SILVER FOR MONEY.
THE CONFERENCE AT BRUSSELS IN
FULL BLAST. $780,.

senators Allison and Jones Outline the
Position of the United States on BIZ
Mstalism . Prospects That Something
Practical May Be Done.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 26.-At the meeting
of the international monetary confer
ence Senator William B. Allison and
Senator John P. Jones set forth the
American proposals and reviewed the
monetary situation in the United
States and other countries represented
by conference. He submitted general
plan on bi-metalism offered by the
United States showing:
First-That the re-establishment and
maintenance of fixed parity between
gold and silver and the continued use Of
both as coined money Of full debt pay
ing power would be productive of i'm
portant benefit to the world. The
American delegates also submitted a
resolution declaring that in the opinion
of the conference it is desirable
that means be found for an increasing
use of silver in the currency systems Of
the nations. A document proposed by
the American delegates and presented
with the resolution explained that they
wished that al opportunity be afforded
to consider their plans.
The document submitted by the
Americans concluded as follows: These
ends will be accomplished by the re-
moval of the legal restrictions now
existing and the coinage of silver into
full legal tender money, restoring by
international agreement a parity of
value between the metals at such a
ratio as the conference may decide
upon. The essentials of such an inter-
national agreement should be:
First-The unrestricted coinage of
both gold and silver into money of full
debt paying power.
Second-Fixing ratio of the coinage
between the metals.
Third-The establishment of uni
form charge, if any, to the public for
coming gold and silver coins.
English influences are evidently busy
in opposing American schemes. The
English delegates hardly made any con-
cealment of the fact that they mean, if
possible, to make the conference unsuc-
cessful. They privately hint that the
object of England's representation in the
conference is to enable the British gov
eminent to tell the government of India
that they have done all that is possible,
and that, if no agreement can be arrived
at, it is because the problem is an insolv-
able one.

STILL FORA TARIFF
PRESIDENT HARRISON At WORK ON
HIS LAST MESSAGE.

Recent Republican Defeat Has Not
Changed His Views on the Tariff:
Figures from the Annual Report of
United States Treasurer Nebeker.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.-President
Harrison has followed new method Of
work in preparing his annual message
this year, says a gentleman who saw
him at work on it. This message is of
particular interest because it will be the
last annual message which he will send
to congress. 1t has been the custom OF
the president in past years to twrite his
message on pad of memorandum paper,
sitting at his desk in his Office at the
White House or in his room, writing
when the fancy seized him or when
some idea was suggested to his mind.
"But this year." he says, 81 am doing
something have never done before. l
am debating my message to stenogra-
pher. find that the physical effort Of
writing on this pad of paper is exhaust
ing"
The president looked weary as he
spoke. There Is not an unhealthy look
in his face, but there lies in it today the
expression of deep sorrow. 1t is scanned
with wrinkles. The great strain of the
long days of Mrs. Harrison's last illness
have told upon him. Before they came
he was a man of tireless energy. Work
never seemed to exhaust him. Particu-
larly was this true of mental labor. The
presidents ideas flow slowly and stead
lily, and he grasps his subject with a
completeness that is wonderful. He
used to sit for hours at time at Ills
desk writing steadily, not changing a
word or altering the position of a
comma, so perfectly and 30 accurately
did his thoughts frame themselves.
Still Advocates Protection.
81 prefer to write my message my
SELF" said the president, continuing.
"My thoughts flow more freely from my
pencil and my words, as they appear on
the paper, are an inspiration to me.
But find now that 1 soon become ex-
hausted. find, too, that l cannot fix
my mind on my subject soreadily when
I am writing with pencil. My
thoughts wander away from the sub
ject before 1 have written down the
words that come to me. would greatly
prefer to write out my message for
find that my language is stronger, my
sentences better rounded when I put
them on paper myself"
1.-THE newspapers of the United States
are taking a great interest in what you
may say on the tariff question" said
the visitor. "It looks as though it
were McKinleyism that defeated the
Republican party and they are anxious
to know whether you will modify your
views on the question in this message"
The president had thrown himself on
to his chair prepared to take up his
work again. He leaned back, and look
ing his visitor squarely in the face,
said:
"The newspapers of the United States
ought to known me we'll enough to be-
lieve that when I advocate a system I
am not going to change my views
merely because of defeat in election"

THE IMMIGRATION QUESTION.
Divergent Views OF the Senate Committed
Makes Progress Very Slow.

Divergent Views Of the Senate Committee
Makes Progress Very Slow.
NEW YORK, Nov. Ex-senator Chand-
Ter, chairman of the senate committee
on immigration, said that little progress
had been made in dealing with the ques-
ton of immigration by the committee.
The failure to arrive at an immediate
conclusion on the subject is said to be
due to the diverging opinions of the
nine members of the committee. Nearly
every member has different views of
what kind of legislation is needed. Some
favor, for time at least, the stopping
of all immigration, while others think
the restriction of immigration to half OF
one-fourth of its present proportions,
would be sufficient for the present A
conference is being held by members of
the committee for the purpose of trying
to unite upon single scheme.
