views of their own. In this matter the
Senate is not obliged to await action by
the House. 1t may, IL 1t choose, take the
initiative
But, as The Star stated some time ago,
there will probably be no obstructive clash
between the two houses of Congress with
regard to the currency. The republicans
are in majority in both houses, and are
committed by express promise to give the
subject attention. The President favors
action and will recommend 1t. The country
expects action. There are a variety of
opinions as to what should be done. This,
however, entails only the everyday neces-
sity of intelligent compromise. Nobody
will get-nobody ever does get in such con-
tests-precisely what he wants. But If the
business is well handled the result ought to

view of the dangers of reckless campaign
ing and the advantages of greater delibera-
ton in the adjustment of international diff
ferences. The American delegates pro-
posed that the conference should consider
the state Of private property at sea in time
of war. recommending its immunity. The
conference has voted not to consider the
matter. Thus the case stands.
As Ambassador White said yesterday in
his speech before the conference, the ques-
ton of what constitutes contraband of war
is in a very unsatisfactory state of determi-
nation There is no international agree
ment defining the limits of legitimate COM
merce during a campaign. At the same
time the dangers to commerce are immeas-
urably greater than ever before owing to
the vast increase in its bulk and to the re-
markable advance in the naval war power.
clear determination of the matter was
never so imperative. 1t is surprising to find
England holding back. Her commerce on
the seas is tremendous, her chances of be-
ing involved in foreign wars are greater
than in the case of almost any other ma
ton.
1t Is Of course to be hoped that an agree
ment may in season be reached upon this
most important subject 1t would be far
more satisfactory to secure a general rule,
subscribed to by all the maritime powers.
than to rely upon individual treaties. The
latter plan would involve the chance of es-
tablishing variable standards. whereas the
advantage of an agreement such as the
American delegates hoped to foster by
means of an affirmative vote by the pres
ent conference would establish a single
basis and greatly simplify the responsible
ties of the respective powers.
Whatever the outcome of the proposition
and Its discussion may be. the American
record Is maintained of keeping to the
front in the suggestion and advocacy of
broad and progressive principles of inter-
national action. What the republic seeks
in this matter will undoubtedly be a part
of international law some day.

MIR. Bryan Asserts Himself.

In his Atlanta speech Tuesday night Mr.
Bryan replied to those democrats who are
figuring on a new platform for next year.
Not all of them are against MIN. Some of
them hold this attitude toward him:
You want to be President, and it would
give US pleasure to see you in the White
House. But it is plain enough that unless
the party subordinates silver success is out
of the question next year. You cannot
arouse the interest in the subject that you
did in 1896. The conditions will make that
impossible. Come now. Business is bust
ness. Don't stand so pat on that old
hand. Discard silver. and go to the deck
for something fresh, and We'll renomnate
you and win
To this Mr.. Bryan makes, in substance,
this reply:
Gentlemen, l am not as anxious to be
President as you seem to think l am not
figuring as much on personal success as on
success for the principles 1 cherish. And
these principles are. as well, the principles
of the democratic party. In my judgment
silver is still the issue. 1t cannot be sub
ordinated. But, if the party decides upon
the foolish attempt. it must choose an
other leader. l am not your man on the
terms you propose"
mis- sounds pretty cocky and Independent
fer everyday politics. The ordinary idea is
that a politician is willing to accept a pres
idential nomination on nearly any plat
form his friends are disposed to write. But
Mr. Bryan may mean precisely what he
says. He is probably not the eager and
easily excited asprant that he was three
years ago. He has had one nomination,
and such attention since has rarely been
bestowed on a defeated candidate. He is
not to be approached therefore as one with.
out experience. Then he is no longer the
Workaday journalist and lecturer dependent
on modest earnings for his living. He has
had three years of deserved prosperity and
is in comfortable financial circum-
stances He is famous, in measure rich
and but trifie over forty years of age
Why should he not be cocky and indepe.id-
ent? Why should he permit a lot of schem-
ing politicians to put ring in his nose and
lead him their way?

From the New York World.
The spring reports of the national banks
Tor this year show that they had more
money lent out in April than eleven months
before by $3O6,0oOO00 That is to say, the
industries Of the country are so far more
active this year than last that their di-
rectors are using S3oG 900 900 more money
borrowed from the national banks.
But the national banks do only a part of
the country's banking business There are
also the state banks, the great private
banks and the trust companies, whose loans
for industrial uses have increased in like
proportion.
Without exact statistics from them it is
perfectly safe to say that the merchants
ana manufacturers of this country, the men
who pay wages and keep the wheels going
round, are borrowing and using at a profit
between one-half and three-quarters of a
