THE FIFTY-FIRsT CONGRESS. Passage of the House silver Bill In the senate-The RiIl Much Changed In DetaiI-A Number of Amendments Adopted and Rejeeted-How the Sen- at0rs voted-Work of the House.
 wAsu1naToN, D. O., June 17.-After the transaction of unimportant business to-day the house silver bill was taken up and MT. Wolcett addressed the senate in advocacy of immediate silver legislation. He criticised the unfriendly attitude of the administration toward the silver question and said that when Mr. Harrison was nominated his record was searched in vain for any noteworthy act or saying and that the Latin sentence "Stat mag nj nominis umbra" applied to him. He ven- tured the..opinion that If the presidents pos- ition on the silver question had been an- nounced before the last election not single state west of the Missouri river would have given republican majority, not because 8 majority of the people of those states were not true and staunch and earnest Hepubli- cans, but because they would have wished to as their standard bearer one who was un- mindful of the interests of the country and disregardful of the will of the great majority of the members of the party. An open foe was to be preferred to a secret enemy.
 At the conclusion of Mr. Wolcott's speech the senate proceeded to vote on the amend ments reported by the finance committee. The first was to strike out the provision that the treasury notes issued for the purchase of silver shall be legal tender in payment of ! all debts, public and private. The amend- ment was rsjected-yeas IA, nays 60-and the provision remains in the bill. The fol- lowing is the vote in detail:
