lng the conenants by which It was
agreed that the Imperial Company;
t-hould refrain from doing business In!
this country, other than the purchase
of loaf tobacco, and that the American
Tobacco Company should refrain from'

But two of the three States which
hove taken preliminary steps to In?

were representi-1 here to-day nt the
time set for the conference of their
Attorneys-General. A telegram from,
Attorney-General Williams, of vir-1

Mr. blckett said that none of coun?

"First of all," said Mr. Blckett. "we
want to familiarize ourselves with the
proposed reorganization plan. We do
not know as yet whether we will op?
pose It or not. Although we are In?
clined to think that we will do so,

Situation Intolerable.
A1 torney-Genernl Blckett declared
that the situation was so Intolerable
that the tobacco States would no long?
er submit to anything but a disinte?
gration of the monopoly. ' Why, It was
almost rebellion with the abused grow?
ers in some sections In which tho night
riders took a hand." ho said.
"The trust fixed tho price, and that
the growers had to accept or the al
ternntlvo of letting their crops rot."
Asked about the report of contem?

'It1 but that 1 actually have written

"that Shakespeare's weakness lies in
his complete deficiency In that highest
sphere of thought, In which poetry em?
braces religion, philosophy, morality

acters have no religion, no politics, no
conscience, no hope and no convictions
of any sort."
Chaloner said that he felt that it
was time that such literary sacrilege
should be called down, and wrote two
sonnets against Shaw, one called "A
Morus Bashaw of Letters," and the
other "Kluellen's Curse."' In the first
of these, he holds up Shaw to ridicule
for his attacking Shakespeare thus:

Shakespeare dared attack,"' und In the

Some time ago I began the use of your
Swamp-Root with the most remarkable:
results. For years 1 was almost a wreck
and was a great sufferer. The doctors
.who treated me made me believe that my
great sufferings were due to female trou?
ble. I was bo bad id times I would faint
away and, had sinking spells. Finally a
new doctor was called in, and he said that
I had kidney trouble and gave me medi?
cine, of which I took several bottles. I
obtained some relief from this, but 1 was
getting weaker all the time; I could not
tdeep and suffered so much pain that my
husband and children had to lift ine in
and out of bed. After this time two*
friends sent me word to try Swamp-Root,
which I did, and I am glad to state that
the first dose gave me great relief. After
taking the third dose I was helped into i
bed and slept half of the night. |
I took several bottles of Swamp-Root, i
and I feel that I owe my life to this won?
derful remedy. The two family doctors
said I could not live three months. I
j would have to be helped in and out of
i bed ten to twentv times every night.
[After taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root
for two days I was entirely free from get?
ting up and could sleep sotindlv.

directors, as In tho original plan, six,
members ox-ofllolo, \iz., the governor:
of association, his two deputies, the
Secretary of tlx- Treasury, the Secre-:
tary of Commerce and Labor arid the
comptroller -of the Currency.
Kuch of the fifteen llnnncinl dlstrlc's
of tin- country will elect one director;
twelve otheis will be elected by the
shareholders; and these twenty-seven
will elect to the board twelve addi?
tional members, who shall not !)?? of?
ficers of banks, but may be director, in
them, and who shall fairly represent
the Industrial, agricultural, commercial
und other Interests of tho country. |
The completed plan provides that of
the twenty-four directors In tiio Itittcr
groups not more than three mn> be
elected from any one district. As an
instance, the effect of this provision
would bo to limit the Slate of New
York, which hits about one-fifth the
banking capital of the country, and
which Is tho seal of the great financial
Interests, to four directors among the
thlrty-nlnc who are ele >ted.

ed members (the other four being the
governor of the association, hl6 two

night of Removal.
The original plnn provided that the!
governor of the nssoclutlon be appoint?
ed by tho President of the United States
from a list of names submitted by tho
board of directors, and that the Presi?
dent should ulso hove power to remove'
the governor. The revised plan re j
serves the right of removal to a two
thirds vote of the board.
One Important change Ik the admis?
sion to membership of state banks nn-1
trust companies which ronform to a,
required standard. A State bank or
trust company to be eligible must con-j
form to the same standard as national'
banks, regarding tho relation of Its
capital to the population of the com-;
munlty It serves; regarding the rc-j
serves to be hold against deposits, and'
must conform to a certain standard re-j
gardlng examinations and reports.
Bequlrements for reserves to be held]
against deposits are mado the same
for national banks, Stote banks and
trust companies, but tho present re?
serve requirements of national banks
are modified to che extent of requiring
no reserves against time deposits, ex?
cept for the thirty days preceding their
maturity.
This provision, w.hloh resembles
those In the trust company laws of
some Stutos, Is expected to make It
more profitable for national banks to
hold time deposits in competition with
trust companies. Banks of all classes
will have the full use of time deposits
without reserve restrictions until
thirty days from maturing time, when
standard reserves will bo required.
a provision that the association
shall discount for nny member notes
and bills of exchange arising out of
commercial transactions Is further de- I
veloped In the line of preventing the
granting of loans upon securities. Tho ,
notes and bills eligible for discount;
by the assoc'utlon are restricted to;
Buch notes and bills of exchange as
are "Issued or drawn for agricultural,
industrial or commercial purposes, and
not for carrying slocks, bonds or other
Investment securities."
This Interpretation will exclude'
brokers' note's for carrying stocks. I
Banks under this provision, It Is said,
will (be encournged to carry their
auxiliary reserves In commercial paper,
Instantly convertible Into cash, lnstoad
Of In call loans on tho stock market. |
National banks will have the right
to establish savings departments and
to lend not more than 10 per cent, of
such deposits upon productive real es?
tate, In loans not exceeding 50 per
cent, of the value of the property. The
national bank net now prohibits such
loans, but there Is n constant demand
f6r them, especially In the West.
Savings deposits In any of ' the
banks In tho association shall he sub?
ject to thirty days' notice before with?
drawal, and shall be covered by a re-'
serve of 40 per cent, of that required
for demand deposits In the same lo-1
cnllty. I
For the reserves of the association,
It Is proposed that 60 per cent, of its
demand liabilities, Including deposits
and note issue, shall be covered by gold
or other lawful money, with a pro?
vision that Wit en over the roscrve falls
below fiO per cent, the association Is
hound ,r) l,n>' to the government a
specinl tax. which increases In rato In:
proportion to the deficiency.
The operation of Chls in such in-1
stuncos Ih ?xpocted to stimulate an
Increase iu tho rute of discount, and
to bring In gold until the reserves
again become normal.
May Act na Clearing House.
Another new provision specifics that
any local association may assume and
exercise the powurs und functions of
a clearing house. In this reap -t some
existing clearing houses are expeoted
to become local associations. All lo?
cal associations will be required to
appoint examiners, which le a devel?
opment of tho movement for local
cleurlng houso examiners, now being
promoted throughout tho country.
One criticism of the first plan was
that thero wae no way to remove a
bank from an association. It has been
provided that a local association may
suspend a bank which fulls to main?
tain its reserves or comply with other
requirements of the low.
It lo also provided that the note
issue of the association shall at all
times be covered by at loast one-third
In gold or other lawful money. Any
notes, however, Issued In excess of
S900.000.00U must either be covered by
lawful money In full or pay a apodal
tax at the rate of 1 1-2 per cent u
year. Any notes Issued In oxcess of
$1,200,000,000 not covered by lawful
money will pay a tax of 6 por cent.
Mr. Aldrlch, In transmitting the plan
to the commission, suld that the sys?
tem of reserves and taxes provided Is
expected "to Insure tho maintenance
of adequate reserves by tho associa?
tion and otherwlBO to provide such ef?
fective regulation of discounts and
noto Issues as would enable tho organ?
isation to respond promptly at all
times to normal or unusual demands
for credit or currency without danger
of undue expansion or Inflation."
The features outlined are the only
substantial changes In the plan, as It
was submitted tentatively to the com?
mission last January by Mr. Aldrlch,
although detailed qualifications arc In?
troduced at many other points.
