Smith, M P. for Flintshire, states the straits arising from adherence to gold standard is silently transferring property of British people to money lenders. Balfour contended that consensus of scientific opinion was in favor of bimetalism, which was largely increasing in public estimation, and financial opinion was also in favor. He admitted that change in monetary svstem would be risky, but Britain, he held, was entitled to make an attempt to improve present state of affairs. It would be impossible, however, unless the City supported the Govt which proposed it. He believed Lidderdale was in favor of remonetisation of silver. It would be foolish to treat this ns a domestic question, and to persist in selfish isolation in view of attitude of America and other countries. Sherman and Vorhees have cabled supporting Conference.

Rosebery, nddressing great meeting at Manchester, said owing to obstruction in Commons he was not sanguine that Govt programme would be passed. He described attitude of Labour Party as * Political Anarchism,’ and was calculated to strengthen Tories: and delay Home Rule.
