WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON. April l2.-At we'll at
tended caucus Of Republican Senators this
afternoon there was interchanged views
concerning the course of the minority in
regard to the army appropriation bill. No
formal action was taken, but it was agreed
that every possible effort should be made
to defeat the passage OF the bill 10 its pre-
sent shape, for the reason mainly that the
enactment Of the sixth would prevent the
use of posse c0nsitdtus on election days for
execution of civil processes of any and all de-
scriptions issued by United States authori-
| ty. Several other provisions of the bill
| were also considered very Objectionable
and in need of essential amendments, section
among them the clauses which prohibit
appointments and promotions In the army
until otherwise provided by law, while at
the same time the bill holds out induce
ments for the creation of additional vacan-
cies by providing that all officers hereafter
retired by reason of wounds shall be retired
upon the highest ranks respectively held
by them in the regular or volunteer service
before retirement. A number of Senators
expressed their belief that the purpose oi
these provisions is to pave the way for the
appointment into the army of friends OF
the dominant party in Congress. Although
no propositions were formally adopted, ,sey.
eral amendments to the sixth section, oi
which notice has been given in the Senate
! where spoken of with general favor, espec
tally those submitted by EBlaiue and Pad
dock. From the tenor Of the remarks il
; lit seems probable many speeches will b.
made upon the army bill
, Judge Kelley has prepared and will
Mondayintroduce in the House of Repre-
sentatives under call Of States, if Pennsyl
vania be reached, bill which is designed
I, to remedy the inconvenience and losses oc
casioned to workmen and retail dealers b.

denominations of silver coinage. 1t pro
poses to require the treasury and all sub
o tire asuries of the United States to redeem

also provides that the further coinage {
