TO EXCHANGE GOLD FOR SILVER
Report Submitted by the Committee
on Coinage, Weights and Measures.

Representative Hill of Connecticut has
presented the majority report from the
House committee on coinage, weights and
measures in favor of the bill providing for
the eXchangeability Of gold and silver
coins The report largely follows that of
last year on the same bill, although Mr.
Hill has added much new information as to
the worlds supply of the precious metals
The report says that the enormous in
crease of gold production makes 1t unnec-
essary to consider the effect of the pro-
visions of the bill making a gradual change
IN the status of silver dollars and silver
certificates by virtue of which. instead of
DelnS full legal tender, silver will become
only limited legal tender. 1t says that
our stock OF gold increased $4T9 9ol 811 in
creased gold production in the United
states and the reopening of the South At
rlcan mines, viii increase still more in the
next hVe Years. The report, in conclusion
sums up the reasons why the bill, whose
chief provisions have been made nuhlic
heretofore, should be adopted as follows:
FIRST Because ii will stop the further
coinage OF the legal-tender silver dollar.
Second. Because it will increase the vol
ume OF subsidiary coin, which Is greatly
needed e-'
Third. Because it will In time reduce tbe
volume OF legal-tender silver without loss
TO the country.
Fourth. Because II will make everv Ia
gal-tender dollar in the United States the
equivalent of gold, and make more sure and
certain the maintenance of the gold stand-

FIRST AGRICULTURAL BULLETIN.
Census Bureau Report on Massachu.
setts Farm Products


The first Of the bulletins on the apricuf
tural resources and production of the yart-
Gus states has been issued by the census
bureau. By that showing the gross farm
income of Massachusetts, during the year
1850 was $34,033.564, produced on 37,715
farms, with total value of S15s, ,O19. 800.
OF the figures given as the farm value of
the state 45 per cent represents the value
of buildings and 55 per cent the value of
the land and improvements other than the
buildings. The farm implements and ma
chinery reported were worth $S, ,S28 $50, and
the live stock was worth SIS, 79S, ,464, giving
a total for farm equipment OF $1S2, 646 704.
The value of all crops and animal products.
including the animals sold or Slaughtered
on farms. In 1899 was So, POS, 275. of which
almost 55 per cent was produced by the
crops and forest cuttings. In 1899 the value
OF the farm products was 81, ,225, ,774 greater
than in 1850, which difference is partly ae
creditable to more detailed enumeratio,
in the earlier year. In the products az
the dairy, market garden and poultry farm
the agricultural resources of Massac achusetts
seem to have increased steadily. while
cereal production and live stock culture
have decreased.

FOREIGN TRAVEL IN CHINA
correspondence on the Subject Trans
mitted by Minister Conrer.


The State Department has made public
some correspondence transmitted by United
States Minister Conger at Pekin, under da tie
OF October 81, upon the subject of foreign
travel in the interior of China
The first portion of the corresnondence
consists of two notes from Prince Ching.
imperial commissioner and president of the
board of foreign affairs, to Mr.. Conger. The
first note incloses dispatch from Viceroy
LII superintendent of the trade of the north,
setting out a petition from one of the act
ing district magistrates under his iurisdic
tioh. The petition, in substance urges that
IN view of the recent disturbances I'm the
inferior or the empire, foreigners who desire
70 travel in China shall live up to treaty
stlpulations by informing the Chinese
authorities, through their consuls of that
1act, so that the latter may appoint a guard
to accompany them. Prince Ching's second
note lncIoses petition from the territorial
taotat of Tien Tsin, asking that all foreign
travellers be required to give at least two
weeks advance notice in order to Secure
proper care and avoid delay"
In reply to Prince Ching Mr. Conser
stated that he would at once notify Ameri-
cans that they must at all times strictly
observe the treaty stipulations. He said
however, Il trust that such complete order
Will soon be restored throughout the empire
and such watchfulness on the part of the
Chinese authorities be practiced that the
trouble and expense of a guard for every
single party will not long be necessary
Minister Conger also stated that the re-
quirement of two weeks advance notice
suggested by the territorial taotai of Tien
Tsin was unreasonable, unnecessary and
unwarranted by the letter or the spirit of
the treaties"
The correspondence closes with circular
issued by Mr.. Conger to the heads of the
American missions at Pekin, and a letter
to Consul RagsdaIe at Tien Tsin requesting
that notification be sent to the missionaries
at those places to strictly comply with the
treaty regulations regarding travel in
China.

IDENTIFICATION BUREAU.
An Amendment to Provide for an As.
sistant.

Representations will be made before the
House committee on the judiciary when the
bill establishing a national Identification
bureau is taken up, to have that measure
amended by the insertion of a paragraph,
providing that an assistant be EMPLOYED In
the new bureau at an annual salary Of
$500. The assistant is to make statistical
and scientific studies of data gathered by
the bureau.
The reasons given are that much very
valuable data from scientific standpoint
will be gathered in this bureau and prom
erly qualified investigators should have the
privilege of using ii. Any scientific inyesti-
cation which has for its object the asccr-
tanning of the causes that lead to CRIME.
should meet with the absolute and unauali-
fed approval of Congress. The crfrninolo-
gists would find in this bureau more nm
terial upon which to base scientific study
OF criminals, than would be found in any
institution throughout this country. Onr
government pays out millions every wear TO
catch, try and care for criminals ard vet
Congress has never encouraged the study of
them with the view of finding out the cause
for such enormous expenditures oe nIhHc

more than $660,0OO,O00 every year NOT ~

anguish. Since Congress represents the
people, should 1t not inquire into the cause
of all this expense and suffering? proner

nails in conjunction with the study of socio-
logical data, will guide further toward the
proper means of preventing crime than all

GOVERNMENT OF PHILIPPINES.
Representative Cooper on the Effect of
His HfII-

Representative Cooper, chairman Of the
House committee on insular affairs. and
author Of the bill establishing a civil gov
ernment in the Philippines, has made
statement regarding this plan OF self-gov-
ernment for the islands. He said:
1T has been suggested in opposition to
the provision in the House bill to establish
a civil government In the Philippines. to
begin on January /, 1904, that IL is unwise
to attempt to pass a law to take effect two
years from now. But it is a mistake to say
that the effect of such law would be post
poned for two years. On the contrary. II
would have an immediate effect upon the
minds of the Filipino people, especially
upon those OF the educated and intelligent,
and, in the language OF the commission,
would satisfy their desire for definite
knowledge of the intention OF Congress
with respect to their country
Speaking of the difference between the
House bill and the Senate bin, Mr. Cooper
said: "The chief difference between the
two bills is in the provision for the estab-
lishment of civil government. The Senate
bill simply continues IA power the existing
government. The bill which introduced In
the House goes farther than that and pro-
vides not only for the present and tenn
uary 1, 1904, but also carries a system OF
government to go>into effect on and after
that date, In accordance with the recon-
mendations of the Philippine commission
in It's lass report, received about three
weeks ago"
