a direct result of the effort which Secre
tary Foster has been making through
Seligman and other American ' bankers
to secure a candid ' consideration of the
silver question by the European govern
ments. ' Communications received at
the - treasury . department indicate a -strong
feeling in France in favor of the
enlarged use of silver, which will prob
ably receive fresh sti mulus from the
declaration of Goschen." .
