THE SILVER PROBLEM
Senator Dolph Opposes Free
Coinage,
OREGONS WISHES DlOREGAUDED
Senator Mitchell Criticises the
Speech of His Colleague--Reso-
lutions Adopted.

WAsnisoIos, May io.-Mr. Hale, from
the committee on appropriations, ro-
ported back the annual naval appro-
printion bill.
Tho silver bill was then taken mp and
Mr.. Dolph addressed the senate. Ilo
thought that international bimetallism
was desirable.
On considering the various plans pro-
posed, he was satisfied that the plan
proposed by the secretary of the treas
ury was open to less aud to fewer OBJ
jections than any Of the others. IL the
purpose was to keep both gold and sill
yer coin In circulation. He argued
against the free coinage of silver, us
something that would stop the coinage
of gold, but remarked that what he said
In regard to ireo coinage did not, of
course, apply to free coinage under an
International agreement establishing the
ratio between GOLD and silver.
At the close of Mr.. Dolph's speech
Mr.. Teller criticised 1t, and said that IL
would not do for that senator, or any
other senator. to say with junction that
he was for double standard, or for sill
YER and then favor measures that were
absolutely destructive ofsilvcr as money.
lie did not propose that the country
should be deceived into believing that the
proposition which came from tho finance
committee meant SILVER at ALL ON the
contrary, !, meant single gold stand
ard.
Mr.. Mitchell expressed his dissent
from the Views expressed by his col
league (Do'ph) saying In part;
The two state conventions
that recently met in Ore
gon, each resolved unanimously. without
hesitation or equiyocation, that they
were in favor of the free aud unlimited
coinage OF silver. believe That each Of
those conventions was composed OF rep
rrscntatiye men. Irrespective ofpartles,
tue people of our state believe In adopt
ing those resolutions. They voiced the
sentiment almost universally of the peo-
pie of Oregon. Therefore. do not de-
sire It to 30 out that my colleagues
speech here on this question voices the
whole of the sentimnnt OF the state, or
even so far as the representation OF that
state is con ncerned on this floor"
On motion of Mr.. Wilson, OF Iowa, II
WIS ordered that the senate bill subject
ing Imported liquors to the provisions of
the laws of the several states be taken
up to morrow.
After tie morning business was dis
posed OF the senate went into executive
session and then adjourned.

nethy To n REVIEW reporter yester-
day, "all the ledge rock stands OH

and vicinity the rock all lies level.
A few days ago took IA trip out

weeks ago | was In this city In COM
pauy with Mr.. Fox. who was
here In the interests OF the Standard
Oil Company, and he Informed
me then that there was no ques.
tion but that both natural gas and
coal oil could undoubtedly be found
about eight miles from this city.
He also Informed me that the same
ledge of limestone runs under the
city, and that by boring In the city
the same could be found, us well as
outside, eight miles distant. He
further went on TO state that you
would have to bore from 500 10 800
feet, according to the depth of this

wherever there Is any limestone
rock, n certain percentage of that Is

WHAT 1T WOULD COST.
"How much would Il cost to bore,

asked the reporter.
1T would cost In the neighbor.

bodies were brought up, were most
besrtrending, women rushing to the
mouth Of the pit, wringing their hands
and crying as they tried to recognize the
remains brought up one at time on
stretchers.
The body of Michael Henry. known
to be under an immense pile of debris,
may not be found for several DAYS.

this morning In great agony.

as there was a good current of air going
through the chamber where the men
had taken refuge after the cave-in had

separated from the others and advised
them to follow. but they refused. They
then walked along the ganaway on their
way out by the abandoned opening
through which the rescuing party On,

the surface, Aliens naked lamp
set fire " the gas, and an explosion
occurred. In the meantime the others
who had refused to follow were waiting
