days time all the buildings on an area of
436 acres, l3,200 in number, had been
destroyed. The magnificent church OF

were destroyed, INJECTING loss Of s53.-
$4,000. Many years were needed for
the city to recover. On September IA.
1912, the Russians set fire to the city Of
Moscow. for the purpose Of driving out
the French army under Napoleon. The
coniiagration ragged for Eve days. 10000
houses were burned, and the money loss
was s15O,OOO.OOO. Full recovery never
came. October 8. 1871. there broke out
in Chicago, the greatest Ere of modern
times. 1t lasted two days, and 1900
buildings were burned, involving loss
Of sl95 100000. In 1875, the city was re-

scheme. in recognition of the secretary
original suggestion of it's q PROPOSE
ton to replenish the treasury by the issue
of nat money. 1t proposes to compute
the difference between the cost in treasury
notes of the silver bullion now lying un-
coined in the vaults and the nominal value
of the silver dollar which could be coined
therefrOm. and to issue against this
sum silver certificates which could be al

current needs. This, as the minority of
the committee accurately describes il, is
simply a project for watering the cur
renCy The treasury notes issued in pay
ment for the silver bullion are already in
excess of the market value OF the bullion
to the extent of more than $50. 0G0, 600
In other words. the collateral behind these
treasury notes is already more than 500
coo. 600 short. This being the case. the
Democratic party proposes to steal a por-
ton of the remaining collateral, or which
is equivalent u the same thing, TO issue
500. 100000 more of paper money upon
that collateral. Every dollar of the new
certificate will bear upon its face the dec
laration that a silver dollar has been
deposited for its redemption III the treas

hood, for no such deposit will have been
made There will be nothing in the
treasury as a basis Tor the new certificates
except the deprecated silver bullion. which
is already more than covered by the
treasury notes issued when il was pur-
chased.

scheme is essentially dishonest. II more
