McGarrahan having claimed with equal emphasis that

lively that the de sheet of this document Is not

thus positive because the words "Panoche Grande,'

The Senate Finance Committee have q nice point to
decide next week when they vote on the ques-
ton OF report the House bill repeating tho Re-
sumption act, which has been before them several
weeks The majority Of tho committee will, it is
understood, make an adverse report II they
any; but there IS disposition to make all
and allow the bill to rest in the committee. Those
who think this the urge that any report

sion tho Senate, which, while 1t will help the
inAat,onists pass the bill, will yet alarm
tho country and thus check the recovery
OF confidence which now promises SO we'll
Some Of the opponents of resumption also
agree this policy tho ground that only fair
10 let Secretary Sherman work out his plans unob-
structed, but that the bill remaining in the committee
u can shen be called up at any time during tho
II untoward events should defeat M Shcrman's hopes
and plans.
Tho friends Of resumption think that It would be tho
wiscst course TO discourage all further debates
currency questions, and all attempts at currency
legisaton tending to alarm the country and hinder
tho OF Secretary shcrman's plabs. Some OF
them will advise him 10 recall the wish he
expressed the Senate Finance Committee for
legislation allowing him sell four per cents
for gresnbacks. and TO accept greenbacks
for duties after the LIST Of july These
not believed TO be necessary the Secrc-
tary's success and will be represented 10 him that
TO bring in bills authorizing them will perhaps arouse
a discussion OF financial questions. majority
OF the Finance Committee understood TO be willing
report favorably such measures, II the Secretary
~agl
the OF redeemed legal tenders, after resump-
tion, but at par with gold.
Thero 10. however, reason for tho country 10 be
uneasy II q new currency debate should arise. No
bill adverse to tho present policy OF the Treasury
Department get two-thrds in both houses and
every such bill would, Of course, be vetoed. The
recent success Of Secretary Sherman In Now York
has greatly strengthened the Treasury policy for re-
sumption in both houses, and many who are opposed
TO II and do believe 1t succeed feel elves
bound at any rate TO give It fair play and uDmpedsd
chancc TO succeed. II Is felt that the country would
resent any attempt TO interfere with Mr.. Sher.
maa's plans rs these SO fully promise success. :.
