IN EXECUTIVE SESSION.

Three Important Matters Considered 40
at COnsiderable Length.
WASHINGTON, April 29.-The Senate in.
secret session to-day resumed oonsidera-
tiOn Of the nomination Of Charles RI Poll
lard, OF Indiana, to be Judge OF the Su-
preme Court OF Montana, and the Senator's
having fully digested the adverse report
in the case, all opposition was withdrawn
and the case was unanimously rejected.
A motion was made TO remove the in-
junction Of secrecy from the confirmation
OF Gen. ROsecranZ 10 be Register Of the
Treasury, which is held up pending an in
vestigation Of charges against him, by a
motion to reconsider the vote. The mo-
tion was approved on the ground that the
subcommittee on finance, which is under-
stood to consist OF Senators Aldrich and
Vance, had not yet had an OppOr-
tunlty TO examine the records Of
the Supreme Court, which, IL Is alleged,
contain the facts in the charges brought
against the nominee. The motion was.
however, pressed TO a vote, and was lost.
The resolution offered by Mr.. Morgan
several days ago to remove the injunction
OF secrecy from the vote upon the Well
and La Abra Mexican treaty was dis
cussed at considerable length
and with much vigor OF ex-
preston on both sides. The opp0-
sition TO the resolution came chiefly
II not entirely from those who voted
against the treaty, and it was so earnest
that Nr. Morgan manifested an inclna-
tiOn either 10 withdraw the resolution or
modify IL so IL will apply only To the text
of the treaty and the accompanying pa
pers, but not TO the argument or vote in
the case. The subject was not disposed
OF, no vote being taken.

Why THE WEST WANTS SILVER
The great mass of the people of the
country are in debt, without a nickel
in deposit in saving banks. Nine
tenths of the West and South are in
terest payers. Every new farm in
Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas,
Colorado, and Texas is covered by a
mortgage, and great many of these
in other Western and Southern
States are in the same condition; and
surely it would be most unfair to sac
ri6ce the agricultural interest-the
largest and most important to the
country-to the owners OF bank de-
posts in the Eastern States. The
creditors demand, first, the suspension
of silver coinage, and, second the
redemption and retirement Of the
silver dollars already coined. This
would leave gold as the only metal
money in the land, and gold is worth
40 cents in silver. After the money
system should have adjusted to suit
the Eastern interests, all Western and
Southern debts would be increased
one-ffth; $1,000 would grow to ST.
200, 800 to 1920, and so on. Is it
any wonder that the people OF the
country are opposed to this inequita-
BILE and most unreasonable scheme
