cipa OF tho bonds In silver. before adjournment
tomorrow. though tho session may be CON
tlnued until late at night. as a number OF Som
ators are In favor OF remaining In session. in
order to reach q vote. and several desire to
speak upon II before tho final vote shall be
taken. The friends OF the measure claim that
1t will be passed without amendments, and 1t
will then go to tho House Of Representatives
for tho concurrence Of that body. The only
Senators absent are Messrs. Patterson. Sharon.
Ingalls, and Garland. Mr.. Patterson is detained
at home by sickness and Mr.. Sharon has not
been in attendance this session. Messrs. In
gals and Garland have been absent from the
city recently. but may return before the vote is
taken tomorrow The pending question is on

tnued from day TO day until disposed Of Be-
fore that date, however, Mr.. Matthews sub

Mr.. Matthews said he hoped the Senate would
