India Absorbed Vast Quantities
OF the White Metal.
NEW YORK, June 27.--Edward o
Leech, who was director of the United
States mint when the Brussels confer
ence was held, attended the meetings of
that body in an advisory capacity. In
an interview Mr.. Leech said:
"Silver, as is we'll known, is the only
legal tender money in British India. tt
is estimated that there is in circulation
about S1,000.000,Q00 ill India. LII forms
the entire circulation medium of the
country, for while there is some rupee
paper in circulation in Bombay, Madras
and few larger cities, there are
no banks: no substitutes for money like
checks. ETC., throughout the country,
and everything in the shape of money
consists of silver rupees and fractions
of rupee. Gold is not legal tender in
India, although the gold mohur and di-.
visions are coined. The ratio in In
dian coinage between gold and silverls
fifteen to one, so that an ounce 0fsilver
in such coinage is valued at about
Sl.36. India has always been the
silver sink of the world, the natural
receptacle of all silver surplus for
which there is no actual demand. India
absords in coinage more silver than any
other country in the world, about $4U,-
000,0O0 annually. This fact will give
some idea of the tremendous effect the
closing of the India mints to silver coin
age will have upon the price of the
white metal. 1t is warning to the
United States that we cannot safely 90
farther in the absorption of depreci-
ated metal in this country without seri-
ously embarrassing our financial sys-

GRAND FORKS, n. d. June 27.-If
Bishop Fowler, of Minneapolis. i'm
agines the ill-feeling among the Meth
odist churches of the Grand Forks dis
trict over the bishops action in the pre-
siding elder matter is dying out. the idea
might have been dispelled il he had
been here last night and attended. a
meeting OF laymen, representing the
churches in Grand Forks, Larimore,
Park River. Pembina. st. Thomas,
Bowesmont, Drayton, Forest River,
Thompson and others of the strongest
charges of the district, to consider the
bishops action. The meeting was a
most enthusiastic one and the feeling
was most intense.
The session lasted from O'Clock last
evening until O'clock this morning.
The sentiment was unanimous in de-
nonncing Bishop Fowler, but the dele
gates differed as to the methods of deal
ling with the matter. Resolutions,
insurrection and other vigorous meas
ures were proposed and rep resentativeS
OF several charges affirmed that their
entire churches would withdraw from
the denomination if the injustice was
uOt llS SHtcu. IA l1UIG COuStIpdtlft l0tl-
ing prevailed, however, and the follow
ing resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, Bishop C. H. Fowler has not ac-
knowledged i'll any manner the receipt of
our request for an interview with him in the
city OF Grand Forks, at which interview we
might have an opportunity to show him that
we had grievance OF which to complain
and that knowingly or unknowingly he had
done serious inj ustice to Brother g. s.
White and the Gfaud Forks district IN the
matter of the presiding edership; and that
It is quite clear that it is useless to look to
Bishop Fowler in the premises; therefore.
Resolved, That as we cannot reach the
bishop in any way exceptthrough the presId.
ing. elder Understanding to the traditional
and constitutional theory of Episcopal func-
nnns-represents primarily the bishop, and
In whose person the bishop remains after
conference has adjourned. we will not recog-
nize or receive, or pay S. E. Ryan as presid-
Ing elder during the present conference year,
and further,
Resolved. That at the next North Dakota
annual conference the churches present
unite in making request tor the restoration
of q. S. White to the Office of presiding elder
of the Grand Forks district, from which he
was unnecessarily and unjustly removed.

the Annual Meeting.


the Annual Meeting.
Boston, June 27.-The annual meet
ing of the Society of the Army of the
Potomac was held today in Faneuil
hall. The attendance was large. with
many noted men among the veterans.
VIII lie the members were assembling a
salute was fired by Battery A, on the
commons. Before the business meeting
of the society closed the various corps
who meet in the hall gathered at the
hall of the. honorable artillery. The
convention was called to order by Gen.
Porter. He made no formal speech. The
next business was the selection of
place for the next annual meeting. Con-
cord, n. H., was chosen. 1t was voted
that the life membership fee be reduced
from $40 to $40. On motion Of Gen.

senting the Eleventh and Twelfth corps

UNCLE SANS COURSE.
He Must Stop the Purchase of
Bullion at Once.

New YORK. June 27.-Henry W. Can
non, president of the Chase National
bank, and also one of the delegates to
the monetary conference at Brussels.
said regarding the Indian silver sensa-
tion:
1.-The importance of the action of the
government of India in stopping the
coinage of silver cannot be overesti-
mated at this time. 1t was the only
country, with the exception of Mexico,
in the world the mints of which were
open to the coinage of silver with
out limitation. Therefore at the
present time the only countries
in the world which are continuing
to produce silver legal tender
money are the United States and Mex
leo, and it must be clear, even to a
casual observer. that 1t Is impossible for
the United States to safely continue the
coinage of silver or the issuance of
money against bullion purchases. In
all Europe silver is diShonored and gold
Is fast becoming the only money of full
debt-paying power. The course of the
United States is clear. We must i'm
mediately stop the further purchase of
silver and the issuance Of silver legal
tender money. 1f this course is pursued
there is very little doubt that the other
nations will be brought to realizing
sense OF the condition of monetary
affairs, and the place of silver as
money metal throughout the world will
be settled within reasonable time.
Our government is pledged to maintain 4
all OF our money on gold basis, and
some action should be taken at once to
remove the prevailing feeling of distrust
and discomfort

Opinions Expressed by Bankers

CHICAGO. June 27.-The silver ques-
tion, brought to such a commanding
place in finance by the action of India
in stopping the free coinage of silver.
continues to agitate the business men in
Chicago. Clinton b. Evans, editor of
the Economist, today said:
I'm regard to the action taken by the
Indian government, it is the most i'm
portant financial event of recent years.
1t forces the issue at once, and will
compel immediate action by congress

tense. 1t will enable the friends of

might be long time reaching
j. ID. Mitchell, president of the
Illinois Trust and Savings bank, saw no
occasion for alarm. He thought that
the position taken by India would force
this government to retire from its false
position as a compulsory purchaser of
silver. Asked about the probable eff
feet on wheat. William Dunn, for
many years one of the larg-
est exporters of wheat OH the
board of trade. said he thought
it would tend to curtail shipments from
India. N. B. Ream did not think the
silver question would be as important
factor in the wheat market as may be
imagined. William Baker said that

DENVER, Col, June 27.-The Denver
smelters feel very severely the drop in
silver. There are no means of knowing
where it will end, and Tor the present
they are III an embarrassing state of un-
certainty as to what their losses will be.
The local smelters have onrhand an
average of about 100000 ounces each,
enough to last for several months with
out making any new contracts, but the
trouble is, there is now absolutely no
market for silver, and if the smelt-
erS cannot dispose of the product of
their works it will be an impossibility to
continue running them. 1t is estimated
that the smelters here and throughout
the state have lost in the aggregate
s650,000 on ore bought last week, and
which has fallen so greatly in value in
the past two days. EX-Gov. James B.
Grant, vice president of the Omaha &
Grant Smelling company, says that his
company will make no more contracts
for ore until the silver market is more
settled. President w. l.. Smith, of the
public sanlpling WORKS, also declares
that his company will make no more
contracts at present. Continuing, Mi.
Smith said:
The smelters of Denver are not
likely to close down for couple of
months on account of the large amount
OF ore already on hand, but no more
contracts will be made,a aud the few that
have been may be repealed. They
have all been made in such way that
they may be Cancelled. because of
the uncertainty heretofore existing In
the silver situation. Possibly by the
time the present stock of ore is used up
a settlement of the difficulty will be
reached so that work may be contin-
ued"
Smelters at Pueblo. Leadyille, Aspen
and other points, it is understood. too,
will follow the action of the Denver
smelters. In case they should close
down many thousands of men will be
thrown out of employment, but there is
an impression prevalent that before this
action becomes necessary favorable
turn will occur in the silver market.

MONETARY REVOLUTION.
Views Of the President of the Bi.
metallic League.

Views Of the President of the BIZ
metallic League.
WASHINGTON, June 27.-A. j. War
ner, of Ohio, president of the American
Bimetallic league, said:
The stoppage of the coinage Of silver
in India is the Inauguration of a new
monetary revolution, or rather the ex-
tension to the far East of the revolution
begun in 1S72-73 in the Western world.
1t is the second act in the same great
conspiracy. 1t is a movement deep
seated and will be far-reaching in its
consequences. / look upon this act of
lndia's, by which the gateways of the
East are closed to silver, to-
gether with the determined purpose
of the mOnOmotalliStS of this country
to repeal the Sherman act, as events
fraught with greater danger to man
than anything that has before trans
pired within the century. What be-
comes now of the claim that the United
States must stop the purchase of silver
in order to force England to join in an
international agreement. England has
determined if possible to force the re-
peal OF the silver purchase law in the
United States The closing of the mints
Of Bombay and Calcutta is part of the
gigantic conspiracy to seize upon the
present opportunity to establish finally
and forever the single gold standard,
and to extend it over the world.
This is the critical juncture. The
turning point is now. If free coinage
were restored in the United States it
would be the end of the single gold
standard. On the other hand, if the ab-
solute repeal of the present Silver law
In the United States can be forced
through the work is done. 1t was there
fore deemed safer to stop COIN
age in India first. The immediate
consequences will be that silver
will fail, and gold will increase In value
faster than ever. Prices will soon begin
to. fall in India. The whole world in
