serted that If the United States would
maintain the present Sherman law on the
statute books, England would renew the
free coinage of silver in India and at an
increased ratio of "a to /. Most pains
taking search fails to produce single
Senator who ever heard the idea sug-
gested, and when the proposition was un-
folded, it was seen that both silver and
anti-silver advocates were opposed to it.

source" said Senator Teller, ssthe presi-
dent might very naturally be expected to
agree to it, as everything that England
wants appears to meet his approval. -
However, he did not credit the story.

it was useless for the defendant to intro
duce any other testimony. Upon this the

a showing that Little was denied the
right for preliminary examinations. De-
fendant's attorneys will attempt to have
