comments on conklinr.

Washington. June l2.-In view of
the substantially unanimous republican
vote for the army appropriation bill in
the house of representatives yesterday,
and the now conceded certainty that
the president will sign it, there is much
unfavorable comment in republican cir
cles concerning the position assumed
by Conkling in objecting to its refer
ence to senate committee to-day.
The opposition thus threatened by him,
will, if joined by other prominent re-
publican senators, have no effect except
to somewhat prolong the session and to
reopen to some extent the breach be-
tween that portion of the republican
party and the president which has late
ly been healed. 1t is conjectured that
this is in fact Conkling's desire, for he
and many other advocates of Grants
nomination for the presidency, are
known to look with uneasiness and dis
favor upon President Hayes rapidly
growing reputation as 4 ''stalwart. :"
and he may be expected hereafter to re-
fer to the presidents signature to the
caucus army bill as another illustration
of his alleged want of backbone. 1t is
doubtful whether more than one of the
three appropriation bills will be put
through the senate during the short re-
mainder Of this week. A final adjourn
ment on Tuesday, as proposed by the

Vienna, June 12.-Russia has pre-

two steamers, six small gunboats, and
six torpedo boats. These vessels will

There may he a question whether it
is allowable under the treaty of Berlin
for the Bulgarians TO maintain a war

London, June PA Vienna cores
pOndent to the London Economist
makes the following illusions to the
rumor that Germany is likely to use q
portion of her hoard of silver for the
purpose of increasing the circulation of
that metal: ''It is now about q week
since these strange rumors were in
circulation in Berlin as to the proba-
bility of revision of the currency act
We have received private communica-
tions from Berlin that confirm these
rumors. 1t is feared that Bismarck
will attempt to change the currency act,
which, after so many difficulties, has at
last been happily put into effect.
The sale of silver at the hands OF the
German government has ceased, and
this certainly proves that something
out Of the common run is going on.
The Bourses themselves have been
somewhat influenced by the rumors cir
culating and the notion that any change
would necessarily be followed by rise
in the price of silver. A large amount
of silver rente has been bought in the
course of the week, so that its price,
which was recently almost on par
with paper rente, has again risen.
