WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct 12.-The
weary struggle in the senate goes on and
tonight little progress seems to have
been made towards settlement. The
silver men still have the upper hand
and control the situation. The first in
timation of weakening Ct the repeal
forces was the decision OF Mr.. Voor-
hees to move for recess tonight from
10 p. m. tonight to IL q. IN. lie reck-
oned, however without the silver men,
who announced that they would not
yield the floor to Mr.. Voorhees, to make
the motion, and thus he was obliged to
abandon his plan. Many stories OF
compromise were in the air tonight,
but the unqualified statement OF both
sides is that the fight now in progress
must be decided before any compromise
can be broached with success.
Secretary Carlisle was again at the
capitol, IN consultation with Demo
cratic senators, in order to keep himself
we'll informed on the situation. The
hours dragged along until, at $3.50
o'clock, when Mr.. Voorhees,, chatting
under the continued roll calls the silver
men were forcing to hold their tired ad-
yersaries on the rack, petulantly aros 9
and demanded to know OF MIR. Frye, oil
Maine, who was in the chair. to what
extent the privilege OF calling for q
quorum could be abused.

The scene was brilliant one. The
setting for the fierce struggle in pro-
gress on the floor in the dazzling glare
OF the artificial lights was one to i'm
press the mind and fascinate the eye.
The galleries were banked to the doors.
In the reserved galleries were many la
dies, their bright dresses adding color to
the scene. The press gallery overhang-
ing the vice Presidents chair was crowd
cd with busy correspondents scratching
away with persistency.
Below on the floor was the wreck OF
great parliamentary battle, then
thirty-two hours old. The venerable
Senator Stewart, looking like patri-
arch, with his long white beard, was
grinding monotonously away while the
haggard faces around him betokened
the long strain to which the attempt to
force the silver men to yield by test
OF brute strength had subjected the
senate.
Mr.. Cullum sat listlessly in his seat.
Behind him Mr.. Hoar, of Massachusetts,,
was pegging away at some correspond
cnce. Mr.. Turpie and Mr.. Bate were
talking YEARLY, and Mr.. Lodge, the
student senator from Massachusetts,,
tall, erect and undaunted, stood aimless-
" in the aisle. In the rear of the cham
Der were representatives from the other
house, conspicuous among whom was
"SilYer Dollar" Bland, who was talking
earnestly to Mr.. Teller. Over in one
corner Mr.. German was the center OF an
interested group, composed OF Messrs;:
Hill and Murphy, OF New York, and
Mr. Faulkner, OF West Virginia.
THE sENATE's HELPLEssNEss.
No more perfect demonstration OF the
helplessness OF the senate under the
present system OF rules has been given
than by the events that followed Mr..
Voorhees, inquiry. "Mr. President,
my inquiry" said Mr.. Voorhees, with
head erect and defiant, "is whether
there is any limit OF restraint on the
rule permitting senators to make the
point Of no quorum2" :. j,
In the terms of the rules" replied
Mr.. Frye, who was presiding, there is
no limitation, and the chair knows oil
NO power in the presiding officer to
place a limitation"
Mr.. Voorhees, sank back in his seat
angry, but with no further word OF pro-
test. The roll call brought forty.four
unwilling victims into the chamber.
As sUon as the announcement was
made Mr.. Quay, of Pennsylvania, got to
his feetan suggested the absence OF
quorum. He did it, hesaid, because the
decision Of the chair put it absolutely
in the power OF any one senator to block
legislation, for as rapidly as rs compu-
ta,ion was made a senator could suggest
the absence Of quorum and the roll
would have to be called.
no WONDER THEY "LARFED."
"The senate OF the United States"

ity that caused the galleries to litter,

a bill to grant TO others than the state
normal school the power to issue life
diplomas and teachers certificates. It
was about the loosest constructed thing
that has yet found it's way into the SEN
ate, and il, as it has been said, it was
drafted by college president, it is high
evidence that no such power should be
granted to such institutions without very
close limitations and state supervision.

The week has produced an abundant
crop Of resolutions; some valuable and
appropriate, some having nothing in
them but politics. The joint resolution

THE SENATE.

The past weeks senate proceedings are
Of q regular, quiet kind, which means
that the senate is getting down to the
working point. Many important bills
have been introduced and are in the
hands of the committees, of which few
are mentioned:
Senate bill No. LAT, by Senator Leedy,
relating to the canvsssing Of votes for
members of the legislature. II possible
something ought to be done to prevent
the fraud perpetrated by the canvassing
board this year from being repeated.
Another very important bill was the
one introduced by Senator Dennison au
thorizing a state loan commission with
power to grant loans Such a commits
sion, it is claimed, would put an end to
the cut-throat loan agent, and give loans
at 8 per cent, and at the same time es
tsblish forever the credit OF the state

but also those who had made voluntary
relinquishment, could enter lands in the
strip. But it was only resolution.
When the house resolutions on rail I
road safety appliances, Cherokee strip
and the election Of United States sena-
tors by popular vote came up, the rs-
publicans asked to be excused from
voting.
The senate voted on United States
senator Tuesday, but there was no ex-
element The republicans voted sclidly
for j. W. Ady, and the Populist vote was
divided on half dozen candidates. Even
the democrats did not vote together,
O'Bryan voting for B. p Waggener and
billiard for McCleverty. But when the
vote came on Wednesday every Populist
save one and every democrat voted for
John Martin for senator.
The republican members looked sick
and acted mad from the moment they
heard the caucus had determined on John
Martin. Thursday afternoon the repub-
lican senators asked to be excused to at
tend joint session to elect a United
States senator. The request was refused,
but the senate adjourned 80 they could
60 on with their ohild's play. The joint
session only resoluted and adjourned
without day, being unable to obtain a
quorum. When the time came to elect
state printer Friday the republicans had
no more respect for their fallen leader,
James G. Blaine, than to make use OF
his name in an effort to adjourn andp
vent the election Of printer. The POpu-
lists after the election appointed
committee to draft resolutions on the
death Of James G.! Blaine and then ad-
journed out Of respect till Monday.

sake of the commission. The bill was
carefully drawn, and although the re-
publican attorneys all grinned when it
was read by title, they listened with
great interest when it was read in full.
A bill was introduced by Senator Lam
dis relating to the fees Of the clerk Of
the supreme court, which for years have
been enormous. Also bill to establish
another state normal school.
Senator Householder brought In bill
to define the boundaries Of judicial dis
tricts.
Senator Rodgers introduced (by re-
qusst) bill to represent the state Of
Kansas at the Worlds Columbian Expo
sition and to pay the expenses already
incurred in the interest Of the state.
Senator Jumper introduced bill grap-
ping with freight and passenger rates,
determinations and passes; and another
bill to provide q state board OF railroad
commissioners (SupervisorsJto to be chosen
by ballot.

THE LEGISLATURE.
THE HOUSE.

A great deal Of the time during the
past week has been devoted to the cleo
tion of a United States senator and coun-
teractingthe efforts of the obstructionists
who work under the leadership Of Mr..
Douglass and Senator Baker. The Incl
dents of the week have in themselves been
a very forcible argument in favor Of the
people electing their senators by direct
vote.
The Populists have got to business as
we'll as they could under the circum-
stances, and have number OF good bills
under way. They obstinately refuse to
comply with the wishes of the republi-
cans by passing an appropriation bill so
that the court may pass upon the valid
ity Of it. They prefer to go ahead with
other business and leave appropriations
till later in the session. Monday Speaker
Dunsmore served official notice on Mr..
Douglass to vRcate the speakers stand
and cease obstructing the business OF
the house. No answer has yet been
made. The following house committees
have been appointed:
Judiciary-G. L. Douglass, Double
day, Chambers, Mckinney, Hopkins,
Cubbison, Dougherty, Everley, Green,
Ryan, Kenton, Wagner, Semple, Warner,
Hoch.
Assessment and taxation - Watson,

THE JOINT SESSIONS.

On Tuesday, January "a, pursuant to
resolutions previously passed in both
houses, joint session convened in rep
resentative hall for the purpose Of voting
for United States senator. As was ex-
pected, when the roll was called the re-
publicsns failed to answer to their
names, but the Populsts and five demo-
Gratis voted right along. Notwithstand,
ing that in caucus the night before
Martin had more votes than any other,
the figures on the first joint ballot
stood as follows;

Experts Testify as to the Value
of Property to BE Condemned.
The Ridgewood park matter came up
before the board of public works yester-
day. Walter Holcombe, representing
the property owners opposed to the
park, called as witnesses William Can
by. c. f. Smith, Valentine aRothsrhild,
Edward SimontOn and j. III. Davidson,
who gave testimony as to the value of
the property TO be taken for the park
All of the gentlemen, with the eXcep-
ton of Davidson. placed the value of the
1919 acres at s., 800 per acre. MIR. David
son thought this figure trifle high, and
was of the opinion that $1,000 per acre
was about the proper value. 1t was no.
ticeable yesterday during the hearing
that all of the witnesses spoke of the
property as acre property, when it has
been plated into lots for many years.
According TO the testimony given yes
terday the proposed park site would be
worth only $4,000, while the figures de-
termiDed on by the board OF public
works were S62 900. The hearing was
adjourned to Monday afternoon in order
to allow the attorney for the owners of
the land to bring in other testimony in
rebuttaI.
The pay roll of the street and sewer
force for the first half of August,
amounting to S4,112.13, was approved

The major portion of the business that
was transacted by the state board of
regents of the university at the meeting
yesterday related to the medical col

in the administration of affairs there
were effected. There were present
Regents Clark, Owen, Mahoney. Lig-

The architects that We're elected at
the last previous meeting of the board
presented the plans for the proposed
new library and assembly hall at the
state university, and they were favora-
bly, Lassed upon. 1t was finally decided
to proceed with the construction of the
building at once, and it was arranged
that notifications in the plans can be
made at the instance of the building
committee, and with the advice of the
architects. A resolution was adopted
combining the cost of the structure to
s155,0O0, including the architects fees
and the supervision Of the work.
DR.. Lugger, of the school of agri
culture, it will be recalled, recently
published book Oh insects. embodying
his experiments and researches through
out the West, and requisition for $l2O
was made to cover the cost of printing
and binding the work.
The matter of the appointment of

was referred to the building committee
