WASHINGTON, June 6.
SENATE.

Mr.. Coke asked Mr.. Bayard, Chairman
Of the Finance Committee, what action
had been taken on the silver bill. He
had understood that the Committee had
agreed to postpone its consideration un-
til December.
Mr.. Bayard did not feel authorized to
say what had taken place in the Com
mittee. He would only say that no
member had been instructed to report q
bill.
Mr.. Boke then said that his sense of
duty led him to offer resolution to dis
charge the Committee from further con-
sideration of the bill, and to declare the
bill before the Senate for action.
Messrs. Edmunds, Whyte and others
objected, and the resolution went over.
Mr.. Edmunds resumed his remarks on
the bill to repeal sections Sol, $40 and
S2l of the Revised Statutes.
The question recurred on MIR. Bay
ards motion TO recommit the bill.
Mr.. Voorhees, opposed the motion.
Mr.. Davis, of Illinois, favored it, and
was surprised that there was any oppo-
sition to it. The object was simply to
perfect the bill All he wanted was the
repeal of the sections, and to get good
jury law.
The result of the vote was, yeas 10,
nays 81, so the motion was lost.
The bill was then passed-yeas %,
nays l6, strict party vote.
Adjourned until Monday.

ought by himself, and is very strong

sought by himself, and is a very strong
, one.
General Americas V. Rice, nominee
for Lieutenant Governor, was born in
Ashland county, in this State, IN 1886,
and consequently at the present time Is
43 years of age. He entered the service
at the first call for troops in 1861, as a
private, was promoted through the
several grades to Colonel, and was
brevetted Brigadier-General for bravery.
He was desperately wounded at the bat
tie of Shiloh, but continued in the field
and lost leg at the battle OF KennesaW
Mountain. His present home is at
Ottawa, Putnam county, where he Is a
partner in a private banking house. lie
has served several terms in Congress,
and was the author of the famous Ar
rears of Pension" bill. He is man OF
fine presence, good ability and extreme
ly popular, especially with the soldier
element.
For Justice of the Supreme Court
the nominee, Judge VIM. j. Gilmore,
of Preble county, is just closing tiye
years term upon the Supreme Bench,
having previously been Judge Of the
Common Court for for several terms.
He is a fine jurist, and his renomina-
ton gives unusual satisfaction.
The nominee for Auditor OF State Is
Hon. Charles Reemelin, OF Cincincin-
natl, a German and man in every way
above reproach. He is a man OF fine
ability, and although he has been lit
tlo unstable in politics, having been
connected with almost every political
party for the past quarter OF a century,
he has finally brought up and come to
stop in the Democratic party.
The candidates for Treasurer, Attor-
ney-General and Member OF the Board
of Public Works, the former two being
denominations, are Anthony Howells,
Isaiah Pillars and Patrick O'Marah, re-
spectively, and they are good nomlna-
tiuns, at least the first and last named.
GENERAL NOTES.
The ticket is we'll received everywhere
and the Republicans admit that 1t will
give them a hard struggle II they
hope to beat it. But they can't
do 1t, and the second Tuesday OF October
next will witness a brilliant Democratic
victory. The campaign will not be
opened formally for several week yet,
but the key note has been sounded on
either side-fOr the Democrats at their
ratification meeting last night and for
the Republicans by Hon. Chas. Foster,
nominee for Governor, in response to a
serenade in this city tonight.
had talk with Gen. A. Saunders
Piatt, the nominee of the Nationals for
Governor, on the train between this
city and Springfield this morning, in
the course of which, in answer to
an interrogatOry on the subject, he said
he expected to receive 100000 votes
if the farmers and those who believe in
purity of government, etc, will only do
their duty. 1t will not be well for the
Nationals of West Virginia, however,
to put too much confidence in these
boasts for they will do well il they get
5000 votes in the State. FLAMEN.
General Rice's Acceptance.
CoLUMBUs, June ct is currently re-
ported here that General Rice will hold
in allegiance his acceptance of the nom
nation until it is decided whether John
G. Thompson will be chosen to manage
the campaign.

HOUSE.

The army appropriation bill was re
ported and reCOmmitted.
The House then went into Committee
OF the Whole upon the bill making ad-
ditional appropriations for the Postofice
Department.
Mr.. Cox characterized the bill as the
meanest one he had ever seen. There
was nothing so mean, so parsimonious,
so coarse and so dispicable as to bring
in bill to repeal law passed at the
last session and to cut down the pay Of
men who were worked fourteen hours q
day in New York city, because the
gentleman from Illinois Cannonl did
not want that sort OF work OH the
prairie. Laughter.l
Mr.. Cannon replied that the gentle
man from New York Cox wanted to
get into some despicable demagogical
position and to get some shouts from
the slums of New York city.
Mr.. Cox (alluding to the favorite ges-
ture of Cannon's) 's)-Don't shake your
finger at me. 1t scares me. Laughter J
Mr.. CannOn-That is twice told wit.
AS the gentleman once said TO Gen.
Butler, the gentleman is deCaying in
his old age. Laughter.l
Mr.. Munroe opposed the bill. lie
was in favor Of the free delivery system
as being an instrument of civilization
and thought it should be introduced
into the young cities Of the country.
In regard to the pay of carriers he did
not believe that 81 900 and $500 was
too much. 1t was not cent too much
for faithful, honest and upright men
who gave the best they had to the ser
vice of their country. Applause
The debate was continued by Messrs.
Townsend, of Ohio, Keller and Stone,
after which, without action on the bill,
thecommittee rose and the House adj
iourned.

price flor very good wool, however
