1t May Have Important Bearing on
Financial Question


Financial Question.
WASHINGTON, Jan. "a record and
brief have been received by the clerk of
the supreme court of the United States
In case from the supreme court of
Michigan that may have bearing on the
financial question. 1t Is the case Of Baker
VS.. Baldwin, in which F. A. Baker, a
Michigan lawyer, seeks to test the consti-
nationality of the provisions of the Bland
Allison act, making the silver dollar of
311.25 grains of pure silver full and ur-
limited legal tender in the payment of all
debts, public or private. Mr.. Baker
claims that the act of 1873, establishing
the gold dollar Of 1922 grains of pure gold
as the standard of value Is the only val
Id act In existence making coinage money
a full legal tender, and that all contracts
since entered into. payable in money
without stipulation as to the kind of
money, can be measured only In gold
dollars or in United States notes resem-
bling gold. He claimed that the Bland
Allison act is unconstitutional because
the bullion silver dollar at the passage
OF that act, and ever since, has been less
than the value of the gold dollar, and
that congresses has no right under the
power to coin money to authorize a de-
based coin.
Mr.. Baker Is an advocate of silver, and
In 1895 was chairman of the Democratic
state central committee of Michigan, but
he believes that the new standard of
value which would result from the resto-
ration Of bimetallism should be adopted
for future contracts only, and that all
existing public and private debts con-
tracted since 1873 should be paid In gold,
unless the contract specifically provides
for the payment of some other kind Of
money
