Mr.. Bland and His Supporter;

The Advocates or Free silver Hold
the Presiding ofiiccr Responsible
FOR It's nefeat--The Action, They
say, Means the Nominations Or
Cleveland.
WASHINGTON, March 20 After con-
snltation with some Of his supporters,
Mr.. Bland endeavored to get the requis-
tie number Of names to detition to the
committee on rulos asking 1t to set apart
time for the consideration Of the free
coinage bill and to bring in cloture
rule. But. ON further consideration the
Bland men decided that they would
withdraw the petition and give up the
fight. The anti-silver men circulated
the report that thirty-five silver Demo
Gratis had refused to sign the petition,
and this had the effect OF keeping many
Of those who had heretofore supported
the bill and programme from putting
their names to the paper, The Bland
men We're much discouraged by this
falling away in theif number, and it
was after they began to see how large
the detection was they decided to with
draw the petition.
Mr.. Bland said he has given mp the
fight and will make no further attempt
to bring the bill to vote. Mr.. Bland
and his associates take the mattery very
philosophicaliy. They agree that Il
means the nomination of Grover Cleve-
land.
Speaking for Mr.. Bland and the free
silver men, Mr.. Pierce, Of Tennessee,
said: I'VE win not push the matter fur
ther, but will let the committee on rules
assume the responsibility for the defeat
OF the bill before the people Of the
country
Criticizing Speaker Crisp.
There is much i'll feeling expressed by
the silver men on account OF Speaker
Crisps stand in deciding against report
ing closure rule unless supported by q
majority Of his party. He has broken
his word given to Mr.. Bland, Mr.. Pierce,
Mr.. Stone, Of Kentucky, and others.
Mr.. Blandsaid that Thursday night, inst
before he moved to ad journ the house and
thus lost the support Of the special order
for voting on his bill, he had consulta-
ton with Speaker Crisp on the best
course to pursue in order to save the
bill. from defeat, and that Mr.. Crisp as
sured him that II he moved nn adj0urn-
Inent the committee on rules would
bring In another special order providing
for direct vote on the bill and pending
amendments, and also provision for
cloture.
Charges Breach or Faith.
Satisfied with this Mr.. Bland says he
moved to adjourn, and next day, under
the guidance and advice of the speaker,
drafted the resolution which he intro
duced, setting apart yesterday for vote
on the bill and also providing for clos
ure. Mr.. Crisp assured him, says Mr..
Bland, that he would vote for this order
in the committee ON rules, and that il
would undoubtedly be brought in. In
view of these assurances Mr.. Bland
thinks the speakers present attitude Ii
inconsistent and hard to explain, and he
says he cannot understand why Mr..
Crisp went back on the promises he gave
to himself and the other gentlemen
mentioned
