Seyd visited the United States ana brought

letter showed that he opposed these meas

Mr. Harvcy-The report of the monetary
conference at Paris in 1851 will contradict
the history that MIR. Horr has read from.
AS to Ernest Seyd and letter found

Seyd died. IL reminds me of this: suppose
In the years to come one would say that
John G.. Carlisle is bimetallist and in proof
of il read from Mr.. Carlisle's speech the
den onetization of silver is the greatest
crime of tho ages and Its consequences
for evil are greater than all the foods
and fires AID pestienccs of the past"
Would that prove that MIR. Carlisle was a
bmetalst at a particular time when some
thing might be charged against him when
he acted as secretary of the treasury under
Mr.. Cleveland? If that Seyd letter. d'sen-
tcmbed by the st. Louis friends and family
of Mr.. Hooper, was to prove anything it
he said that he TAD submitted that bill to
distinguished experts ard they hal all
agreed it the proper thing to do,
In reviewing the history of the bill in
the serate where it was called up by Mr..
Sherman, he said:
1T is evident that il the
intention of Senator Sherman to
convince the senate that no CAREFUL consid-
Grafton of the bill was necessary and in
this he succeeded. as appears from some
thing Senator Casserly said during a dis
cussion by him about abrasion. 1t
is this: | viii not contest it with him

senators are paying attention to this sub

Horr Gets the Laugh.
Mr.. Horr-A provision has been intro

franc piece in use in France doubt
about it. The senate struck that provision

Mr.. Horr-I have not the record. The

Mr.. Horn And did not that take the place
of the other dollar?
