HAVE NOT SURRENDERED.
No Signs Of Abandoning the Silver Fight
at the White House.
The Cabinet Today Discusses the
SftuatfOn-A Black Eye, but Not
u ROut-HOping Still.

1t Is regarded as . safe assumption that
the financial situation was the principal
subject Of discussion at today's meeting
OF the cabinet. 1t Is said that. although the
failure to force the Senate TO a vote on the
silver repeal bill il a great disappointment
to the administration. the fight has not
been abandoned by any manner of means.
The action Of the repeal Senators in giving
up the contest Of endurance was not, 1t is
contended In administration circles, a sur
render Of the point at issue, but a simple
acknowledgment that the Senate was not
yet prepared to act on the question The
friends Of the administration do not &C
knowledge defeat and some Of them assert
that the President will yet gain his point
In the words Of one Of them: Repeal has
got a black eye. but it is not beaten"
The cabinet meeting WAS attended by all
the members except the Postmaster General,
who Is not in the city. They all wore a
serious expression as they entered the cabi-
net chamber. and there was an absence OF
the usual POPULARITY in their greetings. This
state Of affairs may have been due TO the
depressing effects of the rain storm.
The President arrived at the White House
~ 10 30 O'Clock. He drove I'm from his coun-
try home In n heavy shower Of rain. He
was alone. There was nothing unusual i'm

The cabinet met today at II o'clock and
the President occupied the hah hour he
was at the White House before that hour
in the consideration of routine official bust
ness. 1t was expected that some Of the
administration Senators would can this
morning to confer with the President as
to the situation. but none Of them put in
an appearance. In fact. the President saw
no visitors at all this morning, outside Of
the members of his cabinet.
