Senate approves silver coinage bill amid bi metal push
The Senate passed the House bond bill substitute by 43 to 34. The measure would coin standard silver dollars and issue silver certificates, redeem greenbacks and Treasury notes in silver or gold, and end small-denomination bank notes. It argues the act would replace the gold standard, boost farm and factory prices, and favor Nevada Republicans to urge the House to pass it.
