Tho above list Of repealerR 10 that on which
the Administration has based it's hopes. but It
ia only apparent and not real strength. for an
analysis OF the position Of each man consider
ably weakens tho list. First. there are two ABB
sentees. and then there are nine Democrats
and four Republicans who hope for compro-
mise and would vote for It. This reduces the
Administration column from forty-eight to
thirty three. The fractures In the broken reed
on which the President has been leaning are
as follows

Senator Allisoa in nm interview in THE Sun
TODAY. said that COMPROMISE is probably the
outcome OF the situation. John sherman had
said so before. and at n time when the as
sertion by such "A man hurt the cause Of repeal
worse than anything else could have harm ed
It. Senator Frye is in tho same position. He
ia an ardent repealer. but SAYS that repeal
cannot be accom- pished. Moreover. he said it
n month ago. Everybody knows that Camden
OF West Virginia is a compromiser. Senator
Carey OF Wyoming Is in the UNIQUE posi-
tion OF n calf being led TO SOW
cral difYerent kinds of slaughter He
is saving nothing for himself, but allows
himself to be spoken for by others az II he
wore n weatheryane. Mr. Washburn an
noupced In the Senate one day that Carey and
Squire Of Washington would both vote for un-
conditional repeal. Senator Dubois. leader OF
the silver forces. declared that both would
vote for silver. Mr.. Squire was absent. but
has submitted a com promise measure already.
Mr.. Carey said nothing. though he was present
in his seat. Perhaps It was as we'll. for every
a compromise II It came up with Il show
for passage. Tho positions Of Senators Faulk-
ner and German are interesting. They arc the
two IN en- who won the especial thanks Of the
Democracy for killing the Force bill by flli-
clustering That fact weakens them in this
fight In view Of the silver service presented
to Mr. German as the arch fllibuster against
the iniqutous Force bill. he cannot now stig-
matize the silver mon as traitors and scoun-
drels. In view also OF Mr. Faulkner's
seventeen hours speech against that
blow aimed at our liberties he cannot
