expected to lead to formal conference preliminary
to the carrying out of the views of this
and the German Government respecting bi-motalhc
coinage Before Mr. Evarts left for Windsor, he
said that he officially advised of the departure
OF Baron Schloezer for the United States. The con-
ference Of the Monetary Commission last year was
regarded simply as a reconnaissance, but its effect
uOon thinkers of Europe has evidently been favOra-
BILE toward bi-metallism there. The withdrawal of
Germany from the Latin Union broke up
the effectiveness of the international relations be-
tween the countries composing It, on tins question
and the announcement of the willingness of Ger
many to cooperate with this country in the
b-metallic movement promises an arrangement
which other nations will be compelled to accept.
Congress has placed $4,000 at the disposal of Mr..
Evarts to conduct negotiations. The Secretary is
prepared to move in the premises as soon as def
mite understanding with Germany is reached.
