COINAGE OF SILVER.
De Wits Bill Endorsed by a
New Yorker-What it Pro-
vides For.

Washington, Feb. 12.-Some
time ago a congressman from
Ohio by the name of Dewitt
introduced a bill providing for
the free and unlimited coinage
of silver in a way that must as
tonish the advocates of the
white metal. The bill, boiled
down, provides that the owner
of silver bullion can get his
silver coined into dollars, but
the government in payment
will only give to the owner the
market price and retain for it
self the difference between that
and the free value of the dollar
coins. In other words, the mar
ket value of enough silver to
make dollar is something
like 80 cents. The owner of the
bullion would he given this
amount for enough money in

wellDigh certain that no bill
authorizing the guarantee Of
bonds TO be issued by the pre-
sent Canal Company can be. !
come a law.
The anti prize fighting bill,
putting a heavy penalty upon
those who engage in fistic con-
tests for money in any of the
territories or in the District of
Columbia, gave the country an
excellent idea of how easily
and how quickly Congress can
act when so disposed. This bill
went through the House and
Senate without a dissenting
vote and was promptly signed
by the President all within
forty eight hours.
The results of The bidding
for those bonds are in the main
satisfactory to the administra-
ton, but there are good reasons
for the belief that President
Cleveland and Secretary Car
Isle very reluctantly awarded
any portion Of the bonds to the
Morgan syndicate; but, mas
much as the subscriptions in
excess Of thessbid of that syndi-
cate only took about two thirds
of the issue, there was nothing
else that could he fairly done
but TO award the others to that
syndicate. Although more than
three fourths of The bonds have
been awarded 10 New York bid
ders that does not mean that so
large percentage of the bonds
as that will go there. Bidders
from all sections of the country
forwarded their bids through
their financial correspondents
in New York. Wherever they
go and whatever becomes oil
them it is hoped that these will
be the last bonds ever issued
by the U. S. in a time of peace

A RoENTGEN
SHADOGRAPF.

Chicago, H., Feb. 12.-The
first practical experiment in
Chicago with Roentgen's rays
was made yesterday by Elec-
trician Charles E. Scruzer and
DR.. Jas. Bury in the laboratory
of the Western Electric Com
pany.
Casper Schmidt came to the
office of the Western Electric
Company, complaining of a
sore spot in the region of the
palm of the hand two years
ago, but was unable to locate
the affected part.
Accordingly Schmidt was
conducted To- the Roentgen
quarters and after an hours
exposure to the cathode rays
the sensitized plate upon which
rested the afflicted member,
was taken to the Photographic
room. When developed the
plate disclosed a most excellent
likeness of the anatomy of the
hand, and also what appeared
to be a bucksbot snugly en-
sconced between the metacarpel
bones of the third and fourth
fingers about an inch and a half
below the knuckle. A silver
print will he made from the
negative and the buckshot will
then be removed by DR.. Bury,
using the Photographic plate or
shadograph as guide.

silver to make a dollar. The
remainder, which is known as
the seigniorage, would be re-
retained by the government to
keep the parity between the
two metals, silver and gold.
Just what would happen to sill
yer if the government had to
sell its silver retained as seign-
forage to keep up this parity is
not yet discussed, but there is
an idea that it would knock the
bottom out Of the silver bust
ness as a business. However,
the bill of De Witt has attract
ed the attention Of some of the
financiers in New York, and he
is much delighted to day by
the receipt of a letter from Mr..
Benedict of that city in which
he says that it is the first bill
yet introduced in congress
which opens up light which
may show the way to the set
