'Would Increase Hegular Volume and Allow Extra Issue Heavily Taxed for Emergencies. NEW YORK, Jan. 31. Secretary of the Treasury Shaw spoke on "Pending Flnan Legislation" at the annual banquet f the Missouri Society at the Waldorf Astoria tonight. Mr. Shaw said In part: There u recently reported from the committee on banking and currency a bill authorizing a maximum iboub ui u.nwu ovr 200.000.000. Every National bank In the Vnlted States should avail itself of this Reir privilege and if the authorized issue hfin;d provs relatively as responsive to the margins; needs of business as does the credit currency of Canada, there would be n additional contraction of about 30,K0. M lo bank note currency between the issue In the Fall and the minimum Issue of mid umnitr. and a corresponding $30,000,000 in. crease n bank note circulation when the crop-moving period arrives. I believe the proiji,d measure wholly inadequate. Th. i..n ..iaa that thara shall hA kent ' Milt JIU" v". " ' I gainst this new Issue the same reserve as I'Pt against deposits. i oeiren a muca nailer reserve than la requires againsi ao i..ifa nrA..! h Hiifflrlent. I'.Ir. Shaw pointed out that the proposed 'X would not nave aiaea me a-cw iw iKs when they were oeiow meir r- ired reserve last JJecemDer, Decause m r to issue currency incj mum m rae the cash reserve, whereas If the i were obtainable the currency would be needed. He conunuea. strongly In favor of the issuance or a volume of bank note circulation in excess 01 toe par value 01 me bonds deposited. I am not. however, in favor of a separata and distinct kind of r.urrenrv in iiA i-i.ti, this additional circulation should be guar anteed Dy tne uovernment and the fact re corded on the present bank note to the ef fect that the um la W., of Government bonds should be eliminated ana m lieu tnereor the note should contain the following: "This note is guaranteed by the United States." In addition there should be authorized an Issue equally large, taxed at not lees than 5 per cent, with no requirement as to re serve. It Is idle to require a reserve against emergency currency, for the exhaustion of reserve Is what makes the emergency. I doubt not the proposed legislation would prove profitable to National banks, especially elsewhere than in reserve and central re serve cities, but I do not believe it would result in any perceptible elasticity. Concerning the recent stringency In the money market Mr. Shaw said: "I realized the Imminence of a panic and 1 was asked to deposit $30,000,000 in the United States banks, but I thought that the money which was with the Gov ernment would assure a feeling of security." 0 Silvcrworkers on Strike.

' are making an Independent investigation. Bodies So Thick Rescuers Cannot Help Stepping on Them No Hope Any Escaped Alive. CHARLESTON, W. Va., Jan. 31. The bodies of nine of the victims of Tues day's explosion were brought to the surface today. The bodies were brought up by Edward Piekney, inspector of the mine, and Kolm Absolom. district mine Inspector, who were the first to go down. Their search was one of great peril. The men remained In the 6haft for three hours, and found it a veritable charnel-house. Mutilated bodies cov ered the bottom of the shaft so thickly that the two rescuers found it Impos sible to move about without stepping on them. They counted 26 bodies, but after sending up nine were so ex hausted that the others were allowed to remain until the eagre is put In working order. Sixteen more bodies were recovered late tonight. The entries will be pene trated tomorrow in an effort to recover all the remaining bodies, It is now regarded as certain no one in the mine at the time of the explosion escaped. The body of John Quack .was taken from the shaft in the bucket and the Coroner's inquest will probably be on his remains. In addition to the inves tigation by the Coroner's inquest, Chif Mine Inspector Paul and Deputy Henry RIGHTS OF MENJN UNIFORM Roosevelt Mny Recommend Law Protecting From Discrimination. WASHINGTON. Jan-. 31. If President Roosevelt can bring such a thing about. Congress will pass a law which will prevent discrimination against the uni form of the Army or the Navy. Several cases involving this question are pend ing In state courts, but the. more re cent case of the refusal of a skating rink proprietor at Plattsburg, N. Y., to admit two soldiers in uniform, which was sustained by Judge Everest, of the City Court, has given tn impetus to the movement set on foot by the President some time ago to insist that the uniform shall be recognized In all public places. An interesting phase of the Platts burg ease developed today when it be came known that Judge Everest re cently wrote the President, stating the grounds on which he based his decis ion, maintaining that the case was not one within the meaning of the bill of rights, affecting the question of race, creed or color. He frankly expressed the opinion, however, that the matter should be taken up by Congress and a bill passed making it an offense to discriminate against the uniform of the Army or Navy. This letter was re ferred by the President to Chairman Jenkins, of the House judiciary com mittee, who took a rather conservative view as to the right of Congress to deal with the question, but suggested that the opinion of the Judge Advocate General and- the Attorney-General might be sought in reference thereto, which was done. Mr. Jenkins at the sama time related two instances wiiich had come under his personal observation where proprietors of public cafes had gone to guests and notifled them, to wear their coats or else leave the premises. This was not discrimination against the guests in question, but was an ob jection to their mode of dress, a posi tion in which he thinks the proprietors were Justified. However, acting on Mr. Jenkins' suggestion, the whole subject has been referred to the Attorney-General for his action. In his indorsement Judge Advocate General Davis says: Respectfully returned to the military. Sec tlon 22 of the bill of rights of the State of New York contains the requirement: "If a person who owns, occupies, manages or controls a building, parl, enclosure or other place, -opens the same to the publlo generally at stated periods or otherwise, he shall not discriminate against any person or class of persons in the price charged for ad mission thereto. A person violating the pro visions of this section Is guilty of a misde meanor." s Section 23 provides tkat "all persona within the jurisdiction of this state shall be entitled to the full and equal accommodations, ad vantages, facilities and privileges of Inns, restaurants, hotels, eating houses, bathhouses, barber ships, theaters, musical es. public 'con veyances on land and water and all other places of public accommodation or amuse ment, subject only to the conditions and lim itations established by law and applicable alike to all citizens." The foregoing regulations are more com prehensive in their terms than Is section 22, in which exclusion on the ground of race, color or previous condition of servitude is expressly prohibited. In view of the very general character of the language used in the sections above cited. It is recommended that the papers in this xase be referred to the Department of Jus tine, with the request that it be examined with a view to determine the propriety of obtaining a review of tae decision rendered by the court of original jurisdiction.
