WASHINGTON LETTER.

written and compiled for the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, July 4.-The President
goes on in the even tenor of his way, just
as if the passage of the Stewart free
coinage bill by the Senate had not thrown
Congress into what might almost be call
ed a panic. If he is worried even a little
hit over the situation he does not show
IT. The situation in the House is at pres
emit chaotic, owing to the absence OIL 90
many members and the uncertainty oil
getting them here The telegraph wires
have been kept hot since Saturday by ooth
friends and opponents of free coinage
and good many members have probably
had their Fourth of July plans sadly DIS
arranged by an imperative summons 10
come to Washington at once.
The free coinage bill will be taken from
the Speakers table to morrow and be re-
ferred to the committee on coinage, which
will hold a meeting on Wednesday, and
will, it is expected, Immediately report
the hill fayora5ly. Then the music VIII
begin. and if the republican members are
all in their seats 1t is believed that they
can easily become masters OF the SITUATION
and dictate the action of the House.
Roth silver and anti-silver men are
threatening to block all the appropriation
bills if it becomes necessary to win' Mr..
Cleveland has been appealed to by the
anti-silyer democrats to bring his influence
% THAR aid. but 1t is doubtful whether he
will dare to do it.
The situation is such that the President
may have to abandon the idea OF ac'
companYiug Mrs. Harrison to the ADJ
rondack, the last of this week, as he had
intended doing. Only one OF the regular
appropriation bills has been sent to the
White House yet, and if the silver hsn.
begins before the others are disposed oil
no one can say when the rest of them Will
GET there. Congress is not in session TO-
day and the breathing spell is very
welcome one to the contestants II gives
them a chance to maueuvre for positiou'
The President sent another message 10
Congress on the Canadian waterwA!
question, in which he tells of the 1a'iuIe
of the Canadian Government TO beiog 'ne
ouestion and insists that prompt retalia-
ticp is necessary. Senator Davis JOINT
resolution authorizing the President to
retaliate has been favorably reported TO
the Senate and will probably be taken up
aud passed this week.
Senator Dubois, of Idaho, was an anti
Harrison man previous to the nomination.
therefore his view OF the situation Is not
a preiudlced one. BE says: "The thru
party cannot carry Idaho, and think
their inability extends to Colorado Ne
vada. the new States and the Pacihc
coast. 1t is true that there was strong
tendency towards third party before the
Chicago convention nominated Cleveland
Int il vanished when that ballot was
taken. Oar people know that II the
third party carries any of the republican
States it would throw the election OF
President INTO the House, which is two
thirds democratic, and Cleveland would
be elected. People who live in that sec
ton will not take any chances on the
election of Cleveland. No one ever IN
inred the west more than be did"
