Business Of all kinds has long been great
" depressed in Great Britain. Failing vi
trading houses, suspensions OF banks, clos
ing of mills and manufactures have been
common. The crisis il not over. The
names of some financial institutions hither-
to rated very highly have been made free
within the banking and money cir les Il
London. Even the most conservative news
papers admit that it il idle to deny or ig-
more the fact that an uneasy feeling Exists
in the city"
The uneasy feeling haa found its way in
to Parliament In the House OF Lords lat
evening Lord Huntley suggested that an in
uuiry be made into the depression If sgri-
culture and commerce" 10 oppo.iog the
inquiry at the present time the Earl Bea-
con-field admitted that the Oppression WAS
Unprecedented. The estimated that the
public -eslth had decreased eS0,O00,O 600
500 O00, 00O) and the a'ea Of land under
cultivation had dimini-hed 600 600 acres.
The PINE Minister was of The opinion
that Engl,sh Industry and commerce kept
we'll I'D with The industry and couimerc- Of
other nations. The depression was general.
All vendors of commodities were suffering
from low prices, aud Lord Beacont Id had
the courage to admit III At the .use of low
prices was partly caused "by the deprecis-
ton of silver" This admission ia a very
significant one coming from the Prime Min
liter Of the country that has been the great
obstacle in the way of bi-metsIlism. To
the form of the sdmi sion, of coUrse, ex,
ception must be taken. IL Is rather the APP
probation of gold than the depreciation ol
silver to which the decline in prices mus
be attributed. But the admission dos moi
lose sny of its force because OF the faulti'
ness If its form. Tie noble Earl declared
that the general inquiry would he barren
of results, but that ian inquiry as to the
change in value of the precious metals and
its effect on English industry might here
after be desirable"
This is only valuable as an index. Ii
shows that the silver question ia forging itt
way to the front in England. On its solu'
ton depends the return Of Ensland's com
mercial prosperity, The Liverpool
Chamber Of Commerce is on record In sup
port of this proposition. The Earl Of Bet
consfield il careful not TO commit himself
but the undue current # his thoughts arr
no doubt tending in the direction Of remon
etiz ,tions The silver men of Eng and
should organize and make vigorous cam
paign against the bankers and doctrinarie'
that have brought their country TO the pre-
-ent depressed staie.
Meantime the price of silver has advanc
ed slightyly Germany sold the other day
about $500 600 worth at better rates thai
has ruled in some. If there was reasona
bic probability of universal remonitizs
ton of the white metal it, price would sd
vance at a rapid rate. EDglsnd has it IL
her hands to spply the remedy for CONNER
cial depression that her own leading mind
Low see to be the only .fficscious one.
