FIRST PLANTING ON PEKING WALLS Colonel Daggett, in Command of the Fourteenth Infantry, Says No Braver Deed Was Enacted in Modern Warfare Than the Scaling of the Rampart in the Face of Death OLONEL A. S. DAGGETT, com- mander of the Fourteenth In- fantry, arrived here yesterday on the transport Warren on a short leave of absence. His regiment has the distinction of belng the first to scale the walls of Peking and his regi- mental flags were the first colors planted on the “Walled City.” Colonel Daggett is enthusiastic over the brave acts of his men and stated yester- day that no deed in modern warfare could excel for courage that of his men as they scaled the walls, watched with astonish- ment by the Russian troops, who were dumb with amazement. We arrived about five miles from Pe- king on August 13" sald Colonel Daggett. We camped that night and on the fol- lowing morning were up at sunrise and on our way to ‘the Walled City.” About a third of a mile from the walls a halt was made and the disposition of the troops rranged for the attack. The fire at point became severe from two sec- tions of the wall. Two companies of my regiment were ordered to advance to a bastion that projected from the wall, and they gained the point safely by scatter- hu:‘ and making a rush! one and two at a time, under a heavy tire. Arriving under cover of this bastion we 2st about to see how we could climb the “:;:‘I '?s wvrn rol unprovided with either 2 Of aling ladders we wi adly handicapped.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.—The Senate will continue its discussion of the ship subsidy bill during the first half of the present week, with probable interruptions There probably will be a_movement to | secure night sessions onfhe part of the friends of the shipping bill Monday or Tuesday and other strenuous efforts will be made to secure a vote upon the bill. If it should appear probable that the end | of the discussion is still not in sight Senator Allison will on Wednesday ask | the Senate to take up the bill making apptopriations for the District of Colum- bia for the next fiscal year. This appropriation bill will be debated for several days and when its considera- tion is concluded there will be other ap- | propriadon bills requiring attention.

He will speak at length upon that q tion, and if he should conclude dur- ‘g the day he will be followed by one of 'several extended speeches on the sub- | sidy bill which are still in reserve.

The minority report ‘We object to the passage of this measure: 1. Because it will impose increased burdens upon the gold reserve of the Treasury. To say that it will not is to deny the recognized prin- | ciple of supply and demand. To add the 600,000,000 of siiver dollars which Low act as redemption money for the silver certificates, and are not a charge upon the gold reserve, to the moneys which are redeemable in gold must greatly increase the burdens upon the Treasury reserve. It cannot be safe for a nation fo increase its gold obligations with- out increasing its reserve. 2. Because it will create a new endless chain upon the gold reserve of the Treasury. hy policy of the Government heretofore has been to dimipish the obligations redeemable in gold and thereby prevent runms upon the Treasury. The gold standard advocates have unanimousiy contended that the greenbacks should be re- tired, 50 as to relieve the Government of the necessity and cost of maintaining a gold re- merve. ey contended that the Government should go out of the banking business. This measure is a reversal of that policy. It-creates new obligations upon the reserve; it plunges the Government deeper into the banking busi- | ness. 3. Because old. By making the principal medium of ex- change used by the people redeemabla in goid, | it becomes much easier for the exporter of gold to gather up’obllgations payable in that metal and present them to the Treasury for exchange. No other nation on earth faclli- tates the export of gold. The scramble of the European nations at the present time for gold should demonstrate the necessity for legisla- | tion discouraging instead of encouraging the exportation of that metal. 4. Because it will produce the destruction of silver dollars and - silver certificates as money. When silver dollars are made pay- able in _gold, they become simply promises to . What government would maintain prom- fics o pay Stamped upon ae dear material as silver, when they could be printed upon paper no appreciable cost? Would it not be foolish for the nation to keep invested in promises to pay $250,000.000 (the bullion value of her silver doilars) when she could print them upon paper and save that amount? Nearly every witness that testified before the committee admitted that the measure would ultimately produce a retirement- of the silver dollars and a sale of the same ne bullion. This is a new policy in the treatment of the precious metals. No na- tion on the face df the globe discredits its sil- ver colns by making them simply promises to pay. No government redeems its silver in gold. Why should this nation, which produces one-third of all the siiver of the world, be the very first to etrike down one of its own important industries? 5. Because it will depress the prices of all commodities and property. This measure will make gold do all the work of basic money now done by both gold and silver. We cannot thus increase the burdens upon gold without increasing the demand for the same. The increase in the world's production of gold is not sufficfent to displace the silver stocks in existence. Statistics show that more than 50 per cent of the gold product i3 used in the arts or lost to commerce, which leaves only bout ,000 a year to supply the needs of all christendom. That is fess than 3 per cent of the gold stocks of the world and is no more than the legitimate requirements of an increasing commerce. 6. It is impossible for silver dollars to go to a discount’ so long as they are limited in number, as now provided by law, and henca there is no necessity for this legisiation. As it is impossible for silver dollars as now lm ited by law to deprecfate in value why should we run the hazards of making increased bur endless chain upon the treasury, of facilitat ing exports of gold or of annihilating silver and silver certificates as money and of pro- ducing an era of falling prices? —_— Leaky Senators.
