COMPROMISE TALK.

The President Reported I'd BE willing to
Make Concessions to silver Men.
WAsHINGToN. Sept. 19.-There is strong
talk Of compromise On the silver question
In the Senate, tonight, and the indications
point to the possibility of an early vote in
rhat body. This talk IS based upon re-
ported intima;ions given by the President
that he is willing TO accept a moderate
compromise in the nature of the con-
timed coinage. for q specified time.
of so much silver per month
until q specified amount is reached.
The President is represented as willing hat
silver shall 90 into the repeal bill as q
rider. but that it must be passed subse-
quent to the passage of the uncondlti onal
repeal bill. An assurance that he would
sign the supplementary bill might satisfy
some of the com promise advocates, but the
free-silver men. even though they were to
acquiesce. would probably insist ON the
compromise being incorporated in the orig
NAL bill. They would probably not agree
10 take any chances on n subsequent act.
This Is on the superstition that they would
agree at all. They naturally want the best
terms they can make for silver. and accept
anco of a compromise with them would be
In the face of certain defeat. On the other
hand. IL the President Is correctly repre-
sented. &c Is possible that he might not
agree TO coupling the compromise with the
repeal bill. There are. therefore. many
contingencies upon which an arrangement
TO let matters 60 to a vote depend.
The reported intimatIons from the White
House of "A Willingness to accept anything
at oil short of absolute and unconditional
repeal has revived the talk of an early
settlement of the battle in the Senate.
