PRESIDENT IS COMMITTED
TO AN ELASTIC CURRENCY.
Secretary Shaw Elaborates a Scheme
to Expand the Volume of Money 25

Congress,
WiiHhlngloii, July 20.--Since tho
semi -olllclal uttoraiico from Oyster

llmiuclal legislation Is to be under
taken at the extra session ot con
gress, coincident with conclusive ac
tion on tho Cuban treaty, thoro lias
been ronouuil speculation as to tho
exact character of legislation favored
by President Uoosovelt. It Is expect-
ed that tho president will submit to
congress enily In November a forco
ftil mcHHUgo pointing out tho necessi
ty for additional cuneiicy legislation,
but thus far nobody lias been nblo to
'definitely declare tho nature of tho
scheme the president him In mind.
1 Ailvoeatim of tho Aldileli bill are
claiming that tho president will bnck

equal force that ho Is with them, and

Our people scarcely need to bo re

Shaw's Elastic Scheme.
II Is currently rumored that dei ro
tary Shaw Is now conmiltliig with
financial expeits in an effort u draft
a bill to authorhui the Issuance of
"additional currency" by national
banks up to 26 pur cent ot the amount
of tbolr capital. On this the govern
ment would place a or, nay, C
per cent per annum. He aue or this

would have to be hli'lier than 5 per
