THE SILVER CRISIS. The India Council Realize the Mistakes in June. BIMETALLISM LOOMS UP. Bearing of the Indian Crisis Upon the Future Finance of the Country. Th* following article, taken fro® th* Maw Orleana Time»-Demoorat, i« the ablest and moat significant explanation we have seen of the acute silver crisis ■which now paralyses the business of India. The time when bimetallism will be forced upon the world appears to be near at hand, and the logic of events is mov ing mountains of difficulty which mere argument could not budge. The cable brings us from Cal outs an item of news that is of supreme im portance to the political, social and eco nomic interests of the civilised world. Wa refer to the following dispatch, which appeared in our issue of yester day: “The government announces that in view of the beginning of the export season it does not propose to maintain tiie minimum rate for council bills, and that offers of Is. to Is. d. will be con sidered on their merits. Amazement has been caused by this step, and busi ness is completely disorganised.” In order to fully understand the sig nificance of this news it is necessary to briefly review the history of the silver question injits bearings upon the Indian currency. In 1803 France enacted her bimetallic law, whioh provided that the French mints should be opened to the free and unlimited coinage of both gold and sil ver at the ratio of 15)£ to 1. For seventy years the French mints and the mints of the Lstiu Union, after it was formed, remained open to both metals on the terms prescribed by the law of 1803 There then existed a stable par of exchange between England, with her single gold standard, and the silver standard countries of the Erst, upon whose trade hangs the very life of her commerce. In 1873 occurred an event whioh changed all this, and iwhich, in its ulti mate results, reduced all commerce be tween the Occidental and the Oriental na tions to the level of the most reckless gambling. One of the most sinister con sequences of the Franco-German war is to be found in the immense currency changes which it brought to i's train. Germany, dizzied by the glitter as the $1,000,000,000 indemnity which she exacted from France, determined to de monetize silver and adopt; the single gold standard, ja«t as in 1840 sb* had de monetized gold and adopted the single silver standard. Francs was then sore from her tremendous defeat, and espe cially from the loss of her well beloved provinces. It was not unnatural that she should throw all possible obstacles in the way of Germany’s success. Accord ingly the mints of the Latin Union were dosed to the free coinage of silver. This action may justly be considered the most important event of modern times, if we take into account the tremendous changes in the lines and currents of com merce which it has brought about. The effects of this mighty change were at first but little observed by the casual thinker of the day, but the most far seeing economists of the time predicted that the ultimate results would involve a greater waste of human labor than was caused by the Napoleonic wars. In the years between the mutiny of 1857 and the closure of the Latin Union mints, the East Indian government had contracted an immense debt in England, the proceeds of which had been em ployed in railways, canals and other use ful public works. The interest on this debt, amounting to about £15,000,000 per annum, has, of course to be paid in gold. India is a single-silver standard country, gold having ceased to be a legal tender in 1834. The unit of value in British In dia is the rupee, a coin weighing 180 grains, of which 165 are pure silver, and 15 grains are alloy. Os course all the taxes are collected in the rupee and its subdivisions, and in it the civil servants of the government receive their pay. Up to the closure of the Latin Union mints, the rupee exchanged, approximately, for -"3s, English, and the fluctuations were never sufficient to be of any practical moment. But with the closure of the mints of the Latin Union and of the United States the world entered upon an entirely different condition of things. Silver, thns shut ont from access, to the world’s controlling mints, steadily de- A GOOD BUILDING UP x of a run-down system can be accomplished by tho usa of Dr. T ■ Pierces Golden Medical Dis-fl SI J| covery.

The condition of the In dian treasury became more and more full of embaraasment and danger. A* the gold price of silver declined, it re quired every year a great quantity of ru pees to defray the annual interest charge of £15.000,000 which had to be mat in London. The officials, whose salaries were payable in rupees, and whose fami ilies had to be kept in England, found that, to all intents and purposes, their inaosaes had been diminished by ont half. As the crisis became more interne the agitation of the official class in creased, and this pressure was reinforced by the angry complaints of the vast mass of British traders who found that, in ninety-nine cases out of every hundred, prospective profi's were turned into losses by the depreciations in the ex changeable value of the silver currency in wnioh they bad to take their pay Many great London banks were ruined by accepting deposits payable in gold and employing the money in long loans in silver countries. When the loans ma tured and the proceeds were invested in sterling, the principal had shrunk by one-half. In the spring of 1803 the Indian Coun cil took decisive action. The govern ment mints were closed to the coinage of silver on private account, and it was an nounced that no drafts on the Indian treasuries against tbe taxes collected for the payment of tbe interest on the ster ling debt would be sold at a less rate than Is. 4d. per rupee, which is equivalent to about 44%d. for bar silver in the London market. The next aot in this great in ternational drama was the repeal of the Sherman act. The Indian mints had been annually coining about 50.000,000 ounces of silver, while we had annually purchased about tbe same quantity un der the provisions of the Sherman law. The Indian government hoped that by closing the mints to coinage on private account they would be able to give the rupee a scarcity value, and thus main tain the ratio of exchange which they had established. The event has com pletely falsified their calculations. Some of the causes of the monumental failure are very obscure, while others lie on the surface. Tbe horded coin is now coming back into circulation, and the same thing is true in China, where boards of trade have resolved to use the English coin in stead of the yen. This reduces tbe business with India to gambling again, and makes it exceed ingly hazardous for English merchants engaged in trade with the orient. This state of affairs has accelerated the growth of puplic opinion in England and even Caprivi, the Prime Minister of Germany, is a convert. Lord Salisbury, discussing the India loan in the English house of lords, not long ago, declared that inter national bimetallism was swiftly and surely coming. The return of the con servatives to power would hasten tbe event,?m the leaders of that party are pronounced bimetallists. The Times- Democrat advocated the repeal of the Sherman act last fall because it believed that to be the only safe course, but it bails with pleasure the prospect of a speedy return to bimetallism, the de parture from which twenty years ago brought so great a disaster in its train.

A wiry, greasy and dirty negro named Billups gave Deputy Sheriffs Turner and McConnell a little exercise yesterday morning. He had been arrested for stealing tuikiys and was also wanted for breaking open Mr. M. L. Troutman’s smokehouse and removing some fine hams which he subsequently sold. He was taken from jiil to Esquire Lumpkin’s office for trial. On the way be made a dash for liberty, but was soon caught and brought before the magis trate. A crowd followed and the prison er, who was quite talkative, entertained them with his theory of the case and things in general. When asked whether he was ready for trial he said: ‘‘No, I’ll jes let it go ’long.” The crowd smiled audibly and the jus tice said, “Do you waive examination*?” “I’ll jeslet it go ’long till I can be tried right at the big court.” There was a laugh at Mr. Lumpkin’s expense, but he good naturedly suggest ed that the prisoner might be tried right by that court. “I want to get up my witnesses. I ain’t got no witnesses. They say I done something an’ I ain’t done it.” Then he proceeded to discourse the crowd on the jail in an interesting fashion. “If they take me to Mr. Craws Moore, I’ll treat him right. They won’t hafter put the lash on me to make me work. I’d rather be with Mr. Moore than be in jail. Theys lice in jail got stingers like a wasp. Take up a collection and gimme a nickel apiece to get some ‘cruel’ oint ment.” At this there was a burst of laughter. 7 he negro’s tongue ran like a flutter-mill and he told how the meat had been left to him by his dead mother. When asked why be sold the heirloom so cheap he said In had to sell things to these town people for nothing or he couldn’t sell it. He was taken back to jail in default of bond.

Special to Th* Tribune. Atlanta Jan. 27.—The governor re turned thia morning and got down to his office at 9 o'clock, a* if nothing had hap pened. He waa soon up to bis ears in work, but during the course of the morn ing found time to talk about the trip to Waycross. “There is not much to say about it,” said be, “except this, there was an evident indication on the part of a lot of rowdies arid roughs to disregard the au thority of the laws in this state and to give a disgraceful exhibition on Georgia soil. I determined to prevent it, using what means I had on hind. Os course you know that there was finally no at tempt made to fight on Georgia soil and chat settled it. “I had positive information from un doubted soured*,” said the governor,” “that the fight was to come off in Geor gia in case the courts prevented it occur ring in Jacksonville. Three men wbo went to Jacksonville voluntarily to as certain the situation, wired that It bad been decided that the fight would take place in Georgia, and it was on thia information that I acted. Yesterday morning, the day of the fight, there were a lot of telegraph instruments put off at St. Mary’s River, showing that my information wascoireot. I had the sher iff and a squad < f men at Sc. Mary’s, and for every two m les along the road I had adepucy sheriff and a squad. They had instructions in o ise any train passed to follow it and prevent auy fight in Geor gia. There was no especial guard sent to Cumberland, but there were lookouts tiere, and had there been auy indication of a fight taking place wo would have been able to have sent soldiers at short n itioe. I went to Waycross because I thought that ths bast place to superin tend operations. ‘■l know some of the newspapers have criticised mu, but I don’t care about that at all. I did what I considered noy duty, and I am only glad that it was not neces sary to prevent the fight by force.” If you are off wed a bottle of Salvation O'l, without wrapper or defaced or mu tdated, don’t buy it at any price, you may be sure that there is something wrong; it may be a worthless or danger ous counterfeit.

PECKHAM’S CHANCES. The Fight Will Be Short aid Sharp Confirmation. Washington, Jan. 26.—Mr. Pugh chairman of the senate judiciary com mittee, said he thought it likely that the Peckham nomination would be saken up at the committee’s meeting on Monday, and intimated that it might be disposed of at that meeting. This encourages the opponents of Mr. Peckham to claim that an adverse re port on the nomination by the commit tee is certain. Mr. Pugh himself is known to be opposed to confirmation, and it i* assumed that he would not pre dict speedy action unless he felt well as svred of a result favorable to his viow of the case. The fight against the nomination is taking a new turn. Mr. Peckham is disappearing from th® contest and the president is coming in for criticism. All of the talk heard now is what senators term the “moaning” of the nomination. This has been true conspicuously on t.ie Republican side of the chain bars Mr. Peckham’s abilities and high standing wero conceded, but the opinion was ex pressed that tho president was Hsing him as a club with which to knock down the New York senators.

Mr. Hill haa, of coni**, been quick to detect thia fooling in the senate, and is playing upon it with effect.

That Threatea Tariff Legislation. Washington, Jan. 28. —Representa- tive Haines, of New Jersey, says that the Demoorats opposed to the features of th* Wilson bill will get together soon and decide whether a motion will be made to recommit the bill or to lay it on the table, or to strike out the enacting clause. Mr. Haines says the meeting ■will be informal. He is inclined to think a motion to lay it on the table will be made. Mr. Haines asserts that if the four Democrats of Louisiana who are dissat isfied with the sugar schedule will vot* against the bill, it will make the opposi tion strong enough to lay the Wilson bill on the table, or to take other ad verse action. Members of the ways and means committee do not credit th* claims of Mr. Haines. They say that a motion to lay on the table would not b* in order under the special rule. But a motion to recommit would be in order, and it is this motion that the members of the committee feel some concern about, as they say. that Democrats could vote for it without going on record against the bill as a whole. It is r.ot be lieved a motion to recommit will com e from the Republican side, as it would raise party feeling and thus defeat its intended purpose. Filled Him with Buckshot* Palm Beach, Fla., Jan. 26.—John Btilliana shot and killed R. R. Kyler at this place, emptying eight buckshot into his left shoulder, death ensuing immedi ately. The difficulty occurred over the children of the two families. Taylor, the night before, patroled the street in front of Stillians’ house, cursing and threatening his life. Stillians was not armed then, but prepared himself later, and when Taylor attempted the previous escapade, Stillians stepped to the front door and fired two shots, one of which took effect as above stated. The coro ner’s jury returned a verdict of justifia ble homicide. IN NO HURRY. Mr. Cleveland Allow, tho Anxloue to Walt a Lohj Time. Washington, Jan. 27.—The fact has been noted that the president is sending very few nominations to the senate these days, and that confirmations by the sen ate are being made slowly. There has been a most marked falling off in both respects since the rejection by the senate of the nomination of Judge Hornblower for justice of the supreme court of the United States, and of J. Scott Harrison for the surveyor of th* port of Kans J City. So far, during the week, the president has sent to the senate only one nomina tion, that of Mr. Peckham, to be asso ciate justice, and while the senate has held two or three brief executive ses sions only a very few confirmations have been announced. It is also a well known fact that there is scarcely an important committee of the senate which has not one or more nominations hung up there, because of the objections of senators and others. A large number of nominations from New York, one from Missourio, South Carolina, Illinois and many other states, which were made before the Christmas holidays, remain still in the committee. Appraiser Bunn, of New York; Col lector Simmons, of North Carolina, and the Topeka postmaster are included in the list of appointments of long stand ing which have not received attention. It is the general belief about the senate that the nominations will come in more rapidly after the Peckham nomination is disposed of. INMATES BURNED. An Insane Asylum Destroyed With Fear ful Fatalities. Boone, la., Jan. 25.—The building on the Boone county poor farm, in which the incurably insane were confined, was burned at 10 o’clock and eight of the nine inmates were burned to death. Only one woman, Mrs. Hibbard, es caped from the burning building and gave the alarm to Steward Holcomb, who was in the main building adjacent. It was then too late to save the insane people and the main building was saved only by the greatest effort. The stew ard says he banked the fires in the fur nace about 9 o’clock, and does not know how the fire originated unless from a de fective flue. The dead are: Tommy Tucker, John Annasniggs, Anna Soder burg, Christine Andersoh, Christine Pe terson, Mrs. Scott, Tom Leaser and Jo sepn Craig. xc n iii Accidental. Pensacola, Fla., Jan. 24.—The coro ner’s jury summoned to inquire into th* cause of Mamie Hall’s death, the woman who was killed in No. 18, a house of ill repute, rendered a verdict that the de ceased came to her death from a gunshot wound accidentally inflicted by a pisi 1 in the hands of Mamie Harrington.

The Work Will Be Completed for SI,OOO Less Than Was Calculated. It has been frequently asserted by par ties who ought to know better, that the new water works cost a great deal more chan the estimate first submitted. The following statement from the Water Works Committee shows that our superb new plant has so far only cost about two thirds of the estimate, and will be com pleted for about SI,OOO under it. Editor Tribune. Dear Sir—As there have been so many false rumors in regard to the cost as the new water works (for what reason we are unable to say) the committee would re spectfully ask that you publish the fol lowing statement of estimate and expen ditures of new works: In changing the original rdute of the pipe line (on which the estimate of the superintendent was base< ) to come by North Rome, there will be an additional cost for (pipe and laying same of about $2,500, whioh is not included in this esti mate. The pumps were bought under a guar antee, and not to be paid for until they were thoroughly tested. The committee promised the council when the last appropriation was made tbat they would pump water before the year was out. When the water is turned on to the city in March we feel confident that there is not a good citizen of Rome but will be proud of the new works. Until then we await their judgment. It was the sense of the council when the work was started that it should be arranged so that it could be paid for out of the annual appropriations. This be ing the case, there will be no necessity for increasing the taxes next year above one per cent. W. J. Griffin, J. F. McClure, - W. A. Wright, Committee. estimated cost of new watkb works.
