how the manner in which the commit
tees on the Senate side are acting, or
rather. not acting, indicates that the
Senators have a doubt about it. At
any rate the Senate committees are do,
ing nothing. Those of the HOUSE with
the exception of Ways and Means and
Barking and Currency, have had moth
ing to act upon yet, but they will be
overrrn with bills as soon as the rules
af the House are adopted and the reg
ular introduction of bills begins. The
WAYS and Means committee is already
heels over head in the preparation of
the tariff bill. Two weeks, beginning
today, are to be given up to public hear
ing 10y the committee. The Banking &
Currency committee has been consider.
ing the johnson inconyertible bond bill,
and a proposition to repeal the tax on
State bank currency, but has arrived at
no definite conclusion concerning either.
The silver situation in the Senate has
materially changed IN the last three or
four days. For the first time there ls
perceptible wagering IN the heretofore
solid line of the silver Senators and
several Of them have practically admit.
ted IN their speeches that the repeal
bill would he passed, even while dcclar.

no longer denied that the repeaIers
have majority OF the Senate it is now
only a question of whether the repeal
ers can bring the bill to vote. "A
number of the Southern Senators have
stated that they will not f!llbuster TO
prevent a vote, and The popuist Sena-
tors are also opposed to tillbusterlng,
Senator Fetter having so stated on the
floor of the Senate Notwithstanding
all of this, the Senators from the North
west are still confident of their ability
to prevent IL vote. The test Is likely to
be make inside Of two or three weeks.
Then we shall know who wins.
President Cleveland certainly does
not look like sick man now; his eyes
are clear and bright and his movements
quick and elastic. and he has, since his
return to Washington, done an amount
of work that no sick man could have
perforated. Still, his physican-Dr.

CLASH OF AUTHORITY
MINISTER STEVENS CONCEDED
WITH COMMISSIONER BLOUNT
In the Hauling Down OF tho American
Flag From the Hawaiian SaptAi'
Japan 10 Not Hostile.

WASHINGTON, April 2o.-An obvi-
ously perfunctory official report about
300 words In length is the only document
Of a formal character which the Navy
Department has received from Admiral
Skerrett at Honolulu relative to Hawaiian
affairs since the United States flag was
hauled down and that OF the provisional
government hoisted in its place. The
letter was received last night. Beyond
the mere confirmation of newspaper
statements and the information that
everything was quiet in the Islands. there
Is nothing of interest in the report.
A private letter from a United states
official in Hawaii came in the mall last
night. In reference to the general beleI
that Commissioner Blount had halied
down the STARS and Stripes" without
consultation with Minister Stevens ana
Admiral Skerrett or any Of the represen-
tatives OF the United States In Honolulu,
the writer states that Mr.. Blount ala
have consultation with Mr.. stevens on
the subject, and while he does not say
so I'm so many words, inference TO be
drawn from his letter is that Mr.. stevens
coincided with the commissioner in his
action.
Another report, and one that has found
much currency in Honolulu. that the
Japanese in Hawaii are contemplating
resistance by force to American domina-
ton OF the islands, and that they have
received arms TO assist them in this
determination, is contradicted by the
writer. who states that the Japanese and
in fact, all the people Of the islands, are
peaceably inclined. and do not anticipate
