BRUSSELS. Dec. 5.-When the internA-
tioual monetary conference resumes Its sit
tiugs tomorrow the first matter peudlug
settlement Will be whether the report OF
the committee appointed to consluer the
Rothschild plan shall be further debated,
or whether the proposals of.the American
delegates shall be proceeded with. Mr.
de Rothschild, Sir c. Fremantle and Sir
William Houldsworth, all Of whom are
British delegates, desire some expression
of opinion regarding Mr.. de Rothschild's
plan from the full conference. Mr.. Ber
tram Currie another British delegate, aims
to briug the conference TO speedy close.
and iD common with some OF the other
delegates who are resigned 20 see the con-
ference result IN a failure, would acceIe-
rate the consideration OF the American
resolutions as Fastening the winding up
of the meeting.
Sir c. Fremantle, with a view to the re-
sumption of debate on the Rothschild plan,
has amended his declaration declining
10 pledge the English government 10
withdraw its half sovereign pieces III favor
of silver, by adding the WORDS except con
child project or some other proposal hav-
ing the same compensatory value" Sir
G.. FremanCle, who Is deputy master o1
the British mint, has never before been
known to take independent action or
per-Oual initiative, and II Is therefore
taken for granted that he Is the mouth
piece of the British government III an-
nouncing assent to the abolition or the
half sovereigns if, despite the adverse re-
port of the committee, the full conference
adopt the Roth>Ch;id plan.
a number of the delegates want the con-
ferenco to Close or adjourn on December
i6i h at the latest. Il an adjournment Is
taken it is doubtful If there will be full
attendance when the sittings are resumed
in January.
MIR. Carrie has sent to the Times a YER
batim report of the speech he made before
the conference on Friday. This report
is similar TO the heretofore published ac-
counts of the speech only in It's advocacy
of a gold standard. Mr.. Carrie IS the
strongest personality among the British
delegates, and he will not bulge AL inch
toward u compromise.
The next meeting Ia expected to be of
unusual interest. Congressman James B.
McCreary, one of the United States dele
gates. Is expected to make an important
statement with reference 10 The American
program and the probable future policy OF
his government. The possibility OF tue
repeal of the Sherman act was discussed
among the members of the conference to-
day The opinion was that IL would be
serious blow, unless accompanied by some
other special legislation IN support OF sill
yer.
THE WALL STREET VIEW.
NEW YORK, Dec. 5-Henry Clews, in
his weekly financial circular, writing of
the Brussels conference. discusses Mr..
Alfred de RCthschild's proposals that, for
each Of the next five years, the European
governments snail collectively buy -, 000,
900 worth of silver at maximum price OF
43 pence per ounce and that the United
States shall for the same period con-
tiuue TO buy n, 600 000 ounces. Mr.. Clews,
among other things, saws:

face the scheme is an attempt to saddle
the United States with the responsibility
