OF THE SILVEH TALK.
MESSRS. HORR AND HARVEY WIND
UP THEIR LONG DEBATE
LAST DAY'S DISCUSSION.
That Whs Drtntctltu the Heal I.ltle of the
UupMIuii Under CoiMlilrrutlon the
Feasibility uf I'ree Culuuge Almio
by the United SUtei With
out liiterimtlonal Acree
incut The Point.
' Chicago July 30. Tlio last day of
the llarvuy-llorr stiver Mege opened
yesterday afternoon. The day's at
tacks were directed lit the ipiestion of
the feasibility of independent action
by the United States on the reinone-
tizatlun of silver and its free and un-
limited coinage nt it ratio of 10 to 1
with gold regardless of the action of
other tuitions. Mr. Hnrvey argued for
Mich action Mr. Ilorr n'.'nii-.t it.
Mr. Ilorr declared it us useless to
try to lix the relative vnlue of any two
substances by legislation. Suppose
congress should try to ilx the relative
value of a bushel of wheat and n
bushel of outs. As soon tus one of them
had a large crop up until go the
ratio and legislation by the nations of
the whole world would not maintain
therntio any more than it would make
water l tin uphill. The law of gravity
would siiiiid in the way; it was so in
the matter of the ratio between silver
mid gold. The law of supply and de-
mand stepped in there and the history
of the world shows that it is impossi-
ble to maintain a ll.cd ratio between
the precious metals.
Mr Harvey then took tip the tpics
tlon as to what is becoming of the sil-
ver being produced at piesciit. I(o
tlrst ijuolcd statements by authorities
that the increase of the u.c.of the
tnetuls in the arts had grown so large
theru was alwuys a ridiculously small
supply in Europe and there was u de-
mand for practically all of the articles
the United States produced. Proceed-
"lug Mr. Harvey said that gold uus ir-
legularly produced and was hoarded
by the few rich. Silver on the con-
trary when more valuub'o than gold
was hoarded by the muss of the peo-
ple thereby conferring a general ben-
flit. It was for this reason that silver
had been a more stable metal in the
past than gold.
'Mr. Ilorr said that Mr. Harvey had
the unfortunate habit of comparing
things which had no relation That
was the matter with his cube argu-
ment on gold and silver. The cubic
apace which they would occupy had
nothing to do with thuir value. lie-
binning his argument and referring to
Mr. Harvey's statement that the re-
mouel'.atiop of silver would reduce
debts by one-half Mr. Hoir said that
by far the largest part of the debts in
the United States was less than
one year old. The old time debts
were those of large corporations.
The next time debts were contracted
under the existing gold basis and to
reduce them one-half would be to re-
pudiate that ouc-hulf. lie declared
that cheap money could not be sub-
stituted for good money without in-
juring the muss of the people. The
people who would pmJli by such a
change would not bo the rich but the
money changers. Mr. Jiorr then pro-
ceeded to enumerate the classes of
people wlio work for their Jiving argu-
ing that they would be injured by
cheap money.
Mr. Harvey returned to his cube
guinent declaring it was a valuable
object lesson. It showed that the
ltothfcchihls could corner the gold of
the world in their vaults. Itesiiiulug
lils argument Mr. IJarvey said the gold
advocates feu red that debts contracted
in gold would be paid in silver and
the man who had stipulated to pay
gold would hate to buy it at a prt'
iiiluut. This was fallacious. As
noon as silver was reiuouetUcd no wan
could stipulate for payment in gold;
the demand for gold would
decrease at the same Hint the demand
fur silver Would increase and soon
the difference lietween the metals
would bo wiped out. Soon the pur-
chaser would be able to get wore in
gold for wiiat he had to sell than now.
lie declared that it was not the stamp
on tins coin wh'ch gave it the value
but the making of new use and new
demand for It. If at the next gen-
eral election a bimetallic congress
bhould be elected the Kubicon would
be passed the next day. Silvt r would
at once begin to appreciate and gold
to depreciate. And they would be at
parity before the meeting of congress
and as the greenback dollar became
.utpial In value to the gold dollar be-
fore the lesuutption uet came into
.force.
Mr. Ilorr deelarod the trouble was
that with free silver coinage gold
would losivo the country and our busi-
ness would be on a basis dillerent from
the rest of the world Ho argued
there wus enough gold In the world
for the transaction of legitimate busi-
ness and the annual output of the
mines of the world was large enough
to meet the increase of the world's
bltslllefcS.
Mr. Harvey declared ho was In favor
tit iiulrjeiuleut action by this govern-
ment biu&u it would right a great
wrong; because its continuance would
lie Injurious because thu nation should
lie Independent in i.uioiv-'l weunsu we
should be free from tribute-paying to
Ureat llrltaiu; because our power Is
tmllloient to compel Kurope to conic to
our standard In order to do business
witli it . international balances were
ottltl by weight anyhow. Theie was
no such thing as international money.
The deUt J. hen eloted by Mr. Horr
presenting Mr. Hai-vey with two .o!n
.of two different jneluls because Mr.
Jlurvey was a bimetal list. The debat-
ers then thanked each other for the
courteous treatment shown by both
and the debute came to an end.
It should be said thut the attendance
ut the session of the discussion was by
.card only aud was limited to the ca-
pacity of the hall wiiluh was about
It. w n
Liutt The space was generally
fully
occupied.

TOLD OF PIETZELS' DEATH
HOLMES TELLS A GREWSOME STORY
OF SUICIDE AND SWINDLING.
A GHASTLY NARRATIVE.
He llelnte In Itelull I low flcttel Killed
Himself nnd llnw the Stutter Was
YVoiked Up to Colleel the Innur-
nneo .Money- He Itiien Nut
Admit lie Wat Itenpinnl-
ble for rietzerfTHeatli.
Iiiii.Ai)Ki.i'iii.v.Iuly 30. An entirely
new .statement has just been made by
it. II. Holmes the supposed murderer
of tho l'ietzel children. In it the man
of many crimes gives in detail his ver-
sion ut how l'ietzel came by his death
last September nnd also states his
(Holmes) connection with the tragedy.
Holmes says that on Saturday night
preceding the death of l'ietzel tho lat-
ter came to his house ou North
Llcvcnlli street where he wns staying
with "Mrs. Howard." l'ietzel told
Holmes n honrtrendiug story of his
pecuniary tlltlleullles and of the sick
ness of Ills daughter lit St. Louis. "I
must have money" he said
or words to that effect "to
send to my wife In St. Louis."
Holmes remonstrated witli l'ietzel us
to his spendthrift habits and spoke
substantially to him as follows: "Then
you have been a good friend of mine;
I'll admit It. 1 have made lots of
money through you. but lean not keep
this thing up. Where Is that 50 I
t?ave 3011 tho'other day? If you don't
pilt drinking you and I will have to
fcpuiatc. '
'1'iils conversation is said to havo
l.een carried oil along Lleventh street
the men walking north until Morris
street wits 1 cached. When they ar-
rived :ii the corner Pietzel exclaimed:
"I 11111 of 110 benullt to anyone. I will
soon get rid of my dllllcuItloK. Life
lias become a iiulMince to me." Holmes
then avers Hint he jokingly remarked:
'Well your body is as good as any
other but I would not ndvlsu you to
do mi) thing rash.
Ho mes accounts for making this ro-
mark by saying Hint he and Pielzel
hit I under consideration the defraud-
ing of the Fidelity Mutual Insurance
company. Holmes says Pietvel limn
lieeiimo angry ami again vowed that
he would commit suicide. Holmes
then explains that l'ietzel left him
with the intention of going home.
Holmes says he gave l'ietzel no money
that night but promised to meet him
at the Cullowhill street house the fol-
lowing mauling.
It was about 10 o'clock the follow-
ing day (Sunday) Holmes goes on to
sny that he went to visit l'ietzel at the
Cullowhill street house. When ho
reached tho lihice no one nppaiently
was about. Holmes sat in the kitchen
for almost twenty minutes waiting for
l'ietzel to appear' The latter Holmes
supposed had gone out for breakfast.
Time wore 011 and "Hen" was not to bo
seen. The conspirator then says that he
became anxious about his friend's
whereabouts and began to search tho
house for Pietel. "As 1 arose to go
upstairs" says tho criminal ' 1 noticed
a note lying ou the counter in the front
part of the house. It was addressed
to me." Then Holmes explains that
ho opened the note. It directed him
to go up to the second Hour and to
open a closet in which ho would find
a large blue bottle containing another
letter addiessiMl to him. Holmes fol-
lowed the directions
a lie found the note In the bottle as
described and was horrified when he
read it .it was from Benjamin l'iet-
zel and advised that his dead body
could be found in thn house. The let-
ter pleaded that Holmes look after
Pletzel's children and suiru'eslcd that
there would he nodllllculty in getting
the insurance money from the Fidelity
company now that the dead body of
I'ict.el could be produced In evidence.
Holmes then told his friend of the
appenriiiiee of tin corpse and said 1 e
snt in the room with the body for ovei
an hour. He was dazed and hanlly
knew what course to pursue. He II mil -ly
made up his mind that since l'ietzel
liud taken his life there would be no
hariii in destroying any evidence of
suicide that he might be able to get
the insurance on 1 'let el's life without
any difficulty.
Holmes has confessed that he there-
upon drugged the dead body to the sea-
oud Moor In Id the corpse bn tho lloor
pried open the mouth uf the dead mail
with a pencil and jtnurcd In aouaiititv
of oxplofeive chemicals He then he
says placed a lighted mutch to the
man's mouth w hen the explo-
sion which so horribly disfigured
the corpse followed. To give
tho more forcible linprosslou that
l'ietzel came to his deal 1 by 1111 acci-
dental cxpi.e- .mi. Holmes stated to his
friend that he got a ple of I'letzel's
filled it with tobacco lighted It ami
thou blew out tin Ihune after the tip
baeco had been iwrtlally consumed
and placed the pipe btHaide the dead
man' body.
It was nearly I o'cloek In the after-
noon before ha loft tho Callowhlll

rived at llayatno on foot The dead
and wounded were left on the Held."
