Lerner, July lid—The international
xeographioaloongross met and discussed
polar exploration. Dr. Ncumsycr and Jo-
seph Booker, a survivor of the arctic
upedition headed by Sir John lloss (1820.
33), urged that new expeditions be cquip~
Dr. Murray, leader of the Challenger
expedition, supported the theory that the
antarctic continent is not a succession of
volcanic islands, and that invostlaatious
in the Antarctic ocean ought (o be undcr~
taken by the novice of the World. A coin.
mitten was appointed to draw up a rose-
lutiin in favor of further exploration.
The attendanccwas small. The paper
read by General A. W. firmly is regarded
as too technical to be popular.
The most interest was taken in a paper
by S. A” Andrco, proposing ii balloon
route to the north pole. ’l‘ho idcusccins
fcusiblc us propoundmi by him, but the
general impression of the congress is that
the projcct is impracticable.
M. Andree Wanted Encouragement.
The Swedish Scientific society approves
ill. Andrcc's balloon project, and he has too
rcivcdalibcrtil donation to help iii-fray
expenses from King Oscar of Sweden.
The attempt is assured, but ill: Andrco
tic-sired thcupprovul of tho geographical
congress.
He explained that M. You of Paris has
contracted to make for Sll.(ititi the inn-
ziiiiio of double silk, of which about 5,000
. cubic motors will be required. The bill-
ioon is to be capable of carrying tlircc pcr-
sons, with the necessary instrumcnts rind
ballast and four months’ provisions. It
will be sufficiently gas tight to lltl\'l‘!' iii

‘ hllity of independent action by the Unit-
ed States for the remonctization of silver
and its free and unlimited coinage at a ra-
tio of 10 to i. regardless of the acts of oth-
er nations. Mr. Harvey arguing for such
lotion and Mr. Hot-r against it.
Mr. Harvey presented a table showing
the coinage of gold and silver from 1792
to 1873. He did this to show that gold did
not seek the mints for the first 50 years of
the nation and that silver did not from
that time till 1878. ‘
Mr. Horr declared it was useless to try
to fix the relative value of any two sub-
stances by legislation. The. law of supply
and demand stopped in there, and the his-
tory of the world's legislation showed that
it was impossible to maintains fixed ris-
tlo between the precious metals.
Mr. Harvey said that gold was irregular-
ly produced and was boarded by the few
”1"“, Silver. on the contrary, when more
Vilniiilllu than gold, was boarded by the
mass of the people, thereby conferring a
ground benefit. it was for this reason that
sliver had been a more stable metal in the
past than gold.
Referring to Mr. lliirwy's statement
that tho rcnionotimrtion of silver would
reduce debts by tinc‘lllllf, Mr. liorr said
that by far the largest part of the debts in
tile ['uitcd Hiutcs wcrc ices than one year
old. The short time dclits wrro contracted
undcr tho r-xisting gold basis, and to re-
duco thciii oiio-lmlf would be to repudiate
that onc‘lmlf. Mr. liiirvcy said that the
gold utivocuics fcurcd that debts contract-
cd in gold Would be paid in silvor. and the
mnnwho had stipulated to pay gold would
have to buy it at it prcmiuin. This was
fulliicious.
