ton whether Germany intended to modify the
law fixing upon the gold standard had been
treated as an open one. Bismarck replied that
ne did not know the views of the federal gov
ernment, but he himself did not think it expe-
dent, unnecessarily, to commit himself to an
expression OF opinion on question Of such
moment. He thought the Interpolation had
not been we'll considered, but treating the mat
ter from a business point of view,
ne could assure the House that neither
the federal council nor the Prussian ministry

the gold standard law. The suspension of
silver sales was measure of expediency adopt

legislation was wholly unwarranted. He had

standard as in France" must have been better
informed than the Imperial governments.
