EXCHANGE WAS QUESTION 'Senator Kxplainn Views Aired in Personal letter, and Says He Has So Iesire to Indicate Course of Congress. . WAPHIN'OTON". Dog. 22. Upferrinn to the publication of a letter written' by .Mm on the finanrial question to Sir '.Moreton Frewen. Senator Teller said to day that he had no Intention of reviving the silver question; hut that his only purpose had been to call attention to the present exchanpe conditions between America and Europe on the one side, and India on the other. "The question of exchange. " he said, 'is one of world-wide importance, and there has come to be such a divergence between prices in the jrnld-using and the sllver-usinir countries that the situation Is (trowinK somewhat acute. It is so much in evidence that any one who ftives the least attention to financial questions must observe It. Hence I make no apol ogy for my reference to it in a personal letter to Mr. Frvwen. '"I do not see." he continued, "why any of the members of the monetary commission should be astonished In my utterances, as some of them are repre sented by the newspapers to have been; as my letter did not purport to be written on behalf of. or to express the opinion of. the commission. For the last 12 years I have corresponded more or less with Mr. Frewen as to the monetary conditions of Europe, and the condition of exchange between Europe and the I'nlted States and Asia. He is a itentle man well-informed on all of these ques tions. Merely a Discussion. "When he visits the United States he always calls on me and we have discussed these questions very freely. "I did say In my leter to him that the commission would hear him at the proper time, and I have no doubt it will. I was Justified in this because the commission had sent a portion of Its membership to ' Europe In search of information as to the monetary systems of the world, and the condition of commerce md finance of those countries. "The members who went to Europe cer tainly acquired a fund of information that will be useful, not only to the com mission, but to -the country t large. I practically stated that I was speaking for myself s to what I supposed the commission would do. I have understood that the object of this commission is primarily to obtain Information as to the monetary condition of the world, and ul timately present that Information to Congress, with or without its recom mendations as it may deem proper. Did Not Prophecy. "I did not indicate that the commission was considering, or would consider, the Goschen plan for small notes of 10 shill ings or 20 shillings; nor that It was in favor of It. Goschen was a monomellaist of the extreme type. His proposition was based on the idea that the small notes, legal tender for 10 only, would , . .iiv... u mH ttiat would IIIUKO LI .-.: ui - enable the Government to accumulate ! gold. This was not acceptea Dy tno sil ver people, either in Kurope or the United States. Personally, I think there is suf ficient merit in the Goschen plan to Jus tify the commission in considering It. "As a member of the commission I do not propose to attempt to Interfere with the legislation since IS, which estab lished the gold standard in this country. I consider that question settled for t least a generation: but even though the finances of the United States be fixed, the question of exchange between this country and others is not settled, and I don ot believe that the commission Is barred from Its consideration."
