Washington News.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 3O.-Ispecial.l
| No end to the Worlds Fair entAnHiemoDt
can yet be seen. The flibusterers declare
that they will keep up the fight until next
December rather than yield. Representa-
tive Jones, Of Virginia. says he would rather
remain here until time for the assemblying
of the next session than to permit the five
million togo through. He says:
I'm the first place the men who are clsmor-
ing for it are those who were chiefly in
strumental In defeating the Silver bill.
/ They denounced silver % dlBnOnest money,
worth only sixty-seven cents TO the dollar.
and prated Of their devotion to the lsboring
people. They said they did not want the
5aborer cheated by paying him IN dishonest
Money. But now" continued Mr.. Jones.
"tLey are asking us t. donate
| tAem five millions OF this dis
honest money With which To pay
The laborers and artisans working on the
Exposition" Mr. Jones said that conside-
ration alone would influence him 80 HghS
the appropriation; but that he has other
reasons. One is be Is satiied the money If
appropriated viii be used IN part 10 aid the
Republican canvass IN Illinois. Besides. he
: does not believe Congress has any constitu-
/ tional authority 10 vote public money for
such purpose.
The talk of q compromise is increasing.
/ and an illinois congressman who is hearty
supporter of the appropriation, said this
! evening he would not be SURPRISED 70 see an
early adjustment. He said the proposition
most acceptable to the Fam people is to set
/ day early in next December foI vote oa
the five million as q separate proposition.
SUGGESTION.
The suggestion Is that the Fair appropria-
/ alton DO eliminated from the Sundry Civil
/ bill, and that the latter be passed; th2t the
| five million appropriation be embodied In q
separate and distinct bill TO be voted upon
/ no8tDecember. Friends OF the Fair say there
is no doubt that the appropriation would
| pass the House next session by decided
/ majority. DirectOr-G General Davis and Com
mander st. Clair, however. are not yet ready
| 10 accent any compromise. IheY SAID to-
night that they intendlto continue the fight
feeling confident Of ultimate success. Inc
! Republican members Of the House who ara
contending for the Fair appropriation to-
/ day objected % the adoption OF resolution
| continuing the sundry eivA appropriations
as made by the last Congress. They did
this to cOrapel the flibusters 10 yield. on the
/ ground that further resistance would en-
barrass the Government.
After the adoption Of the resolution had
been prevented Senator Allison went over
to the House and advised Taylor, Bingham
| and other Republicans who had objected
that they had made o mistake Tay-
lor. who Is from Chicago, said tonight
{ that in his opinion the passage Of the e1~
tension resolution should be prevented, but
he supposed the members would have 20
/ WELD 10 Allison's advice. The would 1m-
ply that the Republicans may yet assent to
the consideration and adoption OF the reso-
| luton II they do II may be accepted as
almost an assured fact that the hlipusters
viii not permit the passage OF the Worlds
Fair Appropriation.

| Carolina az be has ascertained it from
personal inquiry and observation. Mir.
Simmons said to-day that nothing had been
decided upon beyond the fact that the
Democrats intend 10 make stubborn,
courageous fight. and they believe they Will
hold the North State in the Democratic
column. AS the opposition has not yet deter
mined its policy Mr.. Simmons said the
| Democrats could not yet tell just what
they will have 20 confront. There is
talk of coalition between the Third
party and the Republicans, whiie some re-
publicans prefer and contend for a straight
