Senators, Messrs. Jones. OF Nevada, Gibson ingalls,

tomorrow. When they are through-and the
Senate viii meet at 10 a. m. 10 give them fair
chance-debatc on any amendments which may
be offered will continue under the ten-minuts
rule, and final vote may be reached before Cd
journment tomorrow evening.
Notwithstanding the powerful showing made
in to-days discussion by the Senators who oppose
free coinage, there is no doubt that Mr. Stewards
amendment. which goes further even than SIM
pie instruction to the Government TO coin the
bullion which may be presented, and obliges the
Treasury TO accept and store all such bullion, and
to issue notes in nominal value, without seignor-
age or profit will be adopted by an overwhelming
vote. 1t is said that every Democratic Senator
will vote for II. in order to carry out the bargain
by which the Election bill was displaced. and
probably twenty of the ifty-one Republican
Senators will also support the coalition. The
majority for free coinage will therefore he greater,
probably, than it was last June.
speeches from members of the Finance Committee
in depreciation of the effort to put the United
States on a silver basis.
Mr. Sherman came first and had the floor fQk
several hours, directing his argument toward the
illusion prevalent on the Democratic side that
free. coinage will not necessarily mean the aban-
donment of the gold standard altogether. The
Ohio Senator was vigorous and outspoken and
held the large audience in the galleries from be-
ginning to end.
lie was followed by Mr.. Allison, who made .
striking half-hour speech against free coinage a.
the worst setback the cause Of silver could
possibly have
Mr. Adrich. who came last surprised and de-
lighted his hearers with witty and felicitous
attack the present financial coalition and made
his many points against both Mr.. Stewart and
Mr.. German in a most telling and effective manner
Mr. Evarts then spoke briefly, and Mr. McCon-
nell, the fcrvent apostle OF silver from Idaho,
made his maiden speech in the Senate in behalf
of cheap money" To-morrow's speeches, espe-
cially those of Messrs ingalls,. Jones and Hisco0k
are looked forward TO with great interest

Indians in IT, - 800 of whom are warriors. by
the southeast trail they have been commdnica'-
ing with the friendlies. and the horsemen nave
been riding continually between the two camps
Captain Maus. General Mess chief of stall, says
that these communications have been between
relatives The friendlies held council late iaso
night and decided that they wanted none OF the
hostiles in their camp. They have dug rlne pi's
and say that if even solitary warrior comes
among them and causes trouble they VIII arrese
him, and if he resists they will kill him. Stili'
this does not give a feeling OF security. me
ground upon which they camp is between the
agency and retreat. II fight takes place no orc
will know friendly from hostile, and the fight
NAV become simply a battle between oil the
Indians and the whites. If the hostiles could be
sure of thus dragging in the 1900 friendles they
would be sure to fight. The ten chiefs did
not come in yesterday, and they were ex-
pected this morning, but there are fears
that it will be day or two be-
fore they can be induced to come TO the agency.

scout Says the young men mad and the old
ones excited, though they arc all half AFRAID.
The sauaws are silent and the warriors sullen'

men who want TO fight. They have their war
paint on, and they are ready for fight if one
occurs The friendly camp is now an unsafe
place, because the hostiles arc riding in there
constantly, and il is difficult to get even courers
TO go through it late in the evening. Colonci
Corbin General Milcss adjutant this AFTERNOON
said that the possibilities of fight were De,
coming more remote every hour, and he expected
the difficulty to be settled within few days
Chief Red Eagle, who has just returned from
the hostile camp to the agency. says that IL
would be inadvisable for General Miles to say
anything about arms now, as 1t would surely
cause trouble.
Washington, Jan. 13.-Gencral Schoield this

dashed up and entered the house. Soon
many other friends came and endeavored 20
calm the grief Of the widow and orphans.
The utmost surprise was expressed by
everybody unacouainte1 with the Secre-
tar7's private life. as Mr.. Window was the
last man in public life in Washington who
was thought Likely to die suddenly.
He had every appearance OF good health;
he was temperate in his living and habits
and very domestic in his tastes. 1t Is well
known to his intimate friends, however. that
for several years Mr.. Window had suf-
fered from heart disease, and for many
months he had been under treatment by
Philadelphia physician.
It is also fact that for several months the
Secretary had been fearful that he would be
attacked by disease and therefore he was &C.
companied constantly by his Secretary, Mr..
HendIey, who never failed to walk with him
to and from his office, and at all times to be
by his side.
The Secretary's family consisted Of mar
ried son and two young daughters who have
but recently made their bow to society. The
son lives in Washington, and is in the Office
of the Supervising Architect of the Marine
Department. A few months ago his little
son died and the residence Of the grand
father was therefore closed for week. 1t
has since been reopened to the social world,
and on the day of her husbands death, Mrs.
Window held one of her most crowded and
brilliant Wednesday afternoons
