SURPRISE OF THE SESSION..
What the Vote on the Silver Bill Re-
vea1ed.

WASHINGTON, March 25. The iron
hand of cloture is the only weapon that
can throttle the opposition to the free
silver bill and force a final vote on that
measure in the House.
The vote on the motion to table the sill
yer bill last night is the surprise of the
session.
The advocates of the measure have
constantly claimed from 30 to 40 majori-
ty on the passage of the bill, and the op-
ponents OF the bill have generally con-
ceded a majority of from 20 to 30. The
conclusion is irresistible, therefore, that
a secret change of sentiment or of policy
has taken place within the last few days
in certain quarters, resulting, doubtless,
from letters and petitions, and an analy-
sis of the vote shows that this must have
been the case, as the 36 or 30 absentees
are understood to be about equally di-
vided on the question at issue.
The filibustering tactics of the opposi
ton last night showed conclusively that
the anti-frce coinage men can prolong in
terminably their dilatory motions
against the bill, and that final vote can
only be secured by the committee on
rules bringing in an order naming in adj
vance the day and hour on which the
previous question shall be considered as
ordered.

MINERS BREAK BOUNDS.
Almost Reign of Terror in the Durham
District.

LONDON, March 25.-The Durham
miners are quite out Of their leaders
hands, and scenes of violence are of daily
occurrence at all the idle pits. The men
are waging deliberate war upon the
press, because the papers refuse to sup
port them in their extravagant demands.
The reporters do not dare to attend the
meetings of the strikers, of which there
are scores held daily. Serious disorders
in many districts come to light slowly,
not having been reported at the time of
their occurrence, for the reason given.
The Newcastle Chronicle has shown con-
siderable enterprise in making arrange
ments to keep its readers informed of
the actual state of affairs. Finding that
it's reporters could not, without risking
their lives, go openly to the meetings
and among the strikers, the managers of
the paper caused the reporters to be dis
guised as pit men, and in this way has
been able to publish accurate statements
of the progress of the movement from
day to day. Seven houses at the Little
ham colliery were wrecked by the disor-
derly strikers yesterday. Officer Shield 8
house was partially demolished, and his
wife was injured by stones that were
thrown. Several houses were also
wrecked at the Oldboyne colliery. At
Brandon, Officer MINI was almost killed
while endeavoring to preserve order.
The county police have been reinforced
and are now forming posts, connected by
telephone, making network through
out the disturbed district, so that large
body of officers can be summoned to any
desired spot on very short, notice. A
fourth ballot on the question of continu-
ing or abandoning the strike is in pro-
gress, and will occupy some days. 1t is
believed that the majority will favor CIV
ing up the fight, which now seems hope
less to every one but the extremists.

HOPE OF THE ANTS.
Republican Aid Wanted to Kill
Bland's Order for Cloture.
THE SILVER MEMS ONLY HOPE Is
In STOPPING FILIBUSTERING.

Next Monday tho Day Selected and an
Order Expected Then-Even if This
Passes, the Anti-Silyer Democrats Still
Hope to Beat the BilI-Republican
Leaders Want Party Lines Drawn
Other Washington News.
WASHINGTON, March Psf Mr.. Catch
ings of Mississippi returns to Washing
ton in time, special order will be
brought into the House Monday, for the
immediate consideration of the Bland
silver bill and the pending amendments.
The anti-silver Democrats have been in
formed that. this is the intention, and
will use every means in their power to
defeat the special order. Mr.. Bland this
afternoon disclosed his plan by the intro
duction of a aNresolution fixing Monday,
March %, as the date on which the bill
for the free coinage of silver and the
pending amendments shall be taken up
and put upon its passage. Accompany
ing the resolution is provision giving
the Speaker power to refuse to entertain
any dilatory motion. By this means, the
silver men expect to prevent flibustering
and bring the matter to a speedy termi-
nation.
Mr.. AAndrew Of Massachusetts, one of
the leaders in the fight against silver, and
who has kept close tally on the votes,
said this afternoon that he was of the
opinion that they could beat the special
order of the committee, provided the
Republicans would support the anti-siI-
yer Democrats and vote as they did on
Mr.. Burrows's motion. The
Fight Against the Resolution
he said, depends upon the Republicans,
and they, at present, are not disposed to
aid the anti-silver Democrats, their lead
ers stating that they believe each party
should squarely align on the issue. There
are several Democrats who voted with
the silver men yesterday, upon whom the
antis say they can rely for support
against any special order cutting off
amendments, and these few votes they
say would be sufficient to change the re-
suit, with Republican aid. If beaten on
the order, the anti-silver men will fight
the bill itself with substitute providing
for an international monetary conference
The resolution of Mr.. Bland makes the
special order apply to the bill and the
pending amendments. One of these
amendments proposes a monetary con-
ference as a substitute measure, and an
effort will be made to have this adopted
and the free coinage bill
Thereby Shelved for the Present
Mr.. Andrew also said the Republicans
had informed him that he could rely on
their soFd support exclusive of course
of the li silver Republicans) upon vote
on this proposition, and they would vote
together only upon direct free coinage
issue. He still has hopes, however, that
as the anti-silver Democrats have shown
that the Democratic party in the House
cannot pass a free coinage measure with
out some Republican votes, the Republi-
cans will consent to endeavor to kill the
measure in every way possible. Should
the monetary conference proposition fail,
the anti-silver Democrats still hope to
beat the bill on the direct vote.

LApHAM DETERMINED.

He Presents New Bill in Behalf of the
Menhaden Seiners.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-In the House
today, Representative Lapham of Rhode
Island, introduced a bill providing that
menhaden and mackerel may be taken
with purse seines by citizens of the Uni
ted States, in all the navigable waters
within the jurisdiction and control of
the United States, where the tide ebbs
and flows so far as the United States has
the right to regulate the rights of fisher
les therein, any state law or usage to the
contrary notwithstanding. This bill,
Mr.. Lapham hopes, will meet the consti-
tutional objection urged to the bill pre-
viously introduced by him on the same
subject.

Germans Condemn Free Silver.
BERLIN, March 25.-The discussion in

Germany would take part in monetary
convention provided Great Britain agreed

WILL RATIFY THE TREATY.
But Not Until the Modus Question Has
Been Settled.


WASHINGTON, March 25.-The Senate
in secret session this afternoon reached
a practical agreement to ratify the Beh-
ring sea arbitration treaty with a provis-
ion that the ratification shall not take
effect until agreement is reached on the
modus vivendi issue. No formal action
was taken on the treaty and it went over
until Monday in order that absent sena-
tors might be notified to be present on
that day.
The seriousness of the Behring sea sit
uation is shown by the fact that Secreta-
~ Blaine attended the Cabinet meeting
today, Notwithstanding the fact that he
has not yet fully recovered from his re-
cent severe attack of the grippe. All the
other members were prompt in attend
anee. Secretaries Foster and Tracy had
a conference prior to the meeting, pre-
sumably in regard to the orders to be
sent to the naval and revenue vessels to
be assigned to the duty Of patrolling the
sealing grounds. 1t is practically settled
that this service will be assigned to the
war ships Charleston, Baltimore, Bos-
ton, Yorktown, Adams, Ranger and Mo-
hican, and the revenue vessels Corwin,
Bear, Rush and Albatross.
The entire session of the Cabinet was
devoted to the consideration of the Beh-
ring sea question. 1t is understood that
this government will await reply from
Lord Salisbury to the Presidents note of
the 22d inst. before proceeding on the
assumption that Great Britain will not
cooperate in measures for the protec-
ton of the sealing industry.
