Making This Good Store
BETTER
Continues Western Speeches
on Monetary System and
Reform Plans.
Des Moines, la., Nov. 11.—Senator
Nelson W. Aldrich of Rhode Island,
chairman of the monetary commission,
continued his series of western ad-
dresses on finance tonight in a speech
before the Bankers’ club.
Didn’t Mention Cummins.
Deg Moines is the home or Senator
Cummins, one of the “Insurgent'’ Re-
publican leaders, but those who ex-
pitted the Rhode Island senator to
lake any uncomplimentary allusion
to the Iowan were,disappointed.
Mr.'Aldrich spoke especially of the
rowing importance of the west as
affording the best reason why people
of Iowa should demand a stable bank-
ing system. He gave more attention
than heretofore to the importance of
commercial paper in the banking sys-
tems of Europe. In discussing this
feature of foreign banking Mr. Aid-
rich said: ,
W. Lorentzen Recovers Valuable
Pieeee Lost More Than Three
Years Ago.
“In Germany all notes, taxed or un-
taxed, must be covered by an amount
of specie equal to one-third of tbe
total issue and an amount of bankable
hills equal to the other two-thirds.
Those bills are what we would call
commercial paper. They must bear
the name of two solvent parties and
must not run for more than 90 days
to answer the standard fixed for bank
able bills. In France they have a
provision that what are bankable
bills there must bear three names and
must have the same limit as to time
ns the German bills. In great Britain
the custom ia to require two names
of English citizens, one of whom must
be acceptor. Of course, you are
aware of the difference in terminology
of our commercial paper and theirs.
Our people use promissory notes,
either with a single name or with
endorsers. No such thing ah a promis-
sory note is known In the ordinary
experience of those countries. They
give a form of obligation with mort-
gages and some times with collateral,
■which is perhaps the closest approxi-
mation to our form of promissory
note. There, if a dealer sells a cus-
tomer any article, the merchant makes
a draft, upon the purchaser and that
draft Is accepted and the paper is
known as a bill of exchange. It Is
for a real transaction; and those bills
are bankable and are the foundation
of the credit system of the country
I have named."
Urges Fixed Plan.
Mr. Aldrich explained that in re-
ferring to foreign banking systems he
had no intention of urging the adop-
tion of any of them.
“In making this statement to you as
to the character of these banks I do
not want to leave any opportunity for
any misunderstanding whatever," he
said. “It is not the purpose of the
commission—it certainly Is not my
purpqse—-to try to make any part of
the American people believe that any
of these systems could be adopted in
the tlnited States; certainly not with-
out important modifications.
“The habits of the one people, the
relations between banks and borrow-
ers and hank and depositors, the 25,-
000 independent institutions in the
United States, all related to the de-
velopment of various communities
must be considered; and no system
can be adopted in this country that
does not recognize that the continuous
existence of the banks and the pros-
perity of their business must be main-
tained.
“If we have any credit organization
at all we propose that It shall be the
servant and not the master of exist-
ing hanks. Any institution or organi-
zation that we may adopt must be one
that can be fitted into the existing
system; and any changes at all radi-
cal in their nature—and I am inclined
to think that in some respects we
shall have to make some changes that
will be scientific and radical In their
character—must he made with a view
of adjusting them to our'existlng sys-
tem.”
J. W. Lorentzen has just recovered
several valuable pieces of silver that
were stolen from bis residence on
Montezuma street over three years
ago, and thereby hangs a story.
The silver, some of which had the
initials A. 1+ on it, was found by
negro woman shortly after the robbery
and was turned over to the police for
them to restore it to the owner. The
police were unable to locate the own-
er, though the silver was taken to sev-
eral persona who had lately had sil-
verware stolen. Descriptions of the
articles were published, but no claim-
ant ever appeared.
After the silver had been locked up
for several months 1n the police strong
box, the negro woman who had found
it appeared on the scene and claimed
the property, which, in default of the
real owner, was given to her. Feel-
ing that, the silver was much too nice
for her own use, she entered into ne
gotiatlons with a local doctor for Its
sale.
The silverware was taken to the
Jewelry store of W. T. Hixson for an
appraisement of its value and while
at this place was recognized by Frank
J. Turner, who immediately notified
Mr. Lorentzen. And now Mr. Lorent-
zen has his silver once more, though
he had given up all hope of ever re
covering it.

MEXICAN PRISONER ESCAPES
Tomas Navario Breaks Away From
Officers on Way to
Court.
At Juarez yesterday Tomas Navar-
ro, r prisoner, while being conducted
from the jail to the federal building,
escaped from two soldiers and has not
been recaptured. The soldiers were
taking Navarro to court shortly he
fore noon, and wil'.e their attention
was distracted for a moment the prls
oner dodged a-.vay and succeeded in
making his escape.
According to a statement made last
night by Chief Ponce (fe Leon, Navar-
ro has been held in the Juarez jail
for three years on the charge of rob-
bing the Cannon store In El Paso. The
chief stated that the man was being
taken to the federal court to be given
a hearing as to whether he should be
'returned to the United States for
trial at the time he made his escape.
Asked whether Navarro had ever
had a hearing, the chief stated that
he was given a hearing at the time
of his arrest three years ago and then
remanded to jail, where he had been
since.
A large detail of officers was
searching for Navarro last night, but
without success in locating him. If
was the opinion of the chief that he
had left town and crossed the river
Into the United States. The two sol-
diers from whom he escaped stated
that he simply disappeared ami they
do not know what became of him.

ALL IS PEACE AT HIGH SCHOOL
Wire Fencing to Be Replaced and
Whisker Removed From
Irving’s Bust.
All is quiet along the Potomac,
which in this case means the local
high school. The dove of peace has
once more perched on the statue of
Washington Irving and there's no
more cause for worry, for In the words
of our old friend Bill Shakespeare,
‘All’s well that ends well.”
The high school hoys have admitted
that they were responsible for the dis-
appearance of the wire fence that
formerly surrounded the football field
and they have also promised to see
that it Is replaced In as good a condi-
tion as It was on the night they pur-
lorned It; The Jerry Simpson whisk-
ers have been removed from the chin
of Washington Irving and now the
clean, smiling face of that famous
Itterary light beams inspiration to the*
youth of tho land from Its accustomed
place jo the assembly hall.
Thus is brought to n successful
termination what at one time promis-
ed to become an educational strike,
all of which goes to prove tbe Immense
advantage of arbitration over the old
fashioned method of knock and drag
out.
