Senate silver committee stuck in session with no progress
The Senate Republican silver committee met for two hours but failed to resolve differences on a measure to be reported to caucus. The dispute centers on a proviso in section two granting bullion purchase note holders the right to demand bullion in exchange while leaving Treasury discretion to honor the demand, a point critics say weakens note value. Supporters argue the proviso protects the secretary and Treasury, as both sides remain far apart.
