Washington, aur. 29—The a<i- minimratlun currency bill goes 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 banks to loan money on farm lands. This was adopted by 119 to 63. The bill, after nearly threi^fcveaka of discussion, was approved by the caucus by a vote of 163 to 9 The nine dissenters were Representatives Henry. Eagle and Callaway, of Texas; Hardwick, of Georgia; Lobeok, <»f 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 committee may offer amendments in the House." The measure will be reintroduced in the House to-day by Chairman Glass ami referred immediately to the Banking and Currency Committee, which will meet next Tuesday It is expected the bfll at once will b*» reported hack 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 summed up by Chairman Glass, who piloted it through the caucus, as follows: "The bill establishes twelve region al reserve hanks, with a capital of not less than $5,000,000 each. t<» which national banks are required to con tribute an amount equal to I ft per cent of their own capital stock and to become lialde for an addltonal 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 also are made custo dians of a large part of the reserve money of member hanks, estimated at approximately $10,000,000 in the ag gregate. They also receive the Gov ernment deposits, estimated at from $150,000,000 to $250,000,000. “Over the whole system of region al reserve banks is to be a Federal reserve board consisting of seven members. This board is given pow er* of supervision, examination and control. “The measure provides an advisory council of hankers without actual power composed of one member from each of the twelve regional reserve districts To Refund 2 Per 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 the circula tion privilege. This will mean the eventual retirement of national bank notes. The circulation privilege will thus revert to the Government itself, issuing through the regional reserve hanks on a gold reserve of 33 1-3 per cent to he provided by the hanks “The notable reserve feature of the hill contemplates a reduction of the reserve requirements of reserve and central reserve cities from 25 to 18 per cent and of all country banks from 15 to 12 per cent. The Federal reserve board is required to establish a graduated tax on the amounts by which hanks may he permitted to fall below reserve requirements, such tax to be uniform in its application to all banks. “National hanks are compelled to become members of the system under penalty of forfeiture of charters, while State hanks are permitted to become members under regulations of the Federal reserve board." % Roosevelt Blames Tango on Indians CHICAGO, Aug. 29.—The poor In dians have got something elne to shoulder now.

Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. LONDON, Aug. 29.—The revelation that the diplomatic negotiations whicn finally resulted in the Anglo-Japanese Alliance first contemplated an Anglo- Gerinan-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 Toklo printed portions of the diary, but the Japan ese Government prohibited further publication, and the Censor sup pressed telegrams sent by foreign correspondents in Japan giving de tails of the statements. The diary phows 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-Jananese Alliance, hinted that Japan was ready to ally herself with Russia if Great Britain were unwilling to become her ally. According to the diary, Baron Her mann con Eckhardstein, at the time C’harge d’Affaires of thq German Em bassy in London, made several visits to Count Hayjtahi in the spring of 1901. Count Hayashi approached I-ord Lansdovvne, then Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, suggesting an Anglo-Japanese agreement on a pol icy in China. Lord Lansdowne said he thought a third power should be included. Japan suggested that a third party Mhoulri 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 isolat* the Franco-Russian alliance. The continuation of the diarv, which might have shown why Coun* Hayashi opposed the Germany, has 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 16-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.

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 an admoni tion to the police department to stop this nuisance, and Chairman Colcord 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 interest? of others that they seem to think the throbbing of their auto engines ie 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 is 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.

TITLE TO FULTOII 4 I heard a young mother talking to her little son about his teeth—tell ing him hoiv important it is that the teeth be kept clean. ‘‘If you want to be a big, strong boy,** she said, “and then a big, strong mao, you must have good teeth. And to keep your teeth sound you must remember now, while you nre a little boy, to brush them twice every day.** The young toother told me that the youngster liked the taste of Ribbon Dental Cream and that this bad helped her iu inducing him to form the im portant daily habit. Of •ourse, she talked with lnra about it now and then to impress on him the great advantage to bis health and comfort that comes with this daily care. “Then twice a year, she added, “1 have the dentist look him over.” \ou too should use coicexE’s RiaBptfl Cental cream 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 bring marketed by William M. Mc Kenzie ami 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.

Huasein Bey. the pretty English wife of the First Secretary of the Turkish Embassy, has concocted a new tea dainty that has delighted the palates of Washington society and been nick named “The Turkish Delight.” Mme. Bey Is besieged with requests for recipes, which is as follows: Cut tn orange in half. Squeeze enough of the juice out to allow the Interior?* of large, luscious grapes to tit in It. Then pile on whipped cream ad libitum and place the whole con coction on «i tweet cake. and the tango. This is about how you do it: First voir bow gracefully—if you can- as in the Virginia ree}; then you take the walking steps of the tango and waltz them slowly, very slowly; then you tear th^ fast-going right out of the heart of the Spani5»h dances and waltz rapidly, although It i9 not necessary that you place the tip of the fingers on the head, or hang on to your belt with the other hand. You are allowed the liberty of interpolating any elaborations you may desire.

An effort will be made by the State Department of Agriculture to improve upon the methods of collecting data regarding the movement and produc tion of cotton in Georgia, and in this connection Assistant Commissioner of Agriculture Dan Hughes is working hard to arrive at some ac-urate sys* tern of handling the proposition. “It is our intention to furnish h weekly report to the farmers through the press regarding the production and movement of cotton." said Mr. Hughes. “We will attempt to obtain the co-operation of the railroads and the co-operation of the dealers and handlers of cotton in the nig inland markets. By comparison with the previous year's showing this would give us a good idea of exact condi tions. “We are in communication with Di rector of the Census W. J.

Contrary to all expectations Mr. Ferguson found the roads between Mobile and New Orleans far better than they had been reported. One stretch, “right on the very edge of the Gulf,” according to the dispatch, was as good road aa any that the transcontinental car has traversed since leaving Atlanta. As first in Georgia and then in Ala bama, too, the receptions and cele brations given in honor of the path finders in Mississippi have been of a royal nature. Leaving Mobile Wed nesday the tourists drov e direct to Pascagoula, where a hearty ovation was extended by a delegation of prominent citizens, who escorted the party through the city to the river ferry. At Ocean Springs, the stopping place Wednesday night, a similar demonstration was given. Citizens of Biloxi, Mississippi City, Gulfport and Pass Christian also manifested much enthusiasm in the great high way project.
