Fifteen Director.
CHICAGO. Nov. 12.-Nclson W. Aldrieh
chairman of the National Monetary com
mission, defended ls plan for a nations!
ieurrencvy reform last night and answered
numerous criticisms of the plan offered,
t today session of the Western Deo
iiomlo society.
Chief among tho criticisms of the plan
suggested by the bankers and political
economist hnd been: -.
Ilanger of unrestrained ' Inflation of
currency; da user f control of the Na
tional Reserve association fussing to the
hands of hank?, and need of specified
sjuld reserve.
The objections of H. ft Hulbert, a Chl
rugo bauber. und former Governor Jo
teph W. Folk of Missouri, received the
i chief attention of the chairman of tho
commission.
Into the hands or the bankers of . the
country Mr. Aldrieh placed most of the
: responsibility of peeing that no undue In
flation might result from tho rsago of
the bill.
Depends on Honest tlamiiFml,
I "In the list onulysis," he said, "tlie
character of the National Reserve afr.n
ciutlun i:j the purest limitation on the
icvpuncion. You ctm't ' make letftelatlon
" wldch will give inunugers of hiKtituttns
honevty and fidelity. Every bank In the
. United State depends upon tho honesty
I nd wibdom of its managers. Have you
. o little confidence In . your associates
tiM-to think they sro going to permit
' tho country to be ruined by Inflation?
"The purpose of the plan is to permit
Minn expansion. You can't cure a condi
tion. -like that of 1907 without expansion
and extension of note iBsues. The limi
tation put on redlscotmtlng by the plan,
however, will serve to prevent too much
expansion." '
Aiikwerlnn' tho claim that the' govern
ment should havo greater control f the
association.' former Senator Aldrieh laid: 4
"The baiiken are tl sola Ytockholdera.

FREMONT, Neb., Nov. lI.-(fipoclal
Telegram.) Robert Tlerney, a tramp,
serving a term In. the city Jit.lt for va
grancy, yesterday evening told Assistant
County Attorney Ouren of Council Uluffs
thnt llurellp Ham Wlldey, who Is now In
Jull at Fulrfas, 3.' P.. had confessed that
ho murdered Hoi-ace Fullers, tho bridge
tender, last July., According to Tlerney's
story he and Wlldey, wnt were acquaint
ances, were scrvlnir a term In Jull at
Fairfax last ' Heptomber. Something;
seemeil to be woiTjing Wlldey and one
afternoon he told Tlerney the story of
tho murder. He said that he and a Pal
undertook to crow and that Palters would
not let them, so he hit him over the head
with aii Iron bar and after first taking
what money h had, umountlntr to $28.65,
threw the body into the river. They then
went buck to Omaha and caught a train
for Plti tt (.mouth, Tlerney will bo held
here until wanted by the Council Fluffs
officials should ' a complulnt be 1 fl-d
against Wlldey. -
Officials Investigate.
Assistant County Attorney Ouren of
Council Bluffs return! last evening from
Fremont very much linprrsaed with th
probability of there being something in
tho story told by Tlemoy. When Tlerney
came down here Immediately after his
I (iliume from JnJI at Faltfux ho stopped
at several mUooiih In Council Bluffs be
fore he called upon 1 County Attorney
CapoU of Pottawattamie county and was
In a very woozy condition when ques
tioned. The official ndvlfed Mm to walk
around u fVw blocks nnd return. That
was tho last seen of him until he was
found In tlwi Fremont county Jail.
Moth Mr. Ouren and Mr, Cupull feel
that the alleged confeeulon should be
more carefully examined und Mr. Ouren
will go to Fairfax to eeo Wlldey.
That portion of Tlerney'u tain that con
nects two tnen with the alleged murder
en the biidgo'la regarded as significant,
for it Is certain that if 1'nllern was mur
dered and thrown over tho bridge railing
the work wuh done 'quickly by more than
ono man.
Tho two great elements of liniH-oliubllity
are contained lit tho Htutemeiit thut the
murdered man was rubbed of .'S.5o and
his revolver. Tim cash rcgHiter showed
that Fullers hud collected but S8.13, which
ho hud not put In the drawer, und It was
assorted that ho never carried any
amount of money of hi own. It I ajso
well established that he had no revolver.
