The Silver Question.

The following, from VIM. Henry
Hurlbert to The New York Sun, is the
ablest argument we have yet seen on
the silver question, and by publishing it
we hope to make the publication of less
able articles wholly necessary:
| sent you the other day from London
an account of conversation held BY
me touching the silver question. with
MIR. Grenfeli of the Bank of England,
and you have taken such decided
ground in your own columns in support
of silver that it may interest your read
ers to see the enclosed copy of letter
just received by me from Mr. Morton
Frewen, whose paper. in The Nineteenth
Century for October, on the relations be-
tween the existing world-like depression
in business and the war against silver
attracted so much attention on both
sides of the Atlantic.
Mr.. Frewen deals chiefly with the
English and Oriental aspects of the
question. But the same mail which
brings me his letter brings me letters
from Berlin which bear witness to the
accuracy of the following statement
made in The Berliner Borsen -Zeitung.
for Nov. 5, the organ, as you doubtless
know. of Herr Won Bleichroder, the em-
inent German banker and iinancler, to
whom the Prince-C Chancellor referred
the special monetary representative of
President Cleveland for conference and
consultation not very long ago. Speak
ing OF the discussion then pending be-
tween NJ. Primer, the Belgian Plenipo-
Tertiary, and his colleagues of the Latin
Union at Paris. The Borsen -Zeitung
observes: Eve do not think we 90 too
far when we say that the agrarian
movement against the gold standard in
Germany 50 far has been but prologue
in comparison with the mighty tempest
which is now preparing in the bond
holding circles of Germany. And the
recent meeting of the industrial unions
in Cologne has made it certain that the
agricultural interest will not be alone in
the battle against the gold Standard
The Borsen-Zetung anticipates great
disturbances in the international money
market as sure to result from the refus-
al of Belgium to accede to the Latin
Union anew on the terms demanded by
France and Italy, especially if ..Presi-
dent Cleveland succeeds in carrying
through a suspension of the Bland act;''
and it declares that ''the bimetallists
are only awaiting the end of the Prus-
sian Parliamentary elections to begin
their campaign
