PLANS OF SILVER SENATOR'S.
How they Propose to Make Test of their
Strength.

How they Propose to Make Test of their
Strength.
WASHINGTON Aug. 19.-The Star this even
ing tells how the silver men in the senate
will test their strength without bringing up
the question Of unconditional repeal. 1t is
an interesting story and runs as follows:
''The plan which has been devised by the
democratic leaders in the senate who are op-
posed to the unconditional repeal of the
Sherman law is regarded as ole of the most
infamous examples of parliamentary tactics
which has been exhibited IN that body. 1t
is one that will permit the silver men to
make a test of their strength without the
risk of a vote on the repeal bill The pro-
gram appears to have been very skilfully
contriveG and carried out, up to the present
stage, with great forethought ami
accuracy. The bill to permit banks
to issue currency to the full face value
of the bonds deposited in the treasury is one
which is favored by the anti-silver men, and
one which they would hardly expect to have
pressed to the front by the silver advocates.
Therefore, they saw no objection whatever
to the prompt report of the measure from
the committee on finance and no danger in
Its getting in on the calendar in the real
state of affairs before the repeal was re
ported. They are gratiied, moreover, by
| the action of the finance committee in re
| porting bill for the unconditional repeal O
| the Sherman law, with an attachment OF
what appears to be merely an empty declara-
tion in favor of bimetallism.
Pledges 10 the silver Men.
There appears to be, however, deeper
depth than that to which they have pene
trated. The silver men are said to have
| pledge from members of the finance com
| mittee that the banking bill first reported
| shall be disposed of before the repeal bill is
taken up for consideration. This opens tn,
way to the development of situation no
apparent ~ first glance. In the first place
great deal of time may be consumed in tn
discussion of the bank bill, and in these con
ditions the bill is subject to amendmen
indefinitely. The silver men expect this bill
to be amended in such a way as to develo
il into broad and general financial measure
with SILVER out of the question tn
amendments likely to be adopted are such /,
may either meet with the approval of tn
anti-silver men or not be violently oppose
by themA If no silver amendment is attaohe
to the bill II is TO come out of the senate /
of the administration forces, and it will
apt to pass the house. But 1t is understoo
to be a part of the plan of the silver men
have an amendment offered providing for II
free coinage of silver at u ratio of 20 to l, {
for any other silver proposition which ma

STRIKING WELSH MINERS.

Troops Asked for to suppress Disorders In
the Distridts Affected.
LONDON, Aug. l9.-The situation in south
Wales, owing to the strike has not i'm
proved Great military and police prepara-
tions have been taken and the seriousness of
the situation can be judged by the fact that
the coal owners have asked for 1000 in
fantry and 1000 cavalry to protect the col
lieries and the working Golfers. Over 700
infantry left Plymouth IN trains for Rhonda
valley and 500 will proceed today.
The desperate measures which the men
are taking in order to coerce the coal owners
were shown yesterday when body OF
strikers endeavored to stop work in the col
liery, which alone supplies the Pont-y-Pridd
gas works in order to put the town in dark
ness, while today stones were found on the
railroad line, which evidently had been
placed there by the strikers.
The district has the appearance of being
in n state of siege. Sentipels are stationed
on the hill tops and arc md the colliers in
order to announce the approach of strikers
to the troops. Police are guarding the
collieries, of which less than twenty out of
204 are now working, The working collieres
are chiefly :n the Ebbyale district and the
strikers announce their intention of march
ing there on Monday, many thousand strong
to stop work The mino owners appear to
be resolute in their refusal to concede the 90
per cent advance. 1t is estimated the men
| have already lost e3o, 900 iu wages, while the
| output of the collieries, which nomin ally is
| 23,O0OO 600 tons has fallen to 9, 100000 tons.
| In the midlands, where; nearly 100000
miners are striking, q more peaceful
situation prevails.
| Causing Great Inconvenience.
LONDON, Aug. 19.-The scarcity of coal is
causing great Inconvenience among the tin
platers and Scotch iron masters. Several
meetings have been held both by the nine
owners and the men in the last two days,
but to no palpable purpose. Many nine
owners seem willing to allow the strikers to
resume work at the old wages without refer
ence to the miners delnands for an increase,
or their own proposals for IA decrease OF
wages. A conference wffl be convened in
London on Tuesday for the purpose of agree
ing on terms of settlement.
At the meeting of the delegates Of the
Fifeshire miners it: was, decided that the
masters offer of ,l2ls Der cent advance il
wages be declined and that the men leave
the pits. This means that II, 900 Fifeshirt
miners will go out Monday.

PARIS, Aug. 19.-INew York Herald Cable
Special to THE BEE. l. The general election
takes place tomorrow, Sunday. The last
Chamber was elected in 1889, in the midst of
the Bouanger crisis. The struggle was
fierce one, and in every part Of the country
public excitement was at white heat. M.
Constans was at the head of the govern
ment, and the pressure he brought to bear
upon the public was of a kind until then
unknown in French politics. The result
was Boulangism was completely defeated.
Today complete calm relgns throughout
the length and breadth of France. We're it
not for the many -colored electoral posters
that cover every available inch of wall, no
one would know who the men are that are
asking so be elected on tomorrow as the rep
resentatives of the country. The indiffer
ence of the public as to the result is almost
complete, except in few departments. The
Dupuis ministry, although exercising as
much influence over public opinion as it can,
has not resorted to the means employed by
the Constans in 1889.
They're After Clemenceau.
This is the reason why the combine is
complete. The ouly point at which the
in the district of The Var, where Clemenceau
is carrying on desperate and determined
fight Everywhere in the district meetings
are being held at which all parties are at
tacking Clemenceau with the accusation of
having SOLD himself to England. This cam
paigr seems to be succeeding for Clemen-
ceaus election, which a fortnight ago ap-
peared to be certain, is now extremely

curate estimate of the general result of to

| The conservative group that has accepted q
republc as the definite form of government

they are calied-will gain thirty seats. The
radicals will lose some seats and so will some
of the opportunists. The French people
want a conservative republic, because q
republican form of government now satisfies
the entire country, except few of the
large cities, which will elect socialists
| France would like to see new men In power
but wants them to be as good as good repub
