Scorecard

Each comparison starts from a snewpapers component. "=" means both systems drew the same article. Where they differ, a language model, shown only the text, was asked which is right, twice, with the two claims stated in each order.

Page furniture: the text was a line or two that could be a title, section title or the like, which one system leaves out by design, so it decides nothing.

Over the 96 components of ours AS has text inside, the same text on both sides; words of 3 or more letters, a long s read as f allowed. Components where more of the text is real words: snewpapers 55 · AS 11 · the same 30. AS marked 1 boxes illegible over 1 of our components and read no text from them; snewpapers' text of those components is 100.0% real words.

How this was scored

Every comparison is anchored on a snewpapers component and the American Stories boxes inside it. Where those boxes belong to several AS articles (or several of our components lie inside one AS article), the model was shown the passage as the numbered pieces and asked whether it is one component, several or mixed, twice, with the two beliefs stated, unattributed, in each order. A verdict that changed with the order is unstable and counts for neither side. AS text inside none of our components was asked whether it is advertisements, terms or page furniture, which snewpapers leaves out on purpose. Where AS attaches text outside one of our components (text of an AS article our component otherwise has), the model was shown our component's text and the attached text and asked whether the text belongs to the component, twice, the two beliefs stated in each order: "separate" means snewpapers is right, "belongs" American Stories. Where two AS articles inside one of our components hold the same text (the shorter sharing at least 50% of its 4-word phrases with the longer), the longer is kept and the text counted as duplicated by American Stories; so is attached text another AS article also holds. Where American Stories has a line or two of our component (at most 12 words and 5% of its area) in another AS article while one article holds the rest, the line is no split: the model was shown the rest of the AS text and the line and asked whether the line belongs to the component, both ways; "belongs" means snewpapers is right and judges only the article holding the line wrong (lines in another AS article). One AS article counts as a match only when the two cover each other, both ways: AS text covers at least 90% of our component, and our component at least 90% of that AS article's text. Coverage is measured line by line down each column (how much of its height the other side's boxes span, so a centred headline narrower than its column still counts). Under 90% the first way, the component is partly captured by AS (the rest in no AS box, or marked illegible): not asked, an AS error by the geometry, its AS article judged wrong (AS articles missing part of ours). Under 90% the second way, the AS article runs on beyond our component into other text: that text is asked about as text attached outside, and "separate" judges the AS article wrong (AS articles running on into other items). Decisions are the unit counted above; the last table counts what they judged: an as_split decided "one" is one decision and every AS article inside our component judged wrong, an N ours : 1 AS decided "several" one decision and each of our N components judged right (an article or component judged both ways by different decisions counts in both rows). AS errors count what the decisions for snewpapers found American Stories got wrong, next to those decisions: an N ours : 1 AS is N errors, the N items of ours AS failed to separate (items AS merged), a 1 ours : N AS N errors, the N AS fragment articles. A component inside an N ours : 1 AS (its AS text a slice of the merged article) is counted in the components table by that decision's outcome. A component running over pages is one comparison across them (American Stories never links an article across pages): its AS articles on all its pages, labelled by page, are the pieces asked about, once; it counts once among our components, and a decision for snewpapers judges every one of those AS articles wrong, each a fragment article.

How to read this

Each group is the same crop of the scan twice: snewpapers' boxes on the left, American Stories' on the right. The group's own boxes are outlined in red. Groups are in page position order (column by column), not reading order. A component can appear twice: in its own case and in an N ours : 1 AS group. Text of a component's own AS articles printed outside the component is left out of the comparison and shown beneath the group as "American Stories also attaches: «…» (outside this component)".

1:1 match	the AS text inside our component (boxes, or the slices of boxes it overlaps) all belongs to one AS article (or to several that duplicate one another: American Stories duplicated the text)
1 ours : N AS	the AS text inside our component belongs to several AS articles: one component or several?
N ours : 1 AS	two or more of our components lie inside one AS article (80% or more of each, or 50% or more with a slice of the article): one component or several?
in N ours : 1 AS	all the AS text inside our component is a slice of an AS article that holds other components of ours too: no agreement (the slice is cut along our boundaries, not AS's); decided by that N ours : 1 AS
continued	a later page of a component of ours running over pages: compared, asked and decided once, across its pages, in the group on its first page
ours only	no AS box overlaps our component enough to give it a slice: not captured by American Stories
AS only	AS text inside none of our components (one AS article's): left out on purpose, or missed?
AS only, tiny	AS text inside none of our components, under 20 characters: not asked
AS only, no text	an AS article inside none of our components with no text at all (AS boxed it but read nothing, most often marking it illegible): nothing to ask, counted for neither side
1:1, AS partial	the AS text inside our component all belongs to one AS article, but AS has text for under 90% of our component, measured line by line (the rest is in no AS box, or AS marked it illegible): partly captured by American Stories, not asked; its AS article counts as an AS error
1:1, AS article wider	one AS article holds our component, but runs on beyond it into other text (our component covers under 90% of the article's text, measured line by line): the text it runs into is asked about, and decides it

SENATOR ALDRICH DEFENDS HIS NEW CURRENCY BILL

Measure Provides for Issuance of $500,000,000 in Notes, Guaranteed by State Municipal or Railroad Bonds

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.—The reply of Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island to critics of his banking and currency bill, introduced by him as a measure to provide relief in time of financial stress, by allowing the national banks to issue emergency currency on certain approved securities and guaranteed by government, was made today. It excited widespread interest because the bill is supposed to have the best opportunity of passing of the number of bills offered this session. Many financial critics declare the bill affords no substantial relief. Aldrich reviewed the situation in an able style. He said:

"It was not a currency panic, in the true sense of the word for the United States currency, in character, is beyond question.

"The amount of money in circulation at that time in the hands of the people outside the banks and treasury was $19.36 per capita, much larger than was held by the people of any other country in the world except France, where conditions are entirely different.

"Under ordinary conditions the volume of our currency could be fairly criticised as excessive, certainly adequate to meet normal demands. But there is no provision for emergency which occurs more or less frequently in every country, and which we now see must be provided for.

"It is impossible to estimate the losses inflicted by the suspension of payment by banks in the recent disturbance, it was financial embarrassment on every hand. Thousands were thrown out of employment and wages of employes reduced. Of five expedients adopted to meet the emergency, the use of clearing house certificates was unquestionably the most effective."

"This was the eighth time their employment have been beneficial at times preventing serious disaster, but resulted this time in such a disarrangement of exchanges as to make doubtful whether the disadvantages are not greater than the benefit. The great losses the people of this country suffered through a partial break-down of our credit system should lead congress to seriously consider whether it is possible that legislation will prevent a recurrence.

Central Bank of Issue.

"If the panic should be repeated, the methods of relief used in 1907 would not be available. The treasury will not be in a condition to come to the relief. It is impossible to increase national bank notes on United States bonds. No one can anticipate what the financial conditions may be by autumn and there is urgent need of a revision of the monetary system or some establishment of a central bank of issue."

"I personally think the United States in time will adopt the latter system but in the immediate future it is out of the question. Therefore the entire finance committee agreed to the demand for an issue of emergency notes."

"The minority favored United States notes. The majority felt this will establish a dangerous precedent. The approval of their issue even for temporary purposes would lead ultimately to the demand for a continuance or enlargement whenever a reasonable pretext could be found."

"It is believed, since national bank notes, with their convertability guar-"

The committee felt Germany's precedent the safest to follow. Their Imperial bank is directly under control of the government and has the authority to issue one hundred and nineteen million dollars of notes not covered by specie. A further issue is authorized.

banks are entitled to ninety per cent in notes; on railroads 75 percent. At any time within 48 hours, the entire $500,000,000 can be put into the channels of trade to allay public excitement.

"The bill simply gives banks the right to accomplish by legal methods that which they felt necessary in the recent crisis to accomplish by illegal methods."

Aldrich grew sarcastic in referring to the objection of the effect of the bill on bank earnings. He said he must confess the committee did not try to devise a plan to increase them.

"In the recent panic there was a general suspension in cash payment by banks," he said, "this in violation of every banking law. But bank managers should realize the extraordinary forbearance of the people would not be repeated."

"Our collections for the past three months are too definite to listen with patience to a discussion by officers of banks of large cities whether the remedies proposed by congress result in large additions to their dividends."

TAKES ISSUE WITH ROOSEVELT

FORAKER TELLS OF INSTANCE WHERE ADMINISTRATION IS PLAYING POLITICS

WASHINGTON, Feb.10.—Senator Foraker took the floor of the senate this afternoon on a question of personal privilege to answer to statements in the Roosevelt letter to Fouke with reference to federal appointments in Ohio.

The senator disclaimed any intent of "bandying words" with the president and while recognizing the lack of interest by the general public as to who held public office he was prompted by the attitude of the president, as expressed in his letter to Foulke to produce a case of an office holder in Ohio who had been coerced.

The Ohioan took direct issue with Roosevelt's denial that patronage was being used by the administration in an improper manner.

Foraker said that Editor Charles Bryson of the Athens, Ohio, Gazette had been given the postoffice appointment during recess, "without solicitation," but the nomination was held up because of an interview expressing disapproval of an attempt to shelve Foraker in Ohio.

UNCLE SAM HAS SOME JOBS

CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION ANNOUNCES EXAMINATIONS TO BE HELD SOON

Announcement has been made by the United States civil service commission of an examination to be held in Walla Walla, March 4, for the purpose of securing eligibles from which to fill vacancies as they may occur in the department of agriculture in the capacity of clerk, at $660 per annum. Knowledge of Latin and French, indexing and typewriting is the main requirement.

March 11, 1908, is the date set for examinations to be held in Walla Walla for eligibles for the position of wireman in the departmental service at salaries ranging from $720 to $900 per annum, and on March 11 and 12, examinations will be given to applicants, male and female, who wish to try for the positions of assistant (male) and teacher (male and female) in the Philippine service.

The entrance salary of the majority of male appointees will be $1200 per annum, although some appointments may be made at salaries of $1000 or $1100, based upon the experience and the relative standing in the examination, and they will be eligible for promotion up to $2000 per annum for teacher and from $1600 to $3000 for division superintendent. Eligibility in the assistant examination is required for promotion to division superintendent.

The work of American men teachers is largely of a supervisory character, and the higher positions are filled as vacancies occur by the promotion of those who have demonstrated their efficiency and ability in the service.

The majority of those qualifying in the assistant examination who are willing to accept appointment as teacher are selected. Others will be required in the various clerical and administrative offices in the Islands.

Men only will be admitted to the examination for assistant. Each college student who will be graduated in 1908 should state in his application the degree he expects to receive.

Women will be admitted to the examination for teacher. If a female applicant is the wife, immediate relative, or fiancee of a man examined at the same time for teacher or assistant, or appointed to or already employed in the Philippine service as teacher, she should state definitely in her application the name, address, and relationship of such person. Conditions in the Philippine islands will not permit the making of more than a small proportion of appointments from the female teacher register. It is possible that a few women will be appointed at $900. There is a special need for women to teach the domestic science subjects of instruction which continue for three years throughout the intermediate course, especially for those who have had special preparation in domestic science training schools.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1O-Archbishop Riordan of San Francisco, who has just returned from Rome, thinks Rev. Father Hanna, of Rochester, N. Y. will be named coadjutor bishop of San Francisco diocese. When asked fo~ a definition of Modernism Archbish- OPP explained: Errors or opinions are constantly aflOat which were their re- petition and multiplication to become crystaliZed, then it must be decided whether they are correct. In a word, it is not proper for a priest or a lay man to call Rome's attention to what he considers an error of opinion ex- pressed by priest or bishop. 1t is merely matter of dicipline. Any one of the three candidates, Rev. Hanna. Rev. Maggie, of Boston; or Rev. Law Ter, of ST. Paul, would be most ac- ceptable.'

OTHER CRIMES AT DOOR OF TEETH MEN.

Spokane Crown Pullers Possibly Pulled Two Oregon Jobs

PENDLETON, Or., Feb. 10.—Not only are the holdup artists arrested here by Sheriff Taylor Saturday, believed to be guilty of robbing E. C. Hedger of his money and gold teeth at Spokane, but they are also believed to be a part of the gang that held up the Stevens store at Umatilla on Christmas day, securing $125 from the cash register, and who also held up the store of E. E. Ripper at Echo a few days later, securing $75 in cash. Sheriff Taylor has good evidence that the men arrested committed these two crimes, and it is likely that charges will be made against them by District Attorney Phelps.

They were identified as the Spokane holdups by offering for sale the gold crown pried from C. E. Hedger's teeth in Spokane. The crown has been identified by the Spokane man.

MONEY STOLEN FROM UTAH BANK

Fifty Thousand Dollars Mysteriously Disappears From Salt Lake City Vault.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Feb. 10.—Between $40,000 and $50,000 disappeared from the Utah National bank about January 7, and although the minutest search has been prosecuted every day for a month, not a single clew has been found that will lift the mystery and point to the guilty person who stole the money.

The Pinkerton detective agency has exhausted every effort, the bank has spent time and money in hunts, no stone has been unturned, and yet nothing has appeared to show where the money went or who took it.

The theft of the money has been kept in ironclad secrecy by the bank officials. The money was stolen from the reserve money chest. It was nearly all in gold.

"The circumstances surrounding the disappearance of the money," said President W. McCormick tonight, "make it impossible as well as unfair to the bank employees, to place suspicion on any one or two men. The combination to the chest had been in the hands of two men. A third man who was given the figures during the absence of one of these men had them in a sealed envelope, but had occasion to break the seal and open the chest during the summer. Then he placed the unsealed envelope in his own money chest, to which others had access."

F. Augustus Heinze was "eliminated" from the board of directors of the Utah National at the last annual meeting.
