Their relative value settled, however,
about the middle of the seventeenth cen
tury, at between 10 and 16 to /. In Eng
land it was fixed by Sir Isaac Newton, in
17l7, at about Is 1.5 to 1. At the COM
mencement OF this -tury 1SO3) France
cOnformed to the mean of the relations
existing at that time by fixing it at 1515
to l. The fluctuations In the relative
market value of gold aud silver were un-
important during the present century
until 1878, when the German and Ameri-
can laws to demonetize silver were
enacted. The determination of Germany
to enact such law had been previously
announced by the decree of December
4, 1871, and the American movements to
the same end, which seem TO have been
better understood in Europe than In this
country, were commenced as early as
1868.
The general money system of Europe
had been that of the double standard
until 1878. The conspicuous exceptions
were Holland, which had been during
much the larger part of its history a
single silver standard country, and Eng
land, which had adopted the single gold
standard in 1916 by law, and in 1921 In
fact. In consequence of the apprehen-
sions of fall in the value of money, or,
what amounts to the same thing, a rise
in wages and In the price of property,
excited by the California and Australian
yield Of gold, Belgium adopted single
silver standard In 1850, and the German
states in 1857. Belgium, however, re-
turned to the double standard In 1851.
Germany and the United States de-
monetized silver In 1873 At that time it
was neither deprecated nor unsteady in
value, nor had any change occurred in
the relative production, consumption or
distribution of the precious metals to in
dicate Its depreciation in the future, nor
was any actual or probable depreciation
assigned as reason for Its demonetiza-
tlon. The average flow Of silver to India
was undlsturbed, and the Big Bonanza
In the Comstock lode was undiscovered.
MRnifestly, the real reason for the de-
monetiZation of silver WAS the anDrehen-
sion of the creditor classes that the COM
blned production of the two metals
would raise prices and cheaper money
unless one of them was shorn of the
money function. In Europe this reason
was distinctly avowed.
1t cannot be successfully controverted
that the sole causes Of the recent dis

have compiled the generally accepted
statistics of the production of the prec-
ious metals in this country, was taken
with the view Of ascertaining their
methods of computation and the relt-
ability thereof.
Briefly the investigation shows that
the product Of the Big Bonanza thus far
has not exceeded $52,5OO, 900 during the
four years that 1t has been worked, max
ing an annual average of about $13,OOO,-
600, of which As per cent. was gold, leav-
Ing for the average annual product Of
silver from this ore-body a fraction over
100000.
Taking all the mines Of the Comstock
lode together, during sixteen years Of
unprecedented activity in mining, as
sisted by the most perfect and powerful
mechanical appliances, there rave been
found some twelve or thirteen ore-bodles,
which have yielded, altogether, about
$240,0O0,000 or an annual average of $15,-
100000, of which about AK per cent,
or $7,125,OOO, was gold, leaving $685.
900 as the average annual production of
silver.
The silver product Of the state Of Ne
vada has been collated only for the six
years ended December 81, 1876. During
this period the average annual product
was $19,OOO,OOO, and for the year 1915 by
itself only $2s,OOO,OOO, instead of $780,
100000, so confidently stated by the
ReichSGnzieger.
The silver product of the United
States during the same period was $685.
100000, making an annual average CT
$26, 10000; the product for 1876 by itself
was $39,20O,0O0. When these returns are
contrasted with the computations which
have hitherto obtained currency, 1t will
be seen that the latter have uniformly
and greatly exaggerated the production
Of silver in this country.
America, since It's discovery, has been
the chief source of the worlds supply OF
the precious metals; and, as the proper
ton of silver in that supply was much
greater prior to the California gold dis
coverles than it was In the Old World,
either before or after the discovery Of
America, the opening of the American
mines was followed by, If 1t did not cause,
q considerable, although slow, widening
of the relation between the two metals.
Humboldt Fluctuations In Supply Of Gold,
published In 1838 says:
The relative value Of gold and silver fluctuated
during the first hundred years subsequent to
the discovery Of the now continent between to
10 7-lO and to 70; In the last two centuries, be-
tween to II and to i6.

They are also indebted TO the bureau OF
statistics, which promptly and cour'
teously furnished all the information
asked for.
Several gentlemen in Europe, eminent
as financial authorities, have addressed
communications to the commission, which
are among the submitted papers. One
of these gentlemen, M. CernuSchi, ap-
peared personally before the commission
and furnished important and valuable
information, which will be found in the
reported testimony. The thanks Of the
country are due to him and to the other
distinguished citizens of foreign nations
who have made these disinterested Of
forts In the elucidation Of a question i'm
portant to the welfare of mankind.
There are also submitted herewith
special reports Of the secretary Of the
commission upon European and Amerl-
can legislation in respect to subsidiary
coinage and upon other subjects.
In respect to the preparation of the
minute on the production Of silver In the
United States, it may be stated that in
1873 new body Of paying ore was dis
covered In one of the mines Of the Com
stock lode in Nevada. Similar bodies of
nearly equal extent had been previously
discovered and exhausted in the Spanish
American sllver-lodes and ia the Com
stock lode, without attracting universal
attention or arousing universal fear that
the commerce of the world was about
to be deluged by a flood of silver, but IN
the present instance, through persistent
and infectious exaggeratiOns In respect
to the extent and richness of the new ore
body, the most visionary expectations
and unwarranted fears became uniVer-
sally epidemic. The estimates of the
value of the ore In sight ranged from
to FIVE times that amount,
all of which was generally believed to
be In silver. The probable out-turn Of
this new bonanza is a leading topic In
the report Of the British silver commits
sion (1876) which contains, among other
evidence on the subject, quotation
from German newspaper, the ReichsGn-
zeiger, of March IA, 1876, which gives, as
foremost of the "three principle causes
for the depreciation of silver"
First--The discovery of the great and cele
brated silver mines in Nevada, which In reality
produce fabulous quantities Of silver, the pro-
ductlOn for the current year being valued at
Ave hundred million francs.
Deeming 1t Of the first Importance
that these estimates and statements
should be subjected to q practical and
careful scrutiny, this commission en-
ployed Mr.. Alexander Del Mar, gentle
man technically qualified for such an In
vestigation, to visit the mines In person,
and ascertain from original sources their
past and prospective production, and also
generally TO inquire into the silver pro-
duction Of the United States, and its
sources.
The result of this mission will be
found In the "Minute on the SilUer Pro-
duction in the United States" referred
to above. Minutes prepared by Mr.. Del
Mar on the coinage Of the United States
since 1899, aunnal production of silver
throughout the world, annual produc-
ton of gold throughout the world, and
on other subjects are also reported here

Judge Foster is regarded by naval Off

that if this is done the Importance of the

authority has been restored by the of
fcials, who have succeeded in stationing
armed guards around the Custom house
and Government stamp building. No
attempt has been made to dislodge the
revOlutionists from their position, nor
will there be until the troops come.
The insurgent leader is reported as is
suing orders to refrain from all violence
until decisive battle is fought. The
town is practically deserted, no business
being transacted, and, all buildings, in
Guiding private residences, have been bar
rlcaded. A revolutionary flame has been
SmOIderlng some time, yet an outbreak
would probably not have occurred had it
not been for the reelection of Ancheta as
Town President, in defiance of public
opinion. While the reVolutionists are

lions are too remote from Ascension tn

That they had been preparing for an
instruction is demonstrated by the fact
that the mill in which they have taken
refuge is well stocked with arms, am
munition and food. It is impossible to
conceive. how the civil authorities have
remained in ignorance of their opera
tons. Even subordinate officials are in
sympathy with the movement, and the
