His Repeated Assertions Concern ing India Wheat Proven False. HON. JAMES ... . ........................ . - I t i / “ '»' •’•»«,- 'T - , • • • BRYCE SPEAKS. Den a!s by Members of the English A â iw t ï Parliament and a Prominent London Merchant HdOurio < r In the spee»*h delivered by W illiam Jem: ■ g* Bryan to the farmer« of New York assembled at Chautauqua, the In dia wheat fake was revamped by the •ilver candidate for president. The as sertion made by Mr. Bryan in his Om aha debate last May that the E ng lish speculators could drive great bar gain« in buying silver and trading it for India wheat to the detriment of the American farmer was reiterated and embellished by his fervid imagination «o as to create the impression that the -decline of silver has made India the most formidable competitor of the American wheat and cotton growers. A s usual. Mr. Bryan talked at random without taking the trouble to acquaint h im self with the actual facts. The Bee now has the facts and the figures that effectually explode Mr. B ryan's India fake. Over two months -ago the editor of the Bee directed a per sonal inquiry on this subject to Hon. Ja m es B ry.e, who is now and has for many years been a member of P arlia ment and was a member o f the B n ti.h board of trade. Responding to th is letter, under date of August 1. Mr. B ryve says: "You are quite right in thinking that B ritish merchants gain nothing at all from the closing of the Indian mints. T he sharp competition. especially of the Hindoo native merchants, cuts down their profits and they lose heavily on th e exchange be tween India and E ng land in turning into English gold the silver prices they receive for the goods th ey export to India. The export of food stuff- from ludia has not. 1 gather, in creased during the last few years and the closing of the mints has not increased it. Manchester and our manufacturers generally complain that business with India is unprofitable. Our cotton indus try is at pre—nt greatly depressed. So B ritain at least caius nothiug. You will, therefore, be safe in denying that there h a s l»een. or is. any bouus or benefit to British merchants or manufacturers.** This letter has been supplement««! by 7*rof. Bryce with an article prepared by h is brother. J. Annan Bryce, a very prominent London merchant, who was for many years a resident of India. Mr. J . Annan Bry««e says: “For Mr. Rowe w ater’s guidance I have made up the annexed statement, which «how s in paraPel columns the exports of ■wheat from the United States. Argen tine. Russia and India np to 1873 be- f«»re the fall in silver and ru{«ee ex- -chauge became pronounced. You will -observe that while the export* from the United States. Russia and Argentine are on the whole increasing, those from In dia are falling off. anti that in the year IStC the eximrts from India were the same as in the year 1877. O f coarse it does not do to reason on Individual years, as there may be special circumstances, such as famines, to account for very short years. For instance. 1878 and 1879 were the years of the great fam ine in India and 1892 was the year of tb ** famine in Russia. I ► vwling the last twenty year« into pe- T ia d a o f five years ea«’h. yon will see that during the last thr*e five-year periods the -exports front India have been falling ><ff. whiie those fn m the United State*. Ar gentine and Russia have been increas ing. although all the while rupee ex change hn»* been steadily falling with wlver. The figures prove conclusively a s regards Indian wheat, which bus alw ays been the great bogy with the American silver man. that the India ex port has bad nothiug to do with the fall o f silver or rupee exchange. The stiver man would be more sensible if be were to take alarm at the growing ex port* from Argentine and from Russia. But be could make nothing of the silver argument here, for neither Russian nor Argentine exchange depend* on silver. Both countries, during the whole of the perks! embraced in nty statement, had for the basis of their currency and of course foreign exchange an inconvertible paper currency and not either silver or <«dd. “ Altogether the facts illustrate the •nundnes* of Mr. Rosewater’» conclusion that the fall iu pri«-ea of commodities is due to more economical production and transport. In India, in Russia and in Argentine wheat exi«ort* became possi ble not because the exchange value of rupee, the rouble or the dollar fell, but because railw ays were built into districts previously inaccessible. In India the providing of railway facilities stimulat«*d the extension o f irrigation. In the Punjab, for instance, many millions of acres were brought into cultivation under irrigation a* soon as the opening of the railw ay to Karachi made the export pos sible. But in India there no longer remains any large new field to be opened up. snd in most of the wheat-prodacing districts which depend on irrigation I believe as much water is now taken out o f the rivers as they can give. Ameri ca therefore need not fear India much in the future, even if silver and rujs-e were likely to go lower, which they are not ” The statistical exhibit accompanying this statem ent is exhaustive ami <-or»- ▼incing in support of the conclusion* arrived at by Mr. Bryce.
