Foreign Nations On Silver

New York, June 3.- The ministers of finalice in the empires of Kussia and Germany and the kingdoms of Belgium and Holland have sent cables to The World stating the position of those countries in regard to an international monetary conference. The World's questiun to the ministers was: "The editor of the New York World begs to Inquire of your excellency whether you are in favor of another international monetary conference. There is, as you know, most intense interest throughout the United States as to the possibility of a restoration of the bimetallic standard by international agreement and a3 to the sentiment of your country on the question of silver." The cablegrams from the various ministers, with translations, are given in full below, exccpt that of Germany, which simply refers The World to parliamentary documents explaining Germany's position, v, hich was in favor of an international conference. , "Madrid, June 1. - The Liberal party had dele;atps in the Brussels conference.

The üerman ''bimetailist" is a different sort of person from the American silver coinage man, however, and there is very little comfort for the latter in the German assurance in favor of bimetallism, as the Germán bimetailist does not believe in the practicabüity of his own views unless Êugland goes in. He believes, though, ihat England is on the eve of a bimeüillio viotory, and thus believing he has, in convention assembled, as we say here, resolved to make Germany's action on the currency question dependent upon Kngland's particlpation, always provided that the government mediately takes all the mensures calculated to bring about international bimru.llisrn, including Enirltind, and urge the speedy adhefion of England to this prograrame.
