important possible political effect.
When the nomination of Mr.. Hilliard,
of Georgia, to be Minister to Brazil was
reached, the minority report of the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations was called
up, and Senators Hamlin, Conkling and
Howe, who constituted this minority,
subjected Mr.. Hilhard's character to .
most extensive firing, going over a
period of nearly twenty years.
He was confirmed by a vote of 2S yeas

number Of the democrats were obliged to

Special to the Baltimore Sun.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.-The fact that
Mr. Blaine proposed TO deliver a speech
ON the all-absorbing silver question bay,
ing been pretty well advertised for sever
al days past, had the desired effect.
When Mr.. Blaine rose to-day he ad-
dressed an audience which has not often
been surpassed In point of numbers In
the Senate chamber. Mr.. Blaine adyo-
Gated proposition which he was frank
enough 10 admit he knew had no chance
OF passage. His reasons for its advocacy
were plausible. He planted himself
most dexterously between the two sides
OF the silver question, and hereafter he

statesmanlike.
THE PRESIDENT AND SILVER MEN.
Within the last week the President
has had several conferences with Sena-
tors and others interested in the silver
bill, with a view to the arrival at an un-
derstanding whereby some measure can
be agreed upon which will meet the ex>
ecutive approval. These efforts are the
renewal Of those made some time since.
SO far no result has been reached, but
the hope is still entertained by those

The STANDARD on Suit.

PrrspuRGH, February 2l.-In the
case OF 81. L. Taylor and others against
the Standard Oil Company before the
Butler Court, the evidence in shape Of
affidavits in support OF the application
for a dissolution and the appintment Of
a Receiver was closed this morning, and
Geo. Shiras, jr., opened the case for the
plaintiffs with a strong argument. MIR.
McJunkin replied in behalf Of the de-
iendants, and the court took recess.
In the afternoon Mr.. Campbell, for the
defense, addressed the court, principally
on points OF law. He was followed by
Mr.. Woods, also for the defense, on points
Of law and fact, closing the argument for
the defense.
The argument for plaintiffs was closed
BY Mr.. Acheson, and the court announced
that it would hold the matter under con.
sidera,ion. The case has excited general
interest in the oil country, and the court
room was crowded during the hearing.
Among those present wsre John D. Rock
aieller, William Brough, J. J. Wander
grit, Charles Lockhars, and many other
very prominent oil men. The Chrontele
Of this evening publishes an interview

dard Oil Company in this city. They
stated that SO far as they could deter.
mine the new movement was merely
eide issueland would have no effect on the
general business OF the company. In re-
gard to the rumor current that several OF
the large refners in New York were also
withdrawing from the company, 1t was
stated that it was untrue. There were
no retiners that could withdraw and none
Of them SO lar as lie knew had expressed
any desire to pursue such course. He
thought, In view Of the recent conflict, il
was quite natural that producers in the
oil regions should sympathize with those
who have instituted proceedings, but
however they may terminate the compa-
nv would remain intact.
