THE COMMON CH1LICE,


A New Question Forced Upon the Church
To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir: Allow m,
| to say in reply TO the Rev. Mr.. Maxwells criti
| cisms OF those who have addressed you upon the
| question OF the common chalice, that one need
| not DO a graduate in bactcriology to appreciate
what scientists have clearly set forth, the
danger Of cOntagion In a cup passed from lin tc
lip, whether its contents be the wine of the holy
communion or water from the country school
water pail.
Letters which editors determine as prooerly
pertaining TO this subject can be no more OBJ
noxious to those who reverence holy things -
than Is the practice under discussion obno oxious
t 20 tnose VINO, besides IeVerencing holy things,
dwelling place for the immortal soul.
Let Church councils determine upon those
matters which appertain To the body they repre-
sent" says Mr.. Maxwell. This is Just what fHE
Sun snggested in its editorial entitled A Ques-
also practically ouened its columns TO CORE
spondence on the question. But in the Church

continued discussion in the daily press will
bring the councils OF the Church 10 take an en-

The Common ChsIIce Proaouneed SAFE,
To THE EDITOR OF The StN-Sir: Besides
objecting to the views and statements in THE
sun OF Aug. 80 regarding the HOLY Communion,
both from an historical and doctrnal point Of
view, the chief diseases which afiiict humanity,
generally speaking, cannot be communicated by
drinking from common chalice. My state
ments ON this point made only after con-
sultation with prominent physician OF New
York city, and one who is firm believer in the
germ theory. lie confirms my views that.
generally speaking, typhoid fever and cholera
are communicated by germs In drainage or cx-
cTement, that scarlet fever and small pox are
given by germs i'll the hair or clothing com
municatCd by contact; that consumption and
lung diseases come from the drying of expector-
alton, the germs being thus eHhalel into the air
and that therefore these ailments, together with
most minor troubles, cannot come from the
chalice.
Certain diseases. like syphilis, could he so
communicated, but one would scarcely venture
70 say that those so afflicted are To be found at
the altar rail.
. The use Of the individual chaiice Is against
history and reason, and IL Is certainly carving
modern scientific research too far 20 breach
theories respeCt ting ion even in the deepest
mysteries Of the faith, theories which readily
take root in the minds OF the fearful or careless,
and which soon undermine the strongholds OF
faith, religion, and society, and make the poor
terrified mortal look askance at every one and
everything as full Of dangerous, disease giving
microbes! ARCHIBALD CAMPBELL KNOWLEs.

THE wnolcAruoN OF SILVER.


The Evidence Daily Accommodating Show
ing the Eject of Debasing the White
Metal.
American securities have not suffered
alone from the prevailing business de-
preston. English securities have
shared the same misfortunes that be-
fell stocks in this country. The Lon
don Bankers Magazine has an interest
ing article showing the comparative
value Of number of representative
stocks dealt in on the London exchange
during period ranging from the time
of the Barring panic up to the present
time 1t would be interesting to have
the figures previous to the Barring
panic, but they are not given.
Three hundred and thirty-four Sc
curities are represented, OF q par value
of s2, TAI, ,03s, 600. The aggregate value
of these securities in November, 1891.
after the Barring failure, was e., 777,-
100000. On January l. 1898, their ag-
gregate value was So, s37, 100000 Az
the close Of the present year the figures
had dropped to e., 753, 100000 decline
Of 2x per cent
Thus, securities on the London stock
exchange have deprecated something
like 1000, 900 or 1920, 900, 900 during
the past year. This vast amount repre-
sents greater depreciation than that
claimed for the stocks on the New York
exchange during the same period of
time. 1t shows, too, that the deprecia-
tion has not been confined to American
stocks The causes given by the Banls-
ers' Magazine are in order of time, first,
the Australian crisis and dearer money
caused depression; second, fall in Amer
lean securities; third. general fall,
trusts in difficulties
It will be remembered that in this
country. such advocates Of the single
gold standard as the New York Herald
asserted that the fall in values on the
New York stock exchange was due
wholly to the operations of the Sher-
man law, and they declared that re-
peal was necessary in order TO save the
country. But in London there was q
still greater depreciation in values.
Certainly the effect there was not due
to the operation of the Sherman law.
What, then, was the cause Of the de-
probation in values? The Bankers
Magazine says this: ITO some extent
the appreciation of gold-in other
words, the depreciation OF products rs
compared with gold-has been an
swerable for this decline in the securi-
ties of nll but the richest governments
and corporations; witness the impover-
ishment of Greece, of western Amer
lea, even British India, and other in
debted countries which depend on sales
of produce for the means TO pay twenty
shillings in the pound"
Is not that confession to como from
the hot bed of the single gold standard
growth? The Bankers Magazine
thinks that the increased share of Ia
Dor in the earnings of capital has had
something to do with the process OF de-
probation, and that n third cause was
distrust Of speculative securities
Silver is daily being vindicated
against the monstrous charges that
were preferred against 1t by cunning
enemies during the panic days Of last
year.-Denver Times
