SENATE PROCEEDINGS.
Debate ON the Free Coinage Bill to BE
Had Tuesday.

Debate ON the Free Coinage Bill to BE
Had Tuesday.
WASHINGTON, May N.-In Thursdays
senate calendar, under the head of un-
finished business, was Dolph's bill to
provide for the punishment of viola
tions of treaty rights Of aliens. In to-
days calendar that bill appeared in its
regular number near the end OF the
order of business, having lost its place
by the action of the senate yesterday in
taking up Stewards bill for the free
coinage of gold and silver. This bill
now occupies the point of vantage as
unfinished business, and that position
it may occupy for an indefinite period.
Morgan's resolution on the subject of
currency stood at the head of subjects
to be taken up under rule s, 60 the
question of silver had the precedence
today over every other subject, but
Morgan voluntarily abandoned the
right and consented to have his resolu-
ton laid aside without action. The
calendar was then taken up.
A bill has passed to reclassify the
salaries of railroad postal clerks. It
fixes the maximum pay of the various
classes at $500 to 81. 800.
When the morning hour had expired
the presiding officer announced unfin-
ished business to be the free coinage
bill. No amendments being offered,
and no senator taking the floor, he an
nounced that the committee OF the
whole was discharged and that the bill
was now before the senate.
Sherman said he knew of several SEN
ators who wanted to address the senate,
but they were not present. He, him
self, desired to speak upon the bill, but
had sent to the treasury for certain in
formation first. He suggested that the
bill go over until Tuesday.
Stewart suggested that unanimous
consent be given that the bill be taken up
from day to day, but Sherman objected,
whereupon Stewart suggested that it
would be best to vote now. To this
Sherman retorted that after the way
the bill was taken up, it would be quite
in keeping if the bill be taken up now.
Then ensued an acrimonious little
spat between Teller and Sherman as to
cutting off debate, etc. Finally Stewart
got unanimous conset nthat the bill be
taken up as unfinished business Tuesday
next at 2 O'Clock, and the senate ad-
journed until Tuesday.
In executive session the senate con-
frmed the appointments Of Maj. F. G..
Ainsworth as chief of the record and
pension Office of the war department,
and Thomas F. Wilson, as United States
attorney for Arizona.

IS THE GRANT letter GENUINE?
Editor Brickell Explains How
He Obtained a Copy.
Grounds for Belief That 1t Is Fake
and Forgery.
The Publisher Processes to Believe,
However, that Grant Really Wrote
Such Letter to
Conkling.

By the Associated Pressl
New YoRK, May 27.-W. D. Brickell,
proprietor of the Columbus (Ohio) Die
patch, was seen today in regard to the
letter recently published purporting to
be from General Grant to Roscoe Conk-
ling. He said last May George Shepard
Page of New York, when visiting in Co.
lumbus, showed him the letter one day,
which he asserted was the original
and genuine letter from Grant to
Conkling. As near as those in
the Office could determine the letter was
original. Page allowed copy to be
taken, but insisted that it should not be
published at that time. He said he
came by the letter by combination Of
luck, strategy and questionable meth
ods." Birckell happened to run across
the copy couple of weeks ago, and as
Page is now dead. he thought there
would be no objection to publishing it,
and he brought it out without thought
as to its political bearing.

A Mammoth Picnic which tho Editorial
Tourists Attended.
j., CnIco, CAL, May 27.-A better day
for the mammoth Northern California
picnic given by the citizens Of Chico
could not have been expected. The city
of roses wore beautiful appearance /;
decorations we're displayed everywhere.
The visitors began to arrive as early as 8
O'Clock this morning, and the streeta
were soon jammed, A procession COM
posed Of military and civic societies and
citizens formed in town and marched to
the depot to receive the train from Red
ding, about 10 q. M, then marched
through the principal streets and out to
the picnic grounds of Gen. John Bidwell.
Those from Sacramento, via Woodland,
arrived at IL .. M, and the excursion.
lists were let off ct the grounds. The
Woodland band Of twenty-five pieces
accompanied the excursionists. Thir-
teen cars composed both excursions.
Owing to the absence of General Bid.
well the president of the day delivered
q welcome address. This was followed
by 2 grand patriotic chorus of 500 school
children, which was one of the grand
est things during the day. Addresses
were. then delivered by Hon. Eugene
Deupry, Justice Charles N. Fox and
Col. John P. Irish. Dancing began on q
platform at the grove Immediately on
the arrival of the procession, and con-
tinued all day.
At 1885 p. m. the train bearing the
Editorial association arrived. 1t was
met at the depot by hundreds of citi-
zens in carriages and escorted to the
picnic, where choice banquet was
spread, after which the editors were
escorted around the country.
Baseball, bicycle races, q riding tour
races were on the programme this after
noon. The day concluded with grand
ball this evening.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-The silver con-
vention met again this morning. Ad-
dresses were made by Mr., Shinn, OF
Kansas, and P. X. Thomas, OF Penneyl-
vania. The latter said ten years ago his
farm was worth $4,000. By the labor
of himself and family, he has been able
to save $500 year since. But the farm
has continually deprecated in value,
and is now worth only $4,000. This
shrinkage, he said, is due entirely to q
pernicious financial system operated in
the interest Of money-lenders, corpora
tions and monopolies, He denounced
both political parties, and said rather
than vote ior Cleveland with his free
trade ideas, he would vote for Queen
Victoria for president, and rather than
vote for that hypocritical, weakened
Republican party, he would vote for
Cleveland. AZ
Mr.. Merrick of Colorado explained

Gently decided by the supreme court Of
the district of Columbia against his ap-
plication for q mandamus to compel the
secretary of the treasury to receive and
coin q silver brick rendered him.
After q recess E. d. Stark of Ohio
read a long paper upon the general sub.
ject of silver, in which he expressed
himself as having no confidence in the
proposed international convention.
Morton Frewen, 2 well-known coinage
writer of England, spoke. Personally,
he said, he would prefer to see free
coinage Of silver brought about by an
international agreement, yet he had no
doubt America could restore silver to
it's old place without the least danger of
sending gold to q premium, and in that
event. he did not believe any silver of
consequence would come from Europe
to be exchanged for gold. ~.
Frewen hoped this government would
insist upon the proposed con-
ference being held in London.
During the last twenty years BIZ
metallism had been gaining friends in
ENGLAND, till now it is one Of the great
est Issues, and has among its earnest
friends at least 100 members OF parlia-
ment and great proportion of the
members of the London exchange. A
silver wave was sweeping over England,
and the general cause would be greatly
advanced by holding in her capital this
International conference.
Brief remarks were made by Messrs,
Newlands of Nevada and Teller and
Symes Of Colorado.
