INDIA AND SILVER.


CNicuttn PREDECESSOR Thinks Bryan
VIII Finally Triumph.
New York. October 2.-Professor A. S.
Chosh of the Calcutta university, a native
East Indian, SETS forth in an article en-
titled "Indias Case for Silver" in the
October number of the North American
Review, the reasons why the people Of
India desire the reopening of the Indian
mlnts.
Professor Chosh arfaigns the British gov
eminent for blocking the way to an inter-
national agreement for the reconciliation
of silver, charging that by closing the In
dian minis 1t has eoniiscated one half of
the wealth of the Indian empire. He ex-
presses the opinion that England may be
forced, out of regard to her own interests,
to change her course, and he concludes as
follows:
III, however. notwithstanding every en-.
treaty, she proves false to her own and
the worlds interest. then she may learn to
her cost that other nations can act with
out her and she may see the very thing
come to pass in retribution which she has
SO long opposed. II she still continues to
block the way. If Senator Wolcotts mis-
sion rails and the Indian minis remain
unopened, then the last hope of India
must lie in Mr.. Bryan. If three years
hence his efforts are crowned with sue
cess which necessarily they must be if
nothing Is done meanwhile to solve the
great question, he will perhaps find the
gold worshippers OF Europe, headed NV
England. waiting in trepidation In his
ante chamber to entreat an international
agreement. That will be the hour of his
triumph, and in the anticipation of 1t the
three hundred millions of India will wish
MIN God speed with all the power NJ thair
stricken hearts" ''''
