Cold VIII Now EIow Bacl, to AnericH--r..i
silver Crisis.


LoxDoN. Sept 23.-The representative of
the Associated Press has had interviews with
the Rothschilds. Speyhers Lazard Brothers
and other bankers. and they all agreed In
their statements that further large shll ments
of gold arc going 10 America. The hoths-
childs dispatched an additional 1000 to-
day
The chief clerk Of the house said that it was
uncertain whether France would make the
bulk of her gold exports or whether the bur
den would fall Oh England. Bat considering
the fact that France has a worse harvest tnan
England IL would seem that she should send
the bulk Of the gold. The Bank Of France
may. however as-on former occasions, OBJ
struct the exports by raising the premium on
full weight coin.
In an interview with Mr.. Robert Gi1en,
head of the commercial department and con-
trOler Of the coin returns of the British Board
of Trade. lie was asked what truth there was
in the circulation that England and the contl-
nent would be forced to part with gold
amounting TO cGO,0OO,0O0 10 pay for the i'm,
ports of American grain. Mr.. Gihen ridiculed
the estimate lie said that before tl0,OO0,OO0
in bullion was sent TO America the Bank OF
England and the Bank OF France would both
raise their rates of discount and check the
drain.
According to Mr. Gifen. not bullion, but
securities and exports would go 10 America
to pay for grain. Undoubtedly, he said.
there would be heavy drain OF gold Tor
several months 10 come. but the payments
for grain we're not the sole cause OF such
drain.
An important factor in the financial situa-
ton was the silver question. Stable American
houses. he declared. were making preparatio ms
70 face the silver crises. which IL now In
eyitable. by maknge gold purchasesin Europe
When asked if such crisis was inevitable
Mr. Gifen SAID.
"In my opinion it is impossible 70 avert 1t:
The United States has become overloaded
with paper currency. The issue OF silver cer-
tifcates to the amount Of twelve million
hounds sterling annually was a gross legisla-
tive mistake and is bound 10 bring crash
speedily"

Gifen said
February will probably realize the worst
OF the position / do not see how grave
trouble can be ayerted by remedial lesisla-

if the two parties in Congress could agree
