WILSON OF WEST VIRGINIA.

LAKEWOOD, N. j., Feb. 5.-Con.
gresham Wilson OF West Virginia
spent last evening with Mr.. Cleveland
and Don n. Dickinson at the Cieve.
land cottage, and had another long
talk with the President.elect today.
Mr.. Wilson when asked this evening
what were the prospects u the silver
bill passing both houses Of Congress
before the end OF the present session
said:
at depends largely upon the com.
mittee on rules. II the committee
report the rule requiring q final vote
ON ths silver bill In u certain time and
the House decides 10 vote ON the meas.
ure, am satisfied the bill will pass
the House. In the Senate, however,
there is u sufficient minority against
the repeal OF the Sherman law abso-
lutely to prevent the passage OF the
bill this session. The time IL too short,
In my opinion, for the repeal Of the
silver law Mt the present session."
Mr.. Wilson declined TO discuss the
cabinet possibilities. Mr.. Cleveland
remained quietly at the cottage all day.
He announced this evening that he
will remain here all Of the coming
week In order to dispose Of several
matters OF importance.

Another Tcason for the rslleence ut

the present oelllc0so speeches made by
leading generals who speak outon the
necessity OF military reforms. The
generals, In enthusiastic obedience 10
the orders, went beyond their instruc-
lions, and the terms used by them
would have been justified only had
Europe been on the eve OF n general
conflict.
Whatever may DO the effect OF these
utterances outside Of Germany the
influence on the Relchstag will be
small. The iate OF the bill rests with
the Center party. Unlmpeachable

WASHINGTON CITY. Dec. l5.-The possi-
bility of new political party, with free
silver coinage as the sole plank of the
platform, was among the developments of
the days secret session of silver leaders.
The day was devoted to expressions of
opinion of representatives of the different
states. They were uniformly to the effect
that the working people and farmers were
dissatisfied with the course OF congress In
repeating the purchase clause of the Sher-
man act. Senators Jones and Stewart,
Master Workman Sovereign, of the
Knights of Labor, ani National Lecturer
Whitehead. of the Grange. were among
the speakers of the afternoon.
During the address of Senator Jones an
interesting colloquy occurred between him
and Master Workman Sovereign. The
latter suggested that when iabor's ranks
had assisted toward securing free silver
there should be reciprocity by which the
silver leaders would assist in securing labor
reforms. Jones contended that all the
labor questions were merged in the money
question, and its sout on would settle
them all. Sovereign and the senator at
last ret on common ground, agreeing that
the silver question should be made the
paramount issue OF all labor and industrial
organizations.
Frequent references were made during
the speeches today to the necessity of or
ganizing a silver party made up of the eie-
ments heretofore gathered under the stan
dard OF the Popuiists. National Grange.
knights of Labor, Farmers Alliance. etc.
The tendency of the conference is towards
this new organization. The probability Is
that the first effort of the united forces
WILL be exerted to carry the congressional
elections next fall. 1t is undecided
whether this will be done by nominating
independent silver candidates for congress
or by indorsing such candidates Of the old
parties as have shown ny their records that
they favor silver. The belief Of those
attending the conference is that ma
tional silver ticket will be put in the field
as result of the present meeting and of
the victories hoped TO be achieved in the
congressional elections. Senator Jones
said st the close of today's conference that
this new national party was among the
strong probabilities of the meeting.
Among those present today were Gems.
Weaver and Field, of Iowa; Kalb. of Ala
bams. and Morton Frcwen, the we'll
known British free silver advocate
