His main purpose, said Secretary Car

replied with an explanation of the
great emergency existing whic h would
not permit a delay for the usual for

apprehension in financial circles as to
the situation, heightened by visit of

SILVER COINAGE.

Tn, Superintendent of the Philadelphia
Mint Gives His Views n Live Subject.
WASHINGTON, June 16.-Maj. Her.
MAJ Kretz, superintendent of the
Philadelphia mint, is in Washington.
Speaking on the subject of silver coin
age Mr.. Kretz said: 'Since February
last the aggregate coinage at all the
minis of silver dollars has been about
81, $40, 600 a month. ALI this silver was
coi1 ed to take the place of Sherman
certificates and was not additional to
the volume of currency. The mints
are now unable to supply the demands
for small coin, both silver and copper.
In my judgment the free coinage of
silver would result in financial dis
aster. There is another problem about
it, too, which does not seem to be con-
sidefed. Should free coinage law be
enacted we would have to equip about
q dozen new minis Our present facil-
tiles would not be adequate to coin the

into their places. The arrival of the
notables, however, was not attended
by any demonstrations. The most
famous of the republican. leaders
seemed to be unrecognized from the
galleries, but were warmly welcomed
by their friends on the floor.
The hands of the clock were at 1920
when Chairman Carter, of Montana,
unwaistcoated and with sea of shirt
bosom, stepped forward and gave three
sharp raps with a gavel made from a
piece of oak in the first legislative hall
of the state of Missouri. Then there
was an interval of comparative quiet,
while Mr.. Carter made some direction
about the seats and then announced
the prayer by Rabbi Sale. The thou
sands struggled to their feet when
they caught the significance of the
rabbits outstretched hands and stood
with bowed heads.
AS the invocation ceased a faint ap-
plause rippled over the vast audience,
which was promptly checked by Chair
man Carter. who, after considerable eff
fort with his gavel, managed to secure
a semblance of order. He then for
mally announced that the convention
met in pursuance of the call of the ma.
tional committee and Secretary Man

colleagues of the committee, who sat
ranged behind him to the front of the
platform, where he read the call
The first real demonstration of the
convention came when Chairman Carter
introduced Charles w. Fairbanks, of
Indiana, as the temporary presiding
officer. William S. Sutherland, of the
New York delegation, seconded Mr..
Fairbanks nomination, and his selec-

voice of the delegates. As Mr.. Fair

speech, a wave of applause ran around
the galleries, inlerspersed with stac-

credit in constant peril Our foreign credit Is
impaired and domestic capital feels insecure.
The bill struck down reciprocity, one Of the
highest achievements in American statesman
ship. No measure was ever enacted which
more directly advanced the interests Of the
American farmers and manufacturers than
reciprocity. With its destruction fell advan-
