Hon. William ID. Kelley on the Currency
Question.
The usual scbooi-boy custom OF reading written
speeches on saturday in Congress in drawing
tone for home consumption was varied to-day
by sterling. swapping. robust declaration or
principles on the financial question by the Hon.
William d. Kelley. OF Pennsylvania. He advo-
Gated the adoption Of his plan Of issu-
ing three-sxty-fve convertible bond, which
he claims will relieve the present widespread
difficulties Of the currency. During his speech he
called attention to several letters he had received
from various parts OF the country from leading fnan-
ciers, Boards of Trade and Finance, and from
manufacturers approving of his plan, and he quoted
from former Speech delivered In 1866, which
sounded like prophecy from the TACT that
he cautioned Congress and the Treasury against
the late deplOrabe panic. Mr.. Keliey's views are
gaining strength with many leading members
IN the House, and more than one Senator has said
that he did not know but he would vote for Keey's
bill when 1t came up in the Senate He will bring
IT up for fnal vote by the Committee OF Ways
and Means on Tuesday next when he is confident
1t Will be favOrably reported to the House and
passed. The Views OF Mr. Kelley, as published
In the HERALD and in pamphlet iOrm have been
placed by MIR. Kelley on the desk Of every Senator
ana member OF Congress-.
