Ask the Radicals to Form

BRUSSELS, Dee. 5.-When the inter
national monetary conference resumes
Its sittingS tomorrow the first matter
requiring settlement will be whether
the report of the committee appointed
to consider the RothSchild plan shall
be further debated or the proposals of
the American delegates proceeded
with.
Mr.. Rothschild, Sir C. Fremantle and
Cir William Houldsworth, all Of whom
are British delegates, desire some ex-
preston of opinion regarding Mr..
Rothschild's plan from the full con-
terence.
Mr.. Bertram Currie, another British
delegate, aims to bring the conference
to a speedy close. and, in common with
some of the other delegates, who are
resigned to see the conference result in
failure, would accelera tie the consider
alton of the American resolutions, as
Fastening the winding up Of the meet
ing.
Sir G. Fremant tie. with view to the
resumption of the debate on the Roths-
child plan, has amended his declara-
ton declining to pledge the English
government to withdraw its haIf-sov-
ereign pieces in favor Of silver, by add
ng the words except concurrent!y
with the adoption of the Eothschild
project Or some ether proposal having
the same compensatory value
Sir c. Fremantle, who is deputy
master of the British mint, has never
oeen known to take independent ac-
ton or personal initiative, and it is
therefore taken for granted that he is
the mouthpiece Of the British govern
nent in announcing assent to the abo-
litlon of the half-sovereign
If, despite the adverse report of the
committee, the full conference adopts
the Rothschild plan, n number of the
delegates will want the conference to

1t is doubtless difficult, but there is

OPENING THE SENATE.
Vice-President Morton Begins His Last
Session In the Chair.

Session In the Chair.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-When Vice
President Morton rapIe the Senate to
order with his gavel he found himself
surrounded and saluted by many who
officially were like the Roman gladia-
tors, about to die" He himself is
umbered among those who will be
missed. Mr.. Morton has made no en-
emies and many friends in the presiding
officer s chair Coming 10 the Senate en-
tirely unfamiliar with parliamentary
methods he has taken pains to become a
fairly expert presiding officer, his I'M
ruffied serenity of temper and unfailing
courtesy of manner aiding much to
populariZe his rule. Immediately in
front of him, in the second row next to
the gangway, sat the veteran Dawes,
of Massachusetts, still in sound health,
who, after thirtyfour years of con.
tinuous Congressional service, has
chosen to retire of his own free will.
In a knot in the far corner were
grouped the Senators from the newly
admitted States, Montana, Wyoming,
Washington and North Dakota, one
each of whom, together with Perkins,
the appointed Senator who fills
Plumb's place from Kansas and Pad
dock, the energetic ''pure food"
Senator from Nebraska, finds his fate
milling in the balance. Near them
was FELTON, of California, who also will
make way for a Democrat next March,
and Stewart of Nevada, whose future
political utilization in the changed con
dition of affairs in his pocket bor-
ough' State is a matter of doubt which
he alone can determine.
