JAPAN IS PLANNING
FOR WESTERN TRADE
"Will Profit by Opening of Panama Can
al by Putting on New Lines of
Steamers to South America.
Tokio, Japan, Oct. 20. Japan expects
to make long strides in her foreign
commerce as a result of the opening of
the Panama canal. The ports on the
eastern coast of both South and North
America are at once opened up to her
export trade, and everything possible
will be done to find markets there for
Japanese goods.
The present trade routes from Japan
to European ports by way of the Suez
canal will not be affected by the opera
tion of the Panama route. Japanese
steamers will continue running by way
of Suez, for they are thereby enabled
to pick up freight at many ports on
the way in China, India and in the
Mediterranean. But new lines of
steamers eventually will be sent to
New Tork and to the eastern coast of
South America, -where Japan hopes to
find big markets for her china and lac
quered ware, her straw mattings and
straw braids, as well as her teas, and
at the same time increase her markets
for raw silk.
Another Important result of the
opening of the canal will be the diver
sion of much of the freight which now
is transported to points on the Pacific
slope of the United States, and thence
shipped by rail to eastern states. A
considerable economy in freight
charges will be effected by either de
spatching this merchandise direct to
New Tork from Japan by steamers, or
sending it round from San Francisco,
after Japanese steamers have called at
the Pacific metropolis.
Another important benefit to Japan
will be that of permitting her to send
direct to Brazil, and later possibly to
other countries, Japanese emigrants
who are expected to go to South Amer
ica in increasingly large numbers. Five
thousand laborers were sent to Brazil
last year; 3000 were transported this
spring, and an additional three or four
thousand departed during the month
of September all to labor in the cof
fee fields of Brazil. The steamers car
rying these emigrants now pass by
way of 'the Suez canal. They will go
by Panama as soon as the new water
way is opened.

LSDN HIS HOPE
FOR MDHEY BILL
President Expects Report in
November Senators
Not Optimistic.
Washington, D. C, Oct. 20. Presi
dent Wilson wrote (representative
Underwood, the majority leader of
the house today, expressing the opinion
that the currency bill would be reported
to the senate not later than the first
week in November and passed after
two or three weeks debate.
"I have had conferences with mem
bers of the senate committee on bank
ing and currency, both Democrats and
Republicans," wrote" the president. "As
a result of those conferences. I feel
confident that a report on the bill may
be expected not latter than the first
week in November. Most of the mem
bers of the committee with whom I
have conferred have shown themselves
keenly aware of the disadvantage to
the country of any unnecessary delay.
Confident Bill Will I'ns.s.
"I believe that the action of the sen
ate on the bill will follow within two
or at the most three weeks after the
report is made. I do not believe there
will be any attempt to delay its pass
age by dilatory tactics. Senators on
both sides realize that the business of
the country awaits this legislation, im
patient of being kept in suspense, and
display a most public spirited desire to
dispose of it promptly. The passage of
the bill is assured.
In these circumstances, I should like
to confer "with you as you so kindly
suggested, as to the action the house
should take while awaiting the re
sults. Senntorn Not Optimistic.
Senators Bristow and Hitchcock were
not optimistic of the bill's passage at
the present session. Senator O'Gor
man thought it might be possible but
that it could not be determined "to a
certainty." Senator Pomerene agreed
with the president.
One development which lent encour
agement to those who hope for speedv
action came when the president let it
be made known that he was not finally
commltted to any particular number of
reserve banks, so long as there were
enough to meet business requirements
and that the federal reserve board did
not necessarily have pt include the
secretary of agriculture and the con
troler of the currency so long as it was
government controled. Active opposi
tion has been directed at those features.
Republican leader Mann promised to
let Mr. Underwood know his position
on a recess tomorrow, meanwhile Mr.
Underwood is sounding sentiment in
the senate.
Victor Morawetz. of the National
Bank of Commerce of New Tork. en
dorsed the general provisions of the
bill before the banking committee, "but
suggested reducing the regional banks
to five or six.
"Wilson To Meet Republican.
Conferences between president Wil
son and Republican members of the
senate banking and currency committee
with a view toward making the pend
ing currency bill a non-partisan
measure will be held this week.
The president has been assured that
not only Is a report from tho committee
possible Nov. 4. but that the legisla
tion can be enacted before the Decem
ber session provided the Republicans
and Democrats come to a common
agreement on the bill.
From the first, it is said, the presi
dent has not been desirous of making
the bill a party measure, though he
feels that the Democratic party will be
held responsible for whatever law Is
framed. The idea that Mr. Wilson was
uncompromisingly committed to the
house bill led largely to that impres-.
sion, but within the last few days he
has made it known that if tho senate
will keep the main essentials which the
administration desires, changes in
harmony with the fundamentals will be
acceptable.
The president is greatly encouraged
over the possibility of getting a
unanimous report from the committee.
Senate in Executive Session.
In the senate senator Bacon forced
an executive session when senator Bur
ton moved to investigate the appoint
ment of a postmaster at Salem. Ohio.
Republicans have charged a political
deal.
The senate adjourned to noon Tues
day. In the house. Republican leader Mana
refused to consent to the ansenee of
members on official business. The
I house adjourned to noon Tuesday.
TO TEST LEGALITY
OF FRANCHISE TAX
Austin. Tex., Oct 20. The consti
tutionality of the franchise tax law
of Texas, which imposes a franchise
tax and requires payment of permit
fees by foreign corporations in order
to do business in Texas, is assailed by
a petition for a writ of mandamus filed
today in the supreme court by the At
las Powder company a Delaware cor
poration, against secretary of state F.
C. Weinert
, The mandamus is to compel the sec
retary of state to permit this corpora
tion to transact a local or interstate
business in Texas. The secretary of
state declined because the powder com
pany did not tender the permit fee and
franchise tax. The company claims it
is in conflict with the federal consti
tution, in that it is a burden on inter
state commerce. This case will test the
constitutionality of the franchise tax
law.

HERO OF LATEST
SEA DISASTER
raro-Bv
Capt James Barr. commander of the
Cunard liner Carmania, who rushed his
great liner through a raging storm, for
a distance of 7S miles in answer to the
wireless calls for help sent out by the
steamship Volturno. of the Uranium
line, which caught fire. Because of the
immensity of the Carmania's bulk and
the rough seas, Cs?.t Barr -was unable
to get his ship close enough to the Vol
turno to take part in the actual rescue
work, but his ship was the first to
reach the burning vessel, and, standing
by, took up the work of sending out
wireless calls for aid. Nine other ves
sels came up.

Situation and Reasons For
New Ruling Explained
by Bankers.
Border banks from Laredo to. and in
cluding, El Paso have shifted onto the
owners of Mexican money, where thev
say it rightly belongs, whatever risk.
there may be in handling it on account
of fluctuating values. The clearing
house has issued a circular letter to
all Mexican money depositors giving
the details of the new plan of handling
this class of funds, which plan became
effective at the opening of banks Mon
day morning.
Benson fur Ranks' Decision.
This statement says that conditions
in Mexico have injected the element of
risk into the business of handling Mex
ican money and Mexican exchange. As
the Mexico City banks no longer allow
the banks even nominal interest on
their balances, and as there is now no
opportunity for lending Mexican monev
safely, the banks of El Paso eannot
make a profit on Mexican money de
posits to compensate them for the risk,
the circular says. After giving the mat
ter serious consideration in an effort to
arrive at some basis that will allow
business to continue 'with as little in
terruption as possible, but will place
the risk where it should be on tho
owners of money, the clearing housa
banks are putting into operation the
plan of accepting the money, givinff
it vault room and using their best judg
ment in placing it with the best banks
in the republic and yet not assuming
the risk.
Rceelved For Collection.
J. S. Raynolds. president of the First
National bank. Monday explained, for
the benefit of Herald readers, the new
plan and the situation which made iS
necessary -to have a new plan. "In re
ceiving Mexican money on deposit wet
get currency, checks and drafts ont
Mexico City or interior banks of Mex
ico," Mr. Rayrolds said. "We send
them by mail for collection, three
fourths of this class of deposits being
drafts. When a man deposited a draft
or currency here in El Paso, hereto
fore the banks have given him a re
cept for it and paid him in American
money at the ruling rate, or Mexican;
money if he wanted it.
Banks Will Receive Mexican Money.
"The long continued disturbance in
Mexico has caused the banks to shift
the responsibility and liability fop
Mexican funds onto the owners of tha
money, the place where the responsi
bility really belongs. At present the
banks can do nothing with Mexican
money. But we are perfectly willing to
give vault room for it and use our best
judgment in placing it with best banks
in Mexico City and the interior banks.
The banks are nor disinclined to re
ceive Mex:can money, but are glad to
do everything thev can to further tha
trade relations with Mexico, but They
must protect themselves."
The plan is not confined to El Paso
for the banks along the border are
working this problem out in the sama
way, local bankers say.
MEXICAN PESOS BRING
HIGHER PRICE THAN BILLS
The Mexican silver peso is worth 10
cpnts more than the Mexican one peso
bill, according to the -price quoted
Mondav by local banks. The peso can
be exchanged for 45 cents in American
money, while the bill is -worth today
onlv 35 cents. The peso is worth 18
and a fraction cents, intrinsic value,
for the silt er it contains.
