LONMIO.V , Nov. 53. . Hoforo the Euellsh
flclopatcs to the Intornntional monetary con
ference atnrtcd for Brussels the instructions
given by Sir William Vcrnon llarcourt ,
chancellor of the exchequer to Sir Froa-
mantle , the deputy master of the mint , and
C. Hlvors Wilson , were to oxpodlato the de
liberations and to obtain contlti.ious sittings
daily , with the oxcoptlons of Saturdays and
rSundays , so as to bring the conference to on
end within a few woolts. Sir William
Vernon llarcourt had lonrnod that the
Atnoncan delegates co.itomplatod n
full discussion with tlmo slvon to
nil sides to pronaro arguments , slallatics and
Tacts , and for responding to their opponents.
This course , Involving as It did , nn adjourn
ment over Christmas , neither mot with the
approval of the Ilrltlsh minister nor certain
of the English delegates , who nro strong
ulnglo standard men. Un the eve of the day
the delegates stirlcd for IJrussoU , the repre
sentative ofiho Associated press learned
from lilch authority that If the conference
svas prolonged hojoml three wcoks , the load
ing English reprusontallves would rolurn to
London , leaving the less important members
of the delegation to watch thu proceedings.
Olijoctlons from tlio Kiiulljli.
Private advices from IJrussols show that
Sir C. Uivors Wilson nnoiiod tbo opposition
to prolonged debates ns soon as the delegates
began their Intercommunication- ob
jected to the proposal that President Lovl
made , on the suggestion of the American
delegates , and supoortod by a majority of
tbo conference , that an Interval of a day for
preparation bo allowed l-otweon each sitting.
Tbo reasonable remonstrance thai the dele
gates who spoke different languages
English , ' Fronoh and German could
not oxchungo views without un op
portunity to study , had no effect upon
the English determination to hurry the deliberations -
liberations throjgh. C. Ulvors Wilson and
bis colleagues only finally assented to Presi
dent Lovl's proposal on Undine that they
stood nlono. The Incident has created the
impression among the member. ) ot the con
ference at I'russals that the English dele
gates want to broalt up the meeting or have
it fail to achieve any definite results. In the
meantime they have received n decisive
chock. A' great majority of the delegates
evidence every disposition to go thoroughly
Into the matter and to clvo themselves up to
It until every Plan promising internalional
coinage has boon examined na fond. . - -
The special correspondent of the Man
chester Guardian , who is m intimate touch
with some of the loading delegates , tele
graphs that the conduct of the British dele
gates surprises tbo other European represen
tatives. The Americans ask why they woru
broueht across the Atlantic If such a policy ,
aiming nt iho falluro of the conference , Is to
bo pursued.
Impressed by tlio Ancrlcnn- | .
The corrcspoudont adds that all eyes are
turned upon iho American delogaiiou , which
is a remariuiuly impressive ono. Senator
Allison has the highest , repute amonc the
members of the conference. Senator Jones
is a man of extraordinary force of character
nod rare ability. Ho has decided to im
press Iho committee with his single-minded-
ness'ln Iho matter.Vcro ho to make a tour
. ot England he would win a host of friends to
his cause. It is with n sense of non-fusion
that the Enzlishmon listen to tbo remarks of
the. American delegation , on the imperfect
Knowledge of currency questions displayed
r. , by the English ropreseutativcs.
The representative of tbo Associated press
has bud an interview wllh Mr. Uauu Horton ,
who Is now In Brussels , iu consultation with
the delegates. Mr.Hortonsald that there were
several classes of opinion , Some- people
wanted nllvor lot alone to ilnd its own level ,
some wanted something done , but wished
other countries than their own to do itwhilo
others were out and out friends of
allvcr. The last mentioned were un
doubtedly moving forward and recruiting ad
herents. Yet , so far as Iho conference was
concerned , there would probably bo more
? ' hope than n promise of immediate favor-
nb'o results.Vtnlo some of the dolocatos ,
especially among the English , think tbo
meriting will prove premature and that dis-
urodlt will arise from its theoretic proceed-
inpv-tho game is too long undiils movements
must bo careful. Mr. Horinu further said
that the conference would test the growth of
education on thn subject on the continent.

R : Iconic for nil ICnrly I'nll of tlio Government.
Mr. Gladstone will return to HawarAon on
Thursday. Though tha cabinet does not
resume its councils until January ho ministers -
tors and commlttnos will occasionally moat ,
Tbo industry ot the ministers is unprcoo-
leutod. Autumn cabinet councils were
never known to begin ao early nor last so
' ) ng. Whatever the cabinet may accomplish
9- In the extent of his legislative proposals the
liberals fear that the session of parllmcnt
9F will see DO important measure passed. A
syiuiJtom of the general apprehension of an
F early collapse of the government Is found In
the f < tgt that almost no private bills uru
t ' "ooln ; ; promoted In parliament. Lawyer * .
, rho nro iho boat j mines ns to whether the
josslon will bo long enough to dual with
Lrlvato bills , havn advised agents not to
promote such bills , ion the ground that It
would be n wusto of monov to do so , an early
dofnnt of the government bclug regarded ns
probable. v .
The house of commons will present n

Nov. & } . The International
monetary confctonco resumed Its ftllttngs
this morning. Senators Allison and Jones
set forth the American suggestions ,
bnslnc them on the monetary situation
In the United Stales and the countries rep
resented In the conference. The greatest
secrecy wm maintained concerning 'tho
terms of the Amorljan proposals. Alfred

tlon In silver , as compared xvilh gold. Is frequent -
quont , The violent Huclualions in gold and
In the price of silver Incident thereto Is ln -
jurious to the commercial and other economic
Interests ot nil civilized countries , and nro
causing serious evils nnd inconvenleucos to
trade , the full extent of which catuintyot bo
inoasurcd. "
It Is thu unanimous opinion nf the people of
the United States that the cstabllshmuutof n
fixity of vnluo for gold and silver and the
full use of sllvorus n coin tnotnl , upon a rallo
llxod bv nn aerooment between the great
.commercial nations of the world will proatlv
promjto the prosperity of 'all classes of poo-
pie. They bellova the sentiment in favor of
the larger u o of silver is rapidly growing ,
and that the time Is pronitlous for nn Inter
national conference on the subject. The trov-
ornmontof the United Stiles , while frankly
disclosing Its own views , does not wish to
Impose any conditions that will omburrass
any government willing to confer ou the
question. Thu United States delegates , in
conformity with the general purposa of the
conference , submit the following resolution :
Kosolvod , Thnt In the opinion ofthlsron-
foiontollls dcslniblo thiilmunns bu found for
thu nio of sllvor In HID currency systems of

posats tcndlngito this end , nnd further that

the delocrutoa submitted n plan ns follows :
First , thnt which MoriU Levy proposed at
the conference- 1831 ; secondly , thn plan of
Prof. Sootier , nnd , laslly , the plaa submitted

Discussing tlio Proposals ,
In explaining the position .of himself and
colleagues Senator Allison said whllo they
cumo representing the government of the
linked States nnd favocing the hl-motalllo
plan , they were willing to-discuss any plans
calculated lo promote an Increase in value
in silver bullion , Ho Raid it was lo the in
terest of tno poopla of the United States , as
well as these ot other nations , to sccuro
under au .international agreement a stabla
standard or agreement.
Sir Charles Rives Wilson said the British
delegate's adhered to thu American resolu
tion , which was really the basis on which
the conference mot.
M. Ticrard of the French delegation
thought the method of proccoduro proposed by
Iho Americans peculiar. Ha wished to say ,
however , for tbo French dolecutlon , they
cornovith nn earnest desire to consider most
cordially every -proposal tcndlncr to rehabili
tate silver.
The Austrian and German do'cgatos Inti
mated that they are Instructed to say they
could not assent to any modification of their
existing monetary laws.
The Dutch , Spanish and Mexican dole-
pates assented to VOID favorable on the

CIIIOAOO. HI. , Nov. 25. It is generally ba-
lloved that the action of tbo Atcbison road
u threatening to withdraw from the West-
? rn Passenger association unless the South
western Missouri business U oxcoptcd from
the ngroomout will have the effect. Of
course the "dcsirod offoot" is reorganiza
tion with all the Important roads iu
the territory as members. Oilier com
panies beside the Atchison are of tlio
ODinion Ibat the time has come for a
reorganisation. The Chicago & Alton ,
ono of tbo strongest roads competing for
St. Louis and Kansas City business , is at
present an aulsido lino. It u-ns ruled out by
Chairman Finloy , whoso rulings it declared
to bo unjust and unnuthorl/.p'd. There Is no
doubt that the Alton would llko to Juln with
Us competitors In un iigrecmont to maintain
rates , but to return to tlio association would
bo equivalent to a confession that it was
wrong in the Finloy controversy and 1x > -
gidus would iiccoibitalb thp payment of a
heavy line Imposed upon it at that time.
The Alton management has no intention of
placing itself In such a position , If the as-
BocluUon was reorganized it could bccomo a
member without Iu thu least hurting Itself ,
