PITFALL FOR THE PARTY.
BLAND'S EILL TO BE HELPED ON
BY THE REPUBLICANS.

They Want It Passed so as to Have

Men.
WASHINGTON March 4.-The republicans
are going to pass the Bland free coinage

OF them will vote for 1t when the roll Is
called on the hrst passage of the bill, but a
large majority OF them will vote for it on
the much more decisive vote on Monday.

ing for its consideration. The battle is to
be founght on tho skirmish line,' and there
the republicans, as party, will be
found fighting side by side with
Bartine. There will be some exceptions
Henry Cabot Lodge will, it is
said, be one of them, but, as a rule, the re-
publicans will be found in the free coinage
lines.
WANT TO TRAP THE DEMOCRATS.
: Publicly they profess only desire TO get
the matter disposed Of one way or the other,
but privately they avow purpose TO COM
NIT the Democratic party through its repre-
sentatives in the House to policy which
they believe will cost it the states Of New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut In the
presidential election and the larger part of
the seats from southern districts, which It
now holds in the House. 1--WE are going to

avowal of republican leader to Rep
resentative Andrews, when on behalf of the
anti-free coinage democrats he directly
asked the cooperation Of the republicans in

defeated the consideration OF the bill.

representatives, especially Representa-
tive Reed, because it seemed to make
it necessary for Speaker Crisp to count
a quorum, yet the republican leaders
rejected it. frankly stating that it was bet
ter politics to put the democratic House on
record in favor of free coinage. OF course
the anti-free coinage democrats have not
abandoned hope and will fight considera-

now all against them, and there is now
every reason to believe the Bland bill will
go Co the Senate, and Senator Aldrich still

who was appointed by Judge Speer, bases
his claim to possession of the road on the
ground that he was appointed several
hours prior to the appointment Of Receiver
Garrett. The argument Of Receiver Gar
rett's attorneys to-day was that the appli,
Ssa0n Satnra for Is a curssa RECEIVER Nv, was flied
Speer was applied to. and that the state
court was already considering the applica-
tion and had been for some time adtninis-
tering the affairs of the railroad when Re-
ceiver Plant was appointed. This fact it
was argued, constituted the priority Of the
receivership, the appointment of the re-
ceiver being merely incidental to the
proceedings.
The Jurisdiction of Judge Speer's court
was also attacked The occasion Of to DAVIS
hearing was a rule nisi issued by Judge
Clarke requiring Receiver Garrett to show
why he should not yield possession to Re-
oeiver Plant As the case proceeds
it grows more novel and interesting.
It is probable that Judge Clarke
will sustain Receiver Garrett, in which
event it devolves on Judge Speer to enforce
bis order, arresting Receiver Garrett for
contempt. The attorneys for Receiver
Garrett say If he Is sustained by Judge
Clarke he will be kept In possession of the
road, which means that there will be a
variety of Developments.
