NO FREE SILVER.

Probability That the Free Coinage ELL ID
Cloture Rule Will BE Re-
ported.
WASHINGTON, March 29.-Unless Mr.
Bland should be able to get the sigma
lures of the majority of the democrats
of the house to a petition asking the
committee on rules to report Il eloture
resolution the Bland bill will be laid on
the shelf. He will not be able to secure
the required number of signatures
The silver men nave understood that
q special order bringing in "A cloture
rule would be reported To the house to-
morrow and ~telegraphed to all their
men to be in the house tomorrow
This morning Speaker Crisp informed
them that no special order would be
brought in unless n majority of the
democratic members of the house signed
a petition that a cloture rule be
brought in.
Mr.. Bland was very downcast over
the news hat he might not be able To
force to n vote the measur he has
worked for so long. He admitted that
the report that the silver bill had met
with another set back and N which
practically meant its death without u
final vote was well founded, II said
that the matter was not absolutely set
tied.
Mr.. Pierce was n little more confident,
but he and Mr.. Bland said they would
have nothing To do with the circulation
of any more petitions. One of the other
silver men, however. attempted to get
signers to n petition of the nature sug-
gested by the speaker, but met with
poor success, for, as already stated,
thirty-five of the men who have here
tOfore voted for the silver bill refused
to sign it. Among the number We're
Mr.. Compton, of Maryland, who not
only declined to sign the petition. but
gave notice thai if any cloture resolu-
ton is brought in he will vote against
it. The anti-silver men are exultant
over the change in the situation, but
the pronounced silver advocates are ex-
ceedingly irritated and angry and do
not hesitate to Indignantly protest
against the treatment they have re-
ceived.

Russians Much Disturbed Over the Use or
Balloons by the The Fart
These Air ships May Play I'm Future
Wars.
ST.. PETERSBURG, March 31.-The
presence of balloons owe the forts and
encampments in Poland is becoming
more frequent than ever, and this fact
is causing much indignation among
army officers, who are helpless to pre-
vent military secrets from becoming
known to the German officers who are
known to be taking observations from
a height that places them beyond the
reach of any bullets aimed at them.
One of these balloons from the German
frontier recently appeared at kovno.
1t lowered above the fortress there
until the officer in command became so
greatly exasperated that he ordered
some of the soldiers to fire at the bal
loon and if possible to bring it to the
ground. Had the soldiers been able To
hit the silken bag floating so high in
the air and make u hole in it. il would
have meant a horrible death for its Oc-
cupants, but the range was too great
ard the powder burned in the attempt
was useless. The Germans continued
their observations, in nc way bothered
by the firing. and when they concluded
they returned whence they came.
The impression grows stronger daily
that the Germans have ut last solved the
long studied problem of aerial naviga-
ton. These balloons hat have appeared
over various parts of Poland are under
perfect control. They movein any de-
sired direction and the wind currents
have no perceptible effect on them. In
fact in at least one instance, it is known
that the balloon sailed directly against
a strong wind. Some of the observers
accounted for this on the ground that
the upper current in which the balloon
was moving was in an opposite direction
from the current nearer the earth.
This argument was rendered fallacious
in a very short time by the balloon
stopping over the military camp at
DomhrowicO and then maneuvering to
obtain positions from which the camp
could be studied in detail. The motive
power employed and the means
adopted for steering are utterly I'M
known. but all the facts in connec-
ton with the appearance of these bal
looms go to show that they are under
absolute control. The possibilities of a
perfect system of aerial navigation are
thoroughly understood by Russian
officers, but they are absolutely help
less to guard against them. 1t is the
fact of their utter helplessness that
renders their indignation more deepand
hitter

II Is Thought That Congress May Adjourn
by That Date.
WASHINGTON. March 29.-The Springer
free wool bill will be brought to a vote
April - or % unless there should be -
hitch in the present programmes. The
binding Irvine and cotton bagging bills
will then be pushed to n vote as
soon as possible to be followed per
haps by other specific bills attacking
separate items of the Mckinley
law. With these measures disposed of
in the house and the appropriation bills
in excellent shape so far as the house is
concerned, the democratic majority of
the ways and means committee believe
that an early adjournment of congress
is possible, and accordingly discussed
the adjournment question To
some extent yesterday. No conclusion
was reached. but the sentiment was
favorable to June 1 as the date of final
adjournment. This is an unusually
early date for adjOurnmert and there
are many persons VINO believe fin2l adj
journment win be delayed many weeks
after the date FAMED, but still the Snti-
ment expressed by the majority MEM
bers of the ways and means committee
is significant as showing What they be-
lieve is possible.

held to concede the point that has been
the principal cause of contention. viz:
A renewal of the modus vivendi of the

believed to be implied in his proposition
to agree to IL mOdus in ease the treaty
of arbitration is ratified. under the con
dition that the United States govern
mehts shall guarantee the other for dam
ages in causing suspension of scaling
operations
The official. who has been consulted

with Lord Salisbury's admission that
Great Britain would hold itself liable
for damages resulting to- the United
States because of the moduS vivendi in
the event that the verdict of the arbi-.
tratiOn is adverse to the contention Its
is said that taken all together Lord
~Salisbury's note is satisfactory, as indi-
eating Il good prospect for an amicable
settlement of the questions at issue.
Lord Salisbury's last communication
to the president stating the grounds ON
which he would consent to- renew h
modus vivendi was laid before the SEN
ate o after it went into executive
session. In transmitting the paper To

and does not afford any pasture. The

will be severely felt; but notice dis

On Friday, January 22nd, while c. S.
Staubus and wife were away from
home, party entered the house, went
through all the rooms, trunks, etc.,
took Mr.. Stanbus' watch, razor and
cuff buttons, and breast-pin and ear
rings belonging to Mrs. Staubus. How
much more we don't know, as it was
night when they arrived home. At $3.50
Mr.. Staubus and Squire Boggs went
to 2. E. Hussey's, got him and his
blood hounds, took them to the place
where the stealing was done, and to
the bureau where the things were TAX
en- out. The hounds at once took the
scent, baying continually. The door
was then opened and they took track,
giving tongue freely. They were fol-
lowed by P. E. Hussey, G. s. Staubus,
j. Hoag, Squire Boggs and Thomas
Pomroy. After going quite way from
tue house, Hussey put close muzzles
on the hounds, so as to get to the home
of the thief without much noise. They
arrived at the house of very nice man.
They will give the party two weeks to
return those articles. If they fail to
comply with this request, they will
then have them put under arrest. The
party had better take warning and re-
turn the articles. LAW.
