Vance's Bill Providing for System of Ware.

Vance's Bill Providing for System of Ware.
houses Throughout the Country.
WASHINGTON, April 22.-The Senate
Committee on Agriculture and Forestry to-
day had under consideration Senator
Vance'S bill to provide for sy stem of
warehouses for farm produce throughout
the country to be operated by the Govern
ment, which is to issue notes on deposits of
grain therein.
Colonel Polk, President of the National
Farmers Alliance, read long argument in
support of the measure, and sketched the
decline in agricultural values in face of the
marvellous progress and development of
other industries and interests during the
past two decades, and insisted that some
thing should be done for the farmer. He
blamed the financial system of the
Government for this condition of
affairs which resulted in high
priced money and low-priced products.
The remedies Colonel Polk suggested were:
First, to restore silver to its dignity aud
place as money metal, with all the rights
of coinage and all the qualities of legal
tender which gold possesses; second, to is
sue sufficient amounts of currency direct
to the people, at a low rate Of interest, to
meet the legitimate demands of the busi-
legal tender for all debts, public and pri-
vate; and third, to secure to such issues
equal dignity with money metals by baSng
1t on real, tangible, substantial values.
Colonel Polk was followed By DR.. G. W.
McCune, Chairman of the National Com
mittee on Legislation of the Alliance, who
asserted that merchandise thus stored
would not deteriorate below the market
standard, and that the system had proved
feasible and practicable in California,
where the Changers Bank in 1889 loaned
S3,OO00O0 on certificates issued to farmers
on wheat deposited in warehouses owned
and controlled by them

PACIFIC MAIL TERMINUS.
Efforts Of Competing Roads to Secure The
Oriental Trade.

New YORK, April 22.-The Mail and Ex-
press says: The personal feelings Of Mr..
Gould are complicating the affairs of the
Pacific Mail The Northern Pacific is
anxious to compete with the Canadian Pa
cifc in the China and Japan trade by Sc
curing the Pacific Mail terminus at Tacoma.
Gould is only too willing to make Tacoma
the only terminus. while Huntington's in
terests in the Central Pacific will not per-
nit him to take the other line entirely away
from San Francisco. Gould's object is to
take away business from the Union Pacific
and the Northern Pacific is ready to guar
antee the steamship company $4,000 a
month If 1t will make Tacoma its terminus
Nothing is settled get.
The Commercial Advertiser on the same
subject says: The buying of Northern Pa
clfc stock to-day was done by tie strong
parties. The point on which the stock was
bulled was the proposed contract with the
Pacific Mail for the Tacoma terminus. The
story in the street was that the Northern
Pacific authorities have offered to guaran-
tee the Pacific Mail Company SIS. 600 per
month III consideration of the change. The
sum named is higher than will be seriously
considered. The guarantee of smaller
sum VIII. however, undoubtedly be offered
together with terminal facilities for the yes
sells. 1t may be stated ON excellent author
ity that Willard and Huntington are much
nearer together in the matter than has been
supposed. IL Huntington withdraws his
opposition the change may be made

Many Petitions for the Free Coinage of Sill

Many Petitions for the Free Coinage Of Sill
ver-Plumb's Resolution.
WASHINGTON, April %. - Several petit
tions favoring free coinage of silver were
received by the Senate to-day.
The Pensions Committee made favorable
reports on about twenty private pension
bills.
A resolution was adopted authorizing ten
more employees for the Senate.
Cockrel offered a resolution, which was
agreed to. directing that the Superintendent
of Census communicate to the Senate the
forms of the rules and regulations adopted
by him for obtaining statistics as to farm
mortgages.
At 12:40 o'clock Plumb called up his con-
current resolution as follows:
THAT the Secretary of the Treasury be
directed to increase the Treasury purchase
and coinage OF silver bullion to the maxi
mum amount authorized by the act to au-
thorlZe the coinage OF standard silver dollars
and restore their legal-tender character,
which act was passed over the veto of the
President and became a law February 2S,
1878"
Eustis offered as an amendment an addi-
tlonal resolution reciting that the country
demanded the free coinage Of silver. and
that therefore all acts restricting silver
coinage should be repealed.
Without taking action on the resolution,
PIunlO gave way III order to allow Mitchell
to address the Senate on his resolution pro-
viding for an amendment to the ConsIitu-
ton authorizing the election of United
States Senators by the people.
Mitchell took the floor and spoke for over
an hour, in which time he reviewed the
history of the country and made forcible
arguments for his resolution.
After Mitchell concluded, the District Of
Columbia Appropriation Bill occupied the
remainder of the day.
The Senate went into executive session
at $40 O'Clock and soon after adjourned.
