OPPOSED TO FREE SILVER.

New York Chamber of Commerce Demands
an international Conference.
NEW YORK, March 22-[SpeciaL THE
Chamber of Commerce forwarded yesterday
to the Senate and House of Representa-
tives a memorial on the silver question,
which concludes as foil ows:
The Chamber Of Commerce respectfully
submit that the interests of the country de-
mand:
First-That all existing legislation which
requires tho Secretary of the Treasury to
purchase silver bullion shall be repealed.
Second-That the opening of the mints to
the free coinage of silver would, by degrad-
ing the standard of value, eject a conf1sca-
tion and transfer OF wealth unparalleled in
the history of civilized nations, and produce
an amount or distress for which not the
slightest justification is to be found in ne
cessity, policy, or morals.
Third-That the only practical mode of
dealing with the silver question is by an in :
ternational conference and negotiation with
the other great commercial nations of the
world, looking to the restoration of silver
to its place as international money upon q
fair basis of relative market value with gold,
and to such an extent as the conditions OF
commerce and the Judgment of financial
authorities will Justify.
