The FaiIin silver.

LONDON, Aug 1.-THE West
minister Gazette attributes the fall
in silver to the inability of speculat-
ors in the United States to carry
silver purchased with borrowed mon
ey and to the scarcity Of buyers. 1t
says that the quantity Of silver lying
idle in the banks in China is large,
there being much less demand for it.
The setback to the trade of both Chi
ma and Japan is due to the smallness
of the purchases Of silver by Ameri-
ca and Europe. What the people are
anxious to know is the amount of sill
yer still carried by spectators in the
United States. The prlce is declin-
ing, and the figures may induce more
active speculation in both London
aud india.

Partys Promises.

Conflict OF Words Between
Senate Leaders.
HoAR DEFENDS NEW ENGLAND

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27 Yesterday was n
day OF Republican humiliation in the sem
ate. Thomas III. Carter. chairman OF the
Republican national committee, delivered
harangue on silver, attempting to show
that his attitude in leading the hold-up OK
the tariff bill in the senate is in strict ac-
cord with his party's promises and tradi-
tons.
Focr members OF the party, said Senator
Carter, including himself, had been pro-
nounced guilty OF treason without trial.
The house tariff bill was not Republican
measure, but WAS measure To meet an
alleged emergency which the chief execu-
tive stoutly asserted did not exist at all.
Continuing, he said:
Recently certain self-constituted censors OF
party motion have been pleased 90 denominate
the Republicans who voted against the bill as
conspirators against the public veal; others
have gone 50 far as To invite them to relieve
the party OF their obnoxious presence.
Mr. Carter then paid his respects to the
Republican senators and representatives
who co operated with the Democratic ad-
ministration 10 bring about the repeal OF
the Sherman silver law, and in speaking
OF the suggestion OF the president that the
grecnbacks should be retired, said:
Again we hear the Republican magpie chat
ter A horde Of presidential aspirants rushed
10 political suicide yelling Sound money!
The press Of New York city leads the process
sion-sound money Is their cry And under
the cover OF this cry the president protected
himself and his administration from just criti-
cism for the most shady and iniquitous trans
action in public finances the world has ever
known referring TO the repeal OF the purchas-
ing clause Of the Sherman actD
II is high time that Republicans who claim
to be within the party should take their cues
from the party PLATFORM rather than from the
White House. II il shall occur that this sense
less crusade against Republicans who believed
in good faith in the Minneapolis platform
when il declared for bimetallism as well as
protection shall be carried TO such an extent
as may result in the adoption OF President
Cleyeland's scheme by the St. Louis conven-
tion. submit that Republican success will be
rendered utterly impossible.
III the platform Of 1895 announces to the
country, in conjunction with the action Of Re-
publicans between the two conventions, that
the plank on bimetallism adopted at Mime
apes was "A delusion, fraud and "a snare, 10
would be just well for the Republican party
not TO make nomination at st. Louis at all.
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1896-02-27

Senator Hoar followed Carter's TRADE
by an address, delivered without notes
and with considerable oratorical fire.
"The senator from Montana" said Mr..
Hoar, charges the eastern Republicans
with falsity TO the platform of 1852. Does
he mean to say that the Interpretation put
upon that platform by Benjamin Harrison
was delusive, fraudulent or misleading?
Does the senator mean to say that IL our
Interpretation is wrong. although accord.
ing To our convictions, we must surrender
to him our honest convictions on true bi-
metallism?"
In commenting upon New Englands
part in achieving the recent Republican
victories, ho referred to Representative
Fitzgerald rs one solitary lone star. Sem
ator Hoar defended the attitude of the
New England senators on the raw wool
question. He is purblind manufactures
who supposes that the American people
will submit TO continue protection on his
industry while denying it to the farmers
and the wool grower Of the great west.
Referring 70 a small states" feature of
Carter's speech. Senator Hoar declared
that he had no mlsglvings concerning the
doctrine OF the equality of states In tho
Union, anu iiitu idNOTtu tHc uuiulttunce TO
statehood of territories having populations
emitting them TO one representative.
Carter followed by saying that there was
much i'm President Harrisons attitude to
give evidences Of n friendliness TO free sill
ver and cited the Sherman act, which
though it did not go far enough, was in
the right direction.
Gear Ua) interrupted by declaring that
Jones (Nev.) and Teller (Colo.) had taken
part in drawing up the platform Of 1899,
and understood 1t as since interpreted.
Senator Hoar declared that there were
no gold monomctnlllsts in the Republican
party in the senate; that they were be.
liovers in true bmetallism, the doctrine
of the constitution, OF Hamilton and of
the Republican party today. He believed
President Cleveland was a gold monomet.
allist.
"Hc is-that is right" shouted Senator
Teller.
Senator Hoar then outlined his intcrpre-
tation of bimetallism, and expressed his
strong opposition TO Cleveands idea.
