WILL FIGHT FOR SILVER.
DEMOCRATS WILL OPPOSE THE
NEW CURRENCY BILL

They Give Their Reasons Tor OPP
posing the F'InaI step in the De-
monetiEatioa of siIver-Ten Why
the Bill Authorizing Treasury to
Exchange Cold for silver Dollars
VIII Add to the Burdens of the
Treasury and InJure the Business
of the Country.
Washington. Jan. 1s.-The Demo-
cratic members Of the House Commit
tee on Coinage, Weights and Measures
have agreed on a minority report on
the bill. directing the Secretary Of the
Treasury ito exchange gold for legal
tender silver dollars" and the report
will be presented to the House to-
morrow BIZ Mr.. shafroth.
The report takes the position that
the passage Of the bill is certain TO
produce financial disturbances. The
following proposition is laid down:
"Our government has never conceded
the right 10 the f10ider Of silver dol
lars to demand from the treasury gold
therefor. nor TO the holder Of gold to
demand silver dollars therefor. Such
demands always have been refused by
the treasury. II i the notes and bonds
Of the government that are payable
in either gold or silver at the option Of
the holder"
The following reasons why such
measure should not be enacted, are
given:
First. 1t will require a large increase
Of the gold reserve Of the treasury as
II the obligations upon reserve are
increased the reserve should be cor
respondlngIy enlarged.
Second. it Will create new endless
chain upon the gold reserve Of the
treasury and thereby plunge the gov
eminent deeper into the banking BUSH
ness
The government now has the power
to call an absolute halt to raid upon
its gold reserve by impounding the
greenbacks and treasury notes, but II
silver is made redeemable in gold it
cannot do so until 1t impounds also
the $3.50. 100000 of silver dollars and
certificates. The bill will plunge the
government deeper into the banking
business
Third, it will facilitate the exporta-
tion Of gold.
With other nations imposing restric-
tons upon their expectation Of gold.
and We facilits ting our expectation Of
the same. We are likely to lose great
quantities OF that ufe-blood Of COM
merce.
Fourth II viii cause the retirement
OF the silver dollars and produce either
violent contraction Of the currency or
the substitution Of printed promises to
ray It VIII convert assets into liabiIi-
ties. dollars into debts.
Fifth. Other things remaining as
they are, such a measure would cause
a fail in prices of all commodities, and
other property. Falling prices produce
bankruptcy and panics.
No nation on the face Of the globe
requires its eNchequer to exchange gold
for silver. This is a new policy in the
treatment CT the precious metals. why
should this, the greatest silver pro-
ducing nation in the world, be the
first 10 strike a blow at one Of it's
great Industries. An representatives,
regardless Of political affiliations.
should condemn such reckless 4egisla-
lion.

RAILWAY TELEPHONE SYSTEM.
Illinois Central to Substitute TeIe-
phone for Telegraph.

phone for Telegraph.
Chicago. ILL.,, Jan. 19.-The Illinois
Central Railroad within a short time
viii have all principal stations along
it's line equipped with telephones for
the use of officials and employees in
transmitting the orders and messages
Of the company.
Those who have experimental with
the system claim for it many advan-
tages over the old telegraph system.
They assert that by means of the tele-
phonic system the service will be prac
tically revolutionized; that with slight
improvements, which are inevitable,
the telephone will furnish greater safe
ty for train orders, that the cost of
train operation will be decreased and
the results obtained made vastly better,
and that no less important is the con-
slant personal contact between officials
and employees, which the promoters say
is certain to result in a higher class OF
service. The installation of the sys-
TEN will cost about 800 per mile or
approximately $40 900 TO equip the en-
tire road, including it's main branches
and the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley
road

SOUTH AMERICAN NAVIGATION.
Gen. Reyes says the Amazon and the
Platte Systems Can BE Connected.


Mexico City. Jan. Is-Though the
arbitration question in the Pan-Amer-
lean Conference is supposed 10 have
been disposed OF. there is some pros
pect Of its being again introduced.
However. strong effort will be made
by the most conservative delegates to
prevent anything OF the kind II IS
now frequently asked can the confer
enee finish its work before the end Of
the month. II it does, ii viii in ham
ding the remaining reports. eschew
speeches made for purely oratOrical
effect.
There are some reports which the
conference will De compelled either TO
abandon or refer 10 special bodies.
Among these is the report on patents
and trademarks. of which the decision
is set for to-nsorrow. Il viii probably
be recommended 10 refer this report to
the committee of five jurists who are
TO be appointed at Washington to cod
fly the principles of public and private
interna tional law. II Is probable that
the conference will reconsider its decis-
ion in regard to the committee of ju-
rists and recommend the appointment
of two European members of the COM
AtilLArr+ DONA the SAKE d Tic dsSlSL-
ance they viii be able to give from a
scientific point Of view and also in the
hope that the work thus initiated by
the conference Of American States in
Mexico may prove a, basis for the codi-
fication of the laws of nations in gen
eral.
A committee matter that has aroused
general interest is the report of Gen.
Rafael Reyes, of Colombia on the
means of f1uvial communication in
South America. If the contention of
Gen. Reyes is correct to the effect that
only a comparatively few miles of
canal digging is necessary to connect
the Amazon system of rivers with the
Platte system, undoubtedly a most inn
portant fact for the future develop
ment of a rich and virgin country has
been propounded.
The passing of the arbitration trea-
ties through the conference is still the
subject of conversation here.
Their final success proves that the
Peruvian and Argentine representa-
tives here played wonderfully fine
hand at the diplomatic game.
