as is compatible with the thoroi.

, ;i.Tlie .language: of the commissions
! issued, to the members so clearly de-
fines tiieir ta.sk that it left little to be
; said by-Secretary Olney on this' point
. and the feature- of his remarks was
s the explanation of the desire of the
government that the
suanee of its investigation and as
J master of its own procedure at all
; times. At the conclusion of the con-
: fere nee1 with Secretary Olney the com:
; jnissiou' retired to the diplomatic room

i Secretary Olney tendering the service
I of his own private ' secretary, Mr.

"I may on some proper occasion
hereafter give the reason for nay faith
in our present financial system. All I
ask now is that you will not disturb il
with your deficiencies; you will not
rob it of its safeguards; you will nol
return to the days of wildcat money;
you will not lessen the savings of pru
dent labor or the accumulations o' th
rich. Time makes all things even.
Let us give to the executive authori
ties ample means to meet the appro
priations you have made, bat let as
strengthen, rather than weaken, our
monetary system, which lies at tho
foundation of our prosperity and
progress."
Mr. Mills replied to Mr. Sherman's
tariff arguments, asserting that tho
McKinley bill bred the original deiicit
Mr. Elkins next spoke. H i aaid the
Honse bond bill was intended to meet
an emergency. There was no reason,
he said, why the President and Secre
tary of the Treasury should b allowed
to sell bonds without advertising, say
ing that they should not be given a
privilege which would not be grunted
to private individuals in ordinary af
fairs, lie criticised the last bond
issue, claiming that the commission
was too great. He saw n. reason why
loans should not be floated at home.
Mr. Elkins thought the peopii were
as likely to buy from the government
as from a syndicate, and considered
the syndicate supertltious. Tho Pres
ident should take the people into his
confidence. He a-ked for a vote on
his resolution, saying it was urgent
because there was danger that tha
bonds would soon ba issued.
Mr. flill moved to refer the resolu
tion to the finance committee. He
thought there was no question as to
the propriety of the reference as the
finance committee had the .iubj.fct be
fore it in the House bill. Tna com
mittee had, he said, adjourned until
Tuesday, the question could be con
sidered carefully between now and
then. lie asserted that there was
more than a single question involved
in this proceeding. The question
of whether bonds should be sold at
public or private sale should go with
the bill now under consideration by
the committee. The -Senate resolution
would carry no weight It was only
an expression of the Senate alone. It
was expected to have tome weight
with the executive . but he did not
know that it would.
, Mr. Elkins motion for consideration
(not passage) of his resolution for nub-
'! lie advertisements for bonds, passed
