! A Vt E. Or 70 5Os The Silver Hill Will be Again Dis- cussed by the House-The Vote in Detail-How the Measure Reads- Senator Hill Does Not Seem Inter. ested and Leaves While the Speeches Are in Progress.
 WASHINGTON. May 26.-After a small amount of morning business had been acted upon, MT. Morgan's silver resolution, which had led to such an interesting de- bate yesterday, was again taken up and MT. Morgan resumed his argument. He denied that his object was to influence po- litical conventions. He wanted legisla- tion, and hopeless as that seemed now, if the senators who indicated their position yesterday by their votes against referring the resolution would adhere steadily and courageously to their convictions, his judgment was that, before the close of this congress, the vexed question would have passed entirely out of consideration and the people would have their way.
 MT. Sherman was on the floor replying to MT. Morgan's speech at o'clock when the morning hour expired and MT. Nor gan's resolution went over without action. MT. Stewart immediately rose and m owed Gin order to afford senators the opportunity to have test votel to take up the bill in troduced by him and reported adversely from the committee on finance "to pro- vide for the free coinage of gold and sil- ver"
 MT. Morgan demanded the yeas and nays. The vote was taken and MT. Stew arts motion was agreed to-yeas 2S, nays 20.
 The following is the vote in detail:
