UNSCRUPULOUS POLITICAL SCHEME
SECURING JURY TO TRY ADAMS
Washington, IV. C.. Nov. 2.—It was
learned here today from undoubted
sources that President Roosevelt is
now being urged to call an extra ses-
sion of congress to deal with the
financial situation.
The request comes front and repre-
sents the judgment of conservative
leaders In the financial world who
have represented the present situation
as one compelling action of a charac-
ter that will eradicate all ground for
suspicion of American industrial
i jj t * f
The president lias been assured
from the most reliable sou roes that
there will be opposition on the part of
the great Industries of the country to
the enactment of necessary laws to
carry out his ideas of federal control
to the extent to which lie has ex-
pounded them in his recent public ut-
terances.
These assurances are made at (his
time t;> avoid what has been repre-
sented as the most dangerous situation
which has confronted the country dur-
ing an extended historic period: that
is, the seeming growing lack of confl
dence based upon known Irregulari-
ties in business methods in some quar-
ters, and no sure and speedy means
of separating the good from the un
sound.
To this end it is suggested that the
president set congress to the *ask
first, of making such amendments to
the financial laws as will result in the
maximum of flexibility with the mini-
mum of basic change in our system
Next, rthd perhaps most important,
that the president embody his sugges
tions on corporation control into suc-
cinct recommendations for enactment
into law.
That the president has given the re-
quest for an extra session careful
consideration is indicated by those
who have been asked to lend their
advice in the matter, That the incl-
ination as to existing conditions is not
alarming has been the continuing as-
surance which has come from the
government's casual observance. \$i!$t
this in view, the president has been
told that the call for an extra session
of congress might have the reverse
effect from, that desired by those who
are urging such action: that it would
tend to emphasize in the public mind
an apprehension of unfavorable condi-
tions which do not exist.
Failing in obtaining an extra ses-
sion, those who have made the appeal
for it. have presented an alternative,
or an additional request, that the
presideni make a public statement of
the assurance he feels in the sound
condition of public credit. This. too.
has met with a measure of opposition
from the administration's advisors
Both suggestions are still matters of
'consideration, although no informa-
tion whatever is obtainable regarding
either directly from the White House.
Charles Moyer Apparently Taking Im-
portant Part in Selection of Jury
—Wife of Adams Very Cool,
. Spokane, Wash., Nov. 2.—The rou-
tine work of securing a jury to try
Steve Adams for the murder of Fred
Tyler is still in progres at Rathdrmn,
Idaho, and slow progress is being
made.
Between 25 and Mrt witnesses have
reported up to date, and it is under-
stood that a number of others have
been subpoenaed, but ns they will not
be needed until the jury is complete
they have not yet put in an appear-
ance.
Charles Moyer, who was arrested
with Haywood and Pettllwme, Is in
constant attendance in court and oc-
cupies a seat at the side of Steve Ad-
ams. He appears to lie busy and fre-
quently whispers to the counsel for
the defense. Mrs. Adams also occu-
pies a scat beside her husband and
appears to be more pool and collected
than he.
New York, Nov. 2.—J. Picrpont Mor
gan was In conference several hours
today with groups of bankers in the
picture gallery of his Madison avenue
home. In all he saw about fifteen
financiers. The conditions of the
hanks as revealed by the bank state-
ment was said to be the primary cause
of the conference, though the short-
age of currency and other matters
were discussed.
It was reported that the advfsabil
Ity of asking President Roosevelt to
call a special Session of congress to
deal with the needs of the financial
situation was also discussed. Hut as
nothing was given out hy those in at-
tendance this can only be classed as
surmise.

CLEARING HOUSE STATEMENT.
Figures About What Financial World

—Increase of Loans.
New York, Nov. 2.—The statement,
of the clearing house banks for the
week shows:
Ivoans, $t,148,265.000; increase, $18,-
741,000.
Circulation, $51,742,700: increase
$344,400.
Legal tenders, $48,184,000: decrease,
$20,512,100.

$30,001,800.

HITCHCOCK STILL MISSING
NEW YORK'S FORCE OF SLEUTHS
FAIL TO FIND ACTOR.
New York, Nov. 2—The financial
week came to a close today without
any notable developments. The stock
exchange was comparatively steady
during the day with little activities.
The runs upon banking institutions
seem to be practically at an end and
few Important conferences were held
by financiers. The decline in tlte re-
serves of tlie New York clearing house
banks was heavier than In any recent
experience, but it will lie largely on-
set by the arrivals of gold next week.
The apparent loss in the reserve was
about $37,000,(100, but $7.000,Olio of this
was due to the requirements or 25 per
cent against an Increase In deposits
of $28,000,000. This increase in depos-
its in clearing house banks apparently
represents the transfer of funds front
file institutions which have been sub-
jected to tuns.
The actual loss In cash is about $30,-
000,000, whlcli reduces the reserve on
hand to about $225,000,000.
The gold engagements increased
slightly today hy orders front Pitts-
burg and other points, making the lo-
ta! engagements to date $29,150,000.
If all of these amounts should go Into
the reserves of the clearing house
hanks It would practically restore
their supply of lash lost during the
past week. Even the diversion of a
part of the amount io other cities will
leave the bulk or the gold arrival to
go into New York banks and wilt
probably result in an increase of re-
serve next week.
Part of the decline in cash in the
fact of heavy deposits of treasury
funds has been due io the calls of the
country honks for currency. It is be-
lieved that these have been pretty
largely met and that the amount will
not be nearly as large during the com-
ing week. Reports received from va-
rious parts of the country indicate that
the system of meeting payrolls by
checks instead of in currency is being
largely adopted without any essential
Inconvenience to wage earners.
