Cordial Reception.

Cordial Reception.
BRUSSELS, June 5.-The Duke Of Orleans.
who was released from Clairvaux prison in
France Tuesday night aud conducted to the
Swiss frontier, arrived in this city this
morning. He was met at the railroad
station by ono Of the royal carriages and
conveyed to the palace, where he took
breakfast with King Leopold.
WHY HE WAS RELEASED.
PARIS, June 5.-In the Chamber of Dep
uties to-day Dumay, socialist, asked the
government what had prompted it to re-
lease the Duke of Orleans while the fathers
OF families, victims of an evil political
system, were still in prison. Russian social
lists, he said, had been arrested in France in
compliance with the governments reac-
tionary policy.
M. de Freycinet, president of the council
and minister of war. replied that the release
or the Duke OF Orleans had nothing to do
with politics. The idea Of releasing him
occurred to President Carnot when he was
passing Clairvaux prison ON his recent
tour. The public, NJ. de Freycinet declared,
was strong enough not to shrink from an
act of clemency. Pardoas had been
granted recently for offenses committed
by the strikers and more would follow.
NJ. de freycinet demanded that the House
vote an order of the day, which was agreed
to by 3l3 yeas to 1874 nays. M. Fer7oul aud
other labor deputies proposed urgency for
discussion of the question of granting full
amnesty to the imprisoned strikers This
was rejected, the vote standing 3l2 against
TO l4l Tor the proposition.

FREE COINAGE OF SILVER
BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS DIS
CUSS THE SAME SUBJECT.

Hiscock and Sherman Opposed to the
Principle-Hiscock Favors the Bill
Reported by Jones of Nevada-Sher-
man Certain that Gold Would be
Demonetized.
WASHINGTON, June SIN the Senate
this morning the silver bill was taken up,
and Mr.. Hiscock addressed the Senate in
opposition to free coinage of silver. In his
Judgment gold and silver could not approx
innate nearer than 20 per cent, and be
doubted whether they could approximate
nearer than they were at present. He fay
ored the bill reported from the finance
committee by the senator from Nevada
(Mr. jones', and he could not but feel that
that senator had made great mistake 10
disowning its paternity.
Mr.. Sherman said that he had not in
tended to address the Senate till there was
a practical measure before It: because the
bill reported from the finance committee
was only an uneasy ghost wandering with
out father, without company, without a
guide, with no one to call for a vote upon
it, and no one to demand solution of the
difficult question. But as he was COM
PEELED to be absent from the chamber
himself Of the present opportunity of saying
what he had to say, now, rather than at
some future time He then proceeded to
read a written speech on the subject.
EFFECT OF FREE COINAGE.
At one point in his speech he said it was
claimed that the effect of the coinage of
silver would be to advance the price.
He denied it; its result would be
to demonetize gold, and cause gold
to be boarded or exported. Free coinage Of
silver would be a reversal of the established
policy of the government from the begin
ming. 1t would limit coinage to a single
metal, aud that was silver. As sure as fate
silver would, with free coinage, be the only
standard Of monay in the United States.
The United States would, if it
entered on that experiment, detach
itself from the great civilized and christian
nations of the world and take its
place with China. Japan, India and South
America. A pound sterling would be worth
So instead of 81 81, and the American dollar
would be, as in colonial times, worth three
English shillings or four francs. In conclu-
sion Mr. Sherman said that he would vote
for any measure that would in his
judgment secure and maintain a
bi-metallic standard-one that would
not demonetize gold or cause it to be
boarded or exported, but that would estab-
lish both gold and silver as common
standard at a fixed ratio not only in the
United States, but in all the nations of the
world.
The discussion was continued by Messrs.
Teller, Stewart and Aldrich.
The bill then went over.
Several private pensions and bridge bills
were taken from the calendar and passed.
Mr.. Blair introduced bill to prohibit
the expectation of alcoholic liquors to
Africa and the islands of the Pacific ocean.
1t was referred.
The Senate then adjourned.

MONEY FOR THE WATERWAYS.
The Bill Expected to be Ready for the
Sanara In a Weak

Senate In Week.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-The Senate CON-
nittee on commerce is working on the river
and harbor bill all the time that its mem
bers can spare from the sessions of the SEN
ate. Various senators, who advocate in
creased appropriations for improvements
in which they are especially interested, are
being heard by the committee. At the
present rate of progress it is believed that
the committee will have the Dill ready to
report to the Senate by the last Of next
week. The present indications are that the
total amount OF the appropriations will not
vary greatly from the total Of the bill as it
passed the House.

IRISH LAND PURCHASE.

oSCACthIy DdlIOuT ODJoCLS TO Shelving
the Measure.
LONDON, June Sit is stated that at the
cabinet council to-day Secretary Balfour
strongly objected to the shelving of the land
purchase bill, to which other members do
sired to give precedence, and that in conse-
quence OF Secretary Balfour's remon-
strances the publicans bill has been laid aside
for the present. There is no doubt that con-
siderable friction exists among the members
of the cabinet.
THE GLADsToNIAN LEADERS.
The Gladstonian leaders, after consulting
with the Parnellites, have agreed to move
an instruction to the committee on the land
purchase bill, empowering them to provide
for the creation of elective councils In
ireland to carry out the provisions of the

purchase bill will be pushed by Mr.. Morley
In the House Of Commons Mr.. Goschen
announced that he would proceed with the

cate the shelving Of the licensing bill, which
it thinks will probably be given precedence
after the tithes, land purchase and licensing
bills have reached the committee stage.

HEARINGS ON THE TARIFF.
Tobacconists Making Big Fight 70

ToDacconlStS MAKING a Big Fight Tor
an Amendment.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-Opening the
doors Of the Senate finance committee to
the importers yesterday has had the effect
of bringing down upon the committee hosts
of people interested in the tariff bill, who
desire to make statements. In consequence
Of the demands of this class the committee
made no progress this morning in the con-
sideration of the schedules of the bill. Mr..
Moen, Of the firm of Washburn & Moen Of
Worcester, Mass. was before the committee
for a short time, advocating free steel
blooms and revision of the duty on wire,
by a reduction Of some grades, and an in
crease on Others.
THE TOBACCO SCHEDULE.
Tremendous pressure is being brought to
bear upon the committee to secure change
In the paragraph fixing duty on leaf to-
bacco suitable for cigar wrappers at So a
pound If not stemmed, and So 70 pound if
stemmed. The paragraph makes a whole
bale of tobacco In which single leaf suit
able for wrappers may be found dutiable at
the rates named.
A DELEGATION FROM FLORIDA.
A delegation of Florida cigarmakers was
before the committee to-day urging that
this be changed SO that only leaf suitable
for wrappers shall be subject to the high
rate of duty. 1t Is believed that the COM
mittee will report an amendment which,
while affording adequate protection to
native tobacco growers, will at the same
time enable manufacturers of Havana
cigars in this country to continue their bust
ness, which has grown to great proportions.
THE AFTERNOON SESSION.
It was after o'clock when the republican
members of the committee assembled in
the committee room and resumed work on
the bill. No effort was made to confine
themselves to any one schedule, but half
dozen or more subjects were considered,
and the members say some progress was
made No one hos ventured prediction
since Monday that the bill will be reported
to the Senate this week.

HALFORD HOLDS A PROXY.
He Can Take John O. News Place al
Quay's Dinner Parties.

He Can Take John O. News Place at
Quay's Dinner Parties.
WASHINGTON, June Sit is said that
Private Secretary Halford holds the proxy
of his intimate friend and former employer,
John G. New, Of Indiana, as a member of
the national republican committee, while
Mr.. New is acting as consul general in
London. John G. New is also a member of
the executive committee of the republican
national committee, and, therefore, if he
had been in Washington, would have been
entitled to an invitation to Chair
man Quays dinner party last Friday
night. Politicians were discussing, with
some interest, whether Senator Quay took
pains not to invite Proxy Halford, or
whether Proxy Halford took pains not to
attend.
MIGHT HAVE BEEN UNCOMFORTABLE.
II he had been there he would prob
ably have had very uncomfortable
time, for the one thing In which all
reports of that meeting agree is
in the course OF the comments on the ad-
ministation. Either Proxy Halford would
have to listen ia uncomfortable silence, or
would have had to fight against the over
whelming odds. So perhaps it is just as
well he was not there, but 1t is interesting
to know that he can be present at Senator
Quay's official dinner parties whenever the
President desires it. His active participa-
ton in politics would surprise no one, for it
is what is expected OF the officers Of this adj
ministration.
