Mr. Vilas said this was an additional reason why a new form of bonds should be authorized Mr. Hopkins, of flinole, the Republl- can member of the Committees who voted Inst the resolution, says he will not make A minority report but, will oppone the measure on ‘the floor of the House, “T object t. it for many reasons, sald, “It discredits all other ob:igations of the Government by its stipulation for the payment of the bonds in go.d, and Mf enacted would make it Imponsible for the Government to float any bonds In future without the gold proviso. More- over, to make the bonds payable in gold gives to the holders of them an incentive fo drive wuld toa premium before the bonds mature. Neither do I believe the form of the contract for this {#sue, nor the rolicy of negotiating with private parties for the sale of bonds, can be jus- tifled pr warranted in any way,” Mr, Teller spoke of the enormous profit of 8 per cent. already being realized tn London on American bonds, de sald the Presilent had given no details as ty the Contract with bankers, The Wy nd Meana Committee of the House had trying to get at the facts, but had yet Mund out the names of all the par- tles Interested in the bond contract At first we were told these bonds w have to sell at 23-4 because they on a silver basis, and now they selling in London on a gold basis months ago our bonds sold easily than % per cons. interest.

If these bonds were selling such a handsome profit in London, showed the credit of the Untre! @ had not been so disastrously impaired as the President sought to make (ie ou try belleve. At this point Mr. Sherfhan (Rep., 0.) came forward with another financial measure. He offered it as a substitute to the bill for unlimited silver coinage reported from the Finance Committee vester Mr. Sherman's bill Is_simtlar to the one introduced some time ago, al- though he now gets it directly before the Senate. It provides for bonds at 3 per cent, payable In gold coin, and for the tasue of 1 certificates. Both the bills of Mr. Vins and Mr. Sherman went to the table, Thereupon Mr. Hill (Dem, N.Y.) raised the point ‘that they ought to go on the calendar, where they could be got at, and would’ have the same advan tages as the silver Dillx reported yest day, ‘There was a apirited colloquy, but » hills were left on the table.
