"Prospects for the approaching
Conference for the Common Good are
exceedingly bright and encouraging,"
according to a statememnt issued
Tuesday. "The movement is steadily
gaining in weight and momentum.
Messages of sympathy and cheer are
being received from all sides. The
hearty support and willingness to
help which are everywhere being
manifested are most hopeful and
stimulating. As one of the pamphlets
which is being widely circulated by
the committee puts it: "In every man
there exists a willingness, even the
desire, to help, could be found an
easy, practical way to go about it.’
"We love our State and want to
serve her. Service is simply love in
harness. South Carolina is blessed
with many constructive men and wo
men, and all are proud of our pro
gress in many directions: but there is
a great deal of waste and lost matter
in the movement for State better
ment.

Dec hires That Decline of Government

Waged by New York Banks to

Secretary McAdoo issued a state
ment Monday flatly charging that the
decline of government two per cent,
bonds to 95 and a half—a new low
record—was due “almost wholly to
what appears to be a campaign wag
ed with every indication of concerted
action on the part of a number of in
fluential New York city banks to
cause apprehension and uneasiness
about these bonds in order to help
them in their efforts to defeat the
currency bill.'’
Ranks throughout the country own
almost entirely $7?.rt,SKL\i :;o of the 2
per conts. Their market value to
day was approximately $::u,nOojMui

FIGHT DFADI.Y BATTLE
CT STOM OF THKIK TIUDB.
♦
Man Had Qacatkiiu-d F'aithfalara* of
th« Woman and Hh« Demanded tbo
Teat of Blood.
Samuel Palecia and his wife. V'n-
centalia, are in a hospital in Denver,
both suffering from wounds susialn-
ed in one of the strangest duels ever
fought in this country. The husband
had accused the woman of unfaith
fulness to her marriage vows, and
she demanded that they settle it as
they do among the tribes in Mexico, -
from which both come, by a fight to
the death with knives. They fought
until the police, summoned by neigh
bors, broke hrough the locked doors,
separated them and called an ambu
lance. Each received many, but not
dangerous wounds.
When the woman demanded the
duel in defense of hc-r name, and the
man acquiesced, they locked the
doors of their home, cleared an en
tire room of the scant furni'ure it
contained, took off their ou «i gar
ments and began the rarvinv m ilch.
Palecia had given h's w.te tne
longest and sharpest knife, and he
also had asked her to tie one of his
arms behind his hack, in order that
they should tie more evenly matched.
\s the result the woman got in the
first blow, a sla“h nero** the b»i' k of
•lie man s fre* hand. Hrm whbh the

"2 \t th*' end of twt-rCy years.
'h<. government will pay at par and
Interest all 2 per cent, bonds which
at that time rvmaln outstanding. In
view of the fact that the 2 s have no
due date, and are payable after 1930
only at the option of the government,
the definite promise of payment at
the end of twenty years is distinctly
beneficial to the holders of the 2 per
cent, bonds.”
The secretary spoke with amuse
ment of the grave statements sent
out from New York to the effect that
if the currency bill shall pass and
government deposits are put in the
federal reserve banks, the 2 per cent,
bonds now used to secure deposits
will be thrown on the market and
their value thereby impaired. As
only $1 3,900,000 of the 2’s out of a
total of $7S0,SS2,130 are used to se
cure deposits, they can be used for
additional circulation.
"Nearly all of the 2’s are owned
by the hanks. If the price is marked
down, it is because the hanks them
selves are putting the pressure on the
market and depressing the value of
their securities. The fault is their
own. It would seem that part of
good sense and good business not to
do it." Tlhe secretary expressed the
hope that the process, if continued,
will not he carried to a point where
the department will have to take ac
tion
"There la and always haa been a
narrow market for the 2 per cent,
