H - i s u ir ir y& Speaker Cannon Antagonistic to Elastic Currency Measure. Do Bays the Cry for Additional Financial LogUlittion Coition from KiiHtoru Spec ulator) nnd Should Not lto Hooded by Congress. ' Viiigton, Juno 29. The sennto lcailftiiAvlio have been in recent conferences with a view of agreeing upon a plan of ilnaneial legislation to bo urged at tho next session of congress, are worried over the rather direct information that Hepresonta tivo Cannon, in view- of his certain election as speaker of the house, has consistently refused to discuss any proposed legislation, except on the most general terms, but he is known to be opposed to the proposed legist lation for ilnaneial reform, as agreed upon by the senate leaders. In a re cent discussion of the subject with friends here Mr. Cannon grimly re marked that it. would require more thun a conference of three or four senators to determine the charac ter of the financial legislation that shall be considered by the coming congress. It is no secret that Mr. Cannon is opposed to generally accepted plans for providing an elastic, or, as he terms it, a "rubber" currency. He Is not at all satisfied with either tho lrovisions of the Fowler bill or the Aldrich bill, which authorizes the national banks to, issue circulation on other than government bonds, or allows the secretary of the treasury to accept other than government funds in the nationall banks. Mr. Cannon is himself the president of a national bank and is very familiar with banking and financial affairs in the west. He takes the position that the cry for additional financial legis lation comes from speculative in terests in New York and other east ern money centers, and is not due to any. demand for money in the west and soutti. He recently called atten tion to the national bank statements irom western and southern banks to show that they have ample funds on hand to meet all immediate demands and are not worried at all over tho demand for money to move tho crops, or for any other purpose.

The house of representatives by the decisive vote 'o f 17 to 0 has put itself on rocord as Jpposcd to the coming thither of I jiiore Americans.

Tho natives avow edly took the position that" they did not want more people to come here, as, if they did, they would soon oit vote the Hawaiians and the latter would lose control of the legislature.
