This table showed, liorr declared, that

here; that the sessions arc attended by
but few people, etc. The fact is that the
sessions can be attended by but few, rs
there is room for not more than 100 In the
hall where the sessions are held. 1t is also
n fact that the interest is great, not only
in the city bus all over the country The
attendance is limited to those invited,
and Invitations are rarely neglected. All
the papers hero print the debates in some

vcy had said that tho debt OF the United
States amounted to forty bullion dollars;
that was an abSurdlty rho statement of
the amount o. interest which the UAltCd
States paid annually Europe was also
untrue. Harvey said the amount of sill
yer referred to was tho amount available
for coinage. R'turnlng To his argument
on bl.mctaNlsm harvey said that tho
option of tho debtor to pay IA a cheaper
metal should not be inquired. This
would always maintain parity. Ii tho
creditor were given option of money IN
which lie .Ioutd be paid he would de-
mand dearCr money, thereby increasing
demand for that metal and decreasing

narrowing the disparity
