Sentiment OF the silver COMMITTEES.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-The sentiment of
the silver committee appears to be adverse
TO any hearing that will prevent consldera-
ton of the subject by the House until the

and not of unusual length. Roll call

mining suit was resumed The case con-
tlnues to attract good deal of interest,
especially among mining men, great

The first witness called was Mr.. Devine,
one of the original locators of the mine. He
testified as to marking the boundaries of

OF the property exhibited in court as being
correct. He also stated that he gave a
man by the name of King fourth interest
in the property for running a tunnel forty
feet.
MIR. Tyler, also one of The original own
ers, next took the stand. He stated that
the character of the ore was similar to that
OF the Bunker Hill, and he thought the
Tyler was continue ton of that vein.
Mr.. Gallagher, a mining expert of Dillon,
Montana, next took the stand AT this
point, objection was made to the introduce

weights and measures effected an organiza-
tion this morning, Pierce, of Tennessee,
offered o resolution to report a free silver
bill without delay. The discussion that
arose on the resolution showed the COM
mittee is free coinage committee though
both the free silver and anti-free silver
men opposed the adoption of the resolution
on the ground it was too precipitate. The
resolution is as follows:
Resolved, That it is the sense of this
committee that bill for the free and un-
limited coinage of silver should be reported
TO the House without delay.
The resolution was unexpected by other
members of the committee and was rather
irregular but it has had the effect desired
pressing the question TO the front.
Kilgore, of Texas, said he had no doubt
the committee would report free coinage
bill but he saw no necessity for adopting
such a resolution at the first committee
meeting.
Bartine Qeader of the Republican free
silver. men in the last Congress), said he
was as heartily in favor of free coinage as
any man, but it was the first meeting of
the committee and two members opposed
TO Tree coinage were absent. III might look
like snap judgment to pass the resolution.
Williams, of Massachusetts, protested
against the resolution in quite a long
speech. He warned the majority if they
sincerely believed they had just cause,
hasty and oppressive methods in for ward
! ing that cause won be the best argument
that cauld be used against them and
against their cause.
Stone, of Pennsylvania, opposed the
resolution as being verdict taken before
any evidence was put in.
Epps said he was elected on free silver
platform but did not wish to have the cues
ton forced until he had had little more
| light
Robertson, Of Louisiana, came out
strongly for free coinage and against up-
necessary delay, but thought the resolu-
ton should not be adopted just yet
Chairman Bland THOUGHT the resolution
might go over, but suggested a change in
| its form might make it unobiectiol able.
He suggested that the resolution be modi-
fled so as to simply announce it to be the
purpose OF the committee to take up the
coinage question at once. No opposition
was manifested to this modification
Pierce finally withdrew his resolution
for the present, and by common consent
the subject went over until the next meet

the effect to create grave feeling at the
capitol Senators and Representatives who
have all along derlded the idea of serious
results following the Gillian corresfond-
ence, and had the greatest confidence Chill
would soon tender an ample apology and
make reparation for the misdeeds of
her citizens, are now willing to admit
privately that the situation is full of
grave difficulties. One ominous sign is the
great inactivity of Congress in the matter
Heretofore 1t has been customary when
ever matter of smallest of the public in
terest in subject of diplomatic CORE
spondence for one of the two houses to
call upon the President for information.
THE GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION
appears to have had repressible effect
upon Congress. The situation in Congress
is one OF anxious waiting in the hope that
the President will soon relieve the general
desire for information. Very naturally
Senators and mem bers who are members
OF the committee having the foreign rela-
lions OF the government in their charge are
unwilling to express themselves at this
juncture upon the merits of the contro-
versy with which they may soon
have to deal officially. But from their
private expression it is clear no party lines
are to be drawn and the President will
have the united support of Congress in the
adoption OF any measure he feels necessary

member of the Senate committee on for

CHILEAN Re ugees on the yorktown.

to-day received a cable message from Com
mander Evans, of the gunboat Yorktown,
at Valparaiso, saying the last of the CHILEAN
political refugees, who have been under
protection at the different legations at
Santiago, were safely transferred to the
Yorktown yesterday. There were seven
of these refugees, five at the United States
acd two at the Spanish legation. They

THE TRIAL REPORT OF CAPTAIN scHLEY,
commanding the cruiser Baltimore, in re-
gard 10 the assault on the Baltimore
sailors, was received at the navy depart
ment today. In it Captain Schley makes
positive statement that the only
interview he ever had with Judge
of Crimes Foster, of Chill.
on the subject of the attack on the Balti-
more's sailors, occurred shortly after that
event and before its full gravity was
known or understood at Valparaiso. AT
that interview Captain Scheley says Judge
Foster expressly stated to him
TIE CAUSE OF THE ATTACK
was the hatred the lower classes had for
Americans because of the belief the Amer.
leans had been on the side of Balmaceda.
This expression by Judge Foster is re-
garded by naval officers as highly signifi-
cant in view of the subsequent statements
in regard to the Baltimore incident. The
interview took place fore the recent
Presidents note calling on the Gillian gov
eminent for PREPARATION.
