why the Present silver Law sheuia Have
. Fair Trial.

To THE EDITOR OF THE sUN-Sgr: In juxta-
position to the many superficial utterances OF
individuals and associations on the silver
question. the commercial world should appre-
cate the calm exposition OF this country's at
tltudo as expressed In Secretary Fosters letter
to the Bankers Association at New Orleans.
It undoubtedly means that the Administration
desires that the new silver act OF July. 1890.
should have a fair trial. and further legislation
be delayed until the effects OF the speculation
OF 1890. which had spread all over the world.
have had time to wear of. Mr.. Fosters con-
illusions. based. MS he says. on those ofexperts.
that the results OF the law will gradually tend
In the direction desired. are likely to prove
correct. and 1t is to be hoped that further agi-
tation may be postponed. so as to allow COM
merce breathing spell in which to regulate
its disorganlzod conditions.
The absorption OF silver appears to keep UP
not only with the estimated larger production.
but seems also to be strong enough to take In
the heavy speculative accumulatlons Of last
year. and whether the supplies get used up at
95 or 125 It 10 o relief to find that ere long
supply and demand alone will have to affect
the position. and give existing laws chance
to prove themselves
The monetary situation in connection with
silver Is OF too grave nature to permit fur
Their meddling, and Mr.. Foster may well say
that the cooperation Of the principal European
Governments is. needed before more is done
would doubtless have come from Europe long
ago had we not, since 1873 tried to take the
chestnuts out Of the fire.
The monetary situation may DO summed up
In these statistics. The metal money OF the

DEFENDANT MARTIN.
THE Ex-CASHIER TELLS OF HIS
TRAVELS AND TROUBLES.
He First Heard Of Discrepancy in His
Accounts in Baltimore-He Denies the
Thsft-Case Continued Until Today.

The trial of the case. against George
M. Martin, charged with having embez-
zled the sum of $4,000 from the Southern
California railway company on septem-
ber 18th last, was resumed at 10 O'Clock
yesterday morning before Judge Lucien
Shaw and jury.
Four more character" witnesses were
called by the defense, all of whom testi-
fed that prior to his arrest, Martins
reputation for honesty and integrity had
been good.
G. M. Holton, Esq, who is assisting
in the prosecution, was then called and
questioned as to the persons who insti-
tuted the prosecution. He stated that
as far as he knew the Southern Galifor-
mia railway company was responsible,
but that he believed that the American
Surety company had also some interest
in the matter.
The defendant, Geo. M. Martin, then
took the stand on his own behalf. Be-
ing afflicted with deafness, his counsel
had considerable difficulty in making
himself understood, but finally an ear
trumpet was procured and this obstacle
was overcome.
In the meantime the witness, j. T.
Dunn, was needed, but not being forth
coming, an attachment was issued for
him. AS he voluntarily appeared at
the afternoon session, however, that
was discharged by the court.
Martins testimony consisted of his
tory of his movements after leaving this
city, all of which have been previously
recounted. He then stated that the
first intimation he received of discrep-
ancy in his accounts was on the receipt
of Chambers reply to his letter from
Baltimore. He subsequently received
visit at his mothers residence from q
policeman, whom he accompanied to
the station. After being locked up all
night he agreed to accompany
the attorney for the Security
company to Los Angeles, and they
started together. At Chicago, however,
the attorney took him to hotel, where
he remained for three days; but he was
not under surveillance as far as he
knew at that time. He then accom-
panied a Mr.. Ray to this city. They
put up at the Hollenbeck and remained
there ten days, his board being paid by
Ray. He reported at the local office
every day while the matter was being
investigated, and was finally arrested.
He remained in Jail one night, securing
his release on bail next morning. The
defendant was then examined as to his
books, and he explained that for six
weeks prior to his departure, the Office
did very large business, and he was
unable to keep up his books. Conse-
quently he left blanks for items to be
filed in later, and did fill them in after
wards. Every item that occurred in
his department. had been credited in his
cash book, which was mathematically
correct. He denied emphatically that
he had taken the missing $4,000, and
told identically the same story as that
related by Chambers.
At this juncture court adjourned un-
til 10 O'Clock this morning. The case
will probably go to the jury this morning.
