fixtures, which
stood on Oct. 5, 1897, at $79,113,954, are
quick assets, or should be such. It is
when they cease to be quick assets by
becoming unmarketable and losing
their computed value that a bank is
driven into embarrassment. The loans
and discounts include the advances
made in currency, bank notes, or bank-
ing credits, which are represented by
the notes in most cases are based upon
actual transactions in merchandise,
which constitutes a security for the re-
covery of the loan, although the mer-
chandise is not specifically pledged, as
, in the case of property represented by
a warehouse receipt. ”Where the loans
are not based upon transactions in
merchandise, they are based upon the
credit and property of both the maker
of the note and the indorser, so that if
one proves incapable of meeting the
obligation at maturity, recourse is bad
to the other.”
“How much real strength does this
give to the bank notes issued under
such a system?"
“The bank has maturing daily a cer-
tain proportion of the notes which it
has discounted. The amount thus ma-
turing daily in the United States at all
the banking institutions is estimated at
$25,000,000. A bank which needs to in-
crease its cash reserve, therefore, has
only to diminish its new loans from
day to day and husband the cash re-
ceived from those which mature. As
most— of these loans run for not longer
than ninety days, the average daily
collections cannot be less than one-
ninetieth part of its whole outstanding
discounts, and would amount in a week
to about 8 per cent. of the amount. As
many of the loans are for sixty days
and for shorter terms, the actual col-
lections would be a much larger pro-
portion of a whole volume of commer-
cial assets.”
A Safe Plan.
“You consider then the plan of the
Monetary Commission an entirely safe
one, from the standpoint of the note-
holder?”
“In dealing with the question of cir-
culation alone," answered Mr. Mc-
Cleary, “the essential question is
whether the assets are sufiicient to
cover the notes, and it is obvious that
they are many times more than suf-
ficient under the plan of the Monetary
Commission. That plan makes the
notes a first lien upon the assets, so
that they must be” paid before any
other charges are met. The plan of the
commission, moreover, provides that
there shall be kept in the Treasury of
the United States a redemption fund,
raised by a tax of 5 per cent. upon the
volume of notes in circulation not cov-
ered by United States bonds. This fund
is to constitute a common resource, out
of which the notes of failed banks are
to be promptly paid, pending proceed—
ings by the Government to recover the
amount from the assets of the,failed
bank. The noteholder thus secures the
immediate redemption of the note,
without loss or delay, while the Gov-
ernment has not only the great sum
raised for this purpose from all the
banks, but the first claim upon the as-
sets of the failed bank for the amount
which it has withdrawn from the safe-
ty fund for the redemption of the
notes.”

Columbus, 0., Jan. 12.——Marcus A.
Hanna has won. A vote on the Sona-
torship was precipitated ahead of time
yesterday noon, and Mr. Hanna re—
ceived 73 votes in both houses, just
enough to elect in the joint session of
to-day. -
The suddenness of the result was a
great surprise. In the House fifty—six
Republicans voted for Hanna. Lane

from Cincinnati, voted for Hanna.

They were the three who broke away
from the Kurtz combination.
There was a. burst of applause, when
Griffith of Union voted “Hanna.” He
is the member whose wife was so un-
pleasantly drawn into the contest.
Democrats Divided.
The democrats were not united.
They had been divided by ex-Senator
Brice’s agents, who have been work-
ing for Hanna for several weeks. Gen.
Wiley of Wooster voted for John J.
Lentz, the Columbus Congressman.
Hazlitt of Crawford voted for Wiley. .
Hess of Shelby voted for Gen. A. J.
W'arner of silver fame.
The ballot I
stood: Hanna 56, McKisson 49, Lentz 1
1, Wiley 1, Warner 1 and Marcus A.
Hanna was declared the choice of the '
House for the short term, ending
March 4, 1899. The vote in the House
on the long term was the same.
In the Senate, McKisson received the
solid Democratic vote, 19, and Hanna
17, including Voight, the .Republican
fusionist of Cincinnati. McKisson was
declared the choice of the Senate for
Senator for both terms This makes
necessary a joint ballot to—day noon,
and the result will be Hanna’s election.
He will receive his commission at once
from Governor Bushnell.
There was a grand rush of Senator
Hanna’s friends to his headquarters.
He was overwhelmed with congratu-
lations and forced to make a few short
speeches. Thus is practically ended
the most exciting Senatorial contest
ever seen in Ohio. ‘
No More Fighting.
The Kurtz combination will not
make any further attempt to disturb
the result to-morrow. Rather it is ex-
pected that on the final roll call the
Democrats will vote for a Democrat,
and some bolting Republicans will go
tothe party’s choice. The Kurtz fol-
lmving blame their defeat on ex—Sena-
.tor Brice. That shrewd manipulator
hold in Ohio
politics from now on. His agents,
Hull, Layton and Dowling, have been
working with Hannna’s managers for
months, and it was through the efforts
of Hull and Layton that the Demo-
cratic vote was divided
A remarkable scene took place in the
Senate chamber when the vote from
the House was announced. The Re-
publican Senators inspired by the en-
couraging news, stood in their chairs
and upon the floor and shouted them—
selves hoarse with calls for Hanna and
victory. Nothing like it was ever seen
in an Ohio Senate chamber.
At 12.15 the House adjourned and the
hall was used for a. jollification meet-
ing with the crowd singing “Praise
God from Whom All Blessings Flow.”
Regarding the alleged attempt at
bribery in Cincinnati, Senator Hanna
has issued the following statement:
“I deny having authorized any agent
or representative of mine to make any
offer to Representative Otis or any
other member of the Assembly. I never
sent any man to Cincinnati to see Mr.
Otis. I have never known or seen ‘Mr
Boyes’ in my life, and have had no
transactions with him. The whole
story is false from beginning to end."
Bribery Must Be Investigated.
Columbus, 0., Jan. 12.—The bolting
Republicans here issued a signed state-
ment yesterday afternoon, in which
~they declare that ,the bribery chages
must be investigated. They say that
they will vote for Hanna if the charges
are proven untrue. The statement is
signed by all the anti-Hanna members.
Blood Poison in the Razor.
Trenton, N. J., Jan. 1-2.—Davis P.
Hunt, of 1008 Clinton avenue, is in a
critical condition at his home, suffer~
ing from blood poisoning. He claims
his condition is due to a cut received
while he was being shaved. Hunt says
.he was in the habit of getting shaved
very close, and in so doing he says his
barber cut him in the lip, and that poi-
son from the razor or the soap had in-
fected the blood. ,

V‘v'ashington, Jan. 12,—Miss 'Helen
Long, daughter of the Secretary of the
Navy, will christen,the first Japanese
warship to be launched in the United
States. The ceremony will take place
at Cramps’ shipyards on the 29th inst.
The. cruiser is to be named Kasagi.

Butte, Mont, Jan. 12.-—P. A. Largy,
president of the State Savings Bank,

day afternoon. The crime seems to be
the. outcome of litigation.

BUSHNELL INAUGURATED'T-i': -
Exciting Day in ColumbnSqupositlon
to Hanna Still Confident.‘
Columbus, 0., Jan. 11.—Yesterday
was the most exciting inauguration
day ever known in Columbus. Long be-
fore noon the s'u'cets were thronged
with people, who poured in from every
direction. At noon railway officials es-
timated there had been 5,000 arrivals
since Sunday. The Bushnell badges
were in the majority. During the fore-
noon the State House was surrounded
by people yelling for Bushnell.
As it was impossible for the crowds
to get inside the Capitol Building, the
Governor was called into the grounds,
where he addressed the multiutde and
received in review one delegation after
another. These demonstrations con-
tinued until noon when Governor Bush-
nell was escorted to the veranda of the
State House. ' The floral designs were
elaborate. '
The Legislature reconvened yester-
day morning, and the inauguration of
the government occurred shortly after
noon. The inaugural address of Gov-
ernor Bushnell “as short and con—
tained no reference to the contest for
the Senatorship.
Although the balloting begins in both
branches of the Legislature to-day, it
is settled in advance that there will be
no election at that time. The Senate
will stand 19 to 17 against Hanna, and
the House will likely give him a ma-
jority of one or more.
If the opposition to-day shows the
strength it claimed yesterday and casts
all its votes for one man, there will be
an election, as it would then have a
majority in both Houses on Senator, as
it did have an organization one week
ago. The opposition still claims the
House by at least 55 to 54, which would
make the General Assembly stand 74 to
71 on joint ballot against Hanna.
Hanna Agent Accused of Bribery.
Last night’s sensation in the Sen-
atorial fight was the charge of bribery
made against Hanna’s agents. The
charge is that Henry Harrison Boice,
of New York, representing Hanna, en-
deavored to bribe J c'nn C. Otis, an anti—
Hanna Republican member from Cin-
cinnati.
To suport this charge the anti-
Hanna managers have what they claim
to be stenographic reports of telephone
’ conversations between Rathbone, one
of Hanna’s managers, and Boice, who,
it is alleged, was sent to Cincinnati to
buy Otis's vote. They also exhibit in
handwriting resembling that of Boice
a receipt for $1,750, which was to be the
first installment paid to Otis.
OFFERS FITZ $35,000.
Crobett Makes This Remarkable Offer for
a Fight. to a Finish.
St. Louis, Jan. 11.——In the second act
of his .play in this city last night Jim
Corbett' announced that he would give
$35,000 to Fitzsimmons to fight him, the
entire sum to go to Fitzsimmons if he
fails to put him out in ten rounds. The
house simply went wild. Men stood up
on the seats and cheered and howled
as if they suddenly had gone mad.
Never before in the history of pugil-
ism has such a proposition been,made
by one fighter to another. Men have
endeavored to taunt each other into a
fight, and even have gone so far as to
give or offer to give $1,000 to get an-
other in the ring. But the offer of $35,-
000 for a fight—win or lose—was un-
dreamed and unheard of.
At the close of the theatrical per-
: formance Corbett gave out his formal
challenge. In it he says:
”As a last inducement to overcome
your obvious reluctance to meet me
again, I will make that proposition still
more favorable. Tit-us: A purse of
$35,000 stands ready to be offered as a
prize for a. meeting inthe ring with
you. To this I will add $10,000 of my
own, conditionally, that you agree to ~.=.
box me to a finish. This makes $35,-
000.
"I offer this entire sum if I fail to
stop you in ten rounds—with two pro-
visions, viz.: ..
“First, That the contest must con-
tinue to a finish; and,
“Second. That I shall have something
to say in regard to the appointment of
a referee, who will not be'unfairly
prejudiced in your favor.
“This is my final proposition. Take
it or leave it. If you really want fight,
it offers. A sum 5 ready exceeding
your gross receipts in five battles. If
you want reputation, you can make it
better by meeting me than by meeting
all others together. If you doubt this,
ask the public each night when you ex-
hibit.
FITZ WON’T SIGN.
Julian Repeats That. Corbett. Must. Fight

St. Paul, Jan. 11.-——It now looks as it
Dan Stuart had made a trip to this
city for nothing when he came here to
get Bob Fitzsinimnns to Sign articles
for another fight with Jim Corbett. Af-_
ter much trouble he succeeded-in get-
ting hold of Fitz, although he is stop-
ping in the same hotel with him. The
champion told him to see Julian. When
Stuart did see the pompous manager,
be repeated what he has said so often,
that Corbett will have to beat Maher
before Fitz will give him another go.
Stuart had in his pocket articles of-
fering $15,000 for a fight to take place
on Aug. 10. Julian said he didn’t care
to see the articles, as they wouldn’t
sign unless a clause was inserted pro-
viding that Corbett would fight Maher
before he can expect a go with Fitz-
Simmons.

HE HAD NO FLAG OF TRUOE
New Proposals from General Blanco to the
Cuban Provisional Government Fram-
ing in Havana. Under Gen. Lee--Ruiz
Warned by Aranguren.
New York, Jan. 11.—-—The true story
of the fatal mission of Lieut.-Col. Ruiz
to C01. Aranguren’s camp Was told for
the first time in this city yesterday by
one in possession of all the facts. In
a word, it is said that Ruiz boasted in
his cups that‘he would bribe the Cuban
leader, was jeered by his companions
and went to certain death to make his
word good.
It began at a dinner of Spanish offi—
cers in Havana. Every one had been
drinking freely and the wine began to
talk. Some one said that every Cu-
ban had his price. Ruiz declared that
he could bring Nestor Aranguren to
Havana within a week. “You dare not
try,” laughed one, forgetting the orders
of Gomez, known to every Spaniard in
Cuba, that it meant death to offer terms
to any insurgent. Ruiz’s honor was
touched by the remark, and he made
a wager that he would carry out his
proposition within ten days. “L'et Ar-
anguren and two or three more insur-
gent leaders surrender,” he cried, "and
we will break their ranks, catch and
hang Maximo Gomez, Calixto Garcia,
autonomy.” The party broke up with
jests from his comrades at Ruiz’s
boasting.
Blanco’s Ofl'er.
Ruiz lost no time in seeking the Cap—
tain-General. He told Blanco how in-
timate he had been with Nestor Aran-
guren, and said (this was a lie) that
the rebel had made overtures to him
for his surrender if enough were paid
for his influence for the success of au-
tonomy. Ruiz went out of the palace
with authority to visit Aranguren, an
order for guides and a. document signed
by Blanco empowering him to guaran-'
tee $100,000 to Aranguren on his return
to Havana and to promise immunity to
him.
Aranguren heard of Ruiz’s coming—
to tell how would be to tell the
whole “underground” news system
in Havana—and sent a warning to him
that he must turn back. But Ruiz was
doubly pledged to see the insurgents.
He entered Aranguren’s camp--without
any flag of truce—and made his offer
in so many words. Aranfiiren told
Ruiz that he must have known his dan-
ger, and said there was only one course
for himself to follow. He ordered Ruiz
under arrest, there was a court—mar-
tial, and Ruiz was shot, Blanco’s au-
thorization was found in Ruiz’s pocket
after his death, and is now in the
hands of the Cuban Republic.
A New Proposition.
New proposals, it appears, are pre-
paring in the palace at Havana, to be
laid before the Cuban Republican au-
thorities. It is said in Havana that
COnsul—General Lee will undertake to
see that the Captain-General’s offer is
presented. What the preposition is like
no one has been able to learn. But
General Blanco said recently to a gen-
tleman who took part in framing the
proposals: “I fear autonomy was of-
fered too late. The men, the women
and the children, the very stones in
Cuba seem to hate Spain and every-
thing of Spain. My volunteer force is
of such an uncertain morale that I
cannot depend upon it from one day to
another.”
General Garcia recently paroled 300
Spanish prisoners, and a few days later
some of these were recaptured in arms
against him. General Garcia at once_
sent word to General Pando that forc-
ing these men to break their parole
was barbarous. The Cuban Provisional
Government is now considering Garcia’s
report on this incident, which raises the
question of what shall be done with 350
other Spanish prisoners in Garcia’s
camp. It is understood that Garcia
recommended a departure from the
former magnanimous policy of disarm-
ing and releasing prisoners at once.
Word comes from the Provisional Gov-
ernment that the insurgent forces were
never in better condition than they are
to-day.
WHOLE FAMILY KILLED.
Murder of a Massachusetts Farmer,
His Wife and Daughter.
Worcester, Mass, Jan. 11.——News of a
triple murder ,of which Francis D.
Newton, a prosperous farmer, of
Broookfield; his wife, Sarah, and
their ,ten-year-old adopted daugh-
ter, Ethel, were the victims, has
just reached this city. The- fam-
ily had been killed in their house,
about two miles from Brookfield Cen-
ter, on the road to Sturbridge. The
crime was discovered by neighbors,
who heard the lowing of the unfed cat-
tle and made an investigation. The
three members of the,family were
found in their beds, having been killed
with an axe.
A hired man who has been employed
by Newton is missing, and the authori-
ties are looking for him. He was
known only by the name of Paul. He
was last seen Fridaynight, just before
midnight by a. neighbor who was re-
turning from a grange meeting. He
was then more than a mile from'the
Newton hodse, and was going in the di-
rection of Brookfieid. Two young men
also saw him at about the same time,
going in the same direction.
It is believed that the murder was
committed between 10 and 11 o’clock
Friday night.
On Trial.for Killing Her Husband.
Camden, N. J., Jan. '11.—Mrs. Flor-
ence McCusker, dressed in widow’s
weeds, was put on trial here yesterday
charged with the murder of her hus—
band. Michael McCusker was shot in
the stomach by his wife on the night
of Nov. 9 last at their home at 206 Ben-
son street. He made an ante-mortem
statement in the hospital, in which he
declared that his wife had deliberately
shot him. Mrs. McCusker insists that
the shooting was'accidental. . The chief
point to be decided is the degree of im-
portance that should be attached to the
dying accusation of the Woman's hus-
band. '

Washington, Jan. 12.—The Senate
Committee on Judiciary had the nomi-
. nation of ‘Attorney—General McKenna
, to be justice of the Supreme Court un-
der consideration for two hours yester-
day, but adjourned without reaching
a decision. The committee adjourned
with the understanding that it would
meet at the call of the President. It
is stated that the failure was due to
the general importance of the nomina-
tion and the feeling that full time
should be given to it by 'the commit-
tee. The opposition in the committee
seems stronger than at first anticipat-
ed, and there seems to be a disposition
to sift the charges to the bottom.
Chinese Loan Negotiations.
London, Jan. 12.—The Chinese loan
negotiations are progressing, Great
Britain has informed China that she is
willing to find the money required and
the details are now being discussed.
The amount will probably be £20,000,-

for certain changes in the adminis-
tration of China, including'the restor-
ation of Li Hunt m to power.
$100,000,000 Trust!
Chicago, Jan. 11.-—Within the week a
$100,000,000 beer and whisky trust will
be a fact. This statement comes from
a. trustworthy sources, and before Jan.
15, it is said, the proof will be at hand.
The deal goes over the heads of all the
rival trusts, and, in embracing the
breweres of moderate capacity, will
control a field of immense proportions.
The American Malting Company is
said to be behind the deal.
The options held on the breweries
and distilleries are in such cites as De-
troit, Cleveland, Toledo, Sandusky,
Dayton, Hamilton and Columbus. This
enormous deal may be closed at any
moment.
Judge McKemia’s Nomination.
\Vashington, Jan. 11.—The Senate
ludiciary Committee yesterday did not
ronsidcr the nomination of Attorney—'
leneral McKenna to be Associate Jus-
