GERMANY is AGHAST.
Unable to Understand the Financial De.
preston in America.

preston in America.
BERLIN, May 19-The firm Of which
the late Baron Bleichroder r, the famous
tinancier and friend of Prince Bis.
marck, was the chief, and which still
holds a leading place in Ger
man finance, states in an inter-
view that Germany is aghast
at the falling prices in America. It was
expected that an increase of business
and consequent rise of prices would
follow the opening of the Chicago
Worlds Fair. The only apparent reason,
the firm states, for the bad condition Of
affairs in America, is the unsettled con-
dition of the silver question and the alb
sence in America of a state bank similar
to that of Germany. Both Ger
many and England would be
glad to have the silver question set
tied by the Brussels monetary
conference; or in any other way. Ger
many, however, will not adopt BIZ
metallism. Germany owes its infuen-
tial position to sound gold policy.
The key to the present position lies in
London. 1t was added in the
expression of opinion by the
Bleichroder firm that they did not re-
gard the proposed intervention of the
Bank Of England in aid of Australian
banks with favor and thought this expe-
dent would result more unfavorably
than in the case of the Earrings.

II. X. Thurter, of tie Thurber.
Whyland Wholesale Grocery Com
pany of New York City, attended the
county convention held in this city
yesterday. Mr.. Thurber is rated Il
millionaire; but his wealth is invested
ia various business enterprises. He
therefore feels the financial depres>
sion very keenly, although his pres.
ence here at the present time evinces
the fact that his affairs, vast as they
are. are in q comparatively easy con-
dit,on.
About . year ago Mr.. Thurber
came mere in search of recreation. He
had travelled over the Northwest,
through Colorado, California and the
intervening territory, but had never
como to Idaho. He WAS charmed
with Wood River AMI determined to
spend another summer here. Inci
dentally-for, like all busy and suc>
cessiul men. Mr.. Thurber must have
something to do, even when enjoying
a vacation he became interested in
a group of claims at tn" head Of
Narrow Gauge gulch. He had
studied the money question and been
a bimetsllist all his life. But being
brought into direct contact with some
OF the people engaged in producing
the money metals, his conviction that
as in nature silver aud gold are usu.
ally associated, so they ought to be in
the economy of nations, was greatly
strengthened, and he has since, a,
every opportunity, strenuously upheld
the nobility of the white metal.
His presence at the convention
yesterday was hailed with great salts
faction; and at the first favorable op.
portunity the chairman of the
assemblsge-As.ociate Justice Sulli
van, of The Idaho Supreme Court
called upon Mr.. Thurber for few
remarks which, he confidently ex'
pected, would be encouraging to u,
whose lines are cast in the Gem o.

The idea pleased, and calls TO,
"ThurbeT!" "Th~rber!" came from al
parts of the hall.
The gentleman thus summoned
arose in his place and began to speak
but he was compelled to ascend tn,
rostrum. Being received with cheers
he spoke substantially as follows:
