coin, shall not exceed $5,000,000."
Ami, to facilitate silvcrite assent to
this amendment, two sections were
added to the bill : one providing 'for
an international conference on silver
coinage! and the other thai any person
might deposit silver coin authorized
by the act in sums not less than ten
dollars each and obtain therefor certi
ficates of not less than ten dollars
each corresponding with denomina
tions of United States notes, and that
the coin so deposited should be re
tained in the treasury for payment of
the certificates. The bill in its amend
ed form being sent to President Hayes
was vetoed by him ; but, upon recon
sideration, was passed over his veto
by a two-thirds vote in each house of
congress, on the 28th of February,
1878, and so became a law.
An argument greatly pressed by
the advocates of the Bland bill was
that if the government took silver
bullion freely and coined it freely both
its commercial or market price and
its merit as a coin in parity with gold
would be maintained: it would form
valuable currency for use by the people
and at the same time perform with
gold the function of a legal standard
for all commercial ana monetary
transactions. How illusory jhese
expectations were is shown by results.
Although the government has pur
chased silver and coined dollars by
hundreds of millions, yet the price of
silver has greatly fluctuated year by
year, showing on the whole a steady
and sure decline in value until a point
of extreme depreciation was reached,
in 1894, which startled and troubled
every commercial country of the
world. The rates of decline, will be
shown hereafter in the present paper.
THE SHERMAN ACT.
So called Sherman Act was in fact
a sunnlement to 'the Bland Act of
1878, repealed the provision of the
former statute which provided for a
purchase of not less than 2,000.000,
nor more than 4,000,000 dollars
worth of silver bullion per month and
coining the same into silver dollars as
therein provided and substituted
therefor the following :
" That the Secretary of the Treas
ury is hereby directed to purchase,
from time to time, silver bullion to
the aggregate amount of 4,500,000
ounces, or so much thereof as may
be offered in each month", at the
market price thereof, not exceeding
one dollar for 371.25 grains of pure
silver, and to issue, in payment for
such purchases of silver bullion, treas
ury notes of the United States to be
nrenared bv the Secretary of the
Treasury, in such form and of such
denomination, not less than one dol
lar nor more than $1,000, as he may
prescribe, and a sum sufficient to
carry into effect the provisions of
this Act is hereby appropriated out of
any money in the treasury not other
wise appropriated."
The second section of the act pro
vided : -'That the treasury notes
issued in accordance with the provi
sions of this act shall be redeemable
on demand, in coin, at the treasury of
the United States, or at the office of
any assistant treasurer of the United
States, and when so redeemed may
be reissued ; but no greater or less
amount of such notes shall be out
standing at any time than the cost of
the silver bullion, and the standard
silver dollars coined therefrom, then
held in the treasury, purchased by
such notes ; and such treasury notes
shall be a legal tender in payments
of all debts, public and private, ex
cept where otherwise expressly stipu
lated in the contract, and shall be
receivable for customs, taxes, and all
public dues, and when so received
may be reissued ; and such notes,
when held by any national banking
association, may be counted as a part
of its lawful reserve. That, upon de
mand of the holder of any of the
treasury notes herein provided for,
the Secretary of the Treasury shall,
under such regulations as he may pre
scribe, redeem such notes in gold or
silver coin, at his discretion, it being
the established policy of the United
States to maintain the two metals on
a parity with each other upon the
present legal ratio, or such ratio as
may be provided by law."
Sec. 3. "That the Secretary of
the Treasury shall each month coin
2,000,000 ounces of the silver bullion
purchased under the provisions of
this act into standard silver dollars
until the 1st day of July, 1891, and
after that time he shall coin of the
silver bullion purchased under the

provisions of this act as much as may
bt necessary to provide for the re

in provided for, and any gain or

shall be accounted for and paid into
the treasury."
The remaining sections of the act
are not of importance in the present
review of the action of Congress upon
the silver question, and arc therefore
omitted. But I have been thus care
ful in giving the material parts of this
most unwise and disastrous statute, in
order that the bearing and force of
observation hereafter made thereon,
accompanied by statistical informa
tion shall be well understood.
DOLLAR COINAGE.
The provision of the Sherman Act
for purchasing silver for dollar coinage
was repealed by act November ist,
1893 as the result of an extra session
of Congress with protracted debate,
and since that date very little addition
has been made to our stock of dollar
coins, but the aggregate result of such
coinage since February 28, 1878 up
to 1 st of November, 1895 is shown
by the Mint Report for the latter year
and is as follows :
Under Wand Act of 1S7S, ,37S, 166,793.
under Miertt.an Act 01 Injo, 40,041,0.14.
Kecoiniwe of Trade dollars
Act of 1S91
5,078,472.
Total 423,289,309
At tne same date, November 1st,
1895, this great amount of dollar coins
was held or distributed as follows :
In treasury, held for certificates or
notes issued, $342,400. C04: in treas
ury, not so held, $22,2C.7n; in cir
culation, $58,354,092, from which it
appears that less than one-seventh of
the whole amount was outside the
treasury, in circulation among the
people.
If it be said that silver dollars have
increased in circulation in recent
years and will largely increase here
after, it may be answered that good
evidence contradicts the assertion.
In the annual Mint Report of 1895,
we have the totals of silver dollar coin
of the United States on the first of
November of each year from 1886 to
1895, (both years inclusive) and the
amount of silver dollars in circulation
at the same date of each of those
years from which it appears that while
the coinage of silver dollars increased
from $241,000,000 to $423,000,000,
the amount of silver dollars in circula
Hon actually decreased. The de
crease was still greater on the first of
April, 1896. The figures are as
follows :

Ap. 1 '96, 426,289,916. 54.792.752
It is thus made evident that circu
lation for silver dollars cannot be ob
tained beyond a maximum of about
sixty million although energetic efforts
were put forth during a series of years
to promote their distribution as cur
rency. The treasury department and
the national banks have been in par
ticular engaged in this effort with the
result we have seen.
The size and weight of the siKer
dollar is an obstacle to its circulation
and use for large payments, or in any
considerable quantity, for the redemp
tion of paper currency. Containing
41 2A grains (including one-tenth of
alloy,) it weighs about seventeen dol
lars to the pound, avoirdupois, from
which it results that the mass now in
the treasury inert, and unused,
amounts to more than ten thousand
nine hundred tons ; and if those dol
lars were placed against each other
on a straight line, their length would
exceed the diameter of the earth.
It mav be added that the unrepeal
ed provisions of the Bland and Sher
man acts, tor holding a great part 01
the coined dollars in the treasury for
redemption of silver ccrtincates am!
treasury notes, is practically deceptive
and inoperative. For the holder of
such certificates and notes will not
present them for payment in such
coins, not only because the coin is
inconvenient for use and cannot in
quantity be passed into circulation
but because the certificates and notes
are themselves much better for cir
culation and use. For being receiva
ble for customs, for all taxes and
public dues, and the later ones, legal
tender for all debts public and private
they are as available to the holder as
other forms of treasury obligations,
They do not ami will not take the
X) gnosis r&
dollar coin out of the treasury, or
produce their distribution among the
people.
TOTAL OF SILVER.
The subsidiary coin on ist of April
of present year, namely half dollars,
quarters and dimes, amounted to $78,-
216,077 of which amount $15,246,-
374 was in the treasury, and $62,970,
303 in circulation. There was also
on hand in the mints and assay offices
of the United States on the ist of
November last, silver bullion costing
the government $124,921,500 liable
to an increase in its nominal value of
perhaps two-fifths if coined into
standard dollars. But adding together
the subsidiary coin and bullion just
stated and the $426,288,916 coined
dollars, before mentioned, we get a
total stock of silver amounting to
$629,426,893 of which only 117,763,
055 were in circulation as dollars and
subsidiary coin.
Before the war of the rebellion it
was understood that 50,000,000 of
subsidiary coin fairly supplied the
demand of the country for change and
small payments, but with increased
population and active intercourse
among our people the amount is now
considerably increased. This demand
is fully met by the government, with
a respectable reserve 111 the treasury.
In fact there is no difficulty and no
dispute about supplying any popular
demand with those coins and the
mints and the treasury are competent
to make, and authorized to furnish
such supplies, and as to silver dollars,
we have ascertained by trial and
experience, that under existing condi
tions the country can take and use
about 60,000,000 which sum with a
reasonable reserve, a prudent govern
ment will be careful to provide.
So also if the policy proposed by
me in the Senate when the national
banking act was under consideration
during the war, of prohibiting the
issuing of small notes, should be
adopted, there could be an enlarged
circulation of coin dollars to supply
the place of such notes. 1 hat is a
question for the consideration of those
entrusted with the enactment of our
laws i but it is perfectly plain that the
principal means by which coin dollar
circulation can be extended, is to
it'tire one and two dollar currency
notes.
Beyond the limit of silver purchase
and coinage by government here
indicated, it will be difficult to go and
stand -upon sure ground. Shall we
buy or coin silver to enable those who
produce silver to make money ? Shall
we issue treasury notes based upon
depreciated treasury silver and virtu
ally redeemable in silver alone ?
DECLINE OF SILVER.
For more than twenty years silver
has been declining and fluctuating in
commercial value, earning for itself
the title unsteady, and disturbing all
the markets of the world. In the year
1873 the silver contained in our
standard dollar was intrinsically worth
1 00 cents and a slight fraction over
but between 1873 and 1878 both
years inclusive the average value of
the dollar was 94 cents. Those six
years were followed by the era of the
Bland and Sherman acts extending
over a period of fifteen years, to the
close of 1893. The silver dollar in
1879 was worth about 87 cents but
in 1893 had fallen to sixty cents.
During the intervening period the
fluctuations of price had been great
but the average for the whole period
was 79J. For the years 1891, 92, and
93 (the Sherman act being then in
force,) the average was 68 cts. In
1894 the market value fell to an
average, lor the year, of 49 cts.
Recently the intrinsic value of the
silver dollar was reported at 68 cts.,
while a few months ago it stood at 55
The proportion by weight of silver to
gold as recognized by our coining acts,
was in former times, a true relation.
And whether the proportion between
them should be 15, 15 J, or 16 to one,
was, as Mr. Jefferson described it
purely commercial question." But
now the relation of 16 to 1 is notori
ously a false relation, and has been
ever since 1873. Nothing of the kind
occurred in our history before that
year. A change was made in the legal
relation of the two metals in the year
1837, but their commercial relation
to each other was comparatively
steady and uniform as the following
figures in different years will show,
(r ractions expressed in decimals.)

The principal cause of the great
fall in silver in the last 23 years, has
been increased production in the
anous countries of the world, particu
larly in North and South America.
from the mint tables of silver pro
duction in the world in former years,
I select the following figures of total
production at certain decennial periods

States, 60,817,300, in Mexico, 4,474,
800, in Peru, 28,444,400, in Bolivia,
and smaller amounts in other Repub-
ics south of the United States, as
well as amounts of varying magni
tudes abroad.
THE STEWART AMENDMENT.
This amendment, proposed by Mr.
Stewart of Nevada in the Senate, in
1 87 1 and which secured the sanction
of that body, completely exposes the
plan and objects cf the silverite inter
est of the west, is in accord with the
Bland bill in its original form and with
the Plumb amendment, of which I
have already spoken. It is also con
sistent with the recent and present
position and demand of the silvcrite
interest in the Senate, whose obstruc
tive tactics at the present session of
Congress have attracted the atten
tion of the people of the United
States.
The Stewart amendment was offer
ed to a currency bill from the com
mittee on Finance and was as follows:
"That any owner of silver bullion, not
too base for the operations of the
mint, may deposit the same in amounts
of the vaiue of not less than $100 at
any mint of the United States, to be
formed into standard dollars or bars,
for his benefit and without charge,
and that at the said owners option,
he may receive an equivalent of such
standard dollars in treasury notes of
the same form and description, and
having the same legal qualities, as
the notes provided for by the act ap
proved July 14, 1890, entitled, 'An
act directing the purchase of silver
bullion, and the issue of treasury notes
thereon, and for other purposes.' And
all such treasury notes issued under
the provisions of this act shall be a
legal tender for their nominal amount
in payment of all debts, public and
private, and shall be receivable for
customs, taxes, and all public dues,
and when so received may be re
issued in the same manner, and to
the same extent, as other treasury
notes."
Amendment adopted January 14,
1891 by a vote of 42 to 30, and bill
passed the Senate by a vote 39 to 27.
Sherman, Vol. 2, P 1093.
How plain and simple this is. lie
who misunderstands it must deceive
himself ! Three very intelligible pro
positions constitute the whole scheme:
First : Any person in the world who
has, or can get silver bullion may go
with it to any mint in the United
States and have it there manufactur
ed into standard dollars or bars the
product to be delivered to him in
either form he may desire. All this
is to be done for him without charge,
by the mint, and for his benefit, that
is, for his personal proht and advan
tage. An illustration will show the
working of the plan more clearly than
argument. In 1801 when this
amendment was voted triumphantly
through the Senate the market value
of silver in the standard American
dollar, ranged between 8 2 and 73 cts.
in the London market, the average
rate being 76 cts. In that year upon
the silver produced from the U. S.
mines, if the whole of it had been dump
ed at the U. S. mints under the Stew
art amendment there would have
been a net profit to the producers of
more than sixteen million of dollars 1
Second. The mint having manu
factured fhis bullion into standard
dollars or bars, he may, at his option
demand and receive treasury notes
therefor, instead of dollars ; said.notes
to be legal tender for debts, public
and private, for customs, taxes &:c.
So in the end he gets for his silver
gold compelling securities of the gov
ernment without having been subject
ed to any loss upon his product, such
as a sale thereof in open market would
impose.

This exhibit shows a large increase
in the currency of the country since
the passage of the Act for resuming
specie payments, 14th of January,
1875, when the amount of our paper
currency was $780,000,000, ami coin
was not in common use. Nor do the fig
ures furnish any substantial evidence
that the present volume of our cur
rency, reasonably distributed, is in
sufficient for public use. On the
contrary, the falling off in the circula
tion of national bank notes and green
backs since 1874 tends to show that
more currency notes in those forms
are not necessary at this time and will
not be in the immediate future, unless
substituted for some of the other
forms of currency above mentioned.
The greenback currency in December,
1874 was $382,000,000, and is now
stated at $346,000,000, of which
114,000,000 are in the treasury and
not in circulation. During the same
interval of time between 1874 and
1896 the national bank notes have
dropped in amount from 354,000,000
to 221,000,000, of which latter amount
7,000,000 are in the treasury, and
214,000,000 only in circulation.
The nearest obtainable date for a
statement of the gold and silver bul
lion owned by the government, (not
shown in the table above) is the first
of November, 1S95, at which date (as
we are informed by the Director of
the Mint) there was in the mints and
assay offices of the United States
gold bullion at cost value of $53,945,
262, and silver bullion, cost value
$124,921,500. If these two large
amounts of bullion were now in the
treasury in the form of coin, , the gold
would be available for all purposes,
for money and currency, while the
silver would not. The latter would
remain in the treasury and not pass
into circulation.
