"Go II, husband: go It, bear," seemed to. be the motto In the Il linois Club to-day, The audience at the Horr-ltarvey controversy appeared to bo rapidly developing the feeling of the West era matron, whoe lighting enthusiasm on an eieltlng occasion overcame her other emotions. The husband and the grizzly re ferred to could hardly have attempted more thoroughly to rip each other up tho h.vk nnd elsewhere than did Messrs. Uorr and Harvey this afternoon. .Mr. llnrr ttcglii tho llrulon. Mr. Ilorr opened the discussion. He be. gun by saying that the I12'i grain silver dollars, coined between tho jears 171 nnd 1S7.1 were all coined nt the Philadelphia mint, and from foreign silver coins, which had accumulated In the treasury, under nn act of congress, which made thm receiva ble, but did not permit them to be paid out again. That was why sliver was coined at lcsi than Its bullion value. After 1S31 the government did not coin a dolHr ot our sli ver coinage for private owners. A Denial bv Mr. Ilarver. 'Jlr. Harvey In reply denied the statement and declared that he could prove It. H presented a mint statement showing that over JIOO.OO.) In sliver dollars had been coined at the mint at Carson Citv, Nov . In 1ST0. Mr. Harvey then resumed the discussion of the question of primary and credit mon ey. He said that as soon as there" was nn over-Issue of credit money It c.iued dis trust of the government's ability to pay. This caused a run on the treasury for the redemption of credit monev, and the only remedy was to either lncieae the amount of the primary money or a decrease of the amount of the eiodlt money. The amount of gold In the United States w.i-i estimated at from 5 100,000,000 to Jijfn), ooo.ooo, and of our credit money about Jl,OOf,0.,0(X). This was too much credit money, he "aid, and accounted for the coun try's tln.incl.il derangement. The remedy was to inciease the primary monev bv re. monetizing silver. livery moment's delay would endanger the safety ot the lepubllc. Mr. Ilorr, leplylng, called attention to a misstatement of the coinage nt the Car son City mint. Instead ot $112,192 the actual amount was 12,102. Mr. Halve) said that he had mistaken the $ mark for a figure, and admitted his ei ror. Mr. Ilorr continued by salng that up to the present Mr. Harvey had not said a single word in proof of the actual sub ject of dispute. He hnd irgued at length that the act of 1S73 was conceived in sin and brought forth in Iniquity, but had not brought forth any proof and could not; It did not exist. History showed that a variation of 1 per cent between the commercial and legal ratio between gold and silver nlwas drove the dearer metal out of the market. Now, with a difference of 30 per cent, what evidence was there that consensus of the civilized nations Hngland ecf pled could bring them to a paritv ; much less, how could the United States alone do It? Mr. Ilorr declared that Mr. Harvey's object was not so much to build up silver as to put down gold, as was shown by his piovlslon for leduclng tho size ot tho gold dollai. Dnllarri Not Coined. Mr. Harvey, referring back to the silver coinage between 1833 and IsTJ, said that the silver coined at Philadelphia was coined into subsidiary money, not dollars, He added that the piemlum on sliver was a premium at Ixmdou and that trans portation charges would more than eat that up, so the bullion owners In this countty vvould take it to the mints lor coinage. Taking Into consideration bank credits and checks and the amount ot money In cli dilation the noinial amount of money necessary for the tiansaction of tho busi ness thioughout tho countty, continued Mr Hnivey, was four thousand eight hun dred million dollais. of this one-third only was In money and the rest was bor rowed. The infeieme was plain: Tho normal amount of money which we should havo was four thousand eight hundred million dollais. As matteis now stand, he snid, the banks were loaning and get ting Interest on two dollars loi evei) dol lar In circulation. Ulr Ilorr 1'ropher.lei. Mr. Ilorr said that tho question of wheth er the banks were a curst to the tommy would be discussed In Its Pioper plum and Mr. Harvey would probably be ,1skuhIpi with himself when It was dono for having brought the matter up. Returning to his duseusslon, Mr Ilorr said that the statistics show that 122 man. ufacturcil articles havo depieelated In vnl ue since W, an avenigo. of 7 per cent; silver had depieelated CO per cent; some other articles had depreciated as much ow ing to special conditions. Taking up the smtenieiit In Mr. Ilarvo)'s book that It had cost J2 per ounce to pro duce the silver In tho United Status, .Mr. Ilorr characterized It us nonsense. He pre sented statistics ot dniereut mines collated by M, li. Sciidder. showing that one mine had produced at U cents per ounce; anoth er at 21 cents Tim silver mlneiH would not have continued to mine sliver at a cost of 12 per ounce when the product was worth only C'J cents, Cost nf Mining Gold. Mr. Harvey. In turn, said that what Mr, Ilorr had said about the cost of produc. lug silver, he could have said with much moro foieo with regard to gold. Silver was only produced from quartz; most of tho gold was produced fioni placer mines, It cost less, dollar for dollar, to product gold man silver, iiu tl-.u. Hum ,i uook ny ,ki Del Mar, nn opinion that, pound for pound, It cost more to nioduce silver than gold, or, dollar for dollar, sixteen to one. Why did men continue to mlno silver at u loss? Why did men gamble on the boanl of trade, wheio if large majority lost? It was the gambling Instinct implanted in the human breast. Another thlntr: Most of the silver pro duced was produced In conjunction with gold mining, and a large pioportlon of the silver pioduced was the result of at. templb to develop mines which proved fail ures In the end, nnd the losers wete dis posing of their output to try to save some thing out of tho wreck. There were, ho declared, only three or four silver mines in operation in the country, and they were having a precarious exlstence.llable to close any week. Mr. Harvey then denounced Mr. Seudder as the tool ot the bankini; interests, sent out to the silver country to defame his na tion. Mr. Ilorr declared that tho statement that It cost more to produce a pound of sllv.tr than a pound of sold was not true FOR CASH AT KEITH'S. To those who wish to pay cash for their Furniture Carpets Curtains, Rugs, Matting, etc., we offer spe cial inducements to buy now. The hot weather anil thill season must not stop our business. This big store receives lnrge shipments of goods daily, and this big store must and docs sell them. YOU KNOW That trade is improving throughout the world. YOU KNOW That all manufactured prod ucts arc advancing in price. YOU KNOW That you will need Furni ture, Carpets and Curtains this fall. WE KNOW It will pay you to buy of us now. (Iraiul Ave. and Eleventh St. and had not been true for a great many thouniul )e.irs It was true, he slid, as measured In hu man toll, both told and silver had depre ciated In value but silver had depreciated much moro than gold lie then presented statistics In Hiibstan tlatiou of tlie depreciation of gold, show ing the prices for agricultural pioduel and the wages of labor Mr Harvey took up the subject nnd pro ceeded to argue that advances In the prices of ginin under a gold bisls In the ve.us quoted, had resulted either from short eiops, or In the Increased demand brought about by lludlng new uses for It. .Mimilil do Out of (invcrmui'til Ituslncss. Mr. Harvey said the banks should go out of the government business instead of the government going out of the banking bus iness. (Applause.) Let tile banks be h.iiikH of deposit nnd discount, and not makers nf moiie). They aro making it now with bank ciedlt, and )ou are paying them In tel est for It.

Here In the United States comparing the present values to those of twenty years ago I Mini my confirmation in an an.il)sls of national wealth by the great statistician. Mr. Mulh.ill so often quoted by Mr. Harvey. In the June North American Review Mr. Mulhall sa)s that the aveiage )eaily accumulation of the iigileulttunl workris. per capita, of tho Untied States, was for the decide of IMil to 1S70.

(Applause) The answeilng of questions occupied much of the remainder of tlie day, the de lta t lln.tllv being adjourned at Mr. Ilorr's request, till Satuiduy at 1 p. in, PASTRY FOR JOHN RICHARDSON A lleport 'lhat the Kansas I'nlltli lilt Will Ho ItcgNtcr ot Vili for the 1U trie t of t'oliiiubln, Washington, July 2.-8jeclal.)

Mr, Itlchardson has little to say on the mat ter He has been here for weeks, has made one trip over to Gray Gables and It is supposed he is working his pull on Pil vate Secietary Thuiber.

Tho water works company, through Wheeler I'erkham. of Now York, will apply to Mr. Justice Hrcw er, at South IVrrlsburg, Vt., either to luol low evening or Saturday, for on np peal The appeal m.tj be granted, but In tho Judgment of Kansas Clt'.s counsel now here, tho water wotks company will not comply with the tecpilrements imposed by Mr. Justice Ilrewer, and If not, superse deas will be granted, nnd without this the National Water Works Company wilt bo powerless to prevent the city from taking Immediate' possession of the plant. The mere appeal will bo harmless. The suiiidemenl.il decree will be for warded to the clerk ot the United States cotut In Kansas C'lt) In a few days, prob ably next Siturday. The bond purchasers have notllled Kansas Clt's rcpiesenlnllves here that tho put chase money for the bonds will be sent to Kansas City Immedi ately, and will doubtless be theie by the time the oilgln.il decree an Ives. City Counselor McDougal, of Kansas City, is here and will rem iln until the light is en tirely over. Mr. Justice Ilrewer consumed nc.ulj the entile d.iv in dictating and revising his opinion in the- case. Until this time he had not iceelved data as to the amount of the different payments ot the bond pur chase money, which he has now divided Into thiee pajments ot $1,371, too, Jl,a";.i;W and $US,00O. In order to keep within the constitutional limit, bonds for tho abovo named amountH are to be delivered In tin oo dllterent b itches, at Intervals of at least ono hour. Mr. Justice Ilrewer held that the bonds to furnish money for back hjdi.int rental should be the tlrst sold. Then shall come tho $l,i-J",CCO bitch, and then the il,37l,k") lot, which will ho pro tected by the water woiks' mortgages and bonds, which will he held In escrow by Miss Utter, cleik ot the United States court In Kansas Clt). .Mr. Justice Ilrewei's decision fully cov ered all of the points in tho conttovotsy. He began with the. beginning of the liti gation In liV.il, and followed it unlit It reached tho court In which It was heaid Tuesday. ll said that the city's conten tion that the purchasers of tho water woiks bonds should be subrogated to the rights ot tho holders of tho water woiks company's securities was of no Interest to tho company. He said that if the water works company and its bondholdeis weio paid according to tho decree alieady set tled, It had no further Interest ot concern in the water woiks plant. Mr Justice' Ilrewer asked whether It was any concern of the company's If the city gavo the plant away after It had paid tor it. I tut tlie compiny, ho stated, had pi eased lis light lo bo heaid on tho points In question, and contended lhat the court should listen care fully lo any suggestions that might be Ofleiod. The lit ,st suggestion offered by the com pany. said .Mr. Justice Ilrewer, was that tho decieo was for spccllle performauco of contiuct, which It now asks the entorco ment of, and which It once disclaimed Its desire to iihld,, b). Hut the decree) did not leave this to tho capilees of cither of the contracting parties. Mr Jus lb o Ilrewer said that he did not icst matters upon simply the tonus of the decieo, however. Ho had found, by looking up tho hlsloiy of tho litigation, that the city had onco attempted to build a water woiks pi ml of Its own. and at this time the company had llled suit to pic vent such action on tho giound that the city was bound by a contract with them. The couit held that tho city was bound by tho conttnet, and tho derision was tint tho city should huj and tho com pany should sell. Mr. Justleo Ilrewer next took up tho compaiD's argument!, that tho supplemen tal dec re o nsked for wns in eftect a change In tho terms of tho original decree, which was not In tho power of the court to do. Mi. Justico Hievver said that this was a mistake, as the older aski'd lor plaits no loudens upon the water works company, nor does It In nn) way concern tho sum or the m inner of payment. The argument that tho order was not re sponsive to the Issues of tho case was not good doctrine, aeeoidlns to Mr. Justice Hrtwcr. It was a mere matter of detail and was not dlffcient from the order for appointment of a commissioner on tho part of thu ell). Tho validity of the bonds was ono point In particular which Mr. Justice Ilrewer made cli.tr. He fnld that the constitu tional provision, which left a doubt as to the validity of tho bonds was a certain clause of tho constitution, of 1S73 llmltliig munlelpal Indebtedness. o said that tho contract with tho company whereby tho clt) hud agreed to purchase tho plant or renew Its contract was made under ex press legislation. Its terms were pre scribed by the legislature and It wus not in the power of the state by a constitu tional amendment to Impair tho clt)'s obligation. As to .Mr. I.athrop's and Mr, IVckham's pleas to wait until Kansas City was. able to isue JJ.OOO.W) of bonds Mr, Justice Ilrewer said that such action vvould cause tho court to lend Its aid In Impairing tho clt)'s obligations. The suggestion that tho present bond holders bhould have a lien upon the prop erty was dismissed by Mr, Justice Hrevvcr by sajlntr that la the original decree a provision was made for the continuation of tho lien and was not taken advantage of by the bondholder. The company's con tention that the city may default In the pa)ment of the bonds when they fall due and the persons holding them may fore close the plant and In this way secure pos session, of U.jwhsu. thjcQiq q9; othcr.- wle, wns said by JuMIre Ilrewer to be nhlotlff the poslbllltle whlrh should hive been conl.lpteil w het the conttn. t with the rllj was chirred Into The plea that the valuation of the plnrt, as jtldcd bv the court of appeals, wns not nueh us to make the Investment n protlt able n It might have liwn for the com pany, was onlv n posslbllltv whl. h eon fronted ever) investment, said Mr. Julue H rower. .M'siH'i: ilitl'.M I.
