terms in the House as n delegate from
idaho. He was once Marshal of the Ter
ritory. and as much as any other man,
was instrumental in securing its admis-
sion as a State. He did not shine very
brilliantly on the floor of the House.
Quiet and reserved, he had very little to
say. Transferred to the Senate. however.
he has taken a commanding position.
Aggressive in debate. he hews to the line,
regardless as TO where the chips fall. His
speeches have been short. compact, and
very telling. Above ALL he Is wary and
watchful, and ever In attendance on the
sessions OF the Senate. He apparently
has little veneration for the hoary en-
tiaues OF the chamber. and less venera-
tion still for precedent and etiquette. lie
talks like n man fresh from the people.
and assumes that as such he ought 10
receive the same consideration end
senator's. This shocks the nerve OF the
antiques. but IL undoubtedly fastens Sena-
tor Dublos In the affections of the people
OF Idaho. He Is fighting for their inter-
ests. and is the last man to listen TO any
compromise that does not provide for :hc
free coinage of silver.
Near Dubois you see a stern. clean
shaven face. with n strong chin and
perspective faculties well developed. Tho

gentleman wears an Old-fashioned stand
up collar with black cutaway coat and

Allen presents u marked contrast to

fcorrespondence OF the pIspatch.l

WASHINGTON, d. c., october H.-Here
they sit punched together near the main
entrance to the Senate chamber. They
are a Macedonian phalanx known as the
silver senator's. What care they for angry
protest from Eastern and Middle States?
They laugh at them. They are not the
representatives OF those States. They lis
ten to the appeals OF the States lying
close to the backbone of the continent
States that have honored them and look
to them for protection. Whether their
views are broad and statesmanlike Is not
the question with them. They represent
the vital interests of the people OF Ne
vada. Colorado. Idaho. Montana, and out
lying sections. 1t is to these people that
they look for political preferment and
not to the people of the East. Indeed,
az they say, the sufferings Of their people
are far more poignant than the suffer-
ings of others. Nerved by the cries OF
their constituents they have determined to
fight the VOORHEES, bill to the last They
have power to defeat any action by fili-
clustering, and they intend to use 1t.
There is no doubt about 1t; they mean IT,
The most of them are comparatively
young men and have the physical endu-
rance to carry out their intentions The
rules of the Senate favor them. with
two of their number in the House they
can fiIibuster indefinitely, while their OPP
moments must maintain quorum TO do
any business whatever.
Senator Stewart. of Nevada, Is the Alex
ander Of this phalanx. He occupies
seat at the head of the main aisle nearest
the door. His very figure, let alone his
record and attitude. is protest against
any action. He was q farmers boy, ana
had cut the leading swath over many
an acre OF timothy. He has been a miner
and has used the pan and worked the
rocker In California and Nevada. He has
been a lawyer in mining camps and he
was once prosecuting attorney, and after
wards attorneys general of California.
Anon. he was a leading spirit In the de-
yelopment of the celebrated Comstock
Lode. The Senator has faced death more
than once In his early days. There Is
no doubt of his determination and the
rigidty of his backbone. Tall, erect, gray
bearded and gray-headed, all that he
wants is a scythc to give him resem-

SENATOR sTEWART.

blance to Father Time. Aroused in de-
bate he is the most striking figure I'm the
Senate He has not yet concluded his
speech on the silver question, and the
Lord alone knows when he will finish IL.
one ludicrous incident of the speech will
bear repeating. After detailing the legis-
lation as to gold and silver for years. he
suddenly turned toward the Democratic
side and said: "And now you propose to
introduce this Trojan horse into our
midst"
Before the sentence was concluded the
door opened and Colonel John X. Fellows
entered. Stewart was facing him with
both hands uplfted. Fellows seemed
somewhat dun r1bfounded. Entering the
cloak room in apparent excitement he
turned to Senator Blackburn and said, as
he dropped on the sofa, who told Stew
art that / was born in Troy?'
Near Stewart sits his lieutenant, the
ever-ready Senator Wolcott, of Colorado.
There is Bourke Cochran look to his
face. although 1t lacks Cockran's heavily
lidded eyes. His shoulders are broad; his
chest expansive and there Is something
of the Norman horse in his composition.
He has a pleasant face. with varying ex-
pressons Ii IL hard to tell at times
whether ne Is ruled by a spirit OF humor
or whether his intellect Is dripping with
sarcasm All we know Is he Is the best
hand-to-hand fighter among the silver
men. Rather negligee in dress, his ap-
pearance is highly creditable to his
tailor But Wolcott has an Intellect and
a diction in full consonance with his
dress. Whenever 1t is known that he Is
to speak the galleries are always crowded,
and they well may be. for he made his
reputation in the Senate by writing his
speeches and committing them TO mem
DRY. This was probably owing To lack
of confidence. Since then he speaks ex-
temporaneously and produces even a
greater impression.
DELIGHTS IN TEASING.
Near him sits his colleague. Senator
Teller. He wears spectacles; his features
are sharp and his physique thin ana
wlry. He combs his hair a la Andrew
Jackson. He wears a frock coat ana
black clothes, and his shirt-front Is hidden
by a large four-in-hand black tie. Sena-
tor Tellor. while a good talker himself,
apears to take delight In interrupting
others. He leases bis opponent by put
ting pat questions. Woe to the man who
has not facts and figures for his asser-
tions: Teller will turn him on the first
opportunity. Like Stewart. Teller was
born on a New York farm. He never
held an office until he was elected to the
United States Senate. He was President
Arthur's Secretary OF the Interior.
Not twenty feet from Senator Stewart
sits a rotund roly-poly gentleman. with
an expansive shirt-front and trimmed

and ended tho contest by electing him
senator In the Senate he has been re-
served and modest. No man is moro
courteous in his treatment OF the antiques.
He gracefully gives way TO them on ques-
tiOns OF etiquette, and when he has any
thing to say he says IL with the fervor
which characterizes men OF his cloth in
the West He is in the phalanx to staN

Senator Power. OF Montana. The face
Is thin and white: the features sharp and

Power Is said to be one OF the keenest
men In Montana. His face certainly indi-
Gates ability OF no mean order. While
not showy on the field OF battle. he Is
apt to make himself felt in council
OF war. His judgment Is good and his
manipulation of adverse circumstances
much better Power Is one OF the most
trusted men In the phalanx. Montana
may repay him by reelection.
SHOUP OF IDAHO.
Seated 10 the right of Pettigrew u one
who ought TO have been with Leondfas at
the Pass Of Thermopylae. He Is an un-
demonstratiye private In the silver
phalanx. This is Senator George l..
Shoup, OF Idaho. He Is tsll and OF spare
figure. He has u grayish moustache. ana
a small quantity OF gray hair frfnses his
head. He has a slight stoop when stand
ing, and withal bears striking resem-
bIance to Senator Gaiiinger OF NeV
Hampshire.
Last OF all comes the successor OF John
J. Ingalls,, the redoubtabIe Senator PETER.
His length Of beard has given him
national reputation. His head II very
small and his body very thin. A Kansas
Democrat once spoke OF him thus: He
resembles a shaddock stuck upon . pin."
