WASIuNGToN, ID. c., July IL
Lost night the senate resumed con
sideration Of the conference report
on the silver bill and was addressed
by Morgan in opposition to the re-
port. He expected today was to be
the crisis i'm the question of the cur
rency Of the United States, As much
80 in regard To the characterization
ofsilver aud cohiining Of coin TO
single gold standard as was the act
of 1873. H. did not know what
would be the effect Of the yot. to be
taken to-day. fit should result in
the adoption ofthe conference bill II
would not be really more fatal to the
prospect of silver cDiuage IN the
future than the act Of 1913. The
legislation OF 1873 had been the cold
blooded assassination Il the silver
dollar. II had been pre-iied over
bv the same senator whose niue
Italian hand was to bc seen Ia tue

departure from the action of both
the house and the srnlte, aud was

laVs, no senator would be permitted
to find it out.
This statement was cbolle,. ..... .
aud caused some side talk b,. v,,r
.Iorgan, Allison aud sherman.
Morgan resumed his argument
against the conference bill, and he
called ih- slleution of the friends of
free c'in 'ye, especially of the sen-
ator from Colorado Teller to tie
tact that the same Cine Italian
hand' which framed the act of 1879
operated in the conference bill to
destroy utterly any hora of the
reconciliation of silver SO loag as il
remained unrepealed He predicted
that when the others of the con.
ferees came To realize what they had
done they would feel like kicking
( themselves over ten-acre field
The bill would monometalize the
country; it would make gold the
only thing with which to pay debts
or buy any property. The craft os the
senator from Ohio could not latter
twelve-months consideration" have
fixed up bill that would more
Thoroughly destroy silver forever as
money.
Morgan spoke for three hours and
closed with an appeal to the senators
not to elbow the senator from Ohio
(Sherman) to thrust his sliletto
again into silver.
Call also argued against the con
ference report.
Plumb spoke in its favor. The
conference bill would give the
country as much money during The
next year as free coinage would give.
The bill is long step in the right
direction.
Plumb SAID it was his belief if the
bill becomes law so nicely and
easily will it work and so helpful
will it be to all the people of the
United States that the next step will
be free coinage, he would vote for
the conference bill regretting it is no
better, aud glad it is no worse

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Feb. ga wind
panied by hail and rain, swept over this
section of the country yesterday, doing
an immense amount of damage to prop

but no material damage was done.
Brownsville. Tenn. fifty-siX miles north
east of this city, was the worst sufferer
SO far reported. The storm struck the
town while its inhabitants slept. and
had done Its terrible work before the
real situation was realized. 1t came
from southweSterly direction and
was preceded by rumbling noise,
which lasted a few seconds, and then
burst upon the town in appalling fury.
Residences rocked like cradles and
heavy brick buildings trembled like
leaves as the storm swept by in its i'm
petuous career. leaving wreck and de-
struetion everywhere. While the storm
ragged, the rain fell in torrents, vivid
lightning flashed across the iurid skies
and heavy thunder added to the fear and
confusion of the horror-Stricken people.
Daylight revealed the frightful work of
the cyclone. Almost every building on
the public square was unroofed. causing
