Washington, Feb. II. - Chandler's
speech in the senate yesterday in ad-
vocacy Of bimetallism was one Of the
notable efforts of the present session,
not only for the scholarly care with
which the senator presented the ques-
ton from his standpoint. but for the
bitter sarcasm addressed to Palmer and
the Indianapolis convention, the arraign-
ment of silver Republicans who bolted
the st. Louis convention, and the dra-
matte personal exchange between Chand-
Ter and Pettigrew. the latter being one
Of the boilers from the st. Louis con-
hours, and was replete with incident.
1t was an argument against q single
standard of either metal, gold or sill
yer, and a warning against q policy Of
monometailism. Then the senator turned
to the political phases. of the question,
speaking in turn of Bryan, Palmer and
Mckinley. Palmer sat across the aisle,
and was frequently addressed by the
speaker as one who had contributed to

the senator arguing against a single
standard of either metal, silver or gold.
He traced the gradual demonetization
of silver, the closing of our mints
against the silver dollar in '73, the ef-
forts to restore silver and the serious
blow struck by England against silver
in closing the Indian mints. But it re-
manned for Secretary Carlisle, the SEN
ator declared, to strike the most fatal
blow at silver in issuing his order that
the government would redeem it's paper
obligations in gold only. By that act
Secretary Carlisle struck out Of use
a vast amount of silver and drew on the
depleted worlds supply of gold and gave
the final blow to silver. From the ef-
fects of this low depth to which it had
been reduced by the decentralization OF
silver bimetalliSm must now begin its
toilsome struggle upward.
Has Fun with Senator Palmer.
Chandler said silver monometallism
had led to the defeat of Bryan. The
other element of the Democratic party
had selected Palmer and Buckner on
a single gold standard platform. 1t had
resulted in giving to these estimable
candidates 10000 votes in a total OF
| IA, 100000. votes. Nevertheless, said
Chandler. the assistance of these old
fashioned gentlemen in the election OF
Mckinley was in a worthy cause. Pal.
mer remained in his seat across the
aisle. smiling occasionally at Chambers

House Coinage Committee Has Arrived st
NO Conclusion.
Washington, Feb. 1.-THE interest in
the senate bill for an international mon-
etary conference deepens as the discus
sion before the house committee on
coinage continues. Half a dozen men,
bers of the house were on hand to speak
on the measure yesterday. Those who
desire to see il reported, who include the
free silver members of the committee.
fear it may be talked to death before
the session ends. Quigg of New York
announced that several New York men
desired to be heard on the bill before
the vote wass taken and desired post
ponement.
Wouldn't you like 10 see it postponed
until the 5th of MarchS' asked Hilborn
of California Quigg admitted that he
would he pleased at such q aresult. Then
you are not in faovr of carrying out the
Republican PLATFORM" Hilborn said.
Il merely doubt the expediency Of
passing this bill at this time" replied
Quigg, and added that the New York
congressional delegation was practically
unanimous in opposition to the bill.
Fowler of New Jersey, OF the banking
committee, continued his speech against
bimetaliism. he said that the agitation
of the conference idea might disastrous
ly affect the operation of the new tariff
bill which the Republican party expect
ed to pass. If the conference had any
result it would have a tendency to raise
prices 1t would inevitably create un-
certainty while the conferrees sat about
debating. and meantime investors would
withhold their money from investment
until they knew what decision, IL any,
| the conference reached. If it made any
agreement they would continue to
| withhold thei.. money until the agree
ment had gone into effect ard its re-
| suits became known. Mckinley might
| find some less disturbing way than a
| conference to achieve results. Yet II
| this bill was passed Mckinley would
| think that the will expressed by the rep
| resentatives Of the people was some
thing to be regarded and the bill would
| hamper him.
McRae of arkansas, speaking for the
Democratic members of the committee,
! said that If the policy advocated by
| the Republicans who had spoken was
pursued the Democrats would be en-
tirely content, and IL the Interpretation
of the platform indicated was made the
Democrats would be content. They had
no desire to hamper the majority in any
| attempt to carry out its principles.
Mitchell Of New York urged that action
be postponed until President Mckinley
could indicate the definite policy which
he undoubtedly had under considera-
ton.
Quigg and Brewster Of New York an
nounced that some of the largest mon
ey-lenders in the country desired to ap-
pear against the bill. Towne said 1t
might as well be put in the minutes that
every large money-lender in the United
States was opposed to a conference. and
that the agitation would never cease
until the question was finally settled, so
that the sooner it was settled the better.
