Special Correspondence to the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 10, 1891
Speaker Reed and his able lieutenant,
are working like beavers to get the reg
ular appropriation bills through tn,
house and they expect to pass the las
ono this week, or at the outside by tn,
first of next week. The first bill to b,
taken up after the disposal of the ap
preparation bills in the house will be the
shipping bill, or as it is more popularity
known as the subsidy bill. This is the
bill proposing to encourage American
shipping by the granting of subsidies
based upon the tonnage of vessels. Rep
resentative Farquhar, of New York, who
is In charge of the bill, tells me that be
is confident of its being passed by de.
cisive majority, but the opponents of the
bill appear to be equally confident that
it will be defeated.
The House coinage committee has in
formally decided to report the free coin
age bill to the house next week. It is
expected that the majority of the COM
mittee will Recommend against any
further silver legislation instead of pre-
sentlng substitute for the free coinage
bill as 1t was supposed would be done.
This change Of program was propably
made for two reasons. First, the pres
ldent has given several prominent re-
publican senators to understand that he
would refuse to sign any silver bill. no
matter what its character might be. at
the present session, because he thinks
the present silver law has not been in
operation long enough to demonstrate
the necessity for further silver legislation.
Second, this method will prevent the
bill going on the house calendar, and
will make it impossible, without the
adoption of special rule, to call up the
bill unless a majority of the coinage
committee give their consent.
The free coinage men who hooted at
the very idea of any modification of the
bill few days ago are now trying to
make a combination in support of an
amendment limiting free coinage to sill
yer OF American production. Ten DAYS
ago they might have succeeded, but
now tits almost impossible 1t is about
as certain as anything in the future can
be that there will be no silver legislation
at this session.
Secretary Blaine has concluded an
other reciprocity treaty, which will open
the markets of Venezuela to our products
and manufactures, and there are several
other treaties we'll advanced which will
probably be sent to the senate before
the end of the session.
b. Mr.. Blaine denies most emphatically
that he has written any letter to any
person in Canada or elsewhere on the
subject of Canadian reciprocity, except
his note to Representative Baker, Of
New York, stating that this government
would not consider any limited PROPOSE
ton from the Canadian authorities.
This is in answer to statements that
have appeared in Canadian papers.
Representative Dingley, who is chair
man of the committee engaged in inves-
tigating the alleged silver pool, says
that the statements made by Owenby
in Chicago interview to the effect that
