A DUBIOUS OUTLOOK.
Little Prospect Of a Free Coinage Bill This
SeSSiOn-Sherman'S Views.

New YORK, Dec. ia Commercial Bull
letln Washington special says: Reed still
holds the helm in the House aud is opposed
TO free coinage. He has not yet appointed
Chairman of the Committee on Coinage,
and until he does no meetings of the CON-
mittee can be called. Many are beginning
to believe the vacancy caused by the resigna-
ton OF Conger, to go as Minister to Brazil,
will not be filled, so the committee can d,
nothing during the session. 1t is probable
the Speaker will name tho Chairman, but
not until he knows the exact views of the
new man on the silver question, and what
shape legislation is likely to take.

free coinage of silver means the immediate
demonstration of gold and the United
States would then have a standard con-

prospect of an international agreement on
silver, because of the universal feeling that
neither gold nor silver is abundant enough

Following is Secretary Blaine's reply to
Governor Ross. 1t is dated December Sd :

he states that he has transmitted copies of
the papers in the case TO Lord Salisbury and
