THE SHERMAN G
Believed There viii BE Some Substi-
tutc For 1t.

ST. PAUL, July IA Pioneer Press
special from Washington says: All the
free silver men declare that the Sher-
man law shall not be repealed unless
some satisfactory substitute is enacted
in its place. lit is now believed that il
any compromise is reached it will be a
demand that thu bullion now in the
treasury be coined into silver dollars.
There are 1913, 0O0, 900 ounces of silver
bullion now in the treasury. This cost
the government a little over $1l7, 0O0,-
900. In coin it would amount by reason
OF seignorage to about S166, 900, QUO. To
coin this amount OF bullion about five
years win be required.
Among the other concessions pro-
posed is the coinage of 500, 00O, 600 in
subsidiary coin. This proposition, it is
claimed by its advocates, would meet
with great favor among the farmers
and w~orkingmen of the South and
Southwest, where the free silver senti-
ments are especially strong. In coin
ing this subtreasury coin it is suggested
that all 81 and 90 bills of paper be re-
tired, which would force this silver
coin into circulation. Senator Vest
Of Missouri, who was a member
of the finance committee, suggested
coinage at a ratio of 90 to /. Since
that time, however, the decrease in the
price of silver has been such that the
ratio according to values should be %. z
to /.
1t seems impossible to convince the
silver men that they can establish a
parity by increasing the amount Of
silver in the dollar until it is worth as
much as a gold dollar. Such PROPOSE
tons as these do not come from silver
producing states. who want to keep mp
the market price Of their products and
insist upon the present ratio.
