Judge Kf.lley, in a private letter, a portion of whose eon'ents have been . made public, declares that the weight of the silver dollar must be dimin ished to 390.09 grains, rather than in creased, before international bimetal Ism can he est-.ihlhdied in the b.vds which bus hitherto prevailed through out the world, namely, 1"J of silver to t of gold. To adopt another standard would be to require the reeoiniigo of all the gold money or of all the silver money of the world except that of the United States. The United State coinage is based on 10 to 1, a relation in opposition to the coinage in nil other commercial nation. As Un united States stands in a hopeless minority touching the relation of the metals, Judge Kelley holds that we must accept t lie universally accepted ratio and decrease the present stand ard silver dollar from 412 to 493.99 grains. Five Indicted. THE PROSECUTION IN THE FORGERY CAKE PUSHING THINGS. New York, Dec. 3. The Grand Jury In General Session to-day pre sented indictments against baiiiuel Sullivan Morey lor perjury and against Joseph Hart, Louis A. Post, Kenward l'hilp and Charted A. Byrne for pub lishing in the paper calhd Truth a criminal libel upon General Garfield. If convicted, the penalty is one year In the penitentiary and a tine ot f 1, 500. The bail given by Phiip alter his examination by Judge Davis was con tinued. Messrs. Post mill Hal t came to tlie District Attorney's Olliee to give bail this allirnoon, but Judge Cowing hail gone home, and they were allowed to go on their own re spoiisiblity until to-morrow morning, when they will furnish the necessary bonds. It is probable that now tluit Morey has been indicted for perjury lie will be removed from the House of Detention to the Tombs. George Hliss one of the counsel for prosecution, said, in speaking of the indictments : "We ure very well satisfied with the work thus lar done. The indietmen.s found were all that were asked for of this Grand Jury. 'J he case is by no means finisheil. There ure other de tails to be looked alter, and these will be brought to the attention of the nextGiand Jury. Meanwhillethein dietmeiits alieady found will be brought to trial at an early day, cer tainly some time this month'." To the question, "Was there any con siderable delay in procuring t'hem?" he answered: "No more than wus uece.-sury. There have been no mis takes made by the prosecution. We have investigated carefully the various clues and details, and are still en gaged in following them up There will be other developments of an im j ortant nature made public when the time conies." Assisiunt District At torney Bell also expressed himself us pleased at what had already been ac complished. "There would," he said, "be no unnecessary delay in bringing the cases to trial. Counsel for prose cution had patiently gone over the large mass of evidence and there was no question but that a strong case had been made out against t lie accused persons. The indictments against these men were for forging the letter purporting to lie written by G.-iieral Gartield, and for writing and publish ing an editorial article accusing General Gartield of lying when he denied the authenticity of the letter. The law of libel as applied to this ease is decided to be very clear. A letter purporting to be written by Geneial Gartield was published in the Truth. Guieial Gal field denied having writ ten such a letter. The new.-paper then editorially affirmed tlie geuuiueiiessof the leitter and declared that General Garfield lied when lie denied hav ing written it. Tlie burden of proving thegcnuiiieuessof the letter then rested upon Truth. Failing to prove this the persons indicted must lie convicted of libel. The fact that the indictments had been found against so many oi those connected with the libel occas ioned no surprise among those eon veisant with the facts in the case. It was expected that more would be found. The reason why they were not was because counsel for the prose cution wished to work up still further developments wineli point to .Mary land and Massachusetts. These de velopments implicate at least two members of the Democratic National Committee, who will probably find it difficult to explain their actions in tlie mutter of the forged letter when called upon to do so in u court of J ustice. It is believed that some one who had ac tress to the Grand Jury room gave lo some pel-son connected with TruthUm details of all the important testimony concerning the Morey letter soon after it was laid before the jurors. An effort will be made to prevent this when the next Grand Jury meets. Proof of this is shown by the fact that one of the counsel for the defense went before Juoge Cowing and wished to oiler hail for bis clients helore the indictment bad been presented to the Court. It is still believed that l'hilp was tlie forger. Railroads and (he rubllc. Phllmlelphln Press. Ap the time for the reassembling of Congress and Htnte Legislatures up proachesthe railroad problem discussed so much last winter comes again to the front. The principal grievances of shippers nre that tlie railroad com panies do not treut them with equality, discrimination being practiced both airniint communities and individuals; that rates are suddenly and arbi trarily changed with ruinous eftcet on their business; that charges are deter mined lv the new principle of "what the traffic will bear," which In effect compels producers to divide their pro fits with the companies. Instead of paying only reasonable rates bused on the old rule of "cost of service " That these complaints are well founded, has been fully proven, and In fact, is not denied. Tlie great hard ships which these practices of the rail road companies entail; their inequity and radical incompatibility Willi the Interest of the public, have been so often ami fully set forth that it is un necessary to re yen to them. The evil Is admitted to exist, but how can it be cured, or can it be cured at all? Has Congress or the State Legisla tures or both authority to Interfere? Il they have, in what 'manner and to what extent can they exert this au thority without doing injustice to the tin in -a 1 1 companies ami perhaps caus ing more mischief than they cure? Tlie New York Chamber of Com merce has become conspicuous for the zeal and earnestness with which it seeks to relieve shippers from the oneorus exactions ot the railroad companies, or at least the excessive power which they now possess to make or mar tlie business of their patrons in pursuance of this pur pose it sent a circular letter lo men of prominence and position throughout the country, containing a scries of questions and a request for their views on the points involved. The reply returned by Jwlire Jere S. Black is a valuable contribution to the liter ature of I his vexed railroad question. The position there laid down as to the legal status of railroads, though haed on rather venerable decisions, lias nevertheless an air of decided novelty. The claim made in behalf of the iiiilroad corporations that the roads are their private properly, which they have a right to manage as they please, is clearly untenable. It was laid down two hundred years ago by Cl iel Justice Hale that when private prop rrtv is nll'i ctcil with a public, interest it ceased to be merely private property '1'lils is gi.iHl law to-day. It lias been reaffirmed by the United .Stales .su preme Court, which declared in a re cent cac that where private property is devoted to public use it is subject to public regulation. It is on this princi ple that banks, bridges, wharves, fer ries and turnpikes have long been sull ied to legislative regulation, and rail roads clearly come within the same category. Judge Black, however, is not content to rest the authority of the Legislature over railroads on ' this narrow basis, in bis view a railroad is not private property allcctcd with a public use, but it ispnb.ie property in which the railroad corporations have no proprietary right, title or claim, but a mere franchise annexed to and ex ercisable thereon. A railroad, the Judge argues, is a public highway laid out and built by the authority of the Stale for the pur pose of commerce. It is immaterial whether the State builds this road at Iter own expense or delcgali s her tak ing and taxing power to a corporation; in eitiier ease the road heliums to the State and all people have a right to use it upon compliance with the ne cessary regulations and payment of the proper tax. This premise being grunted, several inipi. riant conclus ions irresistibly follow. If a railroad is a public highway tlie amount of the tux, toll or freight is not a matter ot bargain between shipper ami corpor ation, but a thing to be lixed by pub lic authority. '1 he vested riyhts of the corporation are limited to the privilege of taking a fixed, reasonable and uniform rate lor all persons alike, according to the Use they make of the roa I. If the r.iilro.i 1 lielo'i to Un people the riitht of all citizens are equal and discriminations are un lawful. Without questioning the soundness nf Judge Black's reasoning we eon siiler it fortunate that a just solution of the railroad problem need not await the general acceptance of his views. The power of the National or State Governments to restrict railroad charges, prevent discrimination, pro hibit the granting of rebates, and com pel some permanency and iinil'oi inity of rates is sufficiently well settle-' without assuming that railroads are public property. Unless the railroad companies themselves forestall action ami yield to tlie just demands of the public on the points indicated this legislative pnwtr will almost certainly be called into requisition. Whether it would be exercised wisely or fool ishly is impossible to foresee. It is perhaps vain to look for any conces sions from the railroads 'liie sphere of the State Legislature is too re stricted for any eifeotive action on tins subject. 1 lie only resource is in Congress. Tlie evils "to be remedied arc patent. The danger, however, is that the ad vocates of railroad regula tion will defeat their own purpose by endeavoring to accomplish too much at once.
