SENATE.
The Senate met at 10 O'Clock this morning.
and after the passage OF some Public Build.
ing bills proceeded wfGRthe consideration
of the Financial bill. ~. Sherman spoke
in opposition TO the Free Coinage amend
ment. Messrs. Allison, Aldrlch. and Evaris
followed In speeches also against the Free
Coinage amendment, and Mr.. Mcconnell
i'm it's support. The Senate at q L. NJ. ad-
journed to 10 O'Clock tomorrow. with an
agreement that general debate on the Finan-
cial bill shall close tomorrow evening afer
several Senators who desire to speak have
been heard.
Senator Sherman spoke nearly four hours
and made the speech Of the day in the Sen
ate. He was very earnest in his denuncia-
tion and opposition TO Mr.. Stewards free
coinage amendment to the bill. Ii was. he
said, very radical proposition and changed
the whole character of the bill. Ii was
simply proposition that the United States
should pay $l.29 for every ounce
OF silver bullion tha might be offered from
any part OF the world; while TO day in the
markets Of the world silver was worth only
about Sl.05 an ounce. This proposition, II
made into law, would tend TO change the
standard of value ofall propertyin the United
States. and in time would demOnetize gold.
II he believed the free coinage OF silver
would enable us to maintain the value Of
silver bullion up TO that Of gold, he would
vote for free coinage. But II II were ad
mitted that silver could not reach gold, eX-
cept by the Government paying bounty TO
the producer Of domestic silver, he did not
think there was any danger Of this meas
ure becoming law. Silver might
reach parity with gold, but
would remain there only so long as
the Government paid that price. Market
value was the judgment Of the world OF ma
tion. and the wants of the people regulated
price. not the laws of man. Mr.. Sherman
argued that the free coinage Of silver, the
cheaper metal in this case, meant the
driving out of gold; the cheaper metal
would take the whole volume Of circulation.
and the dearer metal, gold, would either be
boarded or exported.
