His Appointments Delay Work on the Re
peal Bill.
The President Puts Powerful Weapon
In the Hands Of the Sllverltes.
Sunday ashington specials read as
follows: Not a word said on the repeal
bill o-day, and all because Mr.. Cleye
land was so anxious to send an Illinois
Democrat to supplant Maj. Ruffee 1T
White Eprth as Indian agent and Mis-
slsslppi Democrat to Yankton to take the
place of another Republican. That was
the Only reason why the senate wentinto
executive session. That was the reason
for the fight which consumed all the
time, drove away a quorum and preven-
ted any progress on sthe repeal bill.
Jones of Arkansas said that information
came direct from the executive mansion
that Cleveland wanted these appoint
ments confirmed, and he is still counting
on two votes from Minnesota to help
him carry the repeal bill through. One
reason why there has been so much de-.
lay in the senate is because Cleveland
has been sending in appointments and
and making it necessary for the senate to
hold the executive sessions which inter-
rupt the debate and give the silver men
an opportunity to rest. Yet the appoint
ments continue to flood the senate.
Cleveland may feel that it is more i'm
portant to get Republicans out than to
repeal the silver law. He is not helping
his cause with the Republicans by that
course. They feel that the president has
no right to throw opportunities in the
way of the silver men to cause DELAY. He
has the appappointment of Van Allen to
Italy furnished ammunition which will
consume plenty of time. Morgan of Ala
bama will report Van Allen to the senate
for the express purpose of consuming
hours and perhaps days. The silver men
are loading up for the purpose, and as
sure as there is an executive session when
time can be consumed it will be used.
After the two hours Cleveland failed to
have his outside Indian agents confirmed,
and it is possible that he will not get
them. .. ...
AS to the fate of the silver bill, no one
can tell. The New York papers are al
most ready to give up the fight. Here
in Washington those on the inside and
aware of the methods of the senate are
not so much surprised at the way things
are going. Perhaps after 'anot ther fort
night Or a month the silver resistance
will collapse. Ifnot, there is no end ex-
cept by continuous sittings of quorum
of the senate favoring repeal. .@S
The president of the United States will
be arraigned in the United States senate
on Monday for violating the spirit of the
constitution in endeavoring to DESTROY
the independence of the law-making
branch of the government, by seeking to
score congress into the passage of the re-
peal bill.
Notice to this effect was clearly indi-
Gated In a resolution this morning, pre-
sented by Senator Stewart of Nevada,
upon which the senator announced that
he would address the senate next Mon
day. This resolution declares that the
independence of the coordinate depart
ments Of the government must .1e main
tanned that the use of the power and in
fuence OF one department. to control the
action of another is in violation of the
constitution, and destructive to our form
of government. The introduction of the
resolution created quite a sensation, and
the discussion of the matter on Monday
will certainly attract great attention, as
it indicates the intention of the silver
senators to divert the discussion of the
senate to the alleged attempt of the pre-
sident to control the legislation Of con-
gress. ... #s n:
