GERMANY's ATTITUDE oNsILyER.

Last February 2ll members, a
majority of the German reichstag,
Signed petition for monetary
conference looking toward the in
ternational regulation Of the cur
rency question. AT the same time
Prince Hohenloe said: "It must
be conceded without prejudice to
our national currency that the
growing disparity is value between
the two coin metals is producing
detrimental reaction upon our in
dustrial life"
Said the secretary of the treas
ury of Germany: "It If indubit-
able that the lessened value of sill.
yer has also exercised a di3advan-
tageOus influence upon our internal
manufactures and exports. 1t is
certain that our native mining in
terests are suffering most grievous-
ly from the deprecated value of
silver. The question is IL far
reaching one, from the solution of
which great part of the. agricul-
tural population ofGermany prom
ises itself a benefit"
After two days in council in
March the prussian council of state,
under the craftsmanship of the en-
peror himself, said: IAN exchange
Of views of the cOnfederated COVER
ment with other states has been
proposed concerning common meas
ures for 0bviating the detrimental
reaction recognized to have result
ed to Industrial life from the in
creasing disparity between the
value of gold and silver"
Besides these official statements
agricultural and other Industrial
societies, considering the depressed
condition of trade and low prices
in Germany, have agreed that the
decentralization of silver is the
main cause of the paralysis. 1t is
very natural for students and
especially for thinking working
men, when their interests are put
in jeopardy, to search for the cause.
1t is equally as natural for the In
dustiial classes in England, Ger
many and the United States to
come to the conclusion that such a
universal depression IN trade and
low prices must have Il common
cause. Their Investigation leads
them directly to the conclusion
that the great decline in ices
since the demOnetization of silver
has been intimately connected
with, If not dependent almost en-.
tirely upon, placeing the monetary
systems on a gold basis, thus de-
creasing the volume of primary
money, which alone is the common
dcnominator by which all values
are measure v.
The students Of Germany, theil
statesmen and political ec0nomiste
having To II very great extent come
to this conclusion, naturally they
look for a remedy for the disease
and they are almost unanimous IN
the 0piniOl that the remedy is bi
metallisni or an Increase VI money
of final redemption, and that tht
way to accomplish this il To re
establish the free coinage OF silver
and gold. Thus the Gemans ac

possibilities of that citys being included

far as made, may be accepted as assur-
ance. They seem to be unnecessarily
WORKED up over the situation. They
should know that the com missioners
acting in behalf OF this country and Great
Britain will have no voice in the final
determination of the dispute, as it will
be settled by the high officials of the for
eign affairs offices OF the countries The
mission of the commissioners is to fur
nish data on which these funotionaries
can reach a conclusion, and 1t is with
this end in view that our engineers have
been in the field This summer and last If
our line is accepted juneau will fall
many miles within the American line
Of course, if England's claim as to the To-
cation of the dividing line, running it
through Clarence straits and Bachran
channel and computing the ten marine
leagues specified in the treaty from he
outer shore of the islands along The coast
instead of the mainland. is recognized.
Juneau would propably be in danger of
becoming a British town But do not
see how, in face of the facts, such set
Element can be reached, and do not be-
liveve there is any great danger that the
matter will be determined on this basis.
General Duffield also says that prscti-
cally all the good district OF tbs Yukon
river lies within American territory as
determined nv the work of the American

prospects are good for the United State:
