THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. Freddy Film M CUT-BUTS I frfprrllrtlt >•1*. toUrntrlotMi N«n H^rrl'-r Always Watch the “Wiff’ I Bill Goes to House at Once With Clause Cutting Reserves, En larging Circulation. WASHINGTON, Aur 29—The art- ministration currency bill goe* to-day to the House bearing the indorsement of the Democratic caucus, ■which add ed two amendments to the measure. One changes the requirement as to reserves, turning loose more money for circulation. The other extends from nine to twelve months the time that loans on farm lands may run. The provision permitting national oanks to loan money on farm lands was adopted by 119 to 63. The bill, after nearly three weeks of discussion, was approved by the raueus by a vote of 163 to 9. The nine dissenters were Representatives Henry, Eagle and Callaway, of Texas; Hardwick, of Georgia. Lobeck, of Ne braska; Buchanan and Fowler, of Il linois; Neely, of Kansas, and Sisson, of Mississippi. After agreeing to the bill, the cau cus adopted a resolution by almost unanimous vote, declaring the bill to be a party measure and that “mem bers of this caucus are pledged for the hill to its final passage without amendment, provided, however, the banking and currency rommitte** may offer amendments in the House." The measure will be reintroduced in the House to-day by Chairman Glass and referred immediately to the Banking and Currency Committee, which will meet next Tuesday. It is expected the hill at once will be reported back to the House, which Mr. Glass predicted would pass it within ten days, many Republicans having indicated their purpose to sup port it Glass Sums Up Measure. The measure as it stands after adoption by the caucus is summer! up by Chairman Glass, who piloted It through the caucus, as follows; The hill establishes twelve region al reserve banks, with a capital of not less than $5,000,000 each, to which national hanks are required to con tribute an amount equal to 10 per rent of their own capital stock and to become liable for an additon&l 10 per cent in case of call. This, it is estimated, will give the regional re serve hanks a combined paid up capi tal of $105,000,000. These regional reserve banks aiso are made custo dians of a large part of the reserve money of member banks, estimated at approximately $10,000,000 in the ag gregate They also receive the Gov ernment deposits, estimated at from $160,000,000 to $250,000,000 "Over the whole system of region al reserve banks is to bo a Federal reserve board consisting of seven members. This board is given pow ers of supervision, examination and control. "The measure provides an advisory council of bankers without actual power composed of one member from each of the twelve regional reserve districts To Refund 2 Pec Cent Bonds. “One Important provision is for the gradual refunding, for a period of twenty years, of the United States 2 per cent bonds into 3 per cent Gov ernment bonds without tl e circula tion privilege Tills will mean the eventual retirement of national bank notes The circulation privilege will thus revert to the Government itself, issuing through the regional reserve banks on a gold reserve of 33 1-3 per cent to be provided by the banks. “The notable reserve feature of the bill contemplates a reduction of the reserve requirements of reserve and central reserve cities from 25 to IK per cen^ and of all country hanks from 15 to 12 per cent. The Federal reserve board is required to establish a graduat 'd tax on the amounts by which banks may he permitted to fall below reserve requirements, such t«*ix to be uniform in its application to all banks "National banks are compelled to become members of th** system under penalty of forfeiture of charters, while State banks are permitted to become members under regulations of the Federal reserve board."

Strong impetus was given the movement to stop the terrible noise In the city from cutting out auto mobile mufflers by an Interview Fri day by Councilman A. R. Colcord, chairman of the Council Police Com mittee It was given as on admoni tion to the police department to stop this nuisance, and Chairman Golcord said he was confident he was sup ported in his position by the entire Council. "We passed a law against this pub lic disturbance and for a time It sub sided," said Councilman Colcord. "There was no reason for the police to have ever let up. "I don’t blame the business people of the town for protesting against the action of persons who dart back and forth through the streets so unmind ful of the comfort and Interests of others that they seem to think the throbbing of their auto engines is the power that drives the universe. “A stranger observing Peachtree street at times might thing it was the starting point on a speedway, there is the frenzy of so much ex ploding gas. Yet we have allowed this condition to go on for months, in what ls supposed to be our quiet, orderly business district, without complaint. “I like to see the joyriders get their full limit of pleasure, but they should go out to some country road to make their engines sputter, and even then they should be careful not to disturb any one's sleep. It is foolish and useless to cut out irtuf- I flora on the i«.ved city streets and, what is more, it ls against the law. "I am glad to see an agitation to stop It. I think satisfactory results will be secured without much ado." Chief Reavers’ determination to stop the nuisance, backed up by the Council, means Immediate and con certed action. Through indifference the law was allowed to fall into dis use. but the general opinion is that its revival will mean a more rigid enforcement than ever. Dr. Broughton May Aid in Revival Here Pr. Len G. Rroughton, of I^ondon, formerly pastor of the Baptist Taber nacle In Atlanta, may assist Dr. Caleb A. Riley, of the Central Baptist Church, in a seriea of evangelistic meetings the latter part of September. Dr. Brough ton will be in the city at that time and J >r Ridley has stated that he will try to get the services of the famous preacher for at least one week of the revival. In preparation for the services, Dr. Ridlej will begin a series of sermons next Sunday night. His first subject will be “The Human Soul, and How It May Re Lost." The large chorus, consider ed one of the best in the South, will lead the singing. / I GUESS I DIDNTl GIVE THAT BiQ GUY WOT wur CGMiN T him ij l,/"? ☆ House Probers Find New Kind of Graft WASHINGTON, Aug. 29 —The House Lobby Investigating Committee to-day stumbled into a new species of petty graft at the Capitol. It was the “gov ernment document" graft. Allen A Irvine, a second-hand book dealer, summoned to testify in behalf of Representative McDermott, confessed that he bought public documents, many of them worth $1 apiece, from mem bers of Congress who were supposed to distribute them to persons in their dis tricts, but did not. Irvine declined to give the names of the Congressmen from whom he bought the documents.

Aug. 29.—Fire at l a. m. destroyed the old home of C. R. Simonton, on Rome street, which was occupied by James Dempsey, chief of 1 ’.irrollton’s Are department, and Mr. and Mrs. John Rocker. The tire had gained such headway when dis ■ vered by an old negro that the family had a narrow escape, jumping from the windows. Cut Out the Muffler Cut=0ut The Cut-Out of a motor car is a Noisy Nuisance used by a certain class of motorists to make a 10-candlepower engine sound like a Regular Racer. It is popularly supposed to increase the power of the motor 15 to 25 per cent by letting it breathe audibly. It does not do that, or anything like it. Any gas engineer will tell you so. If your engine is a regular engine, it will pull all you want it to with the Soft Pedal applied, in the city or out of it. If your engine isn’t a regular engine, unmuzzling the ex. haust won’t help it. What it WILL do, however, is to wake up honest people who are asleep, and make the thin hold on life a burden to sick people, and frighten pedestrians into spasms and horses into fits and make your car generally an obnoxious and lawbreaking nuisance. There are other things, of course, but these are enough. You recall the Emperor Napoleon in one of his battles send ing for the captain of the artillery and demanding to know why he had ceased firing. “Sire,” replied the officer, “I have eleven reasons for ceas ing fire.” “State them,” commanded the Emperor. “My first reason,” the officer replied, “is that I have no more powder.” “Well, you needn't mention the other reasons,” rejoined the Emperor, or words to that effect. There might be a dozen good reasons why mufflers should perform their office of muffling gatling-gun exhausts within the corporate limits of Atlanta. Most likely there are all of a dozen reasons. But if one of those reasons is that the cut-out is against the Law— Well, you needn’t mention the other reasons. Cut out the Cut-out. JAPAN REFUSED TO MAKE PICT Late Count Hayashi’s Diary Says Great Britain Wanted Alliance Against France and Russia. TITLE TO FlILTBN L McKenzies Get Order Restraining Randall Heirs From Mining in Residence Subdivision. A temporary injunction restraining the heirs of P. H. Randall from min ing- in the residence subdivision in Northern Fulton County, which is now being marketed by William M. Mc Kenzie and George M. McKenzie, was granted late Thursday by Judge George L. Bell. The injunction was obtained to es tablish that the McKenzies have a clear title to the land, doubt having arisen because of an old deed which kept for the Randall heirs a right to one-half the mineral interests in the land. The petition of the McKenzies sets forth that there are no valuable min erals in the land, and that the on’y value in the property lies in its em ployment for residence purposes. The record of former deeds was destroyed, according to the petition, in the fire of 1842, but it is maintained that the title is clear nevertheless. The land in question, 85 acres in lot 216 of the Seventeenth District of ' Fulton County, was purchased about | June 24. 1912, from Thomas L. Eng- I lish. The property was divided into small tracts and placed on the mar ket. Bolling Jones Takes Vacation Trip East Bolling H.

Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. LONDON, Aug. 29.—The revelation that the diplomatic negotiations whicn Anally resulted in the Anglo-Japanese Alliance first contemplated an Anglo- German-Japanese Triple Alliance and that Germany was largely instrumen tal in starting them, but was shut out by Japan, is made in the diary of the late Count Tadasu Hayashi, ex-Jap anese Ambassador to Great Britain and twice Foreign Minister, part of which was recently published. The Jiji Shimpo of Tokio printed portions of the diary, hut the Japan ese Government prohibited further publication, and the Censor sup pressed telegrams sent by foreign correspondents in Japan giving de tails o? the statements. The diary show* the British Gov ernment, under the Premiership of the late Marquis of Salisbury was «n favor of the inclusion of Germany in the alliance, but that Japan op posed it. Count Hayashi. in order to bring about the Anglo-Japanese Alliance, hinted that Japan was ready to ally herself with Russia if Great Britain wece unwilling to become her ally. According to the diary, Baron Her mann con Eckhardstein, at the time Charge d’Affaires of the German Em- baggy in London, made several visits to Count Hayashi in the spring of 1901. Count Hayashi approached Lord Lansdowne. then Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, suggesting an Anglo-Japanese agreement on a pol- fey in China. Lord Lansdowne said he thought a third power should be included. Japan suggested that a third party should be omitted from the alliance because Anglo-Japanese interests were identical. Great Britain, how ever, for some time clung to the idea of a triple alliance, according to Count Hayashi. as she was anxious for an alliance Germany in order to isolate the Franco-Russian alliance. The continuation of the diary, which might have shown why Count Hayashi opposed the inclusion of Germany, has not been published.
