To Fix q Rate of Interest,

LINCOLN. Neb., Jan. 2l.-A resolution
was adopted by the house to-day that a
committee of three be appointed to CORES
pond with the legislatures of Kansas,
North and South Dakota, Minnesota, and
Colorado, for the purpose of securing an
agreement by those states on common
rate of interest as low as may be practi-
cable. The reasons cited for this action
are that it might be injudicious for a
single state to attempt to lower the inter
est WitOut concurrence of others, as the
money power would concentrate itself
upon that state and by withdrawing the
loans make the law obnoxious and secure
its rtpeal

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-There was no
demand this morning for the reading of
the journal in full, but when the reading
of that document, in its condensed form,
had been concluded, Mills, of Texas, OBJ
jected to its approval, and stated that he
desired to debate the question. At the
same moment, Mckinley was on his feet,
with demand for the previous question
on the approval of the journal. and he was
recognized by the speaker. The previous
question was ordered, and Mills, of Texas,
claimed the floor, and his claim was recog-
nized by the speaker. Thereupon Mills
yielded the floor to Bland, who said he
understood the resolution was to be re-
ported from the committee on rules to
limit the debate upon the appropriation
bills. He wished to offer to thai resolu-
ton an amendment That amendment
was that certain day should be fixed for
the consideration of the senate silver bill.
The speaker said the pending question
was upon the approval OF the journal.
Bland! suppose the speaker intends to
throttle this bill either in the committee or
in the house. [Cheers on the democratic
side. BLAND then read his ropOsed substi
tute making the free coinage silver bill the
continual order from and after January
27. He should, he said. insist upon that
motion until the 4th of March.

Henderson, of illinois,: How much
longer is the house to be subjected to this

he would continue TO administer them as
long as he retained the exalted position to
which he had been elected by votes of
the house. Mills continued his speech.

increasing in Great Britain

LONDON, Jan. 19.-The severity of the
weather recently experienced in Great Bri-
tain is increasing. There is much suffering
among the poorer classes, and from vari-
Gus sections of country come accounts of
many cattle and in several instances of
human beings frozen to death. Several
trades are at stand still owing to the cold
weather. Heavy ice has blocked the
docks at Newport in Monmouthshire and
it is impossible for vessels to either enter or
leave docks. A number of vessels that are
loaded and ready to proceed to sea are
consequently compelled to await the
breaking up of the ice before they can sail.
A lady was found to-day frozen to death
in railroad carriage at one of the stations
in this city.
THE BALTIC SEA FROZEN.
HAMBURG. Jan. IA dispatch from
Kiel says: The Baltic sea, so far as it can
be seen from the Beellz lighthouse, is COW
cred with ice. The channel separating the
Island OF Fehmarn from the Holstein shore
is frozen over. The Lake of Constance is
so covered with ice that navigation upon it
has been suspended.
SUFFERING FROM COLD IN GENEVA.
GENEVA, Jan. 19.-The cold weather ex-
perenced throughout Europe also causes
suffering in this city. The cold has been
so great that thick ice extends for 200
yards beyond the quays into the lake.
SNOW BLOCKADE IN AUSTRIA.
VIENNA, Jan. 19.-Nearly all roads and
railroads throughout Austria are more or
less blocked with snow, causing consider
able delay in passenger and freight traffic
everywhere. A number of country towns
are completely isolated and are likely to
remain so for some time to come. These
towns are suffering from their inability to
renew their stocks of coal and provisions,
which are, in many cases, exhausted. At
GratZ there was an extraordinary example
OF the extremely cold weather prevailing.
While the frozen boiler tubes of loco
motive were being thawed by burning
torches beneath them, the wheels of the
engine froze fast to the rails and hours
passed before the locomotive was moved
from the spot.
FREEZING TO DEATH IN FRANCE.
PARIS, Jan. 19.-Dispatches from all
parts of France telling of great inconveni-
ence and suffering caused by the intense
cold wea her are continually | g ng received
here. The harbors of Toulon and Las
rine are frozen for the first time on record.
The olive crop in the department Of the
Gard is fast bring ruined. Whole COM
muneS in the neighbOrhOOd OF Perpiguaue

The Deadlock in the Senate,

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 21.-It is
doubtful if the situation in the senate has
ever been more hopelessIy tangled than it
appeared to be at 9 o'clock tonight.
There were but few external evidences
of the real state of the case to the unprac-
ticed eye, for matters seemed to be
proceeding in the usual routine fashion.
A senator was reading in monotonous
tone of voice from long columns of print
leagues who retained their seats in the
senate chamber appeared paying him the
slightest attention and there were no signs
of the bitter struggle that is going on.
The democratic senators publicly deny
that they are "filibusterinR" in practicing
the tactics inaugurated for the first
time time tdsy cdsy tbe in the senate State just st
affairs will continue can hardly be con-
jectured. The ostensible hope of the re-
publican managers lies in their expecta-
tion that if they can succeed in preventing
an adjournment, the democratic orators,
worn out with so much continuous talk,
will finally succumb. But of this there is
little hope, for the democrats feel confident
of their powers and use Of relays Of SEN
ators in rest and on duty in talking away
and emerging in good condition at
the end OF this congress. The feeling is
deepening on the republican side of the
chamber that to break the deadlock other
wise than by ignominious defeat on the
closure resolution and election bill
the vice president must come to the rescue
of the majority by ruling which will de.
stroy in measure some of the time hon
ored traditions Of the senate as to the
rights of individual senators, as opposed to
the rights of the majority.
