OUR BRIDGE OF SIGNS.

Mr.. LOWRY, with his wonted re-
sponsiVeness to popular demands,
agrees that Selby avenue ought to be
tunneled. and will cooperate with the
city and the citizens to that end. If this
were done, more than one carriage could
be carried on each train, and trains
could run more frequently, and the un-
pleasant oYercroWding and waiting
which now affilct people who live on
the hill be avoided. The dangerous
crossing at Summit avenue could be
gotten rid of, and passengers coming
down the hill would be spared the in
tense agitation which is at present
stamped on the features of the Dravest
Of them between Third street and the
crest. A slightly archWay, handsomely
rallied and lighted at night, would add
much to the beauty of street which is
already famous for its views and adorn-
ments.
The opinion has been expressed In
some quarters that such an improve
ment, while desirable enough on other
accounts. would really not result in the
saving of human lives and limbs. Peo-
pie who think this way say that to
bridge Summit avenue, with moving
cable trains passing to and fro beneath,
will be simply to build a Bridge Of
Signs at point in our city where it will
be readily accessible to every love-lorn
swain and damsel whom our borders
contain. They predict that the number
of suicides at the spot from among the
disappointed of this class will be ap-
palling. This is worthy of cOnsidera-
ton, because we can not afford to lose
many such young men or women. The
ranks Of our best citizens are constantly
recruited from among them. No young
women are so jealous for mental i'm
provement, fancy work and good deeds
i'll general as those who are trying to
aSsuage the pangs of an unrequited af-
lection; and the young man who accom-
plishes the highest results for himself
and society is usually he who is stimu-
lated in his efforts by an ambition to
show the maid who had Tilted him how
much she has lost. 1t would be a seri-
Gus check on the progress of civilization
if the tunnelng of Selby avenue should
be followed by any increased mortality
in this quarter.
But the GLOBE really does not think
that this is likely to be the case. For
ONE thing, as times get better, the ardor
OF men and the reluctance OF women
will lose some of their present unprec-
edented intensity. Men, having more

AGAINST FREE COINAGE.
Report Of the Majority Of the House Coinage
Committee.

Report Of the Majority Of the House Coinage
Committee.
The adverse report on the Vest free coinage
bill, authorized by the majority Of the House
coinage committee, was submitted to the House
by Mr.. Wickham Saturday. The report cites
the fact that they devoted much time and heard
arguments by many persons in their search for
information on the silver question.
Under the present act" the report states,
s54, OO0. 900 annually is being added to the vol
ume Of the currency of the country in the form
Of treasury notes for bullion purchases This
largely exceeds the contraction by way Of the
retirement Of national bank notes. and in a
period Of ten years would, at the same rate,
gradually add to the volume of the currency
above the amount Of the bank notes. should
they all be retired. $3.50 900 0OO The Secretary
OF the Treasury states that the amount of sur
plus silver in the world above the amount
used in the arts and coinage in all other coun-
tries than the United States was for 1888 3d.
500 900 ounces. II this estimate is correct un-
der the present law there is provision for using
the worlds surplus, which is all that unlimited
coinage could accomplish. The American pro-
duct In 1883 was 5000 900 ounces, and in 1889
50, 600, 900 ounces"
THE SURPLUS SILVER
Speaking Of the surplus silver the report says:
remain threat to the market or whether they
are used by designing persons q temporary
means to depress the price is a matter upon
which intelligent persons who have appeared
before the committee differ. This can be de-
termined by a continuance OF the present policy
of buying no more than the 45O0, 600 ounces
monthly provided for by the existing law.
IF the presence of the Is, 900. 900 ounces il
continued only for the purpose OF effecting
some change in the legislation, and Congress
shall show by its action that it intends no
change. this body Of silver will be permitted to
go its way, and SO will no longer depress the
market. II, on the other hand, this amount Of
bullion Is in actual excess over the demand 1t
will be easy at any future time for Congress to
provide for its absorption into the volume
Of the currency. To determine this time is
needed"
The present law at the time of its passage,
the report says. was declared by many ardent
supporters Of free coinage to be satisfactory.
The conditions are substantially the same as
then. There has been no important change in
our monetary situation. II the present law
when passed, promised to all intents and pur-
poses tie use OF the American product and au-
thorized the issue of money good for all pur-
poses as coined silver, 1t Is not now evident to
the committee wherein il has failed in that
promise, nor wherein il Is likely in the future
70 TAIL TO accomplish that desirable end"
