Meantime the scene was one of inde-
scribahle confusion; passengers were
hiding beneath the seats and women

the robbers, realizing that the Job was a
failure, stopped the train. jumped eff
and disappeared in the darkness. 1t is
believed some of them were wounded.

PARIS, Dec. 13--Minister OF Finance
Rouvier today resigned as the resul5 OF
a letter by Clemenceau in Figaro. inn
plicating him. with Reinach and Herr,
in the Panama canal scandal. The po-
litical situation is very cri.icFl, and
another government crisis ia EXTREMITY
likely. +,
LIE GauIois publishes story in detail,
protesting to give the story of the last
hours of Baron Reinach. 1t says after
his visit, with CIemenceau and Rouvier
to Herr, for the. purpose Of getting the
papers to let up in their publication of
Panama canal details, and finding that
Herr would do nothing, be realized that
there was no escaping the results of his
acts. So he went home at midnight,
wrote number OF letters, DESTROYED
compromising documents, and at
O'Clock took poison.
In the deputies Rouvier confirmed the
statement by Clemenceau that he and
Reinach visited Clemenceau on the eve
of the baron's death, and that the three
visited Herr to induce him to use his
influence to stop the attacks on Rein
ach. Herr informed them that it was
not in his power to stop the attacks, and
the visitors left.
Paul de Roulede made violent attack
upon Rouvier, declaring that he ought
to be compelled to appear before court
OF justice and answer the charges against
him in connection with his conduct
while holding ministerial position.
Rouvier said he was ready TO answer
the charges in any court, adding that he
visited Reinach solely from motives of
humanity.
Shortly after Rouvier's visit to Presi-
dent Carnot the latter officially an
nounced that the finance miaister's res-
ignation was accepted and that Nrard
was appointed to succeed Rouvier.
Premier Ribot has decided 10 make
the Bosserin bill cabinet issue, end
stand or fall by the chambers rejection
or adoption OF the measure.
TAe penarrA canal snvestigs tirg tssass
mittee by a vote of IL to 7 rejected
Barthou's proposal that allegations not
connected with Panama canal affairs
should not be heard. 1t was decided,
however, to cancel all personal evil
dence.
LIE Temps today says chemical analy-
els of the viscera of Baron de Reinach
disclosed the presence of atrophine in
the organs examined. Reinach's valet,
in testifying before the magistrate, sd-
mitted that he found bottle of poison
beside the baron's dead body.
The committees decision to hear evil
dence not directly bearing upon the
Panama scandal has caused great con-
sternation among the Republican mem
bers of the chamber. A meeting oi va
rious Republican factions has been
called for tomorrow to consider the fu-
ture course of the Republicans in view
Of the present agitation and unexpected
extensions of the Panama canal inquiry.

THE MoNETARY coNFERENCE.:

Senator Jones Makes Strong Argu-
ment for Bi-Meta1.ism.
BRUSSELS, Dec. 13 AT the sitting to-
day of the international monetary con-
ference Sir Guildford Houldsworth, one
of the delegates representing the Indian
government, protested against the OBJ
structions offered by the British dele
gates at this and previous conferences
that but for the tactics employed by the
representatives. of Great Britain the
currency question would have been set
tied long ago. Sir Guildford declared
that the situation in Great Brit
ain had greatly changed since
November 22d, the date OF the first
meeting of the conference, and he
suggested that the conference adjourn
few weeks to enable the British gov
ernment to reconsider the whole ques-
ton. He gave as the reasons for the
change in the situation in Great Britain
the 81 statement in favor of bi-metallism
made by Archbishop Wash OF Dublin
the resolutions adopted by the agricul-
tural conference held few days ago in
London, and the petitions forwarded to
the government by various chambers of
commerce.
Senator Jones made a long address on
bi metallism, reviewing the history of
the question at great length. He argued
from this history that the increase
of the silver production had led ever to
the revival of industry and com.
merce. The demopetization of silver
caused disastrous fall in prices
throughout the civilized world The
prosperity of every century depended up
on the stability OF the value Of its money
The uninterrupted employment of the
people could be accomplished only
through the instrumentality of time
contracts, which often deferred the date
of payments many years. Any increase
in the value OF the money on which the
terms OF the contracts were based bore
down crushingly upon the employers,
who saw all their foresight thwarted by
a subtle, inexplicable- power. Such
phenomena were followed by suspen-
sion of work,and enterprise, and enforced
idleness upon the labori, g classes.
Senator Jones then driited OFF to the
subject OF checks, certificates and other
substitutes for money. Even when
used to the utmost, said he, they could
bring no permanent relief to the present
situation. They were mere narcotics !;
only the reconciliation of silver would
be an adequate remedy.
Senator Jones was listened to with
the closest attention by the conference.
