Prcceaing that call , the classes which have struggled for twenty years to overthrow the bimetallic money standard provided by the constitution In- nugurated n panic which they truthfully charged to the existing silver law , Ignoring the facts that there were $300,000,000 of out standing legal tender nolcs , commonly called 'greenbacks , ' Hint vrern equally available with the treasury notes , issued In payment for silver , to draw gold from the treasury ; that the balance of our foreign trade had turned against us , rendering settlement nbroad with American ROld a necessity , and that the bankers of I3uropo were purchasing gold with which to change the money stand ard of Austria nnd to fill the treasury vaults of other monarchical countries. The evident purnoso was to create prejudice against what is known as the silver purchase act and under pressure secure Its unconditional re peal. .Moulin to ( lulu Their Kudi. "Tlio success of this scheme was only partial. Venal presidential patronage , sup plementing facts and incendiary utterances uy the gold press , aggravated by daily cir cular assaults upon the law by eastern money brokers , sent to every commercial body and banking corporation in the four quarters of the country , hud possibly won over the hotiso of representatives to it , but oven the president admitted that In the BCimto there waa stnuncn majority against it. When suddenly , like n lire boll in the night , the neWB Hashed beneath the oceans that free coinage In India had been suspended , and that the market price of silver 'had' fallen within forty-olght hours fully 20 cents per ounce. This startling action. forced upon the Indian government without a moment's warning , the step held in secret contempla tion by the British government for mouths , to bo taken at n critical and opportune time , when the consternation It must create , It was hoped , would stampede the hist phalanx of bimetallism's defenders , must have had , ns one of Its chief alms. Iho Intimidation of the senate to bring it in line with the sub servient lower house. "Immediately the wires were burdened with appeals to the president from banks nnd banking houses , nnd commercial bodies dominated by them , for1 an extra session , nnd to senators to repeal the Sherman law , which , it was claimed , was responsible for all the disaster.

"H is Idle to hope that reducing the value of sliver lo Iho lowest stage will force Great Britain to seek Inuinmtionul seclusion Irom the dilemma. The hinglo standard power Is in Its hands. Members of her cabinet have fully anticipated the low degree to which silver will descend. They have discounted its disturbance of her Indian trade and stoelt'd their hearts against the crime , It will bo against her Indian subjects. The power that could plot for seventy-seven years ; that could force Us yoke upon Ger many , the I itin union , Austria and Iho Unltvd States ; that could gain to its aid the daily press of the country ; that could con trol for twenty years the national conven tions of the great American political parties granting In ihnir platforms professions of bimetallism , but al ways securing presidential candidates unalterably opposed to HT Hint could rhango an overwhelming sentiment among the people for blmHnlllsiu to a fooling of enmity or Inditforoiico , can never bo in duced to relent , for it has counted the cost I and has learned Its power , "Tho Sherman law Is not the work of sil ver-producing states. It was forced uixm j the country against their will , Their .con stant demand has been that of the agri cultural states of the west nnd south nnd of thn worKing mass of the whole country. They have never scrught lo impose upon the country some now financial nostrum , but have asked simply for the restoration of the coinage laws as they were from tbo first year of the federal constitution until Iho furtive repeal of 187:1. : The Sherman law was Iho trick by which Unit restoration was de feated. It was accepted by blmotullisls its Jit u pledge that the old laws should , at some future tlmo , bo restored , nnd they now do- innnil , not that Iho Sherman law shall bo re tained , but that the hostage Rlmll bo re deemed by the ro-cnactmcnt In Us stead of the coinage lawB under which tbo country grow and prosu | < rod for more than three- Hiiurtcrs of a century , What the Hilverltrs ncinmiil. * "The charge that the blmetullisu demand thai (10 cents shall bo made $1 Is a lie , it was Iho irlck of the single standard con- epirators thai lessoned tlio value of silver. j Hud gold been demonetized Instead of silver j --retaining for silver its grcaicst USD nnd ! chlefcst function , and depriving gold of I its ercnii'sl and chiefcst function , i gold would not today bo worth { 25 per ounce , and silver's value and purchasing power would bo Increased largely I j kbovtils former highest figure.

They urge the old law , with supreme confidence bornoof the unassailable truths of history , that it will Immediately plai-o every coined American dollar upon n par value , both as coin and bullion , restore the bonds of weakened love and confidence nnd set In happy motion the wheels of all the country's magnificent industries. KfTccU of Itrpritlon the \Ve t. "Will you listen to us while wo speak In words of sober earnestness of the local effects the unconditional repeal of the silver law will have ! "Tho silver mining states and territories , embracing 1,000XX ( ) square miles of the con tinent , with 2,000.000 Americans inhabiting them , depend peculiarly upon silver mining for their prosperity. That Industry Is the very heart from which nearly every other Industry receives support. Agriculture will not thrive without artificial irrigation : its mines of coal , Iron , stone nnd clay , while magnificent , uro worked with such dear labor nnd nro so remote from other local markets that their movement would bo feeble and their operation disastrous with out the stimulus the mining Industry affords. It supports our foundries , operates our machine shops , supplies our rail roads with freights , stimulates travel , keeps bright the llrcs of the smelters and sends customers to the shops of our mcr- chantB. It has Invoked In the valleys and u ) > on mountain sides magnificent cities and thrifty towns nnd villages. Great manufac tories of paper , cotton , leather , iron , stclil and clays distribute their finished products nnd support thousands of prosperous and happy families. Hut because agriculture is so limited In area , confined to narrow strips along our low and scanty streams , our labor so high and Its handiwork so remote from other than tlio local markets , the coal Is mined , the coke i * burned , the rail is rolled , the grain Is grown , the fruit Is gathered in the main for the owners and workers in silver mines nnd smelters , and the proprie tors nnd workmen of the industries and call ings dependent upon tlicm. "Tho reduction of the price of silver to about 70 cents has shut down IK ) per cent of the silver mines of the country and the smelters must soon follow their cvamiile. There are In Colorado today 15,000 idle miners , who know not where to turn If work is not resumed. There will soon bo added to this Idle army of labor 40,000 men f.roin the smelters. The Stone quarries are nearly all shut down , the railway companies are laying off train crews by the score , the foundries nro nearly all out of orders , the farmers and fruit growers will be tarcly paid for the cost of having their crops , the merchants are countermanding their orders , the traveling men for eastern houses seek almost In vain for customers. This Is no cxaRKeratlon. The destruction of the silver industry will devastate the country , as if swept by a cyclone , reaching from the British possessions to the Mexican border line. This sorrowful picture of Colorado , with Us mining Industry destroyed , but rep resents the condition of the other mining states and territories with the same calamity upon them. "If the silver mines shall remain closed , one-half of the American output of lead must bo lost. The greatest bulk of the lead pro duced is taken from silver-bearing ores. It requires the one me.tal , supplemented by the other , to remunerate the lead-silver mine owners. "Not less than ! > 5 per cent of the gold product of the country depends upon the maintenance of the silver Industry. The placer or creek washings , the earliest and most prolific sources of our gold supi iy , are practically exhausted. Cost of 1'roducliig Silver. "Those who contend for the gold single standard willfully mislead you as to the cost of producing silver. We say to you in the most solemn and truthful manner that rc- llaDl'o statistics provo that , including but legitimate items in the account , the silver of Colorado costs by the timeit Is on the mar ket not less than ? 1.2'J per ounce. Like gold iin ii some silver Is produced for much less than its market value , but the average cost of silver is fully the highest price it over brought in markot. "All of the mining states and territories are a debtor class. Stop and consider , men of the cast , how many millions of your money are Invested with us. The funds of > estates of widows and orphans have been loaned on our lands and have built our edifices. Colorado has been a favorite field for such investments. Have the pconlo of any state over proved more punctilious in prompt repayment ? The legislature has en acted laws cruel to Us own people and un rivaled In liberty to the creditor that i10 man might shine or escape payment of u bor rowed dollar. ru "There are held throughout the east hun dreds of milions in railroad stocks and bonds us ; in municipal securities ; in trusts and mort gages , the payment of the greatest body of which depends upon the prosperity of the silver mining country. We of Colorado prldo ourselves on our commercial and financial integrity. No calamity can Induce us to re pudiate one dollar of an honest debt. AH oDf our assets uro at the will of our creditors for their reimbursement. But , ft by bad congressional legislation , if through congress you shall wlpo out the great industry of the section around which : all others cluster for vigor and profit , the values or our proportion will shrink , our business will bo destroyed , our towns and cities will bo largely depopulated and the railroads traversing the western half of the continent will be scut Into bankruptcy. Cor- ; talnly In the facvo of such unmerited inllic- lion you cannot blame us if we are thus deprived of ull ability to meet our obllga- tions.

At noon the market vras feverish. Ono Cntuo of thn Kxcltcmcnt. One of the chief items contributing to the excitement and weakness was a rumor that ono of the Vandcrhllts had been compelled to market n lot of his securities. Inquiry , however , developed Iho fact that a well known trader , In no way contiocted with Vanderbllt , was forced to throw over some 40,000 shares of high priced Vnndorbilts nnd the bears took advantage of the fact to pound the market. The general opinion is that thcro is nothing in the situation to warrant yesterday's and today's breaks. On the contrary among banks and in financial circles a better state of affairs is reported. In the afternoon call money fell to 0@7 and stocks became calmer , assisted by rumors of the taking of f-1,000,000 in pold for Import from I/mdon. About 2 , however , there was renewed selling on a large scale. Burlington broke to 81 % ; St Paul to 5"X ; Hock Island to 01. % at 215. Market was heavy. Notwithstanding the flurry In the stock market today , bank presidents and others occupying positions familiarizing them with current conditions , unanimously agree that the general situation has improved and con tinues to do so. At several of the larger banks it was said today that a considerable amount of cur rency had been received yesterday and this morning. Currency from the Country. Many of the country banks are remitting currency hero nnd getting back some of their bills receivable , which they had redls- counled here three or four weeUs ago , taking advantage , of course , of the rebate m the discount of the unoxplred time. At all the largo banks today it was said that the de mands from out of town customers for ac commodations were lighter than they had been for weeks. Many of the largo uptown banks reported today that they had nil the currency they wanted. The offer of some buuks to pay the express charges on cur rency going Into the country had a very stimulating effect on shipments to this city. The subtreasury was debtor for several hundred thousands of dollars to the clearing house this mornitip for the first time in Iho last week , which showed that the steps > taken by the subtreasury oHlclals to compel the bankers to present their government checks for payment through the clearing house , Instead of ever the treasury counter for cash , had the desired effect. Two or three cases were reported today of country banks , mostly In Pennsylvania , coming into this market as buyers of com mercial paper in a small > wuy , tempted thereto by the high rates and thq fact that they hao. money"to their credit with their correspondents hero. The amount of such purchases In the aggregate Is not largo , but it is said indicate to an easier monetary condition In certain ' yn sections' of the coun try.Note nip Note brokers today reported some buying of commercial paper by three or four of the large banks , but not to any great extent ; the bonks , outside of ono or two well known lenders In that class of business , arcTsiill [ mostly confining their dealings to their own customers.
