WASHINGTON, December 7.-Mr. Hayes
recommendations for the retirement of
legal tender notes. and the recoinage OF
standard silver dollars into coin of in
trinsic value, are received with great
disfavor by the Western Republicans gen.
orally, and will encounter so much opposi-
ton from the great bulk of the Democrats,
in both Houses, that there is no possibility
Of success during this session Of Congress
for any legislation Of the character indi-
Gated. 1t seems to be practically certain
also that there will be no tariff legislation
this winter. beyond possibly q tariff com
| mission. The enactment of q funding bill
may be expected, and the chances favor
| the passage Of some reapportionment meas
ures. But aside from these matters, the
universal disposition seems to be TO on
fine the coming session to the regular an
| nual appropriations, bills, and ordinary
routine work, and thus avoid what might
otherwise prove a necessity for an extra
session.

does it increase wages. Fourth. il builds
up one citizen at the expense Of another.

from the high seas and Seventh, it in
creases smuggling.
