THE SILVER QUESTION,
'nator Jones Says that Decentralization
Has Caused Decline in Prices.

Senator Jones Says that Decentralization
Has Caused Decline in Prices.
WASHINGTON, May l2.-After routine
business in the Senate to-day, the Silver
bill was taken up, and Mr.. Jones ad.
dressed the Senate in its support. He
had a very attentive audience, many
Senators on the Democratic side OF the
chamber taking seats nearby and pay.
ing close attention to his remarks.
He spoke Of the general unrest pre-.
vailing throughout the country. The
prices OF all commodities, he said, had
fallen and continue 10 fall. What was
it, he asked, that produced q general de.
cline Of prices in my country? It was
shrinkage in the volume Of money
relatively to the population and bust.
ness. The world had never had a pro.
per system OF money. Prosperity and
speculation had been stimulated attimes
by great yields from mines, and when
those mines we're worked out then came
levulsion and adversely. -
He went on to speak OF the natural
ratio between gold and silver existing
for $500 or 5000 years, ratio OF Is! to
!, and said that it was only since the
legislative prescription of silver in Ger
many and the United States, and it's ban.
ishmcnt from the mints of Europe that
any material change in that ratio took
place; and that the present divergence
in the relative value Of tho two metals
was directly due to the legal outlawry Of
silver and not to any natural causes. It
had always been the object Of the cred
itor class to enhance the value of money
by reducing tho volume, so that when
the gold mines Of California and Aus.
tralia were producing the largest yield,
it was proposed to demonetize gold.
The motive OF decentralization in the
case Of silver, as well as gold, was, Mr..
Jones said, TO aegrandize thej creditor
class Of the world and to confiscate as far
as practicable the rewards Of tho hardy
toilers. ...t sEft
Atthe suggestion OF Mr.. Teller, Mr..
Jones postponed finishing his speech

Dayion-Ou,er Ball Contests.
Saturdays game with Dayton was a
tough one for Wheeling to lose, but yes.
terday's contest was tougher. Wheel.
ing led from the first inning to the
ninth but in that fateful period the Ohio
visitors slugged the ball viciously and
succeeded in bringing the winning run
across the plate. II the defeat can be
charged to any one player White is the
responsible party, his two muffs in left
field letting in four OF the runs scored
by Dayton. There is some excuse for
White as he. is suffering with split
hand.
Notwithstanding defeat was her por.
ton Wheeling played a magnificent
game, fielding very sharply. O'Brien
put up beautiful game at short and
Glenalvin did fine work at second,

home sluggers. The teams are yery
evenly matched, and the games at Day.

interest. M
The home team left last nightfor Day.
ton where they will play their first game
away from home today. They have
played remarkably good ball at home,
and are by far the best set Of players
Wheeling has ever had. The record at
home OF six games won and three lost is
good enough. II they win half the
games on their trip they will have done
well. The best wishes Of their friends
90 with them. The work OF Mr.. Peoples
rs umpire is worth more than passing
notice. It is safe to say that such ac-
ceptable umpiring is seldom eeen on any
grounds. Mr.. Peoples leaves the city
