81 do not think" said MIR. Howe, "that
the results of ths Conference will effectually
compromise future good results. The only
obstacles to q universal standard were pre-
scented by Great Britain. She was not pre-
pared to accept bimetallisin for herself. and
was still less prepared to see the rest of the
world reject it. Her Government is now en-
gagged with other cases. Her commercial and
financial classes are very much interested IN
this great question. and the success OF 1t has
been ultimately very much quickened as a
result of the Conference. l have many rea-
sons to believe that as SOON as the Govern
ment Of Great Britain has time to take up
the question it will receive very careful and
favorable consideration"
