CURRENCY BILL AMENDED. HOPK THAT C M \ \M . I. IUtl\(. WARKIN?. PUTloNs TO Ulm** V ???,.?. It For lilt i omiiilllcc and li\Mirgnii> M?> A No Agree Washington. Aug. 14.--An ametd ment designed to make it clear Mat commercial paper baaed on warehouse receipts for staple commodities would be accepted for rediscount by fed? eral reserve banks proposed In the administration currency bill practi? cally was agreed on today in the house Psmocrsth' caucus. The amendment to whl?h chairman Glass said Ihe banking snd curroncy committee would not object wan offered by Ma? jority Leader I'nderwood. Demo? cratic leaders expressed the belief that this would sat'sfy the demands among the currency insurgents. The rediscount provision, as drawn provides that the federal reserve board may define what paper shall be admitted to rediscount, but specifies that euch definition shall not include notes or bills drawn for the purpose of trading or carrying "stocks, bonds, or other securities." Representative Underwood pointed esjf that there was some spprehen ?ion In which he did not share thai the words "other securities" might bo on ws rehouse receipts for carrying farme ?* crop. Mr. Glass said this wag rot the case, but that the com? mute* regarded the words as nones ssntisl snd wss willing to let 'them be stricken out. The speakers todsy included Repre? sentatives Byrnes, Phelan of Massa? chusetts, Korbley of Indiana and cithers. Representatives Hagsdale of South Carolina and Henry, while approving the amendment, declared it did not felly meet their contention. Representative Wingo of Arkansas who has been one or the insurgents," expressed the view that he and the administration forces could "get to? gether on common ground." BYRNK.S i'h. II is Hill, EssaU* Carolina Representative Point?? Omdttloeu* tn the South Supporting Hin Contention. Washington, Aug. 14.?Representa? tive Brynea addressed the caucus to? day In opposition to the currency bill In Its present form. He stated that he believed that currency legislation should be snsctsd st this session, but that the bill In Its present form, in? stead of helping conditions in the South would be actually injurious to Southern banks. He called attention to the fact that the provision which prevents the redlscountlng of paper having s maturity of more than 60 days would make tt impossible for the Southern banks to rediscount the.r psper with federal reserve banks. Notes In the sgricultursl section of the South have a maturity of seven or eight months. That In June or July, when the farmers are asking aid. tlonsl loans the local banks could not supply the demand because they would have no paper which could be rsdlscounted with the federal reserve banks The chairman and other mem? bers of the committee. In response to a question by Mr. Brynes. stated that a note seaured by a warehouse re? ceipt for cotton could not be redls counted If the farmer Intended to hold the cotton for a raise In price because, under the construction of the commit? tee, that would be a speculative, and not a commercial purpose. Because of this statement, he urged that the caucus should amend the sec? tion V'V providing that notea secured by agricultural producta should be eligible for discount, so that federal reserve board might not Interpret the bill as did tb?- members of the com? mittee Kg ttated that the rediscount section of the hill offers re!ie| to the cotton exporter, to the manufac turer and to the merchant but discriminated agalntt the farmer because it made It Imposatble for the local bank to r? - dlsrount the notes of the farmer. He alto urged the au< gg to amend the bill by prohibiting a director In a nstlo'al bunk from being a direc tor In sny nattona' oank serving the some locality This Is in line with the roeommendatlonn made by the Pujo < o.*imlt?ee gl which Mr Itrvm s WSS a member Mr. Brynes believes that the bill In Its present f..rrn Is so cb-.i r - ly a discrimination agalnel t? ? agri rulturalists of the country, thai the caucus Is certain to amend it.

Cower believes that he has almost 1 bared the mystery Surrounding the death of George M Peurson. whose body was found lying m\ id bfldl the track of the Sea-I board Air Line railway close to the W\lie totton mills early last Sunday morning. I POM the time the body was found for, play was suspected and it was thought that he had been killed else where and placed beside the tra?'k. An immediate investigation was in? stituted which led to the house oc? cupied by Mrs. M. J. Huggins and daughter, who were ordered away from the villuge Monday. A heavy piece of iron was found on the floor, which is used by til* railroads to grip bolts that connect heavy rails, and is known as a fish? plate, weighing about 15 or 20 pounds. A great deal of blood was found on it. and it is bellevec' to b'i the In? ' strr.ment that battered our Pearson's brains. * The room in which it Is beliewd that he was killed had blood spat i tered all over the wall and th?? floor w.is literally covered with gore. Rest? ing over on the sill of the window was a piece of scalp with hi ir and blood on it. supposed to have been knocke?! over there by the force of the blow from the fishplate. A strong . magnifying glass was used on the Mood, which proved that it was the blood of a human being. Last night while working on the? se at the \V vile mill Detective Pow? er was shot at with a pistol and the bullet missed him only a fraction of an inch, digging a hole in his coat and grazing his trousers. It was a nar? row escape. An investigation was made in an effort to apprehend the person that did the shooting, but this was unsuccessful. Coroner J. Henry Gladden an? nounced this evening that he expect? ed to Issue warants for several ar? rests probably tomorrow morning. Ib? is awaiting the developments of to? night.

Wall St root Journal. " " ? "A great many trailers have boon prompted to veil the market on what is generally regarded as a very ex? cellent outlook in the Eastern States of the bei;," said a prominent South? ern cotton man. "They have done tins despite continued reports of lerlous deterioration in the Southwest, where the season has been a record one for dry and hoi weather. A short time ago cotton people were talking of s combined yield of 7*500,000 bales for Texas and Oklahoma. Now, whereas it is doubtful to what extent the crop In those two states has been dam? aged, it does not seem possible that they can raise as much cotton :?s last year, when the total production was a little short of 6,000,000 bales.

The] market la narrow and everybody that* was going to sell cotton has already done so in anticipation of rain. They WiM start to COVor as soon as the good rains ionic and that will hold the mar? ket steady, temporarily at least," said this same cotton man.
