Ovation to General Booth.

LONDON, Feb. -. The Salvationists
OF London and in fact Of all parts Of the
kingdom took occasion today to show
their love and loyalty for General Booth.
who has just arrived in England after a
long visit to Australia and India. Gen.
Booth arrived at 3 o'clock and was the
recipient of an ovation that became al
most riotous in it's demonstrativeness.
The procession OF Salvationists which
Gen. Booth reviewed was a mile long
and in it were cars emblematic OF Gen.
Booths travels in foreign lands. As the
PROCESSION marched past the place where
the general stood the SalvatiOnists gave
him a welcoming cheer. After the line
had all passed in review Gen. Booth was
driven back to the headquarters OF the
army in Queen Victoria street. The
whole route taken by his carriage from
Hyde park to headquarters was filled by
an enthusiastic crowd.

Squaw Men in California.

A dozen or more years ago he married

ranches in this region. has served as
guide to camping and hunting parties,
and has striven to bring up his half
breed family into as much civilization
as it has had capacity and as he has still
had taste for. With his wv people,
who live in Ohio, he broke off all con

law in gold. 1t does not follow
that the price of silver fixed
by the ratio in this bill
can be maintained ever if our govern
ment is willing to receive the payment OF
it's dues in silver coin and to pay its debts
in gold. The exchange value of silver
will be dependent alone not on the will
ingness of the government to keep up the
exchange, but on it's ability to do So; tni
judgment as to that ability is passed not
alone into the debt of the treasury but
in the markets of the world. Even spec
ulation on the ultimate failure of our
treasury to maintain its policy might
well suffice to drive gold to a premium,
p~recipitate a scramble for gold in the
treasury, and suspend gold payments by
the government regardless OF the will of
the secretary of the treasury. The mi
nority submit that the only possible re-
suit of the legislation proposed in this
bill is the prompt suspension of gold pay
ments by this government and the imme-
diate adoption Of the cheaper monetary
standard of silver
The history of monetary changes in
the past is then recited. The consent
of nations is held to make and unmake
money and an international agreement
is urged as necessary. The statement is
made that the bill ear not raise the price
of silver to the ratio value and that it
will bring silver from foreign countries.
The worlds stock Of silver is set forth in
figures to a total being S1,39S. 0OO,0OO. 1t
is held that the silver coming from
abroad would destroy the gold standard
and the savings banks depositors, arts
ans, and pensioners. it is claimed, would
suffer. Summarizing, finally the minor
ity urge that not even the advocates OF
free silver coinage deny that this law is
an experiment new in the history of
mankind and based upon conditions
which have never existed. For such
an experiment rs is proposed
nothing can be Il justification
which has not in It the certainty Of a
great reward to the people who under

The final figures of pig iron and steel

Steel association. Pig iron production

REPORT
IN the Bland silver Bill Presented by
the Committee.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10. Williams of
Massachusetts, from the committee on
soinage, weights and measures submitted
the views Of the minority on the Bland
free coinage bill today. The character
and purpose of the bill is outlined and
the following construction put forward:
The peril is great of the avOwed de-
probation by our government of the
value Of its own promises. We shall
never openly %repudiate u debts or cor
rupt the medium of payment so that the
danger lies in legislation such as this bill
proposes which shall make the govern
ment unable to maintain its promises
and tokens on the basis upon which they
have been accepted. That basis is the
dollar which is exchangeahl, everywhere,
which does not give up thirty cents
at our border, nor yield writh-
ings to fire or water, the
dollar Of gold. Substantially
all obligations now existing in this coun-
try are expressly payable in gold or have
been incurred since this nation resumed
specie payments and has continued on
the gold basis. The gold dollar is there
fore not only the best. but the only hon
est. dollar in which obligations can now
be discharged. But under a plausible
theory or a confident prophecy the cit
liens OF this country may be mlsled into
a population which they would not con-
scientlously approve. TO make this bill
understood as a measure OF reputation
il to secure it's defeat
The minority next set up the claim
that the effect Of the bill clearly must be
this: Thatthe mints OF this country shall
receive all the silver which may be sent
from any quarter for coinage into dollars,
sixteen OF which shall be convertible
into one gold dollar 1t is perfectly clear
that the very moment the treasury OF
the United States shall refuse to pay
gold coin upon demand no one else will
receive sixteen silver dollars in lieu Of
one gold dollar because the single
customer Of the world for silver at that
price has refused to purchase. Surely
there can be no doubt that the effort To
raise the market price Of silver from 30
cents per ounce 10 $l.23R per ounce il
depended entirely On the combined
Willingness and ability Of the United
States government 10 stand alOnea as the
buyer Of silver ut all times and in any
susntity at a price fixed by this
