to continue ten minutes. but Mr.. Outh-
| waite Ohio objected.
Mr.. Wheeler (Ala.) in a two-minute
| speech deplored the action about to be

port of democratic principles and policies.
Mr.. Springer Qll) said he did not know
whether the panic had been precipitated
as a stock jobbing operation or not, but he
did know that crisis was upon the coun-
try, which the passage of this bill would
avert.
Mr.. Livingstone (Ga.) said he was op-
posed to the pending bill, because 1t would
| enhance the purchasing power of money
and depress prices Of agricultural products.
He was opposed to 1t for the further rea-
son that the declaration of the Voorhees,
bill left the settlement of the question of
the use of silver as money to an interna-
said, Ito submit the destinies of this coun-
try to the representatives of any European
power. / think 1t shame that the Ameri
can Congress should pass a bill containing
such a declaration
Mr.. Reeds Remarks.
Mr.. Reed (A1e.) said he had told Mr..
Bryan some time ago that he would learn
| the difference between promise and per-
| Torrance by the democrats when he came
| to test the matter. He had no doubt the
country was better off whenever the DEM
ocratic party disappointed it. The trouble
with the country, Mr.. Reed said, lay deeper
| than the money panic 1t was due to
| doubt as to the policy of the democratic
party upon the tariff, and he expected
great manufacturing depression to follow
TINS winter, despite the passage of the BILL
| Messrs. Tracey (N.Y.) and Wilson (W.Va.)
closed the debate by brief speeches, the lat
ter saying that the effects of the bill could
| only be demonstrated by experience. He
believed that they would be beneficial, and
that the friends of the measure would be
written down in history as wise statesmen
and friends of the people.

Mr.. Bryan's Statement.
Mr. Bryan was then given permission to
make a statement. He said that recog-
nizing the fact that there were too few
opponents of the bill to make filbustering
effective he would not further oppose its
passage; if any good result could be
cured he would gladly refuse to vote, If
thereby he could prevent what he believed
to be the commission of a crime against
his people. In conclusion he warned the
promoters of the bill to be aware of the
consequences, which he hoped would not
be of the nature he feared, and predicted
came to express themselves upon this ques-
ton, send a majority to the House and
to the Senate who believed that this coun-
try is big enough to legislate for itself.
