BISMARCK ON SILVER.
Says Independent Action by United
States is What is Wanted

Dallas. Tex, Sept. 21-In a speech
here Saturday Governor Culberson read
the following significant correspond
ence between himself and Prince Bis
marck on the money question:
Prince Bismarck: Sir-The great
question of finance is now of supreme
interest to the people of the United
States. It is presented in various forms,
but in a general way, IL may be said 10
be. first, whether the United States
shall adopt the single gold standard, or
second. whether they shall adopt BIZ
metalIisn, with gold and silver as the
primary money. The argument in IA
vor of each is well known to you but
it is purely insisted that we should
adopt the policy of the bimetallism be
cause the supply of gold in the world
for coinage is insufficient to meet the
demand, and because such standard
Will still further depress the value OF
all property.
Which, in your judgment, IS the
best policy to adopt. the gold standard
or bimetaIlisn, giving your reasons?
What effect, in your judgment. viii
the immediate adoption OF bimetaIlism
by the United States have on the cause
of bimetallism in Germany and other
great commercial nations.
(Stgned) &C. CULBERSON.,
Governor of Texas"
INDEPENDENT ACTION RIGHT.
In reply Prince Bismarck said:
FFiedrichsruhe. Aug. q.
''Honored Sir:-Your esteemed favor
has been duly received. I hold that
this is the very hour that would be
advisable to bring about between the
nations chiefly engaged in the worlds
commerce a mutual agreement in IA
vor of the establishment of bimetaIlisrn.
The United States are freer by far in
their movements than any nation of
Europe, and hence if the people OF the
United States should find il compatible
with their interests TO take independent
action in the direction of bimetauism,
I cannot but believe that such action
would exert a most salutary influence
upon the contamination of an interna-
tfonaI agreement

FOR MEN.

Men are pleased at the return OF the
shepherds plaid, as it suits most of them.
Englishmen have always liked it, and
trousers of it are effective.
One reason Americans should be cautious
about wearing plaids is because they are,
as nation. comparatively slight, at least
Vogues authority thinks so.
The long walklng-coats of rough mate
rial, which are so generally worn, are not
at all suitable excepting for very tall men.
AS the season advances there is a
tendency shown to order grays in small
checks.
l expected to shudder over the vivid
pink shirts which are to be fashionable,
but am quite an admirer of some to be
had at one of our haberdashers; but those
of bright green or sulphurous hues will
never excite my enthusiasm. However.
fads are the order Of the day and to be
a faddist is quite interesting, but safety only
lies in conservatism. As yet the latest
styles have not arrived even in New York,
so we must possess our souls with patience
and give no unnecessary orders until the
styles are more settled.
The question has again come up in a
leading New York journal as to whether,
when a man is making call, he should
remove his top coat before entering the
The San Francisco call., 1896-03-15

drawing-room or remain with it on with
out until asked to do so. The answer is
good, so give it for thebenett of many
readers.
What one should do depends upon cir
cumstances. There are many kinds ofv1s1ts
that man can make at private house
He could call in the morning, that is to
say, before noon, which is the usual hour
that women of affairs discuss their affairs
and have their business transactions. in
which case he goes strictly on business,
and is not supposed to be calling. He
would then leave with the servant his
outer coat, for example, a heavy storm
coat or overshoes, but he would enter the
drawing-room, or whatever room is
used as reception-room. as if he came on
business, and not as if he were making
personal call. He would therefore take
into the room his hat his stick and his
gloves, and if he is wearing a light top
coat he would keep that, but if he is wear
ing heavy storm coat and is wet. or his
overshoes are wet, or there is anything In
his dress that, If carried into the reception
room, would look as if he were bringing
the weather in with him, he would leave
them with the servant. This covers the
question of business calls.
If he is making a formal call as one of
| the friends of the household, whether he
removes his top coat or not or whether he
| CdTTleS Ills udb dIQ SIiCh dHu SiONSS Will
him or not depends upon whether he is ex-
| pected or not.
| If he has been invited or comes by ap.
pointment for purely social visit, and is
! quite intimate with the people. he would
| leave his hat and stick and gloves with the
! servant.
If he is making call and is not ex-
pected he would take his hat, gloves and
stick with him.
The safe side is always the conservative
side and a man is always less likely to
make an error of good form if he takes his
| hat, gloves and stick with him.
Foreigners are much more accustomed
to taking their hat, gloves and stick into a
drawing when making calls than are
| Americans.
| The bachelors OF the Knickerbocker Club
| in New York gave brilliant dance at the
Waldorf on the 10th of this month, that
being mi-careme, and brilliant affair it
was.
Herman Oelrichs is to be congratulated
by having secured the Paran Stevens
house, which is of suitable size to suit his
hospitable disposition.
Now that it is positively asserted that
Scotch whisky will not bloat it is correct to
drink it with soda and now champagne
