To the Editor Of the Globe
VIII YOU please state in your next issue tins
exact commercial value Of ten dollars IN golo
coin.
That is, what will a ten dollar gold piece be
worth when beaten into an ingot without de-
creasing it's weight?
If Mr. Durant had included gold in his
questions of today we could have had the
whole truth in one answer Yours truly
John F. Stone.
Pine City, July % 1896.
Probably the reason why Mr.. Durant
did not add to his list of questions that
one propounded by Mr.. Stone is that
he did not hold there was any doubt
about the matter in the mind of any
living human being. The market price
of standard gold, by which is meant
gold nine-tenths fine, or the quality Cf
the metal used for coinage purposes, is
a fraction less than $18.605 per ounce.
A very simple calculation will show
that the value of the bullion in a ten
dollar gold. piece, if pounded into an
ingot, is, as might be expected, ten
dollars. The most important point,
however, and the one to which we call
the especial attention Of everybody in
terested in the financial question, is
that this amount of gold is worth this
amount of money not only at the
United States mint, or at bullion brok
ers in the United States, but at any
point in the entire civilized world.

PLAN OF BANKS
To Protect the Reserve Gold OF the
Treasury.


NEW YORK, July 23-The bankers
present at yesterdays meeting, today
referred all questioners to J. P. Nor
gan. An associate of one OF those pres
ent, said, In speaking OF the result OF
the meeting: 1.-THE report that foreign
bankers have agreed to sell exchange
not to exceed Els 200, coo and have prom
ised not to ship GOLD for two months
is hardly correct. For aign bankers hav-
ing money to remit could not make
such promise, as it would in a way
be for them, in their foreign relations.
practical suspension of payments
We have, however, been assured Of a
supply Of exchange, not to exceed f15,-
000,00 pounds in the next two months
to be provided by a syndicate COM
prising powerful local and interna-
tional interests, at price lower than
the cost of exporting gold to Europe
The details of this agreement have not
yet been arranged and it cannot be
positively stated that the agreement
has been closed. But this is the general
idea on which the bankers will work
The loss entailed by the operation, if
any, will be sustained pro rata by the
members of the syndicate"
In formulating the plan for a foreign
exchange syndicate, it is understood
that the associated banks will substan-
TALLY De party 10 the arrangement,
as provision will be made for them to
supply whatever gold it may be found
necessary to ship without drawing any
from the treasury. This Is to say, if
the exchange pool is compelled, say at
the end of the month, to ship any gold
in order to cover their bills, they will
get the necessary gold from the banks
The report that the pool will sell sixty
day bills was, it is said today, mere
assumption: whether they would sell
sixty-day bills or some other term bills,
was not yet known. They would prob
ably sell all sorts Of bills, but at any
rate, it was said the demand Sor ex-
change would be met by the pool and
no gold would be withdrawn from the
United States treasury by the drawers
of the bills or by the pool.

taking counsel how they may neutral
lie the evil effects of the unfortunate
situation The banks have agreed to
support the treasury to the extent of
their ability; and, as fast as gold Is
taken for export. they deposit more
gold In the treasury to take it's place.
More important even than that, some
of the most powerful financiers have
arranged to exert their influence to
prevent further exports of gold; and
demand and more favorable rate OF
exchange. Banks are to be regarded
as any other business institution;
neither better nor worse. They are
conducted on business principles, and
their greatest self-interest lies in pub
lie prosperity, in the maintenance OF
confidence and in settled conditions of
trade and finance. In the assistance
which they are now giving to the
treasury they are undoubtedly con-
sidering their own good as we'll as the
public safety. But it is little re-
markable that at the very moment
when some thousands of people at st.
Louis are reviling them as the authors
of all evil, they are engaged in apply
ing their own resources to the repair
ing Of the damage which the position
of those people created and threatens
to increase.

SEWAhh rs WELL
THINK HE WILL BE
NAMED.

ST. LOUIS, July 23.-The middle-of-
the-road men were utterly disorganized
and disguised tonight. They held one
of the most stormy of all their stormy
meetings. An attempt was made to
pass boiling resolution, md while it
was being discussed by The hothaads,
the more conservative men seu,ried
out and got leaders who aounseIled
moderate action. These leaders and
others tired the crowd out .fter a
while, and the boiling resolution was
withdrawn The temper of the lead
ers seemed to be that all should re-
main in the convention until the close.
and, IL it's actions were not satisfac-
tory, then hold a convention, nominate
candidates and adopt platform of
their own. The shrewdest leaders say
that not only will the convention nom
mate Bryan, but they believe Sewall
also will be named with him. Late
tonight they were trying to organize.
but their efforts seemed to be futile.

erty with order through sunshine and
through storm since the dawn of the
republic, flung once more bravely to
the breeze. 1t will bring joy and cour-
age and the stern determination to
dare and offer all to duty to tens of
thousands of indomitable Democratic
hearts. About that glorious banner
they who will yield neither to the her
esq of free silver nor the paternalism
of the protection gospel may and will
rally, as the remnants of a scattered
and broken force range themselves
with undaunted courage under the
tattered battle flag, to make the last
desperate venture in behalf of duty
ana or honor. No greater devotion,
no more complete immolation of self
can any party ask of its faithful souls
than that which these men have offered
willingly. And we have no fear either
OF the response or Of the future. The
undying spirit of Democracy will rise
responsive to the call, and the politi-
cal creed that is greater than acct
dents, or mistakes, or the transitory
triumph of error sincerely held, will
come to it's own again, and direct, as
1T alone is fit to do, the destinies of
the nation in whose behalf all that
1T has to offer is too mean a gift. All
honor to the unfiinching Democrats
who have pledged to this cause all
that they have to give. The future
belongs to them, and in this present of
turmoil and danger they will stay the
nal principles of order and the sane
tity of law and the obligations Of
honor, by obedient service to which
alone any nation can hope to endure.
By this act the Democracy indicates
its right to live and it's power to sway
the destinies of the nation in the days
that are to come. These are the times
OF sacrifice, of the sad stern parting
of brothers who have fought together
and loved each other well, of the is
sues that wiring the hearts of men. of
disaster, denunciation and defeat.
Still is every true heart glad Of it,
and host of Democrats will lift their
heads today more proudly to greet the
morn. For again, as Lowell wrote in
his Present Crisis" it is right that is
on the scaffold. "Yet that scaffold
sways the future; and behind the dim
unknown standeth God within the
shadow, keeping watch above his
own"

May Be Turned Into Gold.

To the Editor of the Globe.
In your reply to Wisconsin," concerning
the convertibility of national bank notes, your
facts do not seem to me to justify your con-
cluson:
HE has now legal tender money in his pos
session: and that when presented at the Uni
ted States treasury or subtreasury, is ex-
changeable at par for gold. So, be-
hind this form of money, as behind all others
in the United States today, there stands the
redeeming agent. the gold dollar. &c l o b e,
July 81.
The law appears to me to mean this:
l. National banks may redeem their notes
with any form of legal tender money. This
includes silver coin, which is ultimate money
and not redeemable in anything else.
g. The national banks may redeem their
notes with the coin notes of 1890 which
are legally redeemable in gold or silver, but
as matter of policy only have been redeem
able with gold.
Hence, while the national bank note may
be turned into gold. there is no legal pre-
sumption that IT. shall be. But the note is
good enough, with the law as 1t stands.

INTERNATIONAL BANKERS
Confident They Can Carry Out Their
Plan.

NEW YORK, July 23-The Evening
Post says: The committee of foreign
bankers appointed at the meeting held
at Mr.. Morgan's Office yesterday to
formulate plan for checking the ex-
port of gold during the next two
months is not expected to make a re-
port for two or three days. 1t is the
intention to arrange a pool by which
all demands for exchange may be sup
piled during that time. This morning
there was decline of NC in the posted
rates for sterling exchange. The only
gold that will be shipped on Saturday
will be that for which arrangements
had already been made, and which
could not very well be countermanded.
The amount, however will be much
smaller than it was originally expected
would be shipped. i
]. P. Morgan was asked today wheth-
er a meeting of the committee of in
ternational bankers appointed at yes
terdays meeting would be called to-
day. Mr.. Morgan stated that he con-
sidered 1t inexpedient to advertise the
proceedings of the committee at the
moment, but expressed confidence that
the committee would be abundantly
able to complete the work it had under
taken with success and said that no
news that could properly be given to
the press would be withheld.

TO MEET SILVER MEN.
A Conference Committee Named by
the POpuIists.

1t was 9:43 when Senator Allen con-
cluded. Several Attempts were made to
secure an adjournment, but Senator
Butler, acting as delegate, made a.
motion for the appointment of a com
mittee to confer with the committee
from the silver men. There were MANY
and loud cries of mo-" and Mr.. Branch
Of Georgia, moved to table the motion
The nays seemed to be in large ma
jority, and the motion to table was de-
clared lost. Senator Buffers motion
was carried with a loud chorus of ayes
and great cheering. The Bryan men
were apparently In full control Of the
convention.
A Tennessee delegate offered a reso-
luton declaring that free and unIirnit-
ed coinage was paramount and direct
ing the conferences committee to take
steps to bring it about. The resolution
went to the conference committee. The
committee on rules then made its re-
port. little interest was manifested in
1T, and before the convention had acted
upon it, LATE Pence moved an adjourn
ment until 10 O'Clock tomorrow morn
ing.
A Texas man moved to amend by Az
ing the hour at O'Clock Ma Pence
said he intended to move an adjourn
ment until Is minutes to /, but had
withheld the motion for the present.
And then at 1000 the convention adj
journed. The crowd filed out hurriedly
as everybody was hungry and tired.
The hand played a quickstep. as If TO
hurry the delegates and spectators
through the exits. In q few minutes
the hall was deserted.

WILL THEY EVER UNDERSTAND:

The interview with Mr.. William c.
cheering in it's evidence that there is
at least one man at the East who un-
derstands the situation That man is
not in the Republican party, and he
did not understand it as well a month
ago; else his entry at the Chicago con-
vention and his departure therefrom
would both have been made in differ
ent fashion. 1t is time that the people
OF the Eastern states, secure in their
ancient customs and habits Of
thought, should begin to grasp the
force and meaning of this silver move
ment. 1t is time for them to realize
that the men behind it are not lot
or fools and knaves; that the silver
propaganda as it is pushed today is
not lunacy," but a mass of sophis-
tries, so plausibly put together that it
might well deceive any man who had
not wide acquaintance with history
and pretty thorough economic edu-
cation. 1t is time, above all, for them
to actually comprehend that these
men mean to carry the coming cleo
ton; and that whether they are able to
do so or not depends not on any SUPER
cilious attitude or any party dogma
but upon the amount of popular edu-
cation in finance that can be given To
the masses of the people within the
next four months
The Republican party, as Mr.. Whit
ney points out, has failed utterly to
grasp the situation. 1t would not real
ize that this is an issue which tran
sends all party bounds; upon which
the voters on both sides refuse abso-
lutely to be submissive to party dicta
ton; and upon which the citizens Of
the republic should divide without ref
erence to past affiliations BY it's con-
tinued denunciation of Democratic
policies, its false statements of their
intention and effects, and it's deter
mined purpose to keep the tariff at the
front when nobody has a thought for
anything but the financial question. It
has already given the free silver peo-
pie big advantage. This Is especial
ly noticeable in it's own ranks. The
Republican detection is great. and it
will grow alarming unless the party
changes quickly to a rational position
Of attack and defence Its utterances.
as much as anything else, and espe-
cially the course of Mr.. MCKINLEY

these blunders, in which the delegates
to the Chicago convention also had
their share, to continue? Or are we
to have the ranks closed up for a
straight and winning fight in favor of

and the maintenance of our position

HELPING THE TREASURY.

1t is the fashion just now to de-
nounce wall street and the hanks of
the country as agents of misfortune
and of evil. Yet it happens that, while
political conventions are engaged in
this work, the banks of the metropo-
lis are coming to the rescue of the
treasury from the renewed difficulties
into which 1t has been plunged by the
threat of further disturbances of our
monetary system. Within the week
the run upon the gold reserve was re-
sumed; and the prospect was that,
by the operation of the wretched
endless chain" of the greenbacks, the
treasury's gold would shortly be ex-
hausted again and a further bond is
sue be made necessary in order to
maintain the monetary standard and
preserve the parity of our different
forms of currency. The active agi-
tation Of the free coinage proposition
has stimulated the desire to withdraw
and hoard gold; and if the great
financial institutions of the country
saw fit to assist in the movement, and
to take out gold on which they would
realize a handsome premium If the
silver people should be successful, the
reserve would not last a week
Instead Of this we find these people
