FREE SILVER BATTLE.
The House Defers Action ON the Free
Coinage Bill.


A dispatch from Washington says: The
tumult and confusion which attended the
filibustering to defeat the Force bill in the
last Congress found parallel in the House
during the last days discussion of the Bland
Free Silver Coinage bill. The ex-
citing proceedings will be his
torical. Three times the rulings of the
Speaker were called into question. Once
exercised his prerogatives. cast his vote
and saved the Silver bill from defeat.
After day of debate participated in by
Messrs. Cochran, Hatch, Castle, Cum
mings, Williams and English, Mr..
Bland promptly at five O'clock and
one after the other, into brief
allowance of time. moved for the previous
question on the engrossment and third read
ing of the bill and amendments. 1t was the
signal for the fight. The members on both
sides were then to engage. The galleries
were packed.
A motion to table the bill, made by Mr..
Burrows of Michigan, would have prevailed
had not the Speaker voted and made tie
Then motion to reconsider the vote by
which Mr.. Burrows motion was lost was
made and carried. The question recurring
on the motion to table, it was lost by close
vote. Mr.. Bland then tried to force vote
on the bill, but failed.
After that the flibustering began under
the lead of Mr.. Cochran and Mr.. Fitch, and
was conducted afterward by the men who
happened to be about.
Mr.. Bland had counted on carrying the
bill with rush. He had failed and his con-
fdence in his following was wavering.
Finally. after seven hours and half Of
filibustering, he had consultation with the
Speaker and Mr.. Mcmillan, of the Rules
Committee.
Then he went back to his seat, and ended
at 1885 in the morning what promised to
journ. 1t was carried unanimously.
The Silver bill now goes up on the calen-
dar, but it was considered probable that the
Committee on Rules would at an early day
report resolution for it's further considera-
ton.

Political Crisis in Venezuela.

CARACAS, March 26.-[New York Herald
Special. IA crisis has been reached in the
political struggle in this country, and
from all parts of the republic come
reports of uprisings against Palacio's
attempts to retain the presidency.
Palacio's claim that he is presidentwas pro-
nounced illegal by the supreme federal
court, whereupon he ordered their incar-
ceration in Jail. All the reports that reach
Caracas confirm the general belief that the
revolution will become so widespread that
there will be great loss OF life before Pala-
clio conquers his enemies or they succeed
in killing or imprisoning him, or driving
him into exile, as happened to other presi-
dents of this country. Caracas is in a
virtual state of siege, and at any moment
serious lighting may occur.
