TN THE SENATE.
Finance Committee Reports the yoor.
hees Bill as q Substitute For the
House Measure.
The Only Difference Is That the SEN.
ate Bill Declares In Favor Of
Parity.
Senator German Speaks Agasnst the
Substitute-He Wants No
Delay.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 80.-The senate
committee on finance decided to report
back to the senate the Wilson repeal
bill, with the recommendation that the
Voorhees, bill already on the senate
calendar, be substituted for it. The
committee also resolved to set aside the
national bank circulation bill which is
now unfinished business in the senate,
in favor of the Voorhees, bill and to
press the latter measure as rapidly as
the temper Of the senate will permit.
The difference between the house bill
and the Voorhees, bill is found in the
attachment to the latter ola paragraph
declaring that 1t is the policy of the
United States to use both gold and sill
yer as money metals, and to preserve
parity.
Chairman Voorhees, reported the
Voorhees, bill to the senate as substi-
tute for the house bill at 1916 p. m.
Mr.. Teller objected to immediate con-
sideration Of the repeal bill and it went
over.
The Stewart resolution, inquiring
into the condition Of the treasury, was
then taken up for consideration. The
resolution was referred to the finance
committee and Mr.. German addressed
the senate in advocacy of the uncon-
ditional repeal of the Sherman act. He
declared that he could not vote for any
measure that involved delay and that
he was therefore opposed to the substi-
tute reported.

Very Little Communication Between
the East and West.
CHICAGO, Aug. 80. "A general storm
in midwinter could scarcely have
wrought more damage to the telegraph
companies than did the gale of Monday
night. Business between the entire
distance of the Atlantic states and this
city is nearly paralyzed. The great
network of wires of the Western Union
company suffered to an alarming ex-
tent. In places east of Buffalo and
along the Baltimore and Ohio to Wash
ingtcn the ravages Of the storm are
responsible for
Wholesale Destruction Of Wires.
Line repairers fairly swarm over the
storm swept territory and the informa-
ton comes from the western side Of
this zone of destruction that their work
Is going to be the most difficult in years.
Poles are down in stretches of five miles
and the wires are snapped, bent and
lashed into useless tangles of inextrica-
BILE puzzles Occurring, as it has, when
the eyes of the West are most directed
upon the capital, and when the pulse of
trade has to stand still. because of the
absence Of electrical tingie, the work Of
the storm is more keenly felt.

THE EDWARDS PLAN.

The Banks at MayviIle, N. D., Propose
to Move Crops.
MAYvILLE, Aug. 3O.-After long con-
sidera ton Bankers Rosholt of the First
National bank and Edwards of the
Goose River bank of Mayville have put
into successful operation a plan that
will solve the moving of the crop prob
lem that is before the minds of the peo-
pie of the Northwest and will relieve
the currency famine in this vicinity.
The Edwards" plan as it is called here,
is as follows: The banks issue drafts
on their Minneapolis and ST. Paul hanks
payable to bearer, in small demo lima
tions of So, $40 and $50. The to-
gether with some silver, the vator
men pay the farmers in excha1 Q for
wheat. The farmers use these drafts
in paying their store bills, Irvine
notes, machine notes, and, in ,ct, the
drafts will pass current every here in
this country. The grain men ship the
wheat and sell 1t in the mark, below,
receiving drafts in payment. 'hese are
received by the banks here sent to
their correspondents below credit,
and thus, with but little II able and
no anxiety, the crop will be sold, the
farmers and merchants get their ac-
counts paid, the banks their notes paid,
and the great problem is at once solved.
The bonanza farmers are paying their
men under this plan, and it meets sat-
isfaction.

Horner resumed his conversation with
gentleman, during which the
stranger, who had followed Mason
from the bank, slipped around to the

CHARTER GRANTED.
New Road, Supposed to Be In tn
Canadian Pacific Interest.

Canadian Pacific Interest.
MADISON, Wis, Aug. SOW. r.
Chadsey of New York has filed with
the secretary of state articles Of in
corporation for the Chicago, Superior
and Pacific. Railway company, for
which he has received charter. This
is the old original Wisconsin Central
railroad chartered in 1853. upon which
nearly $1,000, 900 has been expended,
from the Illinois state line north
westerly In an air line to Superior. It
has been the long cherished hope Of the
people of Walworth, jefferson and
Columbia counties to secure the COM
pletion of this road, the towns Of Lake
Geneva, Elkhorn, Whitewater, Jeffer-
son, Lake Mills, Waterloo and Portage
having expended much money in striv-
ing to secure 1t. The Chicago and
Northern Pacific Air line in 1879, under
Jay Cooke, failed. A land grant was Sc
cured in behalf of the road on accounted
the Chicago, Portage and Superior
Railway company which, through the
alleged treachery Of the directors, was
sold to the Omaha company in 1882,
leaving the old road bed and the prop
erty of the old Central company in the
same condition as it stood when Mr..
Chadsey's father foreclosed the road in
September, 1868. There are 10 incor-
porators of the new company, most of
them living in the East. 1t is UNDER
stood that the incorporators are by no
means the promoters of the road, and
that its construction will be under
taken entirely by foreign syndicate
and that the intent ton is to connect
Duluth and Superior and Minneapolis
and st. Paul with the Wabash air line
to Detroit at Chicago. The move is
supposed to be in the interest Of the
Canadian lines, probably the Canadian
Pacific, which may soon have its line
from Vancouver to New York city via
Duluth and st. Paul and Minneapolis,
Chicago, Detroit and Buffalo.

Mantle and Allen Not Entitled to
Seats in the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-There was
an unusually small gathering Of spec
tators in the senate during the morn
ing, the vote in the house on the silver
bill having attracted the curious and
the sightseers to the south wing of the
Capitol. Notice was given by Mr..
Sherman that he would address the
senate next Wednesday on the silver
question and by Mr.. Wolcott (Rep.,
Colo.) for Thursday.
Senatorial Cases Settled.
Mr.. Vance's motion to lay on the
table Mr.. Manderson's motion to recon-
slider the vote by which the senate de-
cided last week that Mr.. Mantle was
not entitled to seat was the
first question considered. The vote was
taken and resulted yeas 81. nays ~. So
the motion to lay on the table was
agreed to. The vote was then taken on
the original resolution as amended and
it was agreed to, yeas 80, nays %. The
effect of the vote is a declaration that
Mr.. Mantle is not entitled to the seat.
A vote was then taken on the right of
John B. Allen to seat from the state
of Washington, claimed under similar
circumstances, and it was also decided
in the negative by exactly the same
vote, 80 to 20. No action was taken on
the third case from the state of Wyom-
ing, Mr.. Beckwith having resigned.

SIOUX CITY FINANCES.

Plan to Be Submitted to Creditors of
Union Loan and Trust Company.
Sioux CITY, Ia, Aug. 30.-Indica-
tons now are that Sioux City will
come out of its recent financial troubles
in few days with practically all the
institutions involved in the failures on
sound basis. The failures are said to
come from the assignment of the Union
Loan and Trust company, which had
been used as clearing house for other
institutions and the real damage was to
these institutions which were carried
down. John G. Coombs Of Boston, at
torney for a committee of creditors,
appeared to devise means of settlement
and has outlined a plan that will be
submitted to the committee in Chicago
Wednesday which will be accepted by
the creditors and is very favorably con-
sidered here.
