Senator Walcott has returned from his European trip in the interests of bi-metalism and a new international conference, and all lie will say, is to say that so far lie has said nothing, and that the reported interviews with liini are untrue. A great majority of the peöple who elected President ilcKinley declared to be in favor of bi-metalism, though opposed to free Bilver as adyocated by Mr. Bryan and his supporters. President McKinley almo.it carne to grief because of his nreli known friendliness to silver, and ín his inaugurad address he promises to inue liis endeavors in its behalf. ït was supposed to be on the request of Mr. McKinley that Senator Walcott made his trip abroad. In view of these circumstances we may conüdently expect some honest effort by the administration to bring about a iarger use of silver, and President McKinley's utterances on the subject to congress will be awaited with interest.
