treasury notes, but they have been quieted
with an assurance that IL necessary reme-
dial legislation can be enacted, and that
there is no doubt the President would not
base his veto on such an objection. On the
other hand, Mr.. Tracey was probably
strengthened in his opposition to the bill by
a statement made to him this morning that
the President will not veto the bill If 1t
reaches him. He does not name his au-
thority, but evidently gives credence to the
story and Is using II as a rallYing cry. The
republicans still preserve their attitude OF
apparent indifference to the outcome OF the
present struggle, but 1t was whispered
around on the democratic side Of the House
that more pressure is being brought to
bear on them to induce them 20 help the
anti-silver democrats in their opposition to
the bill. However that may be, some OF
the republicans say that when 1t comes TO a
vote they will insist on being recorded
in opposition to the bill and will not help
out either faction of the democrats in the
hght The silver men are pleased with this
kind of talk and say that il only small
number of republicans take this attitude
the result will be a voting quorum and the
passage of the silver bill.
RESULT OF THE CONFERENCE.
WASHINGTON, July 6, IL P. Mo fur
Their opposition to reference Of the Senate
free coinage bill to the committee on coin
age, weights and measures will be inter
posed by the auti-free silver democrats in
the House. This was the decision reached
at largely attended conference OF the
anti-tree silver men tonight at the Ar
lington hotel. Members to the num-
Der of between fifty aud sixty as
sembled there at the invitation
of Representative Tracey. Representative
Herbert of Alabama was chosen to preside.
Representative Little OF New York acted
~ Day Nkak iva MnL( oTe Of
Maryland as assistant secretary. Nearly
all present had something to say during the
course of the conference, which lasted until
after IL o'clock. II was agreed that one of
the main reasons for delaying reference OF
the bill, viz, to get absentees here, had been
accomplished, and that nothing would be
lost In yielding the position assumed
during the past two days. The
fact that further persistency in
opposition to the reference of the bill to the
coinage committee would delay public bust
ness was also a factor In determining the
action of the conference. At the conclusion
of the conference Representative Tracey
made a statement to the effect that the gen.
tlemen present at the conference had COM
pared notes and had reached the conclusion
that on d full vote in the House they could
defeat the bill by safe majority, although
Mr. Tracey did not state the ma ority which
he believed he could secure. With view
of being prepared to conduct thorough
campaign against the bill when 1t reaches
the House, the conference appointed two
committees One of them is for general
management OF the opposition to the bill.
It consists of Messrs. Herbert, Tracey,
Williams of Massachusetts, Campbell,
Cultivate, Little aud McKaig of Mary
land. The second committee will have the
management Of the parliamentary pro-
ceedings on the floor, and consists of Messrs.
Tracey, Fitch, Myer of Louisiana, Harter
and Geissenbeimer. This committee was
given no Instructions as to its duties
