WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent.


ject that is to come before Congress
is to be dragged into the silver ques-
ton, and to be shelved until that
question is disposed Of. 1t has just
been ascertained that a sort of COM
bination has been formed to prevent
congressional action being taken on
the admission of Arizona, New Mexico,
Oklahoma, and Utah. al states until
the silver legislation has been disposed
oil. This combination originated, so
it is stated here, in New York City,
and according to those who are in it
the reason for its existence is the fear
that the admission of those four ter
ritories' as states would add eight votes
TO the already strong. silver party in
the Senate. 1t is said that President
Cleveland has approved Of the idea
and promised to help IL along with his
influence; also that republicans as
democrats are in ID.
II Senator Hill wishes an excuse
to make war upon President Cleve-
land the latter has certainly given
him one in the three federal appoint
ments just made for New York-the
Collector and Appraiser at New York
City, and the Collector at Piatts-
burgh-all of whom are outspoken
enemies Of Senator Hill, and the
last named is said 70 be especially dis
tasteful TO Senator Murphy, inasmuch
as it in . section of the state in
which he expected TO be consulted
about, II he did not actually control
the appointment. The snti-Hill
democrats in Washington are delight
ed with. these appointments and the
Hill men are laying low. like br'er
Rabbit, and saying little. Whether
Senators Hill and Murphy could get
enough votes in the Senate to defeat

II he had any further communications to

none. At that time he had the report of

might involve an act of war, If not declar-

season when the farmer kills his hogs and
the populists are supposed to be killed about
the same time. Whenever we are killed we

they'll cover the entire country. Seriously"
