Washington.—!t ts learned from undoubted sources that President Roose‘velt is now being urged to call an extra session of congress to deal with the financial situation. The request comes from and represents the judgment of the conservative leaders in the financial world, who have repre sented the present situation as one compelling action of a character that will eradicate all grounds for 819» picion of American industria! methods. The president has been assured from most reliable sources that there will be no opposition on the part of the great industries of the country to the enactment of the necessary laws to carry out his ideas of Federai control to the extent to which he has expounded them in the recent public utterances, These assurances are made at this time to avert what has been represented as the most dangerous situation which has confronted the country during an extended historic period—that is, the seeming growing lack of confidence based on known irregularities in business methods in some quarters and no sure and speedy means of separating the good trom the unsound. To this end it is suggested that the president get congress to the task, first, of making amendments to the financial laws as will result in the maximum of flexibility with the minimum of basic change in our system Next, and perhaps most in importance, that the president embody his suggestions on corporation control into suecinct recommendations for enactment into law. MUST WORK OR STARVE. Government Will Not Furnish Food Cheyenne for Ute Indians o River Agency. Washington.—As a result of the conference at the White House be tween the president, Secretary Garfield of the interior istant Secretary Oliver of the war department and Commissioner of Indian Agencies Leupp regarding the renegade Ute thdians on the Cheyenne River reservation in North Dakota, a decision was reached to continue the policy of furnishing the Indians with work, and, in ease of their failure to take advantage of the opportunity, to leave them to their Own resources, Troops will be kept there for police protection, The government says Utes may have work if they desire it, but that if they make no effort in their own behalf the government will not assist them. The Indians have been paid the annual allowance of $18 per eapita from their own fund and it is understood that this is practically exhausted. These Indians are the same band who have been making trouble for the whites for the past forty fifty years. or Morgan Has a Chat With Some of the Leading Financiers, New York.—J. Pierpont Morgan was in conference several hours Saturday with groups of bankers in the picture gallery of his Madison avenue home. In all he saw about fifteen financiers. The condition of the banks as revealed by the bank statement was said to be the primary cause of the conference, though the shortage of cur rency and other matters were discussed. It was reported that the advisability of asking President Roosevelt to ca a special session of congress to deal with the needs of the financial situatton was also discussed, but as nothing was given out by those in attendance, this can only be classed as a surmise, Admiral Evans Guest of Honor. New York.—Admiral Robley D. Evans, who is soon to depart in com. mand of the battleship squadron for the Pacific, was the guest of honor at a notable dinner given Saturday night at the Lotus club, A large numberof distinguished gucsts participated in the greeting to the admiral, and the speakers included, besides the guest of honor, Bishop Potter, Senator Chauncey Depew, exSecretary of the Treasury Shaw, Seth Low, Admiral Coughlin and Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia university.
