BASIL B. GORDON'S LETTER


tor and eN-chairman of the Virginia State
Democratic committee in 1889, when Nc
Kinney defeated Malone for Governor,
is out in letter in the Fredericksburg
Free Lance giving his reasons for sup
porting as voting for Mckinley and Ho-
bart in the coming presidential election.
The following is full text of Gordon's
letter:
Sandy, Rappahannock, county, Va,
Aug 10, 1S96.-Io the Free Lance, Fred
ericksburg, Va: You ask me to give my
reasons for serving the associations Of a
lifetime and voting with the party which
i have always opposed to the best of my,
ability. do not see that my vote can be
a matter of the slightest public interest,
hut il only for your single benefit ! am
glad to answer you / shall vote for Me-
lAinley because he represents the money
standard of every fully civilized nation in /.
the world as against dwindlng handful
OF monaghan and mongrel nations whu
| still cling to the cheaper metal. Those
who wish to dissolve our partnership
with Europe and enter into an Asiatic al
lance, with hoy orator at our head,
| should mt least show cause for so doing.
What are the arguments of the free
silver men? They promise the debtor re-.
lief by enabling him to pay in the new
| silver dollars, and they tell the creditor
in the same breath that the new silver doll
lars will be AS good as gold. What is the.
| first theory but reputation? How is the
latter 10 help the debtor? They favor an
| increase of currency, and yet they will adj
init that gold coin estimated Mt $500, 000,-
600 will be driven from the country, TOR
| Gresham's law is one that cannot be re-
pealed) and they deliberately advocate
striking ont of existence 100000, 600
bank notes. How is this loss to be re-
| placed?
1 1t is the contention of every silver man
that little or no silver will come from
abroad. They are careful to state that
the annual coinage will probably amount
to little more than the annual output of
our own mines or about $4,000, 900 or
| $6O0OO,000 Il year. Moreover, the ca
pacity of onr mint is only about forty or

Trading in stocks to-day represented nothing
beyond the operations Of the professional ele-
ment There were no movements OF the least
significance, and curing the greater part OF
the day intense dulness prevailed with all the
characteristics OF a midsummer market Total
transactions amounted TO only 1O321O shares.
and of this number Sugar Refining, St Paul.
Manhattan. American Tobacco and Burlington
furnished considerably more than one-half.
Prices sagged and closed fractonally lower in
the majority Of stocks the chief exceptions being
Sugar Refining, American Tobacco Cleveland.
Cincinnati, Chicago and st. Louis. General Flee
trio Kansas and Texas preferred and Western
Union. Sugar Refining advanced over i per
cent manipulation. and Consolidated Gas
lost over ! per cent on vigorous talk OF trade
competition, these two stocks being the only
ones in which there were noteworthy changes.
The London market was open again to-day. but
foreign operations were not factor in this
market a little arbtrage house selling in st.
Paul and Louisville and Nashville contributing
the only indications Of operations for the for
eign account. In the general railway list there
was little doing, and. outside OF the railway
stocks already mentioned, there was rail-
way stock in which total dealings ran above
four figures and in the majority trading
confined TO totals OF three figures. United States
Leather weak on the failure Of The Leather
directors to take action on the dividend ques-
ton, and Laclede Gas again reflected the dis
appointment felt the failure of the SUI
preme Court to render any decision in the
Laciede Gas now before 1t. II looks
as though no decision would be rendered at this
term Of the court Call money was lower to-
day. and the weakness in the money markets
makes gold exports probable for some time to
come. Thursdays and Saturdays steamers are
likely to take out considerable Of the metal to
Germany and France. but the demand for re-
mittance Is not urgent as to call for any ex-
cetssively heavy shipments To-days Treasu V

stocks compare with yesterdays as follows:
