WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Most of the
Senators and Representatives in Congress
are preparing to leave for home just as
soon as Congress adjourns. Senator and
Mrs. Stanford will not leave until about
the 25th of March. Senator Hearst is, of
course, too sick to travel, and the proba-
bilities are that he will not reach Califor-
mia again rs a live man. Senator Stewart
Will probably remain in Washington u
month or more after Congress adjourns,
and then leave for Nevada and California
Senator Dolph will leave for Oregon
about the middle OF March, if he can ar
range his private affairs here by that time.
Senator Mitchell will probably leave
about the middle of March.
Representative Morrow and Mrs. Nor
row Will leave for San Francisco just as
soon as Congress adjourns. Congress-
man Clunie and wife will spend the sum-
mer in Europe. Representative McKenna
and wife will also go to Europe about the
last of May for several months, unless
President Harrison should go to the Pa
citic Coast very soon after Congress adj
journs, in which case Mckenna will go to
California also, but not with the Presi-
dental party. Congressman Geary. wife
and son will leave for Santa Rosa lust as
soon as Congress adjourns. Representa-
tive Biggs will go TO his home at Gridley,
CAL, as soon as possible after adjourn
ment. General Nandever viii spend q
week here after the close of the session,
and will then leave for home, accompa-
MED by his family.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l.-The adverse
report of the majority of the House Coin
age Committee on the Senate free coin
age bill says in part: Under the present
Act S45000,000 annually are being added
to the value of currency of the country,
in the form Of treasury notes for bullion
purchased. This largely exceeds the con-
traction in the way ofthe retirement of
bank notes, and in ten years would, ut
the same rate, gradually add to the value
of currency above the amount of bank
notes, should they all be returned, $780,,
100000.
The Secretary of the Treasury states
that the amount of surplus of silver in
the world above the amount used in arts
and coinage in all other countries than
the United States was for 1888, 39,5G0, 600
ounces. If this estimate is correct, under
the present law there is no provision for
using the worlds surplus, which is all
that unlimited coinage could accomplish.
1t is said, however, that the demand of
the present law does not call for all the
silver which is sufficient to keep down
the silver surplus, and that there are now
''Dearing" the market fifteen million
ounces, which is sufficient to keep down
the price of silver to its present figure.
Whether these fifteen million ounces are
likely to remain threat to the market, or
whether they are used by designing per-
sons as a temporary means to depress the
price, is matter upon which intelligent
persons who have appeared before the
committee differ. This can be deter
mined by a continuance of the present
policy of buying no more than 100000
ounces monthly, provided for by the eX
listing law.
If the presence of fifteen million ounces
is continued only for the purpose of
etfecting some change in legislation, it
will soon be permitted to go its way. If,
on the other hand, it is in actual excess
over the Gemand, it viii be easy at any
future time for Congress to provide for
its absorption into the volume of cur
rency.
The treasury notes issued under the
present law are a legal tender. This is
the highest function that could be given
silver under free coinage. So that, under
the existing law. we have provision for
the use Of all silver that would be brought
to the mints under free coinage, assum-
ing the worlds surplus to be as already
stated. The money issued has all the
legal qualities and purchasing power of
coined money, and in addition is confined
practically to the American product, so
the United States is out of all the danger,
so strenuously insisted upon by many
persons, of the flooding of the market
with the silver OF the world.
The present law, at the time of its pas
sage, was declared by many ardent sup
porters OF free coinage to be satisfactory.
The conditions are substantially the same
as then. If the present law, when passed,
promised, TO all intents and purposes, the
use Of the American product, and author
lied the issue of money as good for all
purposes as coined silver, it is not now
evident to the committee wherein it has
failed in that promise, nor wherein it is
likely in future to fail to accomplish that
desirable end.

WINDOWS SUCCESSOR.

Ex-Governor Foster of Ohio Appointed
Secretary of the Treasury.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-The President
to-day nominated Charles Foster of Ohio
Secretary of the Treasury.
The nomination of Ex-Governor Foster
of Ohio to be Secretary Of the Treasury is
favorably received about the Capitol.
He is, it is said, thoroughly i'll accord
with the Presidents financial policy, and
a conservative man, whose opinions are
all fav vorable to a sound stable currency.
Republicans generally expressed them
selves well satisfied with the President s
selection, and those Democrats who were
seen said they had nothing to say against
it, conceding that the President had the
right to select advisers in accord with his
policy.
Representative Mckinley said 'tFoster
will demonstrate the wisdom of the Pres
ident's selection. lie is sound on finance
and an able man."
OFFICIAL NOTIFICATION.
New YORK, Feb. 2I.- Ex-Governor
Foster was officially notified of his ap-
pointment as Secretary of the Treasury
by dispatch this afternoon from Presi-
dent Harrison, who asked for his views
on the financial question. He said to a
reporter: II am in accord with the Presi-
dent and his party, and my policy will be
the same as Windom'S, as far as [ can see
now. l am in accord further with the
President and party in their effort to in
crease the trade of the country through
reciprocity treaties. | am a firm protec-
ZIONIST, and strong advocate of the
restoration of our foreign shipping inter-
estS.''
ICharles Foster was born near Tiffin, Ohio,
April IL, 1928. He was taken by his father
in his fifth year TO what is now Fostoria, Ohio,
then n wilderness. After receiving his edu-
cation at Norwalk Academy he became q sue
cessful merchant. He was also interested in
politics, but held no Office till 1870, when he
was chosen TO Congress as Il Republican, and
three times reelected, though his district gave
Democratic majority each time on the gen.
eral ticket. While he was member of the
Committee on Ways and Means he was active
in bringing to light the Sanborn contract
frauds, and in the movement thai resulted in
the repeal of the moiety laws. Early in 1874
he visited New Orleans Chairman of an in
yestigating committee, and in his official re-
port he severely criticised the methocs OF
both parties in that State. He was elected
Governor of Ohio in 1879 and reelected in
1881, holding Office from January, 1850, till
January, 1SS4.-EDS.

SUNDRY CIVIL BILL.
Many Changes Made in the Appropria-


tonS.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l.-The sundry
civil appropriation bill was reported in
the Senate to-day. Among the changes
are the following: Increasing by S450, coo
the limit of cost for the San Francisco
Postoffice site, and extending to S350,000
the limit of cost for the Los Angeles pub
lie building. The amount for buildings
for military posts is $500. increased
from S690,o0o. The appropriation for the
survey of public lands is reduced $50, ,o0O,
and n provision is made for a survey on
No Mans Land. The appropriation for
topographic surveys is reduced from
SS25, 900 to 5000, GOO.
The House provisional amendment to
prevent the institution OF revenue prose-
cutions for the sake Of fees has been
stricken out, and in its place inserted n
requirement that no such prosecutions
shall be brought except upon sworn APP
plieation of the Revenue Collector or
deputy, approved by a United States Cir
cult Judge.
