pursued in the compromise matter bv
the administration. This is especially
ture OF the repeal members of the
steering committee. There is no doubt
they were led to believe an agreement
would be signed, that the Compromise
would be approved and the president
was at least willing that the bill as it
was amended should be passed. They
say it was altogether favorable to the
administration view. They do not
take kindly to the fact that they have
been allowed to go so far into the mat
ter and then be told they have acted
without warrant.
Senator Gray, strong repeal man.
who has taken an especially active
part, in securing this agree
ment, is among those who are
displeased with the change, and he ia
quoted as criticising the administra-
tion sharply upon what is character
lied as its vascillating policy.
Senators opposed to unconditional
repeal who have been endeavoring for
several days 20 bring about the COM
promise, are not deferred by the recent
declaration that no compromise will be
acceptable to the administration.
These senators are still laboring to se-
cure majority of the Democratic sem
ators to favor a compromise. One
said tonight that they have secured,
including Senator Daniel, who signed
today, 80 names.

1t is reported that there is detection
among the Republican repealers on
the adoption of cloture. Meanwhile
Senator Hill is vigorously working
away at his effort to get sufficient
number Of Democratic repealers to
agree to cloture. He said this morn
ing: 1--WE ought to strike while the
iron is hot" 1t is thought the presi-
dent might sign bill fixing Nov. of
next year ss the date for the repeal
bill to take effect, though he refuses to
be party to any bill that does not
make the act effective Immediately.
When the committee completed its
work, 80 far as the formulation of
compromise was concerned, it's men,
bers Immediately devoted themselves
to making votes on and passing it If
possible UP to 2:30 o'clock 36 Demo.
cratic senators had signed the agree
ment. 1t will be necessary to obtain
the signatures of A members in order
to insure its passage. Even then fill
clustering might prevent a vote unless
some character of cloture is presented.
The terms proposed as compromise
were the subject of deal of discussion
in the house this afternoon. The fact
that an authorization for bonds was
not feature brought relief to many
Republicans and Western Democrats.
The Democratic leaders, Speaker
Crisp, Catchings, Outhwaite, Sayers
and Culberson are in favor of the bill
when 1t comes up from the senate, and
should it come into the house before
the bankruptcy bill, which will be
made the continuing order for Mon
day, there will be q suspension in
order to give compromise the right of
way. Democratic leaders express
general confidence with the bill and
seem to feel certain it will find favor
with both wings of the lower house.
Ultra silver d. mocrats of the house,
like Bland, have no opinion to express
for publication but the prevailing
opinion is that in view of necessity for
show of party harmony they
will content themselves with
voting against the measure.
A goodly portion of the silver Demo-
Gratis will probably, however, vote for
compromise if votes are needed to SO.
| cure it's passage.
The Republicans have not yet de-
cided the course to pursue. They will
be governed largely by what their
political bretheren il the senate do,
There are two features Of compromise
to which they object. Failure to pro-
vide for a bond issue and coinage OF
seignorage in the treasury. Coinage
of seignorage would replenish the
treasury to the extent OF $4,000, ,0OO
and tide the administration over for
the next year if the deficit should not
be larger than at present estimated.

SENATE.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-The senate
commenced using it's 18th sitting of
the present session at 10 o'clock this
morning, no adjournment having oc-
Cured since week ago today. The
legislative day of Tuesday, Oct. II,
still continues.
Senator Stewart (Rep, New } gave
notice of an amendment which he in
tended to offer to the repeal bill, pro-
posing a conference to be held at
Washington within nine months be-
tween delegates OF the United States,
Mexico, Central and South America,
Hayti and San Domingo for the adop-
tion of common silver coin to be legal
tender in all commercial transactions
between citizens of the countries rep
resented.
Consideration of the bill to repeal
the purchasing clause of the silver act
of 1890 was then resumed and Senator
Jones, (Rep. New, entered upon the
fourth installment of his argument in
opposition to the bill. Senator Jones
made an elaboration of the argument
ne was advancing when the senate
took recess Saturday evening that the
standard of the country could be
neither gold, silver nor any material
thing, but that whatever the stand .
ard might be it was quantltative. The
value of the unit depended upon the
number of units, and there could be
but single standard in currency and
that one of quantity.
At $40 Senator Teller announced
that his throat troubled him and
without concluding his speech yielded
the floor.
Senator Stewart New addressed
the senate in advocacy of the propos
ed amendment for Pan-American
conference, In the course of his speech
Senator Stewart was interrupted by
Senator Dolph who asked question:
81 am glad the senator asked the ques-
tion," replied Senator Stewart joy
fully. "as that is the point l want to
elaborate on" This caused a ripple
of laughter and several senators sug-
gested to Senator Dolph to withdraw
the question. "You can not withdraw
it." said Senator Stewart amid laugh.
ter, and as he proceeded to answer the
question Senator Dolph disappeared
from the chamber.
At 5 o'clock Senator Stewart, with
out concluding his speech. yielded and
the senate took a recess, until 1890
tomorrow morning.
HOUSE.
4 joint resolution for printing copies
of hearings before the committee on
ways and means of the house was
agreed to with an amendment making
the number 1000 to be divided equally
between the senate and house.
The debate on the bankruptcy bill
began today in the house. There was
great deal of determined opposition
to the measure, led by some of the
ablest lawyers in the house like
Messrs. Culberson, Tex Stone, Pa.),
and Boatner, Na.) Mr. Oates who has
charge of the measure, opened the de
bate in advocacy of it.
Mr.. Stone, (Pa.), led the opposition
to the bill in strong and carefully
prepared speech. ,u
Mr.. Sibley, (Pa.), opposed the bill
as the incarnation of all evils At the
conclusion of Mr.. Sibley's speech the
house adjourned.

crowd suddenly drew a revolver and
fired into the throng on Place de
L'Opera, but fortunately hurt no one.
He was promptly seized and handed
over to the police. He gave his name
as Willis and said he had become
sick at seeing huge sums squandereo
while thousands of Frenchmen in
Paris alone were suffering for want of
a loaf of bread. He wished to protest
against such an outrage and thought
the best way was to attract atten-
ton to this Wilful waste of money.

of the unusual expenses attaching to
such business. Now that has been
obviated and the members of congress
from the West have been asked to

ELECTORAL MESSENGERS.
Mr.. Mercer of Nebraska has intro
duced bill providing for delivery of
certificates to electors at presidential
elections by express and mail instead
of special messengers as at preseut.
This will save several thousand dollars

MEXICAN FRONTIER.
Brigadier General Frank Wheaton
of the department of Texas, reports
that from July to December, 1899, the
troops on the Rio Grande were kept
constantly scouting through the coun-
try. He says the number of troops
along the Mexican frontier is made
quate. He regrets that under our
laws more severe punishment cannot
be given leaders OF such an unlawful
raid and brutal massacre as that of
December last.

GLOOMY FOR COMPROMISE.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-Those who
were expecting to see the Democratic
compromise bill introduced in the SEN
ate this morning and speedily passed
through that body were disappointed.
The opinion is now very general
among senators who will discuss the
matter at all that the compromise
bill. over which the senators were so
sanguine Saturday, will never be in
troduced in the senate. The reason
for the change in the situation is found
in the fact that the compromlsers
have been unable to get suf11clent
pledges to guarantee the passage, OF
the bill if it be introduced. and tney
have said from the beginning that
they would bring in no bill unless It's
passage could be assured. Statements
differ as to the exact numper
Democratic senators who have slgneo
the agreement, bnt the best authority
obtainable places the number at 80 or
40, less than a majority. There does
not seem to be much chance OF secur-
ing a quorum. 1t can be definitely
stated that the members of the steer
inc committee have made individual
appeals to a great many Republican
senators but have been refused alike
bv repeal and silver senators.
