one of the under secretaries of the
Department of Foreign Affairs, and
accepted generally by the European
press as directly inspired utterances

I he Democratic leaders have decided liam J. Bryan. Secretary of State, ad-
only amendments affecting the
phraseology will be accepted and
these must be approved by the Dem
ocratic committee. No chance is to
be taken on material changes. It is
expected to pass the House next Sat.

Prophesying the death of the peo
ple’s privileges through the control
by politicians of the finances of the
country under Owen-Glass currency
reform, Representative George R.
Smith, of Minnesota, Republican
member of the Banking and Currency
Committee, led the assault to-day
He used a miniature tombstone to
illustrate his argument.
Assail Board’s Make*up.
Taking their cue from him. other
Republicans assailed the make-up of
the Government board of control.
They insisted thta under the plan
proposed the finarices of the country
would be made a prize for which
every political party would struggle
and that the prize would assume pro
portion* greater than those of thp
'ariff, luxes and patronage dh'tribu-
1 ion.
c, °i en disks were painted on the
mith tombstone to represent the
• ven members of the board. Brown
disks represented the Secretaries of
Treasury md Agriculture and the
Comptroller of the Currency, who
would change with each administra
tion, and four blue disks, represent
ing other appointees of the President
for a term of years.
These membefife of ‘no reserve
board supported a column on which
was compared the financial values of
industry, agriculture, commerce and
capital, which form the basis of the
proposed now plan of finance.
Calls Plan Dangerous.
“A more dangerous and unwar
ranted method of legislation has nev„
cr been perpetrated in the face of the
fact that the country as a whole has
demanded that this legislation should
be non-partisan, - ' declared Mr. Smith
“By reason of the manner in which
the Federal board is appointed, this
bill involves the substitution of polit
ical control for control by banks.
“The power of national banks
feared by President Jackson was a
pygmy compared with the power con
ferred by this bill on the Federal
board and which i«« made the prize of
each national election.”
SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS

Officers and teachers of the Atlanta
Sunday schools have received a re

Gienolden had the advantage of
Media, because at the former place
no popcorn or pink lemonade booths

these accessories of the circus were
not lacking. The peanut privilege,
while not a lucrative one. was a noisy
one. “Peanuts, chocolates and chew

“Ice cream cones and brick ice
cream!" Thcye cries greeted Mr. Bry
an as he came up in an automobile
that was parked with half a hundred
more on the old circus lot where the
Chautauqua tent was pitched,
“There Isn't Any Elephant.”
A little boy who insisted upon hav
ing peanuts as he was dragged along
by his mother declared he wanted
them to feed the elephant.
"There isn’t any elephant. Willie,’

walled as she moved on with him to
where the crowd was in line.
There must have been several pci - !
sons under the same impression as to
the use to which the tent was being |
put, because the almost incessant ;
cracking of well-roasted goobers in ;
the rear seats punctuated the lecture
of the Secretary and at times made
it difficult for those in the exirei-i«
rear seats to hear clearly.
The really disappointed boys, how
ever, were those who carried water
for the band and the other talent to
get free tickets and those who crawled
in under the canvas who found the
show not up to expectations to the
juvenile portion of the crowd.
Lament of a C a nvasman.
One of the canvasmen who had a
seat along the side of the tent wall
surrounding the lot aired his woes
while Mr. Bryan was speaking.
"I'm sorry I joined,” he walled.
“This ain’t a regular show, and the
boss canvasman is a S wart h more
student. What he don’t know about
putting up a big tent would fill a
book. What they ought to do with
this business is take there here
Tyroleans. That boy champion is
good and is as fine a yodler as there
is in the business, and I have been
seeing concerts with circuses for a
long time way back with the Sells
show. They ought to take and con
solidate them and that band and then
go into Philly and get a good lot and
play two a day right along.
Bryan Could Commute.
“Mr. Bryan could commute from
/ Washington. We could let him close
the afternoon show and put him on
number one for the night show, and
we would get some money. These
people are amateur-. I’m sorry I
Joined out. You see the way it was.
I used to be with the old Forepaugh
show, and when I saw the tent I just
naturally asked for work."
Contrary to the general opinion, the
artists dividing time with Bryan and
holding the crowd until he arrives do
not feel particularly puffed up over
the fact that they are on the same
bill with him.
Gus Oechner, the champion yodler,
at Media, this afternoon, was con
gratulated on getting a bigger hand
than Mr. Bryan at the close of his
act.
“That ain’t much,” said another.
“Anna Umley got a better hand than
he did on her zither act.”
“No, we are not sore at his taking
the spotlight,” said one of the troupe,
after changing to street clothes and
taking his make-up off. “Mr. Graus.
our manager, will tell you we have
played with some of the best. We
don’t care where they put us on
bill.
Not for Money
.By JAMES J. MONTAGUEz
for his appearance with a traveling
tent show.
The caption over the editorial is
“The Bryan Sketch,’’ and his part In
j the show is treated as vaudeville.
_ . ., . The editorial says Mr. Bryan’s en-
sccrttarv Bryan ha* cat,lad to a French newspaper that he is lecturing j terprise especially dangerous In
this age, when the tendency of the
public is to despise diplomacy as
not for money, but simply to educate the people.
Y OUNG man, if you lack the acquisitive knack,
If your money fades Into thin air.
Don’t think there’s no chance in the realm of finance
And give away to utter despair.

futile, or at least to refuse to take
diplomats seriously.
"A few more samples of this kind
md the public will lose all faith,” it
r oes on. It is pointed out that Mr.
Bryan’s "antics” really call for an
essay on American manners and
morals, Illustrating onco again that in
the United States a political career is
esteemed as a most mediocre pro
fession, hence inferior men have been
predominant in American politics
throughout the last century, all citi
zens of marked ability and of pro
nounced Intelligence religiously keep
ing out of politics, and the really able
men going into business, from which
position they use politicians, but nev
er hold office.
Thus Tammany has prospered, to
poison America's magnificent soil.” It
also says the best Ameriran tradition
of dignity Is now entirely confined to
“out-of-the-way” Boston and similar
corners, from which types of men like
Olney and Lodge must witness the
“vaudevillian” Secretary of State,
whereas the “widest chasm separates
these responsible citizens from the j
public’s approval.”
Former Soldier of Fortune in
Mexico Arrested on Warrants
Accusing Him of Forgery,
J. Wylie Smith, a romantic figure
because of his stirring adventures as
a soldier of fortune In Mexico while
a fugitive from Georgia, slept last
night in the Tower, a prisoner. Ar
rested late Saturday on warrants
sworn out by T. M. Hamilton, of
Hftpeville, charging forgeries involv
ing $2,200, he was unable to furnish
the required ball of $1,000 in each of
two cases.
Smith was allowed the freedom of
the prison until bedtime, and him
self answered a telephone inquiry as
to the case, stating that he would se
cure to-day the amount necessary for
bail, and expressing his belief that
he would be cleared of the charges.
Smith last night told a story of
persecution at Hamilton’s hands, and
said he could prove it. He said
Hamilton, who had begged him to
return from Mexico, was trying to
find a scapegoat. Ho refused to do
Hamilton's bidding, he said, and In
consequence was again thrown into
jail. The charges brought Saturday,
Smith declared, are baseless.
“Some facts that will be interesting
are going to be brought ont of this
affair,” he promised. “I will be vin
dicated when the matter comes to
trial.”
Hamilton declared the arrest of
Smith was asked because of trans
actions in 1911, in which, he claimed,
Smith used forged notes. He said
the arrest comes as the result of
a long period of effort to land Smith
Smith Is In very bad physical con
dition. Because of this and since he

Reported Recalled From Italy
by State Department.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—Fust
Wheeler, Secretary of the American
Embassy at Rome, is said to have
been recalled to Washington to ex
plain certain charges of abuses of
diplomatic exemption from customs
duties.
It is said that the question of his
return to Rome will depend upon the
outcome of his conference with Sec

Secretary Bryan to-day declined td

Wheeler is also well known as a
