Debts and silver crisis prompt bimetallic plea in Chicago
Cimcaod April 16 Mr W H Har vey chairman of the executive committees of the Bimetallic league in Chicago prepared yesterday a reply to President Cleveland's letter. The Chicago committee says the petitioners misrepresented the city and that rising prices harm farmers and wage earners. The letter argues that demonetization of silver and a gold standard hurt debtors by requiring more property to be pledged to pay debts. It claims the creditors' influence dominates policy and urges restoring prices to ease debts and revive home ownership.
