MASSACHUSETTS REFORM CLUB
Discusses ..Fiat Money and It's Effects
The Presidents Bond Sale Endorsed.

Boston, Feb Is Fiat Money and Its
Effects was the subject discussed by the
Massachusetts Reform Club at Young's,
this evening. Horace White, editor OF
the New York Evening Post, was the first
speaker. He urged strong battle for
sound money: called upon the members
Of the club to see that no man was noml-
mated for President or Vice President
who wavered on this question.
He warmly praised President Cleye-
lands action in negotiating the new loan
and causing the fact to be known, other
wise specie payment would have been
suspended two weeks ago. Abiding to
the outcry that the loan will yield too
large profit to those who have taken it,
he asked where were the men who would
have taken it for less, ana until the Presi-
dents accusers are prepared to show
where the government could have OBJ
tanned the gold on BETTER terms, they
had better keep their mouths shut.
Henry w. Peabody, of Kidder, Peabody
& Co., Boston, bankers, made strong
argument for gold monometallism. He
was followed by Albert l.. Ripley, presi-
dent of the Hide and Leather National
Bank, Boston. John f. Burt of the Old
Colony Trust Company, outlined plan
by which the United States shall issue
credit notes redeemable at national
banks, and the present issue Of green
backs be withdrawn. Speeches were
made by other members Of the club on
the various addresses of the evening.
