[Special Correspondence of Tho Evening, Post.) . t W ashington -, September 3.—Hearings be fore the Senate Committee’ on Bunking aiid , Currency have proceeded far enough to es tablish to the. satisfaction of those„ln at tendance, that the minds of' the Democratic members, ot :that body, seven in number, are far from being a, unit as to the Kind of leg- , islation. the committee should favor. The . Republicans are a. uuit against the pending tNU as it stands, and, having .no initial responsibility to force them into the open,, are biding their time. On the Democratic, , side. Senator Owen, chairman of the com mittee, Is, the ouly Democrat committed- to , the general principles of th e . Administra tion bill; Senator Shafroth has shown some , leanings in tlant direction. Senator Hitch cock, seems opposed to the measure, and the remainder of the committee ia Open- minded, as far as outward appearances go. However, it is extremely doubtful, if a vote ■were to be taken on the Administration bill jkt.thls time, whether it would stand any show of getting out of the committee. In fact, there is a decided disposition In the committee against undue haste which makes lt appear doubtful at this juncture Whether an early report on tho Currency bill can be expected by the Senate. The croBS-eramlnatlon of the few witnesses al ready heard by the committee lias covered practically the who'.e fleld of the currency, and its ramifications, various forms of hanking activities suitable for a national system, and related topics. The Senators seem to be seeking all the general infor mation they can get and have been ‘well satisfied, up to this time, to receive a lib of ' banking from tho practical bankers appearing before them If their activities up to this time are indicative of a genuine ignorance on their part on the currency question, it readily may be foreseen that tt will take no little time ahd study for thp Senators- to satisfy themselves on a currency bill.

Those who have nJKtleipatwr ln the cross-examination of witmes^e&^fip to this time— including Senator*/ Shafroth, Owen, Reed, and Hitchcock -hnve invariably re turned from the issue a central-bank, raised by- the bankers, UK the alternative of having the Government^do tlf?> work which such an institution might be expecte. to perform. It would not b e \ a l r to si that, fn making an inquiry of \ujiM rfnd, the Senators wish to be understood as fa voring tho propositions which they ad vance.- Their mode of inquiry and thoir questions themselves have been far too gen eral and too broad to warrant sunh an a s sertion, hut the striking fact remains that they have each touched upon the question of Government note issues and dwelt upon it at somo length. On the other hnnd. the varied form of questioning engac/ed In by the committee; .the flic t that each Senator seems to have an undeveloped theory of hls own upon which he is seeking light, and the uniform willingness among the prictk-al bankers to answer any question propounded, has convinced the Senate Committee, ‘at least, df the entire good faith of the bankers, anti lias resulted in good feeling between thp committee and tho witnesses, which, in ef fect. has given some consldnrflble substance to the platform of conciliation and help fulness upon which the bankers took their stand wlieti they came to VVhshlngton. BANKERS PhEASED WITH THEM WORK. While the bankers’ committee Is far from convinced that it has jnjade. any converts to Its suggested at»es4meats tp the Ad ministration bill, and while the examina tion has been largely along the line of a ci ntral bank, rather than the Administra tion Currency bill Itself, It Is satisfied with the trend of events to date, and the impression among its members is that ho time is being wasted in Informing the Com mittee concerning the bankers' irlealB. \The testimony and the cro8s-exsminatton to d a te / said one of the leading members of the bankers' committee, to-day, “com prises a primer on the fundamentals of a currency system and on banking iii general. We f.re glttd to contribute our pirt to this in'cstisation, lielit-ving that, the4 prirttrd t>-s- tlmony will go far toward educating the country to the practical defects of the pres ent system, and pointing out the remedies, as we see them. In this regard, every ob jection. from whatever sourco, brings forth tin answer as ciear ns vve can make it.

William MoAdoo,, Chief Citx Magistrate, explained and upheld^ to-day the wofking of the new rule by which ho is seeking to protect disorderly worhen from the preying of professional bondsmen. This rule p r o - , vldes that these * women, when ’ arrested, shall be held only tor the Night Court. The Chief Magistrate was’ prompted t° dis cuss the rule because one Bessie Muller, through the ignorance of a police lieuten ant, was held, on August 26, in bail to appear before Magistrate Freschi1 the next day in Jefferson Market Court, where she could not be tried. When arraigned, she was obliged to give bail a second time for her appearance before the Night Court,, and Magistrate Freschi declared that the new rule seemed really to play into the hands of the professional bondsmen. This led. the Chief Magistrate to make his explanation. He said that the Muller case had been due solely to the mistake of the police lieutenant^ before, wham- the: woman was taken when arrested. :Mr. Mc- Adoo regards his efforts to deal with such cases as most important, because abuses in the past have been flagrant, and because he is especially anxious to establish the suc^ cess of the new regulations for disposing quickly of this peculiarly difficult class of arrests. Transfer pf cases of disorderly women has the object in view of putting thena solely before the Night Court for trial by magistrates specially designated by Mr. McAdoo. Suoh cases, consequently, do nofc run the risk of being scattered among the magistracy in general in the Day Court. The Chief Magistrate hopos by..this., rule to beget continuity of policy In dealing with disorderly women. RULE IN FORCE A MONTH. The ruling was adopted by the Board of Magistrates on July 1.,' It provides specific cally that women arrested for loitering shall! be taken before the Night Court, or held for trial there. The Chief M agistrate hopes, by giving sole jurisdiction, to the Night Court, to rednco the number of cases In which the women must give bond, since its hours embrace thoBe ih which the large majority of arrests of wonosen are made Mr. McAdoo declares that if there is an unwarranted increase in the nymber of women who are obliged to give bond, it will not be necessary for the Board to re peal the present riile, as the law gives him power to extend the hours of the Night Court, and he will not hesitate t o order an extension. Mr. McAdoo is keeping careful wateh upon this question of hours fpr the Night Court, so far as they affect tho number of wotfton requiring to give bond. In a le t ter to Magistrate Freschi about the case, the'C h ief Magistrate %ai.d that six women only were bailed in ttieTnonth of, July for appearance at the Night Court. To make the working of the ruling plainephi all its con sequences, the Chief Magistrate has ordered a specific and separate report to be made, by the clerk of the Night Court of all cases of women who are bailed to appear there. This report contains name, address, hour of arrest, name of bondsman, and amount of bail of every woman who appears in the Second District Court, either as hav ing been bailed at station houses, or, after arraignment in the Night Court, having given bail for appearance at a subsequent session, on charges of soliciting, loitering, keeping a disorderly houses o r yiolation of the Tenement House law. rOLlCE ASKED TO AID. After the Muller incident, the Chief Magistrate • wrote a letter to Rhinelander Waldo, Commissioner of Police, explaining that efforts were being made by disorderly house keepers, shyster lawyers, and extor* tibnate bondsmen to break up the practice of the new ruling, because it injured their businesses. He told the Commissioner that ''Stupid” police lieutenant had been re sponsible for the case of the Muller woman, in holding her fpr appearance before the Day Court, where she could not be tried. Mr. McAdoo added that he was not going bach to the old system of indiscriminate trials, and asked the intelligent support of the police in this respect. After saying: that he had written ^. flat ter to Magistrate I’reschi calling Ills -aft' tentipn to the facts in the Kuller case, Mr. McAdoo made the following statem ent: \Under the law I am given the power to designate certain magistrates to sit in the Night Court for Women, to the end that there may be consistency and continuity o i policy In dealing witK' these unfortunate people after their conviction, as, for In stance, that fines shall not be imposed, probation used wherever advisable, proper cases sent to reformatory ’j.stitutions and the workhouse,' and that th6 Tenoment- Hpuse act shall be Carried out, having in view the protection of the honest and inno cent dwellers In congested tenements from coOtamination with this vice, and having regard to other things. • “All who ltno.-w of this, work are agreed * is best that all. of these cases should be handled by Magistrates specially designated for th a t purpose, and sha:ll not. therefore, go into the day court, where all members of this Board do service in rotation. The vicious womrri and the unspeakable tnefl who make money out of them are. of course, o.'-osed- to this procedure. The owners ( 0f nasty hotels, and bed-houses do not lllce it. On the other hand, fn carryIngr out this policy, we have t6 be on guard against the reappearance of the professional Bonds man. \In 1912 the Legislature gave me the discretionary power of closing t'ho Night. Courts at 1 A. M instead of a later hour. They used to keep open until thres o'clock In the morning. The Magistrates com.-- plained that between one ana three o’clrx?lt they did not have much, if anything, td do,, and that the physical' and hefvous tension on them was very great. Under those cir- cuitistanfes. I ordered the courts closod at 1 A. M.. keeping t i e closest possible watoh for results, so far as compelling women to take out. bonds was concerned, that is, those who are arrested after 1 A.

I t is Mrs. Houghton's belief that the modern school must supply the greater part of that spiritual and ethical training which girls of another day got in the home arid the. church. leased, she gave ball for her appearance iu tho day court a t 9 A. M. It turned out, In. practice, that a very smail number of them availed Jthemselves ot this right. The new rule carries the ca.se after 1 A. M. to the night court on the succeeding night. The woman Is taken to the station house, arraigned in the day court, and held for the night court. \‘Tliero was one other great objection to hor appearance in the day court. Her case had to come up amidst the general business of the court. Honest wives claim- mlng protection from bad husbands, decent women making complaints, had to be mixed in with this flotsam and jetsam of the under-wor Id. Moreover^ the' day 'court has enough business anyway without these cases. Then, too, in the Night Court for Women, for the first hour, between 8 and 9 o’clock, the m a g istrate has little if anything to do, sp. that these cas m c$.n occupy his atten tion before those freshly arrested art) brought in. k m D R A M A “ IVItorp, Ig n o r a n c e is B l i s s . ” Report hath it that the original of “Where Ignorance is Bliss”—an English version by Philip Littell pf a comedy by Ferenc Mol- nar, which was presented by Harrison Grey Fiske in the Lyceum Theatre last evening— von great success in Vienna. The presump tion therefore is that much of whatever lit erary or dramatic virtue the piece may have possessed in the vernacular oozed out ih the process of adaptation, and that the per formances of it in the Austrian capital was infinitely better -than here. There are. in deed, indications hore and there ° in t.he English of wit and humor that have m is carried; and also of a measure of psycho logical tnBight, as well as of freshness of inventions But neither time nor space need be wasted in speculations concerning the pos fesslonal bondsman. During the month of July only six wQmon gave bail at the sta tion house or the Day Court for appear ance a t the Night Court, and up to Septem ber flrst only six. It is obviously so un wise to scatter the cases of these poor struinpots of the streets to the Night and Day Courts that it would not be necessary to repeal the rule adopted by the-Board H f conditions existed such a s judge Freschi seems to believe there do, for I could ex tend the hours of the Night Court to any hour of the morning, roluctant as I natu rally would be to add to the hardship of the night work of the\ magistrates who pre side there. • ■ ; ■ - REPORTS A It 13 MADE DAILY. \Evory day there is reported to mo at this office the name of every woman who has given bail, the charge against her, tho name of the bondsman, and the time that she was arrested, th e case before Judge Freschi, which gave rise to the com ment reported to have been made by him, had -nothing whatever to do ■with this rule, other thfan to show its wisdom, Tho woman in nueBtion was arrested ‘ five o’clock In the afternoon, taken to the station-house, and stupidly bailed by the police officer in charge for appearance next morning in tho Day Court, when she should have been held for tho Night Court, whi- was then but a few hours from convening. This necessi tated the woman giving bond again in the mornlng'-for the next ni£,'<t, owing to po lice stupidity, to which I have called the attention of Commissioner Waldo. \We liave achieved such practical re sults from the policy pursued in reference to women ln these courts and in the better condition o f the streets, in suppressing an indecent exhibition of harlotry, and in a consistent and impartial enforcement of the IftWB against vice, that I fcrave the support of all-good--citizens against those who are insidiously, from motives too well understood, trying to disarrange the pro cedtire which how works so well.\ MODIFY COTTONSEED ftlTABANTINE ^ --- 7--V Iiwnot-tHtlonH to Be P e r m i t t e d from T n i i M e x ican State*.

It will b e a sad commentary on- .pres* ent-day tendencies,, the Society believes,.if the site is not ehojen, and ground broken for the city on the Jersey coast that is to answer to the name of the International .Vorld Centre of Conscience. So well has Hendrick Christian Andersen, the World's Conscience Society’s head, done his worit, that few of the problems that are bound to arise In\ projects of this sort remain to be solved, From hls head quarters in Paris, where for days and days he toiled to design a complete World's Peace City that would appeal to Andrew Carnegie’s eye—but did not—have evolved maps, plans, designs,, and other things es sential to his World’s Conscience Gity, and these he has put into a book, together with a history of the architeotUro of the world, from the standpoint of conscience. It is said th a t the Anderson World’s Con science City is a great big improvement upon his W orld's Peace City design> with which critics found fault because ot the meagre amount of spade that the designer had assigned, to moying-picture shows. The report is th a t three entire city blocks in the World's Conscience City are set aside for thiB purpose, but it is difficult to verify this\.

What 1 am glad to say that under this rule j ]jaa 8urvived the treatm ent ot tho adapter, there has been no reappearance of the pro- ^ tho producer, and the actor Is unprofitable, meretricious, and—except a t rare Intervals- tedious. As enacted, the story Is as incred ible as the atmosphere with which it is en veloped is unwholesome; I t is true th a t the piece is farcical in its nature—that its main object is laughter-^-but tbe spirit of it is none the less abomlnablo on that account. The presont moralj.and intellectual degen- era'cy of the theatre is more strongly ex emplified in frivqlous plays which proffer glldcij vjije as a, proper source of a.muse men£tWan in the clumsy and brutal verities of sensational melodrama. There is no gross coarseness, no very violent offonce against the old-fashioned proprieties, in this latest foroign importation, but it Is ma larial throughout. Briefly, it is a cynical skoteh of a theatrical household, or the artistic temperament.-' It professes to show how a doting hnsbaad might be beguiled by passion into trusting a false wife even against tho evidences of liis own senses. The hero is a famous actor, who has m a r ried a famous actress, notorious for her m a rital escapades. Before the honeymoon is over he is tormented by doubts, al though he still madly loves. To satisfy' himself onco for all, he wooes his wife ih the disguise of a cavalry general, and re ceives an assignation la her box at the opora on a night whon he is supposed to be acting in another city. At the meeting —which proceeds with a charming intUf-. ferenco to the supposed presence of the imaginary audience—die gets sufficient en couragement to give him ample assurance of his wife's untrustworthiness. And in the final act he endeavors to overwhelm hor by a declaration ot hlB identity. But she is too sharp for him, avowing that she knew him all the timo, In B p it e of his disguise, and only paid him tit-for-tftt. in testing him as he had tested her. Moreover, she So plays upon, his emotions- that finally ho is fain to make peace by vowing that his faith in her is unbroken, and that lie would not believe either his owf ears or eyes to her discredit. So tho play ends exactly where it begin. f t L O R P B'wny & 48 St. Evs. at 8:13. !
