"The bonds will bear interest from

"The exact amount of bonds to be
issued will depend on the amount of
subscriptions received. It is to be ex

that event the right is reserved to allot
bonds in excess of $3,000,000,000 to the
extent of not over one-half of the jum
bv which the subscriotions received
exceed $3,000,000,000. In other words,

Three Billion Liberty Loan
Will Be Floated October 1
(By Associated Press.)
Washington, Sept. 27. Secretary McAdoo tonight announced the de
tails of the second Liberty loan which will be offered to the public Oc
tober 1. The chief features are:
Amount $3,000,000,000 or more, the excess not to exceed one half of
the amount of over-subscription.
Term of bonds Maturity twenty-five years; redeemable at the option
of the secretary of the treasury in ten years.
Denominations of bonds $50 and multiples of $50.

15.
Terms of payment Two per cent upon application, 18 per cent No
vember 15, 40 per cent December 14 and 40 per cent January 15, 1918.
The privilege of converting bonds of this issue into bonds of any suc
ceeding issue bearing a higher interest rate than 4 per cent during the pe
riod of the war is extended and through an arrangement under which
bonds will be printed with only four coupons instead of fifty (to be ex
changed at the end of two years for the bonds containing the full number
of coupons) deliveries will be prompt.
In this manner the issue of interim certificates will be avoided.
redemption before maturity, as the
bonds converted; and such bonds
shall be issued from time to time, if
and when, and to the extent that the
privilege of conversion so conferred
shall arise and shall be exercised.
"If the privilege of conversion shah
once arise, and shall not be exercised,
with respect to any bonds of the pres
ent series within the period above pre
scribed then such privileges shal
terminate as to such bonds and shall
not arise again though thereafter
bonds be issued bearing interest at a
igher interest rate or less than 4 per
cent per annum.
"Subscription tor tne Donas must

December 14, 1917; 40 per cent, Janu
ary 15, 1918. On the latter date ac
crued interest on the deferred install
ments also will be payable.
Will Expedite Issue.
"I am -ery glad to be able to an
nounce that by authorizing the en
graving of these bonds with only four
coupons attached instead of a full
number of fifty, it will be possible to
have the actual bonds ready for deliv
ery as soon as full payments are com
pleted, thus avoiding the trouble and
delay incident to the issuance of in
terim receipts or temporary bonds.
"On and after November 15. 1919,
the holders of the bonds will have
opportunity to exchange them for
new bonds having attached thereto
coupons for the balance of the period
for which the bonds will run.
"It is also expected that on or about
October 10, 1917, there will be in the
hands of tha federal reserve banks a
supply of these new bonds ready for
immediate delivery to subscribers , in
amounts not in excess of $1,000 to any
one subscriber against payment in
full, thereby avoiding in such cases
the trouble incident to waiting until
after all allotment for delivery.
"Plans also are being perfected
whereby the banks all over the coun
try can obtain bonds for the making
of prompt delivery against these small
subscriptions. As the bonds will bear
interest from November 15 and as
those who pay in full prior to that
time will not obtain any interest on
their money until that date this is
ottered as an alternative proposition
to those who are anxious to obtain
immediate possession of the bonds
for which they subscribe. The reason
this offer will be limited to amounts
of not over $1,000 to any one sub
scriber is that all subscriptions in ex
cess of this amount will be subject to
allotment.
"The campaign for the sale of these
bonds will be opened Monday, Oc
tober 1. and close Saturday. October
cl. l confidently hope that when the
campaign is over it will be found
that the total number of subscrib
ers is at least 10,000,000 and that the
total subscriptions are in excess of
$5,000,000,000. Such a response would
be notice to our enemies that the
American people as a whole intend to
support with all their power their
government in the vigorous prosecu
tion of this war and the achievement
of an early and lasting peace."
Cambon Says Kaiser
Ridiculed Pope's
"Peace" as Childish
Paris, Sept. 28. Judge Cambon,
general secretary of the ministry of
foreign affairs, in his weekly talk with
The Associated Press today spoke first
of the replies of the central powers to
the pope's peace proposal, which he
said he found "remarkable as care
fully avoiding any practical question,
while dealing at length on arbitration,
disarmament, liberty of the seas and
philosophical questions, which the
Germans always have treated as
chimerical."
"I can recall conversations with the
kaiser," M. Cambon continued, "in
which he ridiculed such Questions as
childish nonsense and unworthy the
attention of responsible statesmen.
There is no policy existing for the
Germans which is not realistic, with
conquest and domination as its aim.
"If Germany has thus changed it
is because that country feels the ex
pression of such evidence which
binds to nothing, whereas precise
declarations would engage it in things
which it carefully avoids.
"As regards the verbal propositions
about Belgium, the conditions are' not
acceptable to all Belgians, as they in
volve the negation of any true inde
pendence. A distinction between the
Walloons and Flemish would be the
end of Belgium."
Questions Right to Stage
Any Surprise Attack
They could see the money on the
card table through a back window,
but by the time the officers entered
Joe Viscontie's pool hall at Sixth and
Pierce, where the games have been
in progress, the money and the evi
dence were nowhere to be seen. A
new man on the force, however,
launched a surprise attack Wednesday
afternoon in broad daylight and se
cured the deck of cards and $2.50 in
change that was on the table.
Senator J. F. Morianty, attorney for
Viscontie, questioned the officer's
right to indulge m these unfair tac
tics when the case came up in police
court. What right have you, offi
cer, to walk into that place and take
tnat money and iock tne aoorr ne
demanded. Four men were caught,
but three escaped through a side door
which the officer neglected to Iock
when he went to call the patrol.

war excess profits and $842,200,000 on
incomes were substantially unchanged.
the conference increases being divided
among many items, with a few new
taxes added and many eliminated
house provisions restored. The system
of levvinir war excess profits taxes,
however, was practically rewritten in
a compromise between the senate war
profits and house excess prohts sys
tems. A minimum exemption of 7
per cent on invested corporate capi
tal is to be provided with modified al
lowances for intangible assets.
Larger Credit to France-
Washington. Sept. 28. A further

urged President Wilson to have
congress pass the pending bill to

Columbia Prof.
Demands Senate
Oust La Follette
Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 28. Mem
bers of the American Bankers' asso
ciation launched into expressions of
approval when Nicholas Murray But
ler, professor of Columbia university,
addressing the meeting today on the
changing world, demanded that
congress exercise its constitutional
right to expel United States Senator
La Follette.
'We are renelline attacks UDon
American people and institutions of
two kinds," Dr. Butler said. "We are
fighting across the sea. and we are
fighting evil-minded suspicion, cow
ardice and treason which have raised
their heads at home. Our soldiers can
fight the soldiers of the enemy. You
and I have got to fight sedition and
treason here."
"Have the American people lost
their capacity for corporate indigna
tion?" he asked. '
"There is a provision in the consti
tution providing that congress may
expel a member by two-thirds vote.
What are they thinking of to sit there
and permit themselves to be contam
inated by Senator La Follette?"
Cries of approval came from every
where as Dr. Butler proceeded.
"Gentlemen, you might just as well
put poison into the food of every boy
that goes to his transport as to permit
this man to make war upon the nation
in the halls of congress.
Irish Self-Government May
Result From Convention
Dublin, Sept. 28. The Sinn Fein
party in Ireland is extending its ac
tivities and is forming local clubs
everywhere throughout the country.
It still remains, however, a pervading
sentiment rather than a definite or
ganization.
It is impossible to say which par
ticular individuals are the authorized
exponents of its purposes and there
is a good deal of divergence both of
tone and substance between the vari
ous pronouncements made from its
platforms. Some speakers continue
to preach revolution by armed force,
while others appear to aim at a pro
gram much nearer the limits of prac
tical politics.
There is a continuously hopeful
feeling that the Irish convention may
turn out a good workable scheme of
self-government and the conviction is
growing that if it does so the irrecon
ciliables will be left without followers.
