LONDON, July 27.-The Daily News has
an interview with Mr.. Joseph Herbert
Triton, banker of the firm of Barclay,
Bevan. Triton, Ransom, Bouverie &
Company, in which he is quoted as say
ing:
Passage of a free-silver bill would
cause rise in prices, and would glut
America with silver from the Eastern
countries, causing complete dislocation
of the entire basis of exchange between
East and West. 1t would also cause tie
boarding and disappearance of gold
from circulation. Gold would go to
premium. There would be disappear
ance of foreign capital, causing severe
panic and general commercial ruin.
"The first cure for American financial
distress must be the contraction of their
paper issnes, both bank notes and treas
ury issues. If Mr.. Bryan wins, inter-
national bimetalists will see an oppor-
tunity. But it is very doubtful if they
will be able to seize it. The history of
the Latin Union has conclusively shown
that any international bimetallic union
must collapse through its own weight"

In speaking of Bryan's nomination, he
says there were so many men at St.

who hoped for Democratic Endorsements

swept the convention to Bryan. He
adds that Bryan is talking too much and
