NCISCO S CALL, DAY, JUNE 21, 1896 GOLD IN ITS RELATIVE RATIO. Hilaire Belloc of Oxford College Gives His Views STRONG MONOMETALLIST | Three Small but Important Eng- lish Classes Favor Silver. BUT NEVER EXPECT 16 TO 1. He T ks That Equal Coinage Would Drive the Yellow Metal Out of This Country. Hilaire Bellce, a university extension lecturer of Oxford University, and, who was invited to this country by tne American Society fcr the Extension of weight in estimating the future conduct of | England. | | The agricultural interest represents of | | course the ola Tory element in English | politics. 1t is remarkable that the Lanca- | shire eotton spinners, whom I have men- {tmned as their allies in this matter, are | the oldest and strongest opponents of the il:mded aristocracy. They are the classes | of whom Cobden was the spokesman, and they have been the backbone of the Liberal party since the reform of 1832. i class, the garrison and civil employes India, drawn as they are from every class, and, in the case of the civil employ | Tesenting the best-lested intel { England, permeates the English elcetorate | both above and below. It must not be understood that these e classes have vet attained anything e a control of English public opinion, | but I bave quoted them as forming the | | three prominent exceptions to the English | | opinion in favor of gold monometallisr. | In the case of ,the Lancashire cotton spin- | mers, they are a class whose importance | wiil continue to increase. | | _In arecent course of lectures that Ide- | |livered in Oidham, Lancashire, to | | purely artisan audiences, I found them | well aware of the dangers in which they | stood from Indian competition, and almost | as ready as theiremployers to seek a solu- | | tion in a bimetallic agreement. | ] All interests of the parties above men- | tioned, notably the commercial interests | of London, the whole of the banking | { world, and, I think one may say, the uni- | vers are in favor of the gold standard pure and simple. | But t e point for Americans to remem- ber is that the power of the three classes which [ have quoted is increasing, and is | the more important under English polit cal co ons, which will not easily per- mit whole mass of the people to dis- | cuss so hirhiy technical a question as that | of the currency. | Hlw ed at what highest expecta- tionsrun in England in regard to the | ratio of gold to silver, I would s tol. | I shouid personally think that the putting | | | | | I | | | l(l | th ALAMEDA CLUB'S ANNUAL REGATTA, Championship Races June 28 in the Estuary. on ROWERS TRAINING HARD Start and Finish Will Be at the Foot of Chestnut Street. BOCKMAN'S NARROW ESCAPE. Local Barge Crews Won't Row at Stockton Unless Individual Prizes Are Given. One of the chief events of the year in | rowing circles across the bay will be the annual championship rowing races to be held by the Alameda Boating Club on the Alameda estuary, June 28. All arrangements have been completed for tne affair by Messrs. Creigh and Schumacher, and as the win- | ners of the different events are to be the club’s representatives at the Stockton re- ta on July 4 some very exciting races will undoubtedly be rowed. This regatta will be the largest ever held on the Alameda side of the bay. The course will be one mile and a half with a turn, and the start and finish will be iuade from the club’s house, at the foot of Chest- nut streef. The first event on {he programme will be the junior outrigger skiff race, for the junior championship of the estuary. There will be two prizes for thisevent, gold and silver medals. Owing to the large number of entries in this race it will be divided intc eight heats and in all eight separate races will be rowed. The following have entered: C. Ayers, 5 Hancock, A. Bangs, 0. Anderson, Webb, Frank Walton, W. Lubbock, G. Hansen, W.B. Hinchman and L. A. Mervy. The next event will be a senior outrigger race for the senior championship of the estuary and a diamond medal. Dr. Cecil Dennis and Fred Ayers are entered in this race. This coutest should prove very ex- hilarating as both men are crackerjack | ff rowers and each has long been anx- ious to try conclusions with the other. Dr. Dennis is exceedingly desirous to meet the men again that defeated him at El Campo, where he lost on a_foul, and if he defeats Ayers Ins wisn will be gratified, for he will then be eligible to row at the Stockton regatta, Two very evenly matched crews will row for the championship and a silver cup. Crew 1 is composed of the following: ¥red Ayers, stroke; W.G. Hanson, for- wardwaist; A. C. Webb, s 5 Steinmetz, pbow, and A, Jrew No. 2 has the following personnel: Dr. C. Dennis, stroke; W. Lubbock, aist; Frank Walton, forwardwaist; . B. Hancocis, bow, and W. B. Hinchnan, The contestants are assiduously training for the different events, and can be seen on the estuary night and morning plying we frail crafts with vigor. The Alameda Boating Club are stirring 1emselves to make this, their first im- Hilaire Bellog, the University Lecturer From Oxford College, England, Who Is a | portant regatta for years, a briliiant suc- Strong Mo nometallist. mmer on medieval history, was at the Occidental yesterday, having completed a hasty tour through Catifornia. He left for New York on the evening train, accom- panied by his wife. Mr. Belloc is a graduate of Oxford and bears the distinction of being president of the Oxford Union, the great debating club of which Gladstone was once president and over which such men as Lord Dufferin and Lord Balisbury have since presided. He has lectured extensively in England, and is a close student of political economy especially that of the North of England, the industrial part. Mr. Belloc says he is a strong monomet- allist. When asked for an explanation of the money question as it exists in England he dictated the following: The first question that presents itself to an Englishman is, Has there been an ap- preciation of gold or has there not? The intelligence of England is divided fairly equally upon that main proposition. Granted that there has been an appre- ciation of gold, what is the position of the average Englishman in the face of the | change? Itisasfollows: He believes that | 1t would be possible by international agree- | ment to introduce the double standard | again. There are two main qualifications to this belief. First, he honestly believes it ex- tremely ditficult to say exactly what ratio the monetization of silver should be given. 1 cannot remember any person of stand- ing who dreams of putting it as high as 16 to 1, thougn it is, of course, apparenttc all educated men that the demand created by such a change would raise silver well | above its present value. | The second qualification is one that| must be characterized as a matter of Na- | tional or personal interest. The same 1is| true of the Nevada man in this country as | of the Englishman with Argentine inter- ests. First, England is known by most educated Englishmen to be the great gold- | crediting nation of the world, and, there- | fore, even if there has been an appreciation | of gold England would on the whole ben- efit from it. The second pointis: During the last eighteen months there has been a singular revival of prosperity in England, as was shown by the last Conservative budget. X Agfmcr point that makes Englishmen in favor of the gold standard is tbat Eng- land historically is known to have led the way to a gold standard and to have pros- pered under it during this century far more than those Continental nations that delayed the adoption by half a century. There are three very important ciasses of people in England that are in favor of the bimetailic understanding: One— The agricultural interest, because it is hoped that it would raise the prices of agricul- tural products. Two—The Lancashire cotton-spinners, because their _lrade with India suffers from the uncertainty of ex- change, and especially from the competi- tion of the labor which is paid in the sil- ver rupee in India, Three—As a class all those who are engaged in governine India itself—civil service oflicers, soldiers and others; these men have their salaries paid in the silver rupee, which is no injustice to them while in India, but which is of steadily decreasing value when sent as remittances to their families in England. Those three classes, the agricultural, the Lancashire cotton spinners and those in the Indian service, while they do not rep- resent anything like a voting majority, . prvertheless must be given enormous { | | | | | | | the little people go through all their work | in the foreign tongue. | of the school connected with the French of silverat 16 to 1, free coinage would have an effect not very different from the depreciation of the currency. 1 cannot sze how vou could avoid the action of *Gresham’s law” and the gradual exhaustion of gold even if you were to confine its action to the American product, which 1 should imagine to be ex- tremely difficult in the face of the ease with which an article of such small bulk | conld be smuggled. Itappears to me that the enormously increased activity of the silver mines would necessarily keep the ratio of 16 to 1 an artificial one far above | the market value of silver. Hivarre BELLOC. THLKED LIKE NATIVES, Children of Two French Schools Hold Commencement Exercises. | | | | New Phonomimic System, Which Is Being Adopted Over in France. | [a The children of two French schools held their commencement exercises yesterday afternoon at 1518 Clay street, and a number of parents and friends were present to see 1/Alliance Francaise, an organization for propagating the French tongzue, has a number of afterncon classes in the various public schools of this City, to which chii- dren of both French and American parent- age are admitted. It was the class of the Le Conte School which held its exercises yesterday, supplemented by the children Reformed Church, Mme. Marshall is the precepiress of both classes. The work exhibited consisted of songs, recitations, little comedies and a new way of Jearning to read French, which is being adopted in the public schiools of France. This method, which 1s described as “phono-mimic,” teaches children to con- nect certain sounds with letters by means of question and answer. “What is the sound for admiration ?”’ asked the teacher. “Ab,” replied all the little ones, pointin to the first letter of the alphabet, whicg in_ French wes the rizht thing to do. *‘What sound expresses horror?”’ And this time came a long-drawn *“*0,” and the little fingers all indicated the big round letter on the screen. The visitors were a #ood deal interested in_the working of the system, which resulted in even American children pronouncing the French sounds perfectly. M. Levi, the president of 1’Alliance, alter hearing the clever work done by the children, made a speech, saying that no member of the French colony could now say he was unable to have his children taught French and that it was his hope to see the language studied more and more. Among the children who recited and spoke with fluency were: Georges Ticolet, Alice Brisou, Marie Lacazette, Lou Dehoy, Jean Gourseau, Louie Robert, Berthe Savart, Helene Lavergne, R. Pene, Neliie Bowlin and Lydia Mollett. About fifty children took part in_the class work. Mlle. Seeli and Mlle. Villemejane, two young ladies who donate their services to ropagating the knowledge of the French anguaze, were warmly thanked by Mme, Marshall for the valuable help they had given. AN O _ | rowing frater cess, They e xpect a large crowd of the ity from San Francisco to | beon hand to witness the different events, and no doubt eome of the San Franciszo oarsmen will give exhibition races. | The Alameda Boating Club now has a | membership of fifty and is steadily grow- mg. S.J. Pembroke, the champion out- rigger-skiff oarsman of the coast and an unceasing worker for the advancement of | rowing bere, is a_prominent member of | the club., He will defend the club colors | at the Stockton regatta in the outrigzer | events. An Eastern oarsman of considerable note | recently paid a visit to the Alameda Club, | and said that the Alameda estuary was without doubt the finest boat-racing | course in the United States, and that eventually it would be lined with boat clubs, as soon as the canal was completed and the water deepened. An accident betell Johnny Bockman, the well-known oarsman of the Ariel Bout | Club of this city, while out training the | other evening for the junior outrigger race at the coming Stockton regatta. He was returning from a “spin” up to Hunt- er's Puint, and when just abreast of the ill-fated ship Blairmore the outrigger on the left side of the boat gave way and Mr. Bockman, losing his balance, took a header into the cold waters of the bay. When the boat tipped over he had his feet tightly strapped to the foot rests, and it was some littie time before he could ex- ~ HEALD'S Business College, 24 Post St., San Francisco.

A GARDEN PARTY. | The Ladies of Belvedere Gave an Out- ing in Aid of Their Church Fund. The ladies’ church organization of Bel- vedere gave a delightful garden party in that locality yesterday for the benefit of their Presbyterian churéh building fund.

Miss Minnie Flynn; | contralto solo, Mrs. Fould; male quartet, | Messrs. Stone, Coffin and Somers; solos by Miss Colman and Frank Matheau. A number of launches and boats belong- ing to the yacht cluvs darted back and forth over the quiet surface of the little | cove with the guests who desired to vary their day’s outing with a sail on the bay. At 5o'clock the yachtsmen conveyed the City visitors across to Tiburon, and the easant picnic in “Beautiful Belvedere’’ as over. | L. NEW TO-DAY.
