best to hold an extra session of Congress or
not. The Ex-Governor declined to express
an opinion.

can State ticket in Ohio is elected by a small
majority, but l believe We will have the
electoral vote with the exception of Dan.

remember predicted the result at the Chi-
cago Convention"
"What will be your reward" was asked.
"Oh, we are all in it, he replied 81 guess

Canning cows were steady, also bulls and
calves. The feeder trade was quiet and
little changed.
For Saturday there was heavy run Of
hogs. Choice hogs were q trife better
and common ones not quite so good as yes
terday. The general market was In fine
condition, with the demand enough for
the supply. Best hogs started steady to
strong and continued regular to a good
close. Inferior hogs were weak to &c
lower in cases, yet there was no material
change, the very extreme range being
from S3s0a4I5.

THE SENATE SILVER ELL.

There are two provisions in the Senate sill
YER bill, either of which would prove fatal to
any action by the House which does not re-
turn the bill to the Senate. First, Is the
unconditional repeal of the act of 1890. which
makes notes Issued under that act in pay
meut OF silver legs tender. Second, is the
requirement that the silver now i'll the
treasury be coined. The effect of the latter
provision is to employ the mints with silver
already in the hands of The Government for
the next two or three years. Meantime what
will become of the current production of
silver? The repeal OF the act of 1890 viii
stop Government purchases, and the en-
ployment Of the mints in coming silver now
IN the treasury will close them to the silver
that is being produced meantime. AN Eng
lish bimetallist recently said that the cessa-
ton of silver purchases by the United States
wOuli cause silver to fall lower than its
lowest record. But this opinion was ex-
pressed in the belief that If the United
States should cease To purchase silver bullion
its mints would coin the current product
The so-called friends of silver have added
to the perplexities of the situation by closing
the mints against the current silver product.
The 4, 500, 900 ounces that has found mar
ketmonthly by the act OF 1890 will, should the
Senate bill become law. be thrown upon the
worlds market. 1t is probable, however,
that the House will amend the Senate bill
so as to continue the legal-tender quality to
treasury notes issued in purchase of silver
and to leave the silver bullion now owned
by the Government in the form of bullion.
But it does not follow because tie Senate
passed one silver coinage bill ii will pass
another There were two preliminary votes
taken which showed very narrow majority
for silver. The Senate appears to have
voted blndIy on the assumption that Sena-
tor Stewart had given some consideration
TO the bill that he had presented. Senators
who were thus deceived will hardly follow
Senator Stewart any farther. The cOnclu-
sion will probably be that the present law.
under which 4. 100000 ounces OF silver are
withdrawn from the market and converted
into legal-tender notes each month, is the
most friendly measure for silver that can at
present be devised. Free silver coinage must
wait the appreciation of silver bullion to at
least an approximation TO its former ratio
to gold
