much commented upon. Having started in
by praise of ttio kaiser , under whoso wise

lived so happily , bi. next sontcnco came as a
surprise. After a moment's hositatlon , ho
resumed :
"And lot us bo thankful thnt wo have

At the niimo of Blsmnrcl : tlioro had been
a dead sllonco in the largo banqueting hull
nnd then followed the heartiest , w.u-moU
npplausoof the ovening. The next sentence
was still moro Railing for the presnnt pov-
ornmcnt und Caprlvl. When the echoes of
, applause had censed , Mr. Phelps added :
"And lot us bo thankful that wo do not
belong to ii o-juniry that , it forced to Keep up
a huge standing army. "
Moro scathtn ? comment than the nbovo
coming fioin the mouth of a diplomat ,
could scurcflly bo Imigined. At the prosen

Debute In tliii Chamber nf
PAIIIS , Nov. CS. In the Chamber of
Deputies today Marquis la Fcrronnaycs , of
the right , qiioaliouod the government on
Unron Halnach's death , nnd expressed sur
prise that nolhlng had boon douo to discover
the truth In reference therewith. Ho re
ferred to rumors that the burial was only a
sham nnd lhat the coflln did not contain the
body of Baron Uilnuch , He demanded thnt
the coflln be exhumed and examined as to its
contents.
M. Hie ml , minister ot ) ustc3 ! , nrose and
snld that ho regretted thnt such accusations
had bzoa made. It was evident that the In
tention was to brlug discredit on thu ad
ministration.
There were protests from the right.
M. Rlc-ml continued , ho.vor-cr. Ho snld
thnt the usual formalities hail boon observed
in the burial of the linron Hoiuach's ' body.
Doctors had cortltled that death wus from
natural causes. A post mortem could not bo
ordered without previous Judicial Interven
tion. Ho was not prepared lo Intervene
himself , as no crlmo had been committed.
The parliament committee was powerless to
order an autopsy , and bo declined to Insti
tute Judicial proceedings , as it was the duty
f the Judges of Instructions iu the Panama
anal prosecution to cause a search ol
iaron Helnach's bouso If ho thought it
ocessnry. Ho concluded by asking that M.
a FiMTonnuycj question bo put In tbo
orm of an interpellation. He declared that
or himself ho bad acted strictly from u sense
> f duty. Ho hud not considered that ho was
lompjllcd totako Icgul steps.
M. Bnsson supported M. la Forronnaves'
cmund and said that tbo ofllcial seal should
ic ufllxed to Baron Hemach's papers , as it
hould bo imperative that llio truth should
10 discovered. [ Applauso.l Ilo concluded
ly moving u resolution of regret that these
lupors hud not boon scaled immediately on
ho doalh of the bnron.
Pronncr Lioubct arose and declared that
hat which M. Brissou requested was illegal.
M. Brissou protested.
M. Loubut continued by saying that M ,
Brlsson's words could bo interpreted only as
'ndlcutinc a want of conlidauci } . and ns the
iovornmont's intentions were regarded with
uspicion. ho bad nothing further to say.
Great commotion onsuod. When "order
ivas restored M. Loubtt simply declared
bat ho rejected M. Brisson's resolution.
M. Maujan proposed that there should bo
added to M. BrUeon's resolution un ex
pression of confidence in the government.
There was anplnuso from the loft when M.
oubat interposed lo buy that , dospllu the
ivishcs of tho'Chambor , ho could not agree

cept nothing but tbo simple order of iho

There was great oxcitornont , and by n vote

Biiu'sci.Nov. . 23. The documant sub
mitted by Alfrad do Kothschllil to the mone
tary conference today said in part ! "I foe
that n L'oUl standard in Bugln-id is the only
possible one , ana if wj consider that hat
whole commerce and a great part ot lhat of
other countries Is oirried on by bills o ox
chnnco nn ijondon , which nro naturally
payable In gold , it must bo ndmlttei
thnt the world eenei-Allv ttansaets businos
on a gold basis , nnd thut n double standard
with the exception of a very moillhed form
lioos not exist oven it : thuso countries pro
fessiiiL' to pay in either motal. Whatevc
international agreement sboulu bo mudo um
whutovcr ratio should bo established , gou
afono will Lc chosun as tl.o favorlto inudlum
nf scaling lurira debts or making largo ro
mlttanccs. It would bo impossible to roim
largo sums of silver abroad , owing to th
bulk. Cold would bo sent , oven if It bad t
bo bought at a premium. "
Koforring to the depreciation of silver h
bald Iri addition : ' 'Germany's action in 1ST ;
aiiditbo action ot Italy , Kuasiu and Austria in
massing gold is conclusive proof o
tbo appreciation of the great Kuropoar
countries of the advantages of a cole
standard. I cannot deplore the nbll
ity of Indian cxnorlors to send wheat
to England , simply because it Interferes
with iho British farmor. I hold that nDcat
allll ) shlllincs , Instead ofir > shillings is a
blosslng rather than otherwise. However ,
I think that the fall in the pnco of certain
commodities is duo to overproduction ,
chlelly owing to the development of new
i onions nnd to the increased facilities of
communication , enabling products to bo
placed at low prices In European markets ,
"Apart from other considerations , It seems
to mo that n universal arrangement of the
currency question is lniposlblu. As the
wealth and thn sources of expenditures of no
two countries ni-i ) alike , it would be impos-
fciblo to carry ou the traila of the world ou n
sound stable basis If the debtor wore
allowed tbu option of paying in which
ever currency suited him. Although I
hope Unit , I huvo shown thut bimetallism is
linpojslhlo in England , the question arises
whether or not it Is possible to extend the
use of silver , thereby stopping a further fall
and its disastrous consequences , whereof It
Is Impossible to foresee , I thcroforo submit
the pioposal , not as un absolute , lasting icm-
ody , but as u pullatlon. "
"If you approve the plan" continued Mr.
Hotlischlld , "you can make u supplement to
It in nny way you think proper baforo sub
mitting U to the governments. I think that
such an urrungomont ulll give
gennral satisfaction. 1 boilovo that
our American friends will find It
acceptable. 1 sea no objection to silver
being made a legal tender in England ! I
bcliovo tbiu tbo proposal will bo well re
ceived In India. The bulk of iho population
will rccoaiuro thut no material alteration is
suL'Kostcd , wbllothn merchants and bankers
will know lhat the uxchongcu are given n
stability which will remain undisturbed
dining u period nt llvg.yoai-a.
TnMab'.u ' cxfluuiuu moio than deprecia
tion is the i-lui'f factor in India. The gold
market will also bo relieved , us only Kuro-
pcau appeals will oo madtt thereto fo'r a long
limit , and us South Africa is increas
ing Her output of gold , tbo m--
ruiiKOiupnt suggested will enable Uuasla
and Austria to complete puichases
without unduly interfering with the money
market. If the confticnco adjourns without
having accomplished anv aellnlto result , U
will cause a fall In silver frightful to coa-
template. It will cause a uioneturv panic
of which It U Impossible to foreign the fut
spirading effect * . I allude to India
because the cessation of the Indian demand
for silver or material decline In the specie
owlnis lo iofiUlutlon woula materially affect
not only the savings of tiundi-cdi of mlllloni
of pcoplo but tno vuluo of silver genorully.
1 therefore hope for your ultimate approval ,

Niw : Yoitic , Nov. 23. The mombars of the
Now Vork presbytery assembled this after
noon for the pin pose of trying the amended
charges ot horosv ugalnat Prof. Charles A.
Hilggs. ThochniKC.s nro eight in number
and touch mostly on the denial of the verbil
Inspiration of the scrlnturo nnd the possi
bility of salvation , nsklo from Iho saving
b'lato of the scriptures.
Moderator Bliss asked for the privilege of
mnuinuiin announcement , llnsniuthat the
objections of Ur. Brlggi and his oxproised
purpose to carry his objJCtlons to the synod
should not bo IntorpeU-d us obnructloiib to
tbo trial , but in an honest expression ot con
viction , lla also snld that ho ballcvcd iho
prosecuting committee was equally conscien
tious.
At 3 o'clock Dr. Brlgijs began to road his
answer to the ch-irgcs us unnndoJ. The re
sponse was a most exhaustive summing up
of his defense , nnd it required two hours for
him to conclude.
Demurred tu tlin Trlul.
After stating that he bad no personal do-
slro to delay the actual trial of tha chnrno
against him on Its strict merits , Dr. Brlggs
showed that It was necessary for him to net
as his own counsel , and In this capacity ho
had no right to p.isi ever technicalities or to
allow the presbytery to os'nbltsn dangerous
or illegal precedents. Dr. Brigas than miulo
Ins flrst demurrer to tbo trial of the pres
ent charges because the charges put in
bib hands on November' ' ) . Ib'U , wcro litmtly
disposed of by Iho dismissal ot the charge
made on November 4 , IS'JI , and that the pres
bytery could not lecally clto him n second
tlmo lo answer to charccs which they had
dismissed.
The second objection which Dr. Briggs
raised wns tu the order nnd regularity of
every proceeding in the presbytery in any
nction tnicen against him since iho dismissal
of the original charges in 1891.
"But It is not for me , " ho said , "to advise
the piosbvtery what course It should pur
BUO. I have done ray lull duty In filing
these objections. I have only this further
work , that , If the presbytery ancidos ninin.st
mo , I shall proceed , under protest , and with
ho reservation of all legal lights ot securing
such redress in Iho higher courts as may bo
icccessary. "
Ills Sec-mill I'nlnt.
In the second objection ot his protest , Dr.
JJriggs dealt with the Irregularity of the
counts to the original chorees. Ho pointed
t that amendments to charges by the law
of the chuich are restricted to change in
orm und not to changes in substance. Ho

wns r.itbcr opposed to it , Ilo. however de
clined to submit a statement ot the com

S. U. Maekov. n relnll coal dealer ,
testified that the Poniisvlvantii company
chnrgcd retailers (15 ( cents to SI per ton moro
tliN year for coal than last. He uromHcd
to submit n comparative statement of prices
this year nnd last. Ho said retailers were
uot making as muni as In IS'.M. '
Secretary Holdcn said there was an In
formal agreement entered Intent the tide
water meeting. It wn thu natural outcome
of elrcumstanuas , that the output during the
winter months was loss than during lliu
HUinmer months. This was duo to the
weather and other causes.
On some sizes of unthrat-lto coal there had
been on ndvanco of from f > ( ) to ( ill cunts this
year ever the prices of last year ( Ib'Jl ) bv
the Pennsylvania Coal compiny. This ad
vance was occasioned by the nuar npptoaeh
t the dninnnd to Hie output at thu minei.
Congressman Patterson Now , is not this

Witness Not so far us ourconipauvls con-

WHnosa nilinlttcd thut the producers of
anthincito coal so'.d their products ut n iini-
orm price for the sumo quality of coal. It
wns alsp true , ho said , thai prices were lixod
by the executive olHcors of the various com
panies upon the reiiort of their respective
representatives nt the tidewater and western
neotings. It wns true that at those moot-
ngs it wus gene ally ncrosd upon us lo what
ho output and prices should ho for uivon
nonlhs. There wus neither forrai'l action
nor contract. Similar prices were llxod , but
lotahvuvs adhered to
Peter UoWlti , coal Jobber nt lit Uroad-
wav , tostllled that ho bought coal from the
companies , in the combine , lie hud no
rotlblo in golting all thn coal hs wanted ,
lie could not givb the commtttoo n list of

bought coal Horn the different companies at
IliTorent times , bomo months ha did not
buy , in v coal at nil. 1'hu circular unco of
the produc is nnd the actual pnco was closer
this year than formerly.
John U. ICorr. vice president of the Now
York , Ontario Ai Western company , tosttllcd
til at bis company did not produce uny coal :
they merely uetcd as common carriers for
coal producers along the line of their roads.
Mr. Dixon was recalled. Ho touillocl that
his llrmsimpW noted as sales agents for the
pioJuccrs. ilo sold 511,000 tons yearly. A
member , of his firm attended tha tldawalcr
and western meetings of the anthracite coal
companies. They based their prices solely
upon the supply ana demand. They come
pretty close to the circular prices
K. P. Saywnrd , editor of the Coal Trade

that ho hopoil the committee would ask him
Eomo intelllpent qtiest'oiis , so ho would be

him lo conduct himself with soinn degree of

Witness said Ins paper contained what
purported to boa corioct list of prices. In
milking up n statement of pi Ices , he said , it
must bo taken Into consideration that the
