EXPERIMENTAL FKEE 31 AIL.
Inspection Will In* .Made I nder Ap

i'oiurress
for Purpose.
Washington, March 19.?The post-,
otiice department today announced!
that at an early date an inspector will
be sent to Belton and Honea Path j
to decide which of these towns shall;
.. - i
have the experimental free mail delivery
which is to be inaugurated in a!
number of small towns in the coun-i
irv at an early date.
Congress last year appropriated I
$100,000 for the purpose of making)
experiments with free mail delivery {
in small towns. Representative Aiken;
at once asked that at least one of
these experiments be made in his
and he was uromised that
this would be done. The department
found, however, that there were
about eight towns in the third district
that are about equal in postal
receipts and population and as it was
hard to make a choice from the data
at hand it yas decided to send an
inspector who will examine into con1"

^ with a view of deciding which shall
get the service. It is understood that
there will be but one carrier in the
tO\vn where the experiment is to be
made, and that the postmaster will
have the naming of the carrier. P
has already been announced that
these experiments will be conducted
at Lancaster, Branchville and Woodruff.

Karlsruhe, Germany, March 19.?
Two months after her'trial flight, the
German military dirigible of the Zep.pelin
type, known as "Substitute ZL/'
is a wreck. Sh-s was broken in two
this afternoon while attempting a
' landing after a twenty-four hours
flight. The start was made iron
Dos, a village of Baden, where the
oalloon was stationed.
The pilots intended to return to
Bos but finally decided, on account of
the gusty wind which reached a velocity
of 45 miles an hour, to anchor
at Karlsruhe.
They had not yet finished the work
of anchoring when a terrific gust
buckled the forward half of the dirigible.
Another gust lifted the airship
and a detachment of soldiers,
who were clinging to the ropes, were!
forced to release their hold. The j
aluminum frames began to break j
away and the whole structure collaps- j
ed, the nose of the dirigible break-1
ing off.
The "Substitute ZL" made a trial1
flight on January 16, and on two occasions
afterwards made very satisfactory
endurance flights. The dirigible
was accepted February 15. Hsr
length was 140 meters, (460 feet) and

four Hundred Women and Children
Be? Him to Treat Tiiem for
Tuberculosis.
New York, March 19.?Four hundred
women and children hemmed in
the automobile of Dr. Friedmann this
evening begging him to treat them:
for tuberculosis. The crowd surrounded
the physician outside the
hospital for deformities and joint j
diseases and a squad of police reserves
had to be call-ed to make a
path for him to the hospital door.
Physicians from all parts of the
1'nited States earlier in the day gath-!
ered at Mount Sinai to watch Dr.'
Friedmann administer his vaccine,!
hut were refused admission. The only1
other medical men at the clinic i
were three representatives of the government
at whose request other physicians
were excluded. The hospital
authorities explained that the government
physicians feared that prema-;
ture reports of the clinic would be I

ficial report to tlie government. Dr.
Friedman, it is said, had not made
any request to have the others ex'cludecf.
Sixteen patients were treated at;
Mount Sinai hospital. After the
demonstration, Dr. John F. Anderson,
one of the government physicians left
for Washington, where it is said Sur- j
geon deorge Blue, of the United I
States public health and marine hospital
service will issue a bulletin
F'riday regarding the Friedmann vac
* cine and results of its use on pai-;
fents here.
Dr. William I. Sirovich State super-!
intendent of hospitals said that, he;
ias recommended to Gov. Sulzer that
If Dr. Freidmann's claim of the value
of his vaccine is borne out by results
the German physician be grant
ed a special license by the board of
Tegents.
Dr. Friedmann plans to treat 30
^ases of bone and knee tuberculosis
tomorrow, mainly among children, at t
the hospital for deformities and joint j
diseases. .
WILSON HOLDS CONFERENCES.
Senate, House and Executive came

Washington, March 19.?The house
and the senate and the president
came together informally today for
the first time on the "preliminaries"
of tariff revision. A short conference
between the president and Chairman i
Simmons, of the senate finance committee,
followed by a longer conferpnpp
between a senate sub-committee
and Chairman Underwood, of the
house ways and means committee,
laid the ground work for a series of

and plans made to attempt to reconcile
the various factions in both the

j up to the time the bills are complet!

The senate committee will begin
consideration of the complete revisj
ion bill as soon as it is passed upon
by the democratic caucus in the
house and without waiting for th?
i
l house to act upon it. The sentiment
I in both houses has developed strongly
in favor of a single tariff bill, embracing
the whole revision, instead of
a separate bill for each schedule.
Should the house adopt this plan,,
senate leaders declare the tariff bill
will hp naRsed in the senate.
Representative Pay^e of New York,
ranking republican of the ways and
means committee, said today that
while there would be a minority report
on the tariff bill presented by
the republican members, there would
be not time to present a republican
tariff measure, as the republicans

that measure is ready to be reported.
The question of the time the
new tariff law shall go into effect has
not been taken up but the opinion
was expressed that it would take ef
feet immediately upon approval. I
Clothiers, among others, have asked
that the operation of the measure be
so timed that certain portions of it
would not be -enforced until December
so as not to effect outstanding orders, j

so the government took a hand.
The Wilson administration is simply

EGYPTIAN BANKING. * J
! Institutions Young, but Numerous and
Prosperous.
The banks now operating in Egypt
: al*e numerous and without exception
! very prosperous, says Moody's Maga
| zine. They are of comparatively reI
cent formation, as previous to 1856 the
banking business was quite without :
| organization or efficient direction and
I was entirely in the hands of charaffs
(money changers).
The charaffs reaped large and illegitimate
profits, as the volume of
business handled was enormous and
j necessitated the ^exchange of great
* ' - ?j ' ~ ~~ ~ nf
! quanines 01 goia ana tumo ui
I different nation?, a large class of the
bill brokers traveled continuously between
the various towns buying and
selling foreign exchange bills.
During the time of Mehamet-Ali, who
was Khedive of Egypt from 1799 to
; 1841, it was the prevailing custom for
merchants who wished to send money
to the interior of the country or to
Syria to deposit it at the moudirich
I (perfecturs), whence it was transi
mitted through government officials,
! while among merchants of the same
! town or vicinity bills of exchange were
safe-ly handed and conditions were
safeguarded through their intimate
knowledge of each other by constant
intercours-e.
The orginal example of what may j
ho railed the hesrinnine of the olan I
real banking business in Egypt is
found in the scheme of an American
by the name of Alexanian, who, in
1848, was granted by the Khedive Abbas
Pasha the privilege of utilizing
in banking operations the capital
which for many years had lain idle
+Vio Vion^c. nf tho ' "Roir? el IWai (fl
All UUiAUO W i. WiiV J-/V*u V* A'A v
department of the government having
custody of the contested inheritances
and patrimony of incompetent persons)
upon a basis of 10 per cent anniial
revenue.
The banking operations for the use
of these funds were limited to, first
advances to the Khedive and to the j
government; second, loans to agriculturists;
third, discounts of country and
foreign bills of exchange to assist
commerce. But this plan met with
the opposition of the Ulema (the professors
of law and religion) who protested
against the interest because it
offended their interpretation of the
paragraph on intergrity and honesty in
the Koran, by which they -explain the
meaning of the salary thus:
"It is forbidden to loan money at
interest because the metal is man
ufactured by God and God does not accept
interest, but it is allowed to loan
money on mortgages on any kind of
property under the express condition
that the borrower shall lose the use
of that property during the time of the
loan ;nd the sole use of the property
shall belong for that time to the lender."
j
The unscruplous fellahs took advantage
of this interpretation of an
assumed religious principle and subverted
its meaning to suit their own
interests and they make void their
loans and refused to pay them. Alexanian,
thus rendered unable to fulfil
his engagements, was imprisoned and
did not regain his liberty until released
by the succeeding Khedive. Said
Pasha, who also restored to him a
part of his fortune.
The most powerful of all the banking
intstitutions in Egypt & the National j
Bank of Esmt. established June, 25, |
w" " ' I
1S96. It is the only depository bank j
of the government, also of the Sudan
and of the international courts, known
as the Mixed Tribunals. It controls |
the privelege of the issue of paper j
money for fifty years, from 1898 to ;
1948, which is secured by the de- j
posit of 50 per cent of the issue in |
gold coin in its vaults and 50 per cent j
in securities, whose value is taken at
par and which must be acceptable
to the government.
