WAsuNeroN. ID. C., October "a
Cala and uutrou6led as q staEuant pool
was the Senate on the surface to-day,
but underneath angry passions were
raging.
Another compromise bubbIe-the
most promising and most fully blown Of
the seriss-has been pricked, and Sena-
tors on both sides Of the chamber were
mad about 90.
The wors, OF it was nc one could ex-
actly ,eu who was responsible for the
disastrous puneture, and accusations
were hurled by the Southern silver men
at the Western silver men, and by the
latter hurled back again; awhile each
side united Ia hurling them at the Ad-
ministration.
AS for the latter, it made no denial
nor concealment OF It's opposition TO the
compromise, any more than it has TO
all the previous compromises offered.
It's for the passage Of the Wilson
voorhees, bin straight; but more than
that this, as the President informed
Senators who called on him to-day, ii is
for an emphatic assertion Of the right
Of the majority OF the Senate TO govern
the proceedings Of that body.
1t wants right asserted in order that
the Wilson Voorhees, Dill may pass now,
and tariff and other Democratic legis-
lation later on, without danger that
they will have TO be modified to suit the
minority.
What brought direct and fual disas-
ter TO the compromise, which looked so
much like success Saturday and even
Yesterday, was she dissa6ec-IOn OF the
Western silver men with 20. These
Senators discussed the compromise very
thoroughly on sunday and came 20 the
,Nnclusion that 60 would be a political
mistake for them 50 accept it, or let 10
pass. They decided 10 would be better
for them, politically, 90 allow iumedi-
ate repeal % 20 through than % have
silver purchases continue 90 within a
month OF next Congressional election.
They 30 Informed the Southern silver
men, when they came 90 Jho senate this
morniur; aud che Southern Senators
were aghast at the prospect which. con
fronted them. But they took the
Westerners 90 the.I word, especially as
the Administration had again spoken
Cut against compromise, and for time
lt was the general understanding shat
the WIs0u-E0orlees bill would be-
passed before the eud Of the week, but
before nl-hta sudden about face was
executed by several Of the Southern
silver men, who declared that they
would not vote for unconditional repeal
no natter what comes; that they would
hibuster against it TO the bitter end.
But Notwithstanding these dec.ara-
tious, it is believed the Wusou-Voorhees
bil will pass 90 few days. 10 is not
likely the opposition 70 it can be got
into line again, and IL It is, clOture will
shut 10 of before it has gone very far.
Such is the uncertainty and chaotic
stste Of affairs iu the Senatorial ranks
tonight that iJ is worse than useless TO
attempt to predict the future or indi-
cate how the tang.~ will be cleared up.
Anything Is liable TO happen.
