BLAND SILVER BILL
BEING URGED AS A SPECIAL CON-
TiNUlNG ORDER

On the Democratic side of the House AM
other Conference on the Springer Wool
Bill Secretary of state Negotiating II
New Treaty with France.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-The silver
men have eight or ten petitions in circu-
lation on the Democratic side of the
house urging the silver bill to be made
special continuing order and it is said,
have secured about 100 signatures.
There are some doubts as to the ex-
pediency of the movement but the silver
men mostly believe it may advance con.
sideration of the bill and are doing what
they can to bring the matter to an issue
early i'll the session. The resolution in
troduced by Mr.. Bland the day he re-
ported the bill fixed Feb. II as the day
on which the silver bill will be taken up,
but it is not expected ty the silver men
that they will succeed in getting
it up so early and they probably
will be content if by that time an order
be secured naming later date on which
the bill may be taken up. There is very
earnest work being done on both sides of
the question.
The anti-silver men are urging delay
and working to that end III the hope
that there may be developments which
will aid their cause and enable them to
find some way out of the difficulty. The
free coinage men are i'll favor of speedy
action and say on political grounds
alone, aside from the monetary princi-
pie involved, the sooner the issue is met
the better. The rules committee have
not yet taken up the subject The Peo-
pies party i'll the house of representa-
tives have joined with the free coinage
people generally i'll demanding prompt
consideration of the Bland bill.

DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE.
Cotton and silver Have Touched the Low
Water Mark.

Cotton and silver Have Touched the Low
Water Mark.
NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-R. G. Dun 81
Co.'S weekly review says;
Silver and cotton have declined yet
further, the latter to 3-l6c. the lowest
i'll many years, and silver bullion to Aid
at London, the lowest price ever re
corded, though there followed slight
recovery to AID. Cotton receipts and
exports have been larger than year
ago, but stocks on hand decrease slowly
and are very large. Wheat declined / lC
on sales of 46,0OO,00O bushels, exports
being seriously diminished, and corn has
fallen | Ic on sales of 100000 bushels,
western receipts being unusually large.
Lard and hogs are somewhat stronger
and coffee advanced &c, blU oil is H.
lower. For the first time in many
months exports of products from New
York fell little below those of the SAINT
week last year, but shipments at Other
ports continue very Large.
The production of pig iron about sIa-
tionary. Stocks of charcoal iron are
substantially unchanged and msold.
The stocks of anthracite are a little
smaller than "A month ago. Stocks of
coke iron are considerably larger and
soon the whole consumption will not
appear quite up to the enormous supply.
No change appears in the market for
pig iron and rails are in small demand
at fixed price. Bar iron does not i'm
prove and the demand for plates i,
smaller than expected, while the col
lapse of the combination in beams AND
barbed wire has had somewhat de
pressing influence. Larger sales OF cop.
per are reported at 1913, and fair dis
tribution of tin, while lead is tritie
lower. Reports from cities indicate q
general improvement in trade. Nearly
all southern points report an easier
money market and more hopeful pros
poets.
Business failures occurring through
out the country the past seven day
number 276, as compared with the tota
last week of 31G, and for the correspond
ng week last year 291.

II is manifest from Washington adj
vices that the proposition to return
the captured battle flags to Mexico has
kindled feeling of resentment among
army officers, and that many veterans
of '46 will vigorously oppose its pas
sage by the House. AS the Mexicans
have not asked for the flags, and are
either indifferent ON the subject or
hostile to the proposition, it is difficult
to see what good is likely to be ac-
comphshed BY pressing the measure;
especially as tits sure to encounter
opposition on this side}of the border.
It would be awkatd if bit of senti.
mentality based on the erroneous Col
umbian idea that the millennium i.
less than two years hence should de
velop into source Of international ir
ritation and hostility.

Great masses Of meteoric iron are
