WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—Harness the fulf stream, divert the cold Labrador errrent; build a giant embankment on the New Foundl^nd banks, tun the gulf etream north and away from Great Britain and change the entire climate of the North American continent and Europe. This is the fantastic scheme outlined in a resolution introduced today in the house by Representative Calder, of New York. He advanced it seriously, too, asking that congress appropriate $100,- 000 to investigate its feasibility. AboHtion of ice bergs, of cold, clam my fogs from the trans-continental jo apis,, ajaui v sj ajnoi ubodo the pretentious program. Calder’s resolution provides that the president shall appoint three naval of ficers and assign a naval vessel to con duct the investigation, make experi ments, and report to congress. The sceme contemplates enlargement of the grand banks into a mammoth i ocean “dike” by turning the gulf I stream and the Labrador current—with j their warm and icyi waters, respective- i ly so that the gulf stream would i flow northward, banish icebergs and fogs from Labrador, removing ice now | in the path of ocean leviathans, and i change the climate. The plan would \ set Great Britain shivering and Labra- | dor’s climate like Florida. MRS. WILSON AND GIRLS WILL ATTEND RECEPTION IT AMENDMENT TO PANAMA BILL OPPOSED President-Elect Says They Will Be Present if Inaugural Reception Is Planned Advocates of Free Tolls to American Ships Ready for Bitter Senate Fight (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) SAVANNAH, Ga., Jan. 22.—fn an other week Captain R. J. Davant and the board of aldermen eiecieu on last j Thursday will go into office. There will be gala times at the city hall. The mayor-elect is expected to enter th* council chamber with the retiring may or, Hon. George W. Tiedeman and wilt receive the oath office from Judge Walter G. Charlton. There will be a caucus tonight or to morrow night of the e*ght Davant al dermen elects for the purpose of de termining upon the ornce holders for the coming two years. There is a small army of applicants for these places and there is marked rivalry snown by the candidates and their frienas. It would not be surprising if’the new slate of city officers did not look something like this: * Chief of fire department, Louis Gar- funkle; chief of poli6e, M. Naugfiton; director of public works, Eldred Sim- kins; olerk of city market, T. B. Gra- con; clerk of council, Thomas Malli- gan; city marshall, Henry Dreesen; health officer, Dr. W. F. Brunner; city treasurer, Major C. S. Hardee; board harbor master, Thomas H. Laird; chief of city detectives, Michael Manley; su perintendent of scavenger department, R. J. Limeho’CYse. These are the more important offices. There is a contest on for almost every one of them. The mayor and aldermen are seeping very mum as to their choice for the places but it is thought the slate above is pretty nearly correct. Last night Mayor-elect savant was tendered a serenade by the Chatham artillery, the famous command of which he is the head. Captain Walker, the defeated candidate for mayor, also be longs to the Chathams. He and Cap tain Davant are on a committee to se cure plans for a new armory for th«, Chathams. The serenade of last even ing was a pronounced success and the members of the Chathams were most royally treated by Captain Davant and his good wife at their home on Park avenue. (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.—Former Representative Charles N, Fowler, of New Jersey, outlined to the house cur rency reform committee today his sug gestions for revision of the monetary system. He proposed that all national banks be authorized to do commercial, savings and trust company business and make note issues as Canadian banks do; that all “holding companies,” of banks be prohibited and that all banks be compelled to carry the same amount of reserve, always in gold. All banks should be under federal con trol, he contended, as banking was in terstate business, and that clearing houses should be established at all finan cial centers to be designated as “com mercial zones,” under the management of boards of control elected by tbe banks. A banker’s council to act as a court of appeals for each zone, composed of business men and bankers he also pro posed. A deputy United States comp troller would preside over each board. By having all banks in the United States contribuate from 7 to 10 per cent of their deposits to a central reserve, Mr. Fowler estimated a gold reserve of $1,250,000,000 would be created, to be held in trust for all commercial zones, and its distribution in times of need would be controlled by a board chosen from all the zones. Such a plan, Mr. Fowler told the- committee, would en able such an organizktion as he out lined to control the movement of gold to and from the United States and en force a discount rate for gold trans actions. The chief results, he said, would be to make each bank independent; to mal^e each zon<* independent of another and completely decentralize all bank credit in the United States. Which Man Are You?

TRENTON, N. J., Jan. 21.—President elect Wilson today declared that if ar rangements were made for a popular reception at the capitol building as a substitute fpr the inaugural ball. Mrs. Wilson and the Misses Wilson would at tend. The governor said the impression that the members of his family would not be present probably had arisen from his letter to William Corcoran Eustis, the inauguration chairman. “Perhaps I did not make it clear in my letter,” said Mr. Wilson today, “but I meant simply that the ladies would not be able to stand in line and shake hands.” Th e governor said that while he him self did not fear the strain of the hand shaking ordeal, he thought his family should be excused. The governor denied published reports that he and Mrs. Wilson had favored abandonment of th e inaugural ball be cause of the possibility that the dancers might indulge in the “turkey trot” and similar dances. He said he had op posed the idea of an inaugural pall chiefly because of the indirect expense to the government. “The reasons for my opposition,” he said, “are set forth in my first letter to Mr. Eustis. Iam glad to have been the instrument through which the in stitution was abandoned.” UTE INDIANS ADOPT NAMES OF CELEBRITIES (By Associated Preps.) WASHINNGTON, Jan. 22.—The In dian bureau census, recently taken of the Ute Indians, in southwestern Colo rado, who a .few days ago defied the state authorities when tney tried to arrest one of the bants, shows that the red men have in their tribe of less than 600 persons a remarkably large number of celebrities. They have an “Elihu Root,” also a “Champ Clark,” and a “Ward Beecher.” One of their men has been given the English name of Virgh Clarx, while Japanese heroes have given rise to “Oyama Cohote” and “Togo Weeks.” One of the4r women is Kate Field. In choosing surnames, the Utes have picked out some of the choicest they could find, among them Adams, \J3an- croft, Kingsley, Beecher, Brooks, Browning, Chase, Fowler. Hamlin, Har rison, Marsh, Howe, Miller, Long and Peabody. One bears the proud name of Fatty .Burr Clark, while two others sign themselves Babe Brown and Babe Deed. IT . INDIGESTION ALSO? “Pape’s Diapepsin” makes up set stomachs feel fine in five minutes If what you just ate is souring on your stomach or lies like a lump of lead, refusing to digest, or you belch gas and eructate sour, undigested food, or have a feeling of dizziness, heartburn, full ness, nausea, bad taste in mouth and stomach headache—this is indigestion. A full case of Pape’s Diapepsin costs only fifty cents and will thoroughly cure your out-of-order stomach, and leave sufficient about the house in case some one else in the family may suffer from stomach trouble or indigestion-. Ask your pharmacist to show you the formula plainly printed on these fifty- cent cases, then you will understand why dyspeptic trouble of all kinds must go,, and why they usually relieve sour, oun-of-order stomachs or indigestion in' five minutes. Diapepsin is harmless and tastes like candy, though each dose contains power sufficient to digest and prepare for assimilation into the blood all the food you eat; besides, it makes n v.iii go to the table with a healthy ap- pecite; but, what will please you most, is that you will feel that your stom ach and intestines are clean and fresh, and you will not need to resort to laxa tives or liver pills for biliousness or constipation. This city will hav e many Diapepsin cranks, as some people will cajl them, but you will be cranky about this splen did stomach preparation, too, if you ever try a little for indigestion or gas tritis or any other stomach misery. Get some now, this minute, and for ever rid yourself of stomach trouble and indigestion.—CAdvtJ \ (By Associated Pres*.) WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.—Advocates of free passage for American ships through the Panama canal have mar shalled their forces in the senate to combat favorable action upon the Root amendment, providing for repeal of the American exemption provision. The determination of Chairman Brandgee to call a meeting of the canals committee to consider the Root amend ment, has aroused the friends of the' free passage provision to a united fight against a modification of the law passed last August. Senator Root’s speech of yesterday is to be replied to at once by Senator O’Gorman, of New York; Senator New- lands, of Nevada, and others who claim the United States has full authority un der its treaties to give free passage to American coastwise traffic. Senator O’Gorman was a member of the sub-committee which put into the Democratic platform at Baltimore the plank indorsing the free toll provision and his attitude through the canal fight has been vigorously opposed to the po sition taken by his colleague, Senator Root. The Democratic forces in the house and senate are divided over the ques tion, notwithstanding the declarations of the national platform. An attempt in the senate to bring about a change in the law at this session probably will open a fight more bitter than that which attended the' original passage of the canal law. WILSON WILL ADDRSS JERSEY LEGISLATURE TRENTON, N. J., Jan. 22.—Governor Wilson today made his second move to ward obtaining reform .of the corpora tion laws of New Jersey. Having caused the bills to be drafted and introduced in the legislature the governor today asked th4 legislative leaders to call a conference of members of both houses for next Tuesday, when he will explain his lyogram for the session and urge particularly the passage of the corpora tion -bills. The governor does not expect any op position among the Democrats, who have a majority in both houses and is hopeful that the bills may be enacted before he leaves here to assume the j presidency. * Ma-ny letters have come to the gov- ernor ^commending the bills, and Chan- : cellor Edward R. Walker, who drafted j them is, as a consequent, being sug gested for attorney general in the Wil- i son cabinet. Governor Wilson read the reports al leging that some merhbers of the legis lature intended to block the passage of the corporation bills by holding public ! hearings of indefinite length. “There’s nothing to hold hearings about.” commented the governor. “These are perfectly businesslike bills. They do not affect any special interests. If i hearings were to be held we would have to hear everybody in the United States. There is nothing sensational or novel I about the bills. They simply make an ! effort to apply in a businesslike way the j principle that the whole country has j agreed upon.” WILL PENSION SOLDIERS WHO ENLISTED *N S - c - Bill Introduced In Senate And Th Bill Is Most Likely To Be Passed COLUMBIA, S. C., Jan. 22.—In joint assembly today the legislature elected W. L. Glaze, of Orangeburg, to the circuit bench, and re-elected Circuit Judge Earnest Gary. Tomorrow the houses meet in join session to choose three members of the penitentiary bo^rd and the superintendent. The house passed a resolution appro priating $5ao to decorate the state house during the corn exposition, but the measure was temporarily held up in the senate. A hearing on ,the bill to. abolish the hosiery mill at' the state penitentiary took place this afternoon, before the senate judiciary committee, which will likely make its report tomorrow. A bill to give all surviving soldiers of the Confederacy who enlisted in this state $100 per year was introduced in the senate.

Former President Visits Strik ing Girls in New York—Calls Employers "Brutes" - Will Make Further Investigation (By Associuted Press.) NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—Privations re sulting from long hours and small wages for women workers in the gar ment industry are "crushing the future motherhood of the • country,” declared Colonel Theodore Roosevelt after his visit last night among the kimono and wrapper making strikers. Most of the girls in this branch of the industry are not more than dfteen years old. Colonel Roosevelt visited them at the request of a settlement worker, who ushered him into a hall crowded with girls of all tongues. They gathered about *him eagerly as soon as they had been assured of his friendliness and told their stories through interpreters. The colonel had a characteristically emphatic expres sion of anger and sympathy as each case was revealed to him. “This is crushing the future moth- hood of the country,” he said finally. “It must be.stopped. It is too horrible for words.” A little fifteen-year-old Italian girl piped up: “If they would only let us sing while we worked, it wouldn’t be so bad.” “The brutes!” the colonel muttered under his breath. One of the cases was that of a girl who worked from 8 in the morning un til 9 at night, making thirty-six ki monos, at 4 cents each, earning about six dollars a week. She had to pay the company $32 for the machine she used. Colonel Roosevelt has been so im pressed with conditions that he said he would make further investigations tomorrow.
