FRBE COINAGE DEAD.
It is Buried Out Of Sight for

BLAND SAYsI1'S sMoTHRRED.
A Questionable Attempt to Make Il

Defeated in the Householder

Hptctdl DkDdteA 70 ubS 4hAtHtge"eI'
WAsnISG1oN, D. O., Feb. Cit is very
generally conceded tonight that nc
more violent efforts will be made to pas
an unlimited coinage bill in this Con
press. Senator Stewards failure to gel
free coinage on the Pension Appropria
bill and the dismal failure Of Mr.. Bland
to induce the House to-day to inject II
into the sundry Civil Appropriation bill
have given free coinage great back set,
from which it cannot recover before the
fourth of March. But Ave Republicans,
Line. of Minnesota; Bartine, Of Nevada; ;
Herman, Of Oregon; Kelly, Of Kansas,
and Carter, Of Montana, voted with Mr..
Bland in his appeal from the decision Of
the Chair when the latter declared the
motion to add free coinage as being out
Of order, while Wiley and Spinola, OF
New York; Matchler and Vaux, Of
Pennsylvania, Democrats, voted to sls.
tam the ruling OF the Speaker. The cause
Of unlimited coinage has suffered by
the tactics employed in the Senate to
advance 1t. There are large number
Of Republicans in the House who are
naturally inclined to support the propo-
sition, but who will not do 1t because
certain free coinage advocates in the
Senate traded of the election bill and
Cloture resolution for silver votes. A
number Of members in the Honse who
voted to sustain the ruling OF the Speak
or, would have voted for almost any
one to take up unlimited coinage, had 1t
moi been the intention TO load It upon
an important appropriation bill which
they very much desire shalt become q
law. They feared o Presidential veto
might defeat the entire bill and they
pronounced the attempt 10 make an ap'
preparation bill carry questionable
proposition as unfair as it was hazardous.

CHARLESTON, W. Va, Feb. 6-senate
bill No. 9S, introduced by Senator Wor.
ley to-day, is quite important. It pro-
vides for the appointment by the Gov.
ernor Of State Librarian Independent
OF the Office OF the Adjutant General as
at present. 1t will also dispose OF the
necessity OF the Assistant Adjutant Gen.
eral. The Librarian will BIZ entitled to
the assistance Of one clerk, and his duties
will be to classify and arrange the books
in such manner that they Can be found
without delay by persons who desire 10
refer to them. He will keep list and
have general charge Of the library. Un-
der the present arrangement 1t is said
these duties are not properly attended
to, owing to the fact that the duties Of
the Adjutant General at present keep
him from giving proper attention to the
duties as librarian. Books are not prop
erly arranged it is said, and persons who
desire TO refer TO them experience much
difficulty in finding the authority de.
sired. Senator Worlsy believes his bill
oilers the best remedy for the difficulty
and thinks 1t will pass with little oppo-
Rition.
