Interviews with Two Prominent Nc

on the subject.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-Seuator Car
Isle, in an interview to-day, put aside
the talk of his going in the Cabinet as
thing not to be discussed. Speaking on
the prospect of an extra session, he said it
would all depend upon undeveloped CON
ditions. He had seen Cleveland. and was
satisfied it was not possible for him to tell
yet what would be done. 1.-The financial
affairs of the Government may be in such
shape as to make an extra session i'm
perative. 1t appears probable that we
shall not find money enough in the treas
ury for the needs of the Government. We
shall have to see what Congress does at
this session. If they do not repeal the
Sherman law relating to the purchase Of
silver and take such other action as the
situation demands. we may be swamped.
Upon these things depend the calling of
an extra session.
Another view of the case was taken by
Representative Wilson of West Virginia.
Chairman of the late National Democratic
Convention, who before leaving Wash
ington to-day for New York said: II
think it would be most impolitic to place
a new tariff dill before the country lust
previous to the elections in 1894. For
this reason / favor the extra session idea.
and think the sooner the proposed tariff
changes go into effect the better will be
the final result for our party"

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16. Harrison is
