THE SILVER ISSUE.
TREASURY OFFICIALS ON THE
SITUATION.
HO EXTRA SESSION UNTIL FALL
The Whit Metal Hill Farther Decline
la London Senator Dolph on the
Effect of the Kepeal of the Sher
man Law Wall Street Quito
Unsettled Over the Closing
of tbo Indian Mint.
The Coinage of the White Metal by the
Mint Mopped.
London, June 27. In the house of
lords to-day the Earl of Kimberly,
lord president of the council and sec
retary of state for India, stated that
the Indian council had passed an act
for the immediate closing - of the
Indian mints to the free coinage
of silver. lie added that arrange
ments were being made to issue
rupees from the mints in exchange for
gold at the rate of sixteen pence per
rupee and for receiving sovereigns and
half sovereigns at the treasuries in
pavment of dues at the same rate.
the Earl of Kimberly said that it
was intended toHntroduce the gld
standard in India, but that gold in the
meantime would not be made the sole
legal tender.
As Viewed In Washing-ton.
Washington, June 27. Information
received at the treasury department
leads to the belief that the closing of
the mints of India to the free coin age
of silver will result in a heavy further
decline in the price of bar silver. The
London quotation to-day was two
pence lower than Saturday's prices,
equal to more than four cents decline
at New York.
It is i ntimated that when congress as-
sembles there will be evidence to show
the impossibility of the United States
keeping silver at a parity with gold
against the opposition of the rest of
the world. It is expected that the re
sults of the cessation of coinage in In
dia will prove the necessity of the
v repeal of the Sherman silver law and
thus remove one of the greatest diffi
culties the administration had to con
tend with. '
What effect the pr.etiii placing of
India on a gold basu wiVt have on the
general scramble for gold, in which
the nations of Europe have been en
gaged in for months, no one knows.
It is not thought, however, that it will
prevent a free movement of gold to
this country if the natural conditions
of trade are 6uch in the next six
months as to justify such a movement
It is believed the final solution of
the silver question will be hastened by
this action of the Indian council. The
opinion is expressed that it will either
force the nations of the world into an
agreement on the -subje -f of silver or
else it will force silver u. i permanent
position as a subsidiary metal.
Washington, June 28. The first
iint as to the probable course of this
government concerning silver, came
this morning when it was announced
that the international monetary con
ference would not be reconvened by
any action of the United States,
One effect has been to renew the de
mand for an early session of congress
and this view of the situation was pre
sented to Secretary Carlisle this morn
ing by many of his congressional call
ers and by numerous y' .grams Irom
all sections of the country.
Treasury department officials were
. unanimously this morning of the
opinion that congress would not bo
called together until September.
While the ultimate repeal of the Sher
man law would arpear to be
reasonably well assured, nobody
familiar with the situation and
with parliamentary methods expects
that congress will act on the subject
Immediately upon assembling. The
president message to the special
acstdon will probaldy deal with that
question alone, but several weeks
must elapse before the house is
organic! and the committees are
ready for Imslue and for that length
of time at leant the silver question
will have to wait Then the senate
will take up the tight and the aenate
la alow.
The prealdent himself Is under no
delusion as ta what U ttere hitn or
the country. He 1 greatly rnootir
aireti by the change of sentiment
throughout the country ami he
believe that the taw will be
repealed, but he is not counting
on an abject surrender by the friend
of (roe coinage. He rcalUe that they
wilt content the parliamentary ground
stubbornly and prevent a prompt re
sponse l I he demand for repeat. He
and Hia ndvUers think It Wot, there
fur, that these facta be taken lito
aoeount by the country to considering
eutlkiiikrUg for the future.
ths vti.tr ikiatkr ij.ru.
iteeator Itolph of Oregon, who is
the only Pacific slope senator here,
said to-day: "I am opposed to my col
league, as you know, on the subject of
free coinage, and am in favor of main
taining all the currency on a par with
gold, but it seems to me this
action of the Indian government
will diminish instead of increase
the prospect of passing a repeal of
the Sherman law by the senate. I
think the effect will be to make
thoughtful members hesitate before
they further depreciate the value of
silver by suddenly throwing upon the
markets of the world the 450,000,000
ounces of silver, equivalent to
nearly the whole American product
now purchased and stored by the gov
ernment. I do not know that anything
better than the repeal of the Sherman
act can be done to relieve the situa
tion, but I am fearful that the repeal
of the act would be disastrous to the
finances of the government and to
silver."
Banks all over the country have lent
money to persons who have contracts
with the government or claims against
it and now the banks are as anxious
as the debtors themselves to scrape
every dollar together that can' be
got out of the government's strong
box. They are besieging the treasury
to have the claims of their customers
expedited in auditing and payment
made on,., the very instant of
maturity, if possible One banker
who had been advancing money on
some public wortf. going on in his
neighborhood, had his '.customer's
draft sent to him the other day arid',
by some accident in the mail it was
delayed a few hours. So much inter
est did he feel in hurrying things up
that he telegraphed here to see
whether it would not be possible to
draw on the government by wire.
SILVER GOES STILL LOWER.
Secretary Carlisle received a cable
message from London announcing a
further decline in the price of silver
to thirty-five pence. At this price a
silver dollar is worth fifty-eight and
three-fourth cents as bullion. '
CONSIDERED Bt, THE ABIHET.
All the members of the cabinet ex
cept Secretary Uresham were in at
tendance at to-day's meeting. The
president has not spoken about the
matter of calling an early extra ses
sion to anyone, nor has Sec
retary Carlisle. Among the con
gressmen in town the gen
eral impression is that the time
fixed for the extra session will not be
changed and that congress will not
meet until September. It can be
stated most positively that the presi
dent has as yet arrived at no decision
and that there has come from him no
utterance upon which any of the hun
dred or more rumors now afloat can
be at all predicated.
Treasury officials opposed to the free
coinage of silver, while admitting that
this radical action of India will tem
porarily result to her disadvantage,
believe that with a rich soil and 2."0,
000,000 people fairly productive, after
the reaction is over India will recover
from the shock.
It is pointed out that her exports of
merchandise ana cereals largely ex
ceed her imports, and that the value
of the rupee, the current money of
the county, is definitely fixed at one
shilling and four pence (thirty
two cents our money); the loss
which she has suffered hereto
fore in the fluctuations of value
of the rupee will be done away with,
and by many it is believed that the
large hoardings of gold known to
exist in India will soon begin to be
brought from their hiding places and
be converted into coin. During the
last fifty years the net imports of gold
into India aggregated about 8800,000,
000. FACTS ABOUT SILVER.
Information obtained from the
treasury department shows that the
world's product of silver during the
last fiscal year was 152,000,000 ounces,
of which the United States purchased
4,000,000 outside of the silver
used in the arts, which is
estimated at ataut 7.000,000
ounces. Tne purchase by India we
05.000,000 ounces, which was coined.
This makes the United States an4
India combined use lon.ooo.ooo ounces
of silver purchased last year, leaving
4tl.0oo.000 ounces of silver for use in
the arts in the other countries o the
world.
The highest price ever attained by
silver In the United Mate was at the
time of the passage of the lil.tnd ailver
bill, February 2. 17. when the price
was f I. '.'2 per ounce. The ailver dol
lar was then worth ninety-three cent.
At no period since then ha it been
worth so much. When the Sherman
act went into effect, August, JS.MJ,
there wtt a spirt In the price of ailver
and It went up to 11.21 per ounce. In
the time between the ag of the
island law in l7 and the ssage of
the Sherman In Uw ailver went to
ninety-two cent per ounce, which wat
niatlumm price during that period.
Sluce Aujfu.t, idi-O, the prlco ha
gradually decline, with IWtukUmi
until yesterday It readied I tie lowest
point on record -ai sty nine cent per
fine ounce, luaklng the silver dollar
worth atsty and ouw half cent bullion.
LINCOLN. NEB., THURSDAY. JUNE 29, 1893.
Since 1835 India lias coined ailver
free. During the last calendar year
the Indian government coined 48,000,
000 ounces. Since the passage of the
Wand and Sherman acts the United
States has coined $426,000,0 0 of sil
ver. Of the amount of silver pur
chased under the Sherman act 127,
000,000 ounces remain uncoined in the
vaults of the treasury.
SITUATION ON WALL STREET.
Still Influenced by the CI on lug of the
Indian Mluts.
New York, June 28. -The situation
in Wall street has been further com
plicated by the latest developments in
silver. This started renewed liquida
tion yesterday and rivet ted attention
on the attitude of the incoming
congress regarding the Sherman silver
purchase law. The great majority of
the Wall street people are'anti-silver-ites
and their interest lies in a repeal
of the law. They argue that the com
pulsory purchase of silver monthly
must be abolished before there can be
any lasting improvement
In the meanwhile speculation at
the stock exchange is at a very low
ebb and the variations in prices which
occur from day to day, save perhaps
for the closing out of the account of
some belated bull, simply reflect the
operations of the professional element
One of the bright spots of the situa
tion is the demoralization of sterling
exchange. This holds out the hope of
gold imports.. To-day it was rumored
that about 82,000,000 had been en
gaged in London for shipment here,
but here money again comes in as an
important factor, as the wide fluctua
tions in rates brings in an element of
doubt With money at 6 one' minute
and 40 the next the shippers are apt
to go slow before ordering this way,
as the profit at best is a small one.
Silver was weak to-day. The best
bid for the certificates was 70 against
78 at the close yesterday. Commercial
bar silver dropped to 73, while Mexi
can dollars are nominally 40 cents.
Brokers prefer, however, not to give a
quotation for the latter. At the stock
exchange silver mining stocks broke 4 X
to 12. The market is still influenced
by the closing of the Indian mints.

THE MARINE HORROR
DUE TO DEFECTS IN THE LOST
WAR SHIP.
GREAT INDIGNATION EXPRESSED.
Some One High In Authority Must II
Held Responsible Mane Sad Scene
Witnessed at the Admiralty Orltce
No Recovering the Ilodle
No , Authentic Story
of the Disaster.
London, June 26. That the disaster
to the great battle-ship Victoria was
due to defects in the lost ship for which
some one high in authority must be
held responsible is undoubted and
while there is deep sorrow for the
dead and sympathy for the relatives
and friends of those who went down
with the ship, indignation is expressed
that such an accident should occur.
A special staff of officials was kept
on duty all night at the admiralty of
fice at Whitehall for the purpose of
receiving any official dispatches that
might arrive. The only information
received, however, was the names of
those who had been saved and that
only came to hand at 6:30 o'clock this
morning.
Hundreds of persons living in thfl
provinces who had relatives or friends
on board the Victoria could not wait
at home for the receipt of further de
tails of the disaster. As soon as they
heard of the foundering1 of the ship
they took trains for London in the be
lief that at the admiralty oUlce they
would soon learn whether their loved
ones had escaped or gone down with
the ship. Many of these stood silent
ly through the night, their drawn faces
and despondent attitudes showing the
great mental strain they were under
going. Through the long hours of the
night the crowd gained fresh acces
sions and when the list of the saved
was posted this morning there was a
terrible push toward the bulletin
board to learn who had escaped. Those
in the rear were aided in their search
for information by stentorian voiced
men who read aloud the names of the
saved.
When women found that the names
they were listening for were not on
the list they cried bitterly and turned
from the crowd and walked slowly
and despondently away. Others were
violent in their demonstrations of sor
row, while others fainted away and
had to be attended by the police, extra
numbers of whom were on duty in the
vicinity.
The only touch of gladness to the
scene was when some one in the crowd
heard the name of husband, father or
lover read. In an instant the look of
despair would vanish and be replaced
with a smile and a brightening of the
eyes tnat brought iortn reciprocal
smiles from those who were only at
tracted to the place through curiosity.
Many of the crowd still linger about
the admiralty office, awaiting the pos
sible receipt of further news.
SO KEC'OVEKlNO THE BODIES.
It is stated that no attempt will be
made to recover the bouies of those
who went down in the vessel. The
vessel lies in 480 feet of water, and it
will be an almost impossible tank to
recover the dead. It is probable that
in the course of a very few day a
number of bodies will float out from
the hull, and all these will be wacthed
for and given burial on the land
Funds are being Started to aid those
who have lost their supporters.
Gratifying subscription are being
made to these funds and it Is believed
large sums of money will be raised.
Among the prominent subscribers to
the tund started by the Lord Mayor
of London is (Juccn Victoria, who has
given 12,300.
A telegram to the Kxchange Tele
graph company state that the Vic
toria was cut into aft of the barbette.
Most of tho,e who lt their live
were drowned by being drawn under
the water by the suction caused by
the sinking ship.
Vice Admiral Sir George Tryon wa
picked up shortly after the vesael
sank and carried on Ixmrd the Kdln
burgh, one of the fleet under hia com
mand, where he died shortly after
ward. The dispatch boat Surprise i
expected to arrive at Malta to-morrow,
hhe will convey to Malta the
Isnly of Vice Admiral Tryon. The
remainder of the fleet I due to arrive
at Malta on Monday,
It i iiot believed that the full story
of the disaster can be obtained until
the arrival at Malta of the Camper
