MckinIey's Election n Triumph for
international BimetnIiism.

luNtFhatohhi blmetuilisms
LONDON. Nov. 9.--The Vienna correspond
ent Of the Times says. Prof suesse. the
greatest OF European authorities on currency
questions, writes a letter to the Neucs
Wiener Tageblatt, entitled "A Word Of
Warning 70 Europes Diplomacy" Prof.
Suesse agrees with the English Bimetallic
league that Mr.. Mckinley's election involves
a triumph for international bimetallism over
national bimetRllism but he regards Mr.
Bryan's defeat as fortunate for the United
States and for the intercourse OF the world
in general Free silver he thinks would
have driven all gold out OF America and
the introduction Of an exclusively silver cur
rency in the United States would have been
inevitable FOR an indefinite period. This
would have divided the world into two
camps, one the great silver field, compris-
Ing the whole OF America and the whole Of
Asia and the other the gold area including
Europe. portions OF Africa and Australia.
Prof. Suesse SAYS that IL Is puerile to con-
slider such questions In the light OF gains
and losses OF mine owners and that IL is
equally puerile to consider that the election
has solved the silver question, either for
America or for the rest Of the world. Re
cent events. on the contrary he thinks. have
proved the existence OF a general feeling
that the injustice by which creditors benefit
and which proceeds from the existing condi-
tions OF coinage is even assuming larger
The bimetallic movement in Europe is
extending says Prof. Suesse Gold coin
age has twice brought us in recent years
to the verge OF universal crisis. First, seven
years ago. while gold production was stag
nant till the discovery OF South African
gold. and. second the Bryan agitation"
Prof. Suesse concludes with the expression
OF his opinion that Europe's hailing Mr. Nc
kinley, whose tariff SO injured foreign in
terests. is not very diTnifed and that they
should rather earnestly consider whether it
is not their duty 10 relieve the world Of
state OF affairs so full OF danger.
An editorial in the Times based on
dispatch from New York, warns Europe not
to expect Mr. Mckinley to allow his pro
tectionist views TO fan in allegiance but IL
considers that the passage OF a new tariff
bill is uncertain and remote and thinks
there is likely enough TO be renewed at
tempts on the part OF the United S,utCs
government 10 push forward d scheme Of
international bimetallism because" says
the Times. lit is obviously Americas in
terest TO do something for silver"
The Times also SAYS, with reference 10 the
assertions Of Prof. SuessC. Prof. Suessc's
assumptions about the injustice Of the main
tenRnce OF the gold standard have already
been refuted MANY times"

CANADA FRIENDLY TO AMERICA

NEW YORK. Nov. s.--The- Morning Ad-
