r i I i t i i ii i.t TUE 1IONK1 A'lY CONFKKEXt'E In an interview with. Hon J U McC'reary o Kentucky who baa re'urned from the International Monetary Conference lattly held at Brussels, he says: "I think the International Monetary Conference, evervthinir considered, waa great success," said lie. "Twenty nation were represented, a much larger number than has ever asfcmbtad before to consult on monetary questions. At the conference in 1;7 only twelve nations were represent ed. and at the conference of MX only thirteen nations were represented when the conference first asscniu ef. "The interest taken by the various na tions is shown by the fact that when the session was called to order every delegate was in his seat. I have attended many conventions on different subjects, but I have never before seen all the deleijati present at the first meeting in all there were lifty-tbree d'-leate. six of them beinjr from America. 1 he political character ut the American delegate was four republi c ins and two democrats. 'l ha sessions continued four weeks. We n e' only every other day. This was abso lutely necessary, because the delegates spoke difF-rent languages. The proceedings were translated into hnirlisli and I- rench, and on the day between meetings all the delegates could examine and understand what had been done, r rench wag the otKcial I; guago of the conference, but the presiding oliicer, .Mr Montillore, spoko both Knirlisli nnd French fluently, and rendered the American delegation, the members of which wero not thoroughly conversant with trench, all the- assistance he could 1 no business ot the conference was con ducted according to a program agreed upon wtorc me coniereace opened. "the importance of the conference was shown by the admission of the delegates, with scarcely an exception, that the mone tary situation in the wor J irave serious disquietude and perhaps threatened disaster nnu that tho world s monetary system should be altered in tho direction of a greater use of silver. ono ot the minor plans ollerod was adopted because they wero thought not to beproperor adequate remedies for the existing evils. The strongest gold niono- melullists, desirous ns they were to accept some of tno 'palliatives,' so as to block the way to international bimetallism, were compelled to admit that these 'p iliiatives' were merely makeshifts and C3uld not be relied on when seriously tried. "After a number of meetings and a free interfiling,) of opinions, the delegates from twenty nations unanimously ngreed, on motion of tho Italian minister (one of tde ablest members of the conference), that the importance of the subjects considered and the prospects of a favorable result made it necessary to meet again in May 30, i8i);t. "There can be no doubt that tho free use of silver us a coin metal at the ratio to gold to betixed by an agreement between the great commercial nations of tiie world would very greatly promote tho prosperity of the people of all the countries of the world. An agreement should bo made, if possible, looking toward international bi lnetalism, sons to secure unrestricted coin ngs of gold and silver into money of full debt pajing power at n fixe I ratio i i coinage common to all the agreeing powers. Host of the delegates cxprcised themselves lis in favor of the ratio of silver to irold of i i'i to l. mat is the existing ratio in K irnpe. Personally I prefer the ratio of 10 to 1. which has been the ratio in the i niteti Mates since Is H. " The work of the conferen ' already per ir ue i cannot in any event i.ui to prove id g:oit value, became it has placed before tho world, familiarizing the people with the sarious monetary situation now being felt by many nations. While tb" nations ut Kurope through their delegates see-nod willing to admit tuat the monetary svste needs remedying, each seemed "wait ing for other and all -atching earnestly, if not wuitift. tor Kngland's action. 1 thieve that the discus-don, examination and organization already completed will be vi greai ueneiu , V hen (lined concerning Mi- Rothschild's pioposition Congressman M (Jtenry Slid: 1 appreciate very nuicti th attention ulvm by Mr UotlucKilJ, of the Hrliish d-le gntion. to the itti-sort.ini biitsnciis of tiie con ference, lie Ha Brest financier, anil tie fad tl at he Is an earnest advocate of the gold stamiam g ves lo tils proposition onusu.il im- norlnnce, and illustrates the gravity of llie currency crisis in CJrcit Britain.
