introduced by Senator MORRILL, and without the erasures made by the Committee on Finance. Mr. JOHN H. RHOADES offered the following resolution as a substitute: Resolved, That we do not regard with approval the numerous bills introduced into Congress looking to the free coinage of silver, or a largely increased issue of silver certificates based upon an increased coinage of silver, owing to the fact that we deem free coinage, in the absence of an international agreement for a bi-metallic standard of currency, a dangerous experiment, and likely to seriously disturb the ratio of value at present existing between gold and silver; while the Government having adopted the policy of providing a medium of exchange in the shape of silver certificates, in addition to the current supply of gold and silver, legal tender notes, gold certificates and National currency in circulation, great care should be exercised in the arbitrary increase of silver certificates, and such issue be confined to the actual needs of the country, and to an amount sufficient only to supply the void caused by the annual withdrawal from circulation of National currency, and the natural increase of population. Otherwise they may eventually become a glut upon the market, leading to forced redemption on the part of the Government or the holders at the then current market value of silver bullion, to say nothing of the attendant evils in the shape of inflation while the process of issue goes on. We regard the original measure presented by Secretary WINDOм based upon commercial value of silver bullion as the more desirable of any of the bills to which our attention has been called. Mr. ST. JOHN moved as an amendment to the substitute of Mr. RHOADES, that the whole subject be postponed until the decision of the caucus of the Republican members of Congress was made known, and that the President be authorized to call a special meeting of the Chamber to further consider the subject. This motion was adopted. The Chamber then adjourned.
