AN ADDRESS HY C. G. bOLAND
Ho Treated the Silver Question In a Very
i:xluiiistiv Mnniior-Iiinurnl of Fred
erick Zung-ihcio Wero Two
MarrluBes nt St, John's church.
Tho publlo wus Invited to attend the
public reception At Columbus Council,
Young Men's Institute moms, lust eve
ning. M. J. Donnhoe, chairman of the
institute, called Hie meeting to order
nnd Introduced Rev. E. J. Mollcy, pas
tor of St. John's church. The reverend
speaker said ho knew that the meet
ing was called to hear the silver ques
tion discussed, mid he advised the per
sons present 'to be more solicitous In
regard .to religion than temporal affairs.
A short inimical programme intervened.
James Touhill played with skill and ur
tlstlu tlnhdi ''The Battle of Hebastopol,"
on his guitar, nnd Miss Winifred Mel
vlu sang with richness of voice and
clearness the bullad, "Hearts." At this
point C. G. Poland was Introduced and
bis subject was "Tho Silver Question."
Ho spoke for two hours mid discussed
Very elubbrotely IIiIh theme.
Ho suid that the money question Is
the greatest the World lias to consider
ut this time, and It bus been un enigma
for centuries. Mr. Holaud said that
salt Is legal tender in Abyssinia and
codllsh In Newfoundland; but gold and
silver appear to have been the most
accepted as a medium of exchange for
centuries. Gold, he said, In the early
ages of Christianity enslaved men; be
cause the lending of It was done at
rates of interest that stipulated the for
feiture of liberty In cuse of a default of
payment. The speaker then carried his
hearers through tho economic side of
the money question. Today, he said,
the business of lending gold In largely
done In transferring it from Israel to
Engla nd.
For centuries, lie said, gold and sliver
has been accepted us the medium of
exchange and the standard of values.
England changed to the gold standard
In 1816, but until lS7i tho other countries
did not change. Since then silver has
been removed as one of the standards
of money nnd its retirement has had
most to do with the numerous upheav
als In business since. Removing silver
from the currency of the country lias
thrown tho control of the commerce of
tho world into the hands of 4,000 gold
bond holders, Mr. Poland advocated
as a remedy that silver be returned nnd
accepted im the standard of value; there
Is not nough of gold and there Is of
silver. The speaker does not believe in
adopting a metal on account of Its in
trinsio value, us this makes it an aim
for money lenders to horde their wealth.
He scored President Cleveland for his
truckling to the gold bugs of Wall
street.
Miss Katie Donohoo sang a solo und
was followed by D. M. Davis, who ren
dered a song in his usual excellent style.
Frederick Zang Iltiricd,
All that was mortal of the late
Frederick Zang was laid at rest yester
day afternoon In Plttston Avenue ceme
tery. Theremains were conveyed to
St. Paul's German Evangelical church
on Prospect avenue, and funeral ser
vices were there conducted by the pas
tor, Rev. Edward Lang, who preached
a touching funeral eulogy. The cortege
was a very large one.
Two .Mnrrlngcs Yesterday.
At St. John's ohurch yesterday after
noon two young couples were united
for life by Rev. E. J. Melley. Frank
O'Brien and MIhs Sadie Murray, both
of Crown avenue, were joined In the
holy bonds of matrimony at 8 p. m. A
reception followed at the home of the
bride.

LETTERS 1 KO.U THE I'EOl'I.E.
(Under this handing short letters of In
terest will be published when accompa
nied, fur publication, by the writer's
name. The Tribune will not be bold re
sponsible for opinions here expressed.)
AS IO NICAUAULA.
Editor of Tho Tribune.
Sir; I mm In the edition of our best
evening paper qtilto a sensational uppeal
fur Undo Sam to violently interfere with
tho collecting by England of certain
claims Hgulnst Nicaragua all this by rea
son of tho Monroe doctrine. The doctrine
aforesaid Is certainly correct In principle.
It ought to bu maintained und enforced
by any and every American administra
tion. On this point we nil agree. But on
tho other hand Is It proper and fair to
prevent a friendly power like England
from collecting claims which ore certainly
well founded, though porhapB soinewhate
excessive? Brltii-h subjects und even a
British consul, luivo been rouMhly and un
ceremoniously handled by citizens of this
petty Central American government. But
Englund never allows any such encroach
ments on the rights and dignity of her
subJentM abroad. In fact. It would be well
for us to follow the example which the
cabinet of Saint James sets us in cases of
this kind. But, alas! for a grand and
glorious nation, we are so proverbiully
lax nnd Indifferent regarding the dignity
unci nafety of our citizens uhroud that I
am not surprised to sec u morbid public
sentiment lu the United States In favor of
Nicaragua In the present cuse.
If we ure to Insist that England shall
not collect a clc.im Just in principle, then
let us guarantee thu debt to the Saint
James cabinet and run the risk of col
lecting it ourselves. In other words. If
wo are to allow all the turbulent and
troublesome citizens of the republics of
South and Central America to hide un
der tho ample wings of the American
eagle, It is our duty also to prevent un In
justice being done a great and noble na
tion from whom we have received our
best blood and whose mother-tongue is
our own. Sensationalism is neither senti
ment nor patriotism, and fairness Is the
best of policies for states us well as In
dividuals. Let us be fair with England
and then force her If need be to be fair In
her turn. That is, after she collects her
claims let our too cowardly state depart
ment Insist upon the Immediate evacua
tion of Nlcaraguun soil. Still, so sensible
and patriotic a step Is hardly to be expect
cd from a government that has attempted
to assassinate one republic nnd which
may yet permit another to be gobbled up.
Let us hope, however, for the best.
Yours truly,
Daniel B. Strong.
