Gold bonds or nothing in Cleveland policy debate
From the Washington dispatch it is stated that President Cleveland favors gold bonds and opposes any financial plan offering mixed or silver-based terms. The debate centers on a proposed thirty year 4 percent gold bond issue and possible 3 percent bonds, with silver advocates pushing for alternative measures and arbitration petitions. The article notes legislative hurdles, including party opposition and a looming end to the congressional session, while touching on canal and railroad pooling debates and the Hawaiian cable amendment. It closes with a note on a blizzard impact, relief funds, and a broader warning about international interference.
