come law would. of course, render an i'm
mediate extra session of the next Congress
absolutely necessary. Should this plan be
tried, there might be repeated some of the
exciting scenes of the Forty fifth Congress-
when the supervisor of federal elections
was the basis of q bitter battle, while
Samuel j. Randall was Speaker. Upon
some such scheme as this, or upon financial
difficulties, the friends of an extra session
base their hopes. Certain 1t is that some
plan to force an ex xtra session will make It's
appearance soon after Congress meets next
Mo nday. More or less involved in this Is
the opposition to the reelection of Speaker
Crisp, who is at present retired into the
background on account of POLITICAL OBJ
jections which will become apparent before
the end of this Congress.

Unipstructed Delegates
Norfolk Ledger

Our Richmond correspondent, Bruce"
in his letter published in this issue, after
reclting the important measures which
have been passed upon by the Legislature
which is now about to close its session,
states that after that body adjourns inter-
est in national politics will be greatly aug
mented, and that in the State convention
which IS TO be held at the proper time to
send delegates TO the Chicago convention,
there will be strong movement made TO
have the delegation 90 uninstructed.
Apart from any desire of the voters OF
the State 10 become partlsans OF either
Mr.. Hill or Mr.. Cleveland, If any exists
as is suggested by Bruce" We think that
Virginia's representations at Chicago should
be left free to act for the best interests of
the party.
The custom of casting the vote of a
State as a unit, we know, has prevailed in
New York for many years, but New York
political methods are entirely different
from those OF Virginia. The right of local
representation in conventions has always
been more strongly maintained IN Virginia
than in New York. and we have no idea
that the refusal of the convention TO in-
struct delegates will be due TO the infu-
ence OF this or that candidate-it will rest
upon stronger grounds-the desire of the
Democratic voters for their representatives
10 unite with those of other portions OF
the country in nominating the most avail
able candidates.

THE BLAND FRse-colNAee BILL.
A Determination to Make IL speciai
Order for March 2fst or 2Sd.
fpv..foora,b % the Dfanatrh


WASHINGTON. February PA meeting OF
the Rules Committee Of the House has
been called tor Monday. at which action
will be taken on the request OF the silver
men that the Bland bill be made
a specIal order Of the House. There
will be formal conference OF the
Democ ratio members OF tho commit
tee tomorrow. As the result OF an
informal talk between the three Demo
Messrs. Crisp, Catchings, and McMil-
lin. determination has been reached
to bring in special order Oh the silver
question The form of this order Will be
fixed tomorrow. II has been determined
TO make the Bland free-cOinage bill q spe-
cial order for March Dist or Z2d. though
this date may possibly be changed. The
purpose IS 10 give the bill four days for
consideration in the House. WITHIN TINS
time the bill is 10 be debated and brought
TO a vote. No order will be made fixing a
time at which vote shall be taken, how
ever. at least for the present. The fact
that the order only makes the silver bill
q matter of special privilege tor Limited
period of time would perhaps make IT pos
slble for the antl-sllver men 70 prevent a
vote by means of tiliOusterlng tactics. Ii
is said, however, that. if necessary, rule
will be brought in TO bring the matter 10 q
vote. Still this will not be done unless II
is seen TO be absolutely necessary. Ihe
Rules Committee is reluctant 10 TX time
at which vote must be taken. 1t Is
thought by members of the committee
that flibustering will not be found TO sue
coed, and that the knowledge that rule
will be brought IN if necessary in order &c
check these tactics will be sufficient &c
prevent a resort to this method Of OBJ
strucuon.
1t Is at present the purpose of Repre-
sentatives Cochran of New YORK. Andrews
and O'Neill of Massachusetts and othel
anti-silyer men 10 fight the special orde'
OF the Rules Committee at the very outset
and endeavor to defeat it. While it is the
purpose Of the Rules Committee to report
the order on Monday, II is not intended tC
call it up for adoption by the House tol
some days.
A large number of members of Congress
were IN conference with the Speaker during
the day. and all represented Their opinions
on thesilver question. Senator Hill was Oh
among the gentlemen who had quite ionI
interviews with the Speaker.
