HOUSE.

WASHINGTON, July AFTER referring
the silver bill to the Coinage committee,
the House this morning again voted down
the agreed conference report on the -diplo-
matte and consular appropriation bill. the
vote of the opposition being based on the
appropriation of S65, goo for payment of the
United States expenses Of the prelimin-
aries the inter-continentsl railway.
Tire remainder of the day was consumed
in consideration of the resolution directing
the Committee on Judiciary, already au-
Lhorized to investigate Plnkerton's sys-
at Homestead. The committee on labor
wanted the resolution referred to them,
and it was so done, but the victory was
short lived, as the judiciary men regained
their ground and finally secured the reso-
luton.
During the discussion Watson of Georgia
criticised the judiciary committee for hav-
ing been derilect in their duty for not pro-
kceeding with the investigation long ago..
Oates denied that the committee had
failed in their duty.
The conference report on the Indian ap-
Precipitation bill was submitted and agreed
to. House adjourned.
the HOUSE WILL HAVE A RESPITE
from further struggle over the silver bill
for few days. AS a result OF an agree
nant reached last night Tracy this morn
ing permitted the bill. which has been on
the Speakers table all the week, to be re-
ferred to The coinage committee without
opposition. A call hns been issued by
Chairman Bland for meeting of the coin
age committee for tomorrow morning, to
consider the Senate free coinage bill All
the voting members Of the committee are
in Washington except McKeigbau Of Ne
brasEe, who is expected this evening or to-
morrow morning.
Bland does not believe it will be neces-
sary to have sittings of the committees dur
ing the sessions of the House, but in
order to be prepared for such contin-
gency be will introduce resolution now
before the Rules committee giving the
committee such authority.
The anti silver Democrats profess an
amazing degree of confidence in their
ability TO beat the bill; but under the sur
face it is nearly apparent that deep
seated fear of some adverse action of the
Committee on Rules prevails, and they
dread cloture above all things. They hope
to prevent the bill from coming TO q vote.
but insist il it does they can defeat it, or
course this can only be done by the aid of
Republican votes. When it comes to that
pass. however, they will vote strongly
against this measure if 1t shall be made
clear to them that they can thereby defeat
it and reap the credit for the defeat.

FRICK INTERVIEWED.
He Makes Lengthy Statement of the Com
pany's Side OF the Trouble.

PITTsBURG. July I'll. G. Frick, chair
man Of the Carnegie company, was inter
viewed this evening on the basis of the
difference between the company and the
men. He said skilled workmen in the
Amalgamated association worked under
what is known as the sliding scale. AS the
price of steel advanced 80 did the earnings
of the men and vice versa While there
was no limits to the advance there is a
point at which the decline stops. We be-
lieve if the earnings can advance without
limit the workmen should be willing to
follow the selling price down to reason
able minimum and instead of SIS as q
minimum we fixed $23. The reason for
this was that we spent large sums OF
money in the Introducing of new
machinery, by means OF which the work
men could increase the daily output,
thereby increasing the amount Of earnings.
Another point was the date of the expira-
ton OF the sliding scale June 3d. We
ssked that the date be changed TO Dec.
81 to permit US TO take estimates, beginning
Jan ], so we would be enabled to mase
contracts for year accordingly. The
| Amalgamated association declined The
third matter was the proposed reduction in
tonnage We are prepared. to show in
nearly every department under the pro-
posed reduction skilled workmen would
make more than they did when the scale OF
1889 went into effect. AS rule the men
who were making the largest wages are
the ones who most bitterly denounce the
proposed reyision, for out Of 3, 800 men EN-
| ployed only 1925 were directly affected by
the reduction. Finding it impossible TO ar.
rive OF an agreement with the Amalga,
mated officials we decided TO close the
works y
Asked as to the reason o. Inc employment
of the Pinkerton men, E'ricl1 said they did
not see how else they could hate protection,
force order at Homestead and protect the
property.
F'rick said as to future difficulty it was
! in the hands of the authorities. Frick' 8
atten ton being called to the widespread
interest about an investigation said they
welcomed The proposed investigation and
were prepared to submit that which would
convince unprecedented men of the equity of
of their position.
Prick further said. regarding the politi-
cal situation: I'VE cannot afford to run
our business and politics at the same time -
He continued: 'sWe did not propose to
reduce the earnings of the employees below
those of other Amalgamated men in other
mills. We put in machinery that other
mills do not possess and increase the out
put and the earning of the men, and we
ask that reduction be made SO the earn
ings of our employees will be on par with
other workmen in other Amalgamated con-
Germs"

WEAVER or SILVER.
He Makes Lengthy Speech ON That suhjscs
At Council Bluffs, la.

CoUNcn. BLUFFS, Ia, July 7.-Genersl
Weaver, the Peoples party candidate for
the presidency, delivered speech Of some
length at Chatauqua today, on the subject
of free silver. Speaking OF the cry that
free silver would cause all gold to leave
the country aud cause silver to to take its
place, besides making this country the
dumping ground for European silver,
Weaver said thar the final remark was
made at meeting in Portland the other
day, when he said revereluy, "Oh Lord,
let Europe begin to dump" This country,
said Weaver, canno. make money that will
circulate beyond its shores. IL is only Oul-
lion money that reaches the other world.
Senator Sherman SAID a few days ago
that tue trouble with the American silver
dollar is you can't get rid of 1t; if you pay
it out it comes right back to you. That's
the kind of dollar for me. We want to
make money for the American people, not
for Asia or Europe. What we want in
this country is the old four hundred and
twelve and half grain that met with the
approval of Washington, Madison, Monroe,
Adams, jackson and Lincoln. Letus have
an unlimited coinage of silver at present.
Some one says suppose it gives US too
much money! Who is afraid of having too
mem Der, brother. you are living under an
economical system today where W per cant.
is carried on credit and per cent. cash.
President Whitney OF the Bankers associa-
ton of California has said that il the banks
were called upon today to pay depositors
in gold what they owe them, they could
not pay cents on the dollar, and il they
paid in currency, gold and silver they
could noe pay over 10 cents on the dollar,
and that is exactly true according to sta
tistics. Silver has been legislated down to
20 cents on the dollar basis, and that en-
ables England to take our 40 cent dollar as
bullion. when it is worth in India 100
cents. On every cargo of wheat they buy
1t brings the wheat raiser OF India in com
petition with the wheat raiser of this
country and has the same effect on cotton. y
Weaver said the bullion owner would
not realize the profits. 1t is generally said
he would. In conclusion Weaver appealed
to all to lay aside party idolitry and inves-
tigate. and having found the truth, go to
the polls and cast ballot on honor and
not on timiditV.
