The suicide o? General Count Nogl

the dead soldier represented u st.iti

principle than is common under Occi?

born, and as a Samurai he died, car?

devotion to the in mo: y of his master,
?which Is summed up In that "curious

MAY USE MONEY

More Than $60,000,000 Not Re?
quired hy Government Now
in Treasury.
[Special to Tho Tlmes-nlspalch. J
Washington, September m.?Tho
United States Treasury Department
bus oil hand at this lime exactly $G?.
000,000 more than It ein use. and It
is understood that the gu?stloh of
using thin money to move tlio orops
of this year Is being considered by
Secretary MncVeagh and President
Taft, and that a decision 'n the mat
ter may be reached within the next
fOW days. There uro strong reasons
for bcllevln - that action favorable to?
ward putting OUt some of this largo
amount will be agree,! upon.
sip h action win attract notice, for
' the reason that for four or live years
ijiis policy has not been followed.
When Leslie M. Khaw was Secretary
of the Treasury larn? amounts were
used to move the crops each year, hut
nlon ?ieorge ft. Cortelyou succeed. 1
1 him he did not favorably regard tho
plan, hence it was discontinued.
The matter possesses special Inter?
est at this time for several reasons.
This Is presidential yeur, and it I *
pointed out that the opponents of the
administration might charge tho any
such distribution is political; further,
that this is a year of amazingly largo
crops, and that th^ banks will ap?
parently neod help.
Financiers und Treasury ofll'dala lu
Washington are closely following the
situation, iind those who are on the In?
side declare that .Secretary MacVeagh
favor's the plan, that he realizes th?
! hard problem on hin hand.-, b' cause of
tho political questions which would be
Involved. Not alone des he have to
decide whether to l-.an the money out
in tho midst of one of the most ex?
citing political campaigns which the
country has ov-r known, but he must
aleo decide, If the money Is put out.
how he Is going to distribute u. Thin
amount?$60.000,000 -must be so equit?
ably and judiciously handbd that no
mistakes will be made, elthor political
or otherwise- If the money goes to
the ),!g financial centres he will be
accused of catering to and favoring
the mon->y power.
It Ii said that the. present Condition
of the Treasury and the fact that many
banks are beginning to show plgns of
heeding ftnanel.il assistance to move
the l>lc crops of the present yea: m
? make It almost certain that the
government must make a distribution
of part of the public funds which are
not now needed. This Is the v ? w o<
the hebt Informed then here. As > fat?
ed, there Is on hand In the Treasury
something like 150,000.000 mo-e th.n
Is now required to meet the govern?
ment's n<"ds. This ts actual money.
It represents credit of four times; that
sum. or J??O.OOO.OOO. In other words,
there Is practical!) withdrawn from
channels of credit in this country at
this time J240.O0?.00O moir than there
ought to b?.
It cannot be said that nie banks are
plmlud for funds at this time, but
It looks as If the b!r' crops would g|V*.
them a heavy load to carry. The r.'
serves of th" New York banks, for
stance, aro beginning to show the ..f
tefcis of the demands from the Interior
