THE SILVER HEARINGS.
savants % Testify as 20 Free Coinage-An
Adjournment Untn Tuesday.
fpV taic0raoh n tha p,...,.A

nsl
WASHINGTON, January S0.--Tho silver
hearings were continued by the House
Coinage Committee to-day. Director
Leach, Of the Mint, was questioned by
members of the committee. The effect Of
tho passage of free-coinage bill. be
thought. would be that foreign nations
having stocks Of silver on hand would shin
il here. But before these shipments could
arrive the alarm would be so great that
gold would be withdrawn from the Urea
sury and boarded by the banks, 80 that the
Government would have no gold with
which to pay for silver. The effect of free
coinage would be q contraction Of the cur
rency, but how long this would last he
could not tell.
Mr.. Edward Atkinson was then given a
hearing. He said that credit depended
not upon the quantity Of money but the
quality of IL. In the business of the world
credit was factor TO an extent twenty or
thirty times as great as that of actual
money. He declared that free silver coin
age would stop credit which would stop
business. As business had already been re-
stricted very largely by the fear of such
legislation.
MIR. Atkinson gave the following as his
view of the recent financial furry The
pinch was not due TO an actual scarcity of
money, but 10 the scarcity of money IN the
right place; 20 a reduction of the bank
reserves that obliged the banks TO restrict
credit. Now, with no more actual money
IN circulation than six weeks ago. there is
an abundance of money and an abundance
Of credit. He declared 20 his certain
knowledge that since the present free
silver bill was passed by the Senate large
transactions amounting TO hundreds OF
thousands of dollars had been summarily
suspended after being we'll under way.
As soon as Mr.. Atkinson finished Mr..
Bland, saying that these statements were
the same that he had heard for years,
moved TO fix day for a final vote, which
motion Mr. Naux moved toamend by fixing
Tuesday as the next meeting-day of the
committee.
Mr.. Walker. Of Massachusetts,, immedi-
ately objected and said his business would
not permit him to be present so often. He
declared warmly that the committee had
never had any hearings on the question of
free coinage, and the free-silyer men I'M
mediately locked horns with him on this
statement.
Mr.. Walker kept the floor for five min
utes or more, and when an attempt was
made TO vote on Mr.. NauXs motion, he
made the point Of order that II o'clock
had arrived. TO which Mr.. Williams, OF
Illinois, retorted with the remark that Mr..
Walker had used up all the time necessary
for vote Chairman Wickham overruled
Mr.. Walkers point of order, but the pro-
priety of the ruling was questioned, and
finally, by unanimous consent, an adjourn
ment was taken until Tuesday.

bert from the wit and sarcasm of American pencils would be re- freshins. A state department official recalls the fact that this same ques- tion arose years ago, in Jackson's time, and was settled by Old Hickory in characteristic fashion. The czar of Russia was being Iampooned unmer- citully in the American press, and the St. Petersburg government, ac- customed to ordering editors about at it's own sweet will, asked the pres ident to interfere and suppress the offending publications. Jackson's reply was that with all his power as president Of the United States, he had no control over tbe newspapers, and that for every assault upon the czar in American newspapers he could show thousand upon himself.

Take the vast London society. It is stiff neck dress parade in which one meets one's best friend once a fortnight and strangers in proposition. People never know each other well, and are almost suspicious of those they do know. Invitations are sent out from one to two months ahead, and people come and go without making visible impression, and there is none of that merry familiarity which makes American life so enjoyable. A dinner is 8 set affair, with no gen eral conversation and 8 total absence of what the French call esprit; in fact most of the Englishman's pleas ures are of the mackintosh and um- brella kind. The Londoner is always guarded and suspicious of the stran- ger, and I don't wonder, consider ing some of the Americans he has had showed upon him. But, after all all, there are too many people in London; it is impossible to expect freedom, familiarity and hospitality among such a multitude. Chicago News.
