How . Danish Delegate To the Monetary
Conference Would Aid Silver.
BRUSSELS, Nov. S0.-The committee OF
twelve appointed by the international
monetary conference to examine into and
report on the proposals submitted by Mr..
Alfred de Rothschild, one of the British
delegates. sat yesterday for eight honrs
with only q short interval tor
luncheon. Senator Jones, one Of
the American delegates. has pre-
pared d special statement of the consump-
ton and production of silver. The
committee has consented to request the
Danish delegate. &. 4. Tietjen, to submit
his plan as an addendum to the Rothschild
plan. Mr.. Tietjen Is q monometaliist. he
proposes the coinage of silver hve-franc,
four-shilling and dollar pieces. rated TO
gold according TO the prIoe of silver in the
year previous TO the adption of an inter-
national agreement. with ~seignorage OF 10
per cent. He also proposes the appointment
of q permanent international commission
to fx the initial price. Should the price
of silver fall 5 per cent. below
the coinage ratio the commission
will have authority to nix q
new ratio and order the recoinage of the
pieces. These coins will be legal tender
internationally. banks to keep them as a
reserve against notes and to have the right
70 demand gold in exchange for them at
any time from the government issulng the
particular coin held. The members of the
committee declare that their proceedings
must be kept completely private until
definite decisions are attained. They will
not c0mmanicaue to delegates not belong
ing TO the committee the progress they are
making In she discussion.
1t IL now regarded as certain that tho
committees having in charge the Roth
schild silver proposals. will recommend the
adoption of Mr.. De Rothschild's plan. with
important notifications. including a sug-
gestion that the limit for the purchase of
silver be reduced to three years. 1t is un-
derstood that the recommendation will not
be presented as the unanimous report of
the committee, but that the views of the
minority will be explicitly stated. The
American delegates, although they invite
discussion of the Rothsotild and other
plans. intend to have their own scheme of
international bimetallism thoroughly de-
bated. The majority of the delegates seem
tonight to be inclined to adopt the Roth
schiId plan modified by suggestions from
the Zoetber and Levi plans.
