Mr. Harter Introduces u Free Coinage Meas
ure That VIII Not Please Silv=rites.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 2-Mr. Harter, of
Ohio. introduced in the House to-day bill
to provide for the free coinage of silver
and gold at the present ratio and upon
equal terms. lt provides that after It's
passage the purchase of silver bullion by
the government shall cease, and that the
minis shall be opened to the coinage of
both metals upon the same terms as ex-
listed prior to 1878. provided, however that
all silver and gold coined hereafter. for the
account of owners shall not have any
legal-tender function, and instead of be-
ing stamped lone dollar five dollars
etc. shall be stamped ten dimes" fifty
dimes" etc. Nothing In this act Is to be
construed as affecting the leRal-tender
function of the gold and silver already
coined or which may hereafter be coined
upon the act of the United States. All
laws in conflict with this act are repealed
Discussing this measure, Mr. Harter said
this afternoon:
My bill has several merits IL will keep all
the money We have now IN circulation. II more
f. needed, IL Will make all the free silver and
gold I'm the world tributary TO our open mints. It
will put the owners OF silver and gold upon an
absolute equality. It will automatically secure
and maintain the correct market Vaine OF coined
silver aud gold. which has been the real object OF
every honest coinage law in the world. IL will,

BENCHES OR DESK SEATS?

Plans Suggested for Accommodating Menu
beers of the Lower House
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-Speaker Crisp has
in his private drawer In the rules commit
tee room q number of plans outlining on
paper suggested changes in the appearance
Of the hall of the House of Representatives.
The birth of these plans is due TO the neces-
sity OF providing some means for the accom-
mediation Of the twentv-three additional
members of the House who. under the ap-
portiopment act of the last Congress- will
be entitled to seats in the FIfty-third Con-
gress. Ex.Speaker keed and Bourke Cock
ran, of New York, are the fathers of the
most radical of all the plans. They are be-
levers in the system of seating mem bers
ON benches, as Is done in the English Par
lament. and of removing tine desks DOW in
the House of Representatives. Under their
plan the hall of the House would be not
more than half its present size, and in the
space thus left would be provided
reception rooms. committee rooms and
writing rooms where members. when the
debates grow prosy, could retire and at
tend TO their correspondence. The new ar
rangement would be great benefit 10 the
weak-voiced mem bers, who find that they
cannot make themselves heard IN the I'M

CRANKY "HAYSEEDS."

Two Alleged Farmers Who Have Radical
Views the Silver Question
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The closing days
session of the Bimetallic League was de-
voted almost entirely to oratory. Mr.. T. H.
Tibbles, farmer of Nebraska, introduced
himself as IAN Old hayseed," and startled
his hearers by telling them that they had
been talking here for two or three days,
but had said nothing new. He said that
the farmers had been advised lately to
keep out of politics. but their answer was.
You go to Old Harry. We've tried that
before. and nothing came of it. Henceforth
we propose to vote as we think, and in our
own interests.p
Mr. /. f. Dean, of Now York, another
farmer. said he differed with his friend
from Nebraska in that he had both heard
and learned nothing at the present conven-
tion. He said that never before in the his
tory of the country had there been a gfeat-
er desire to hear great questions dis
cussed affecting their welfare, yet they
had all the Vaccinations of the devil and
the crushing grasp OF the moneyed classes
to contend against. He referred to Presl-
dent Harrison as this ex perlment, ""this
thing" and said IL had taken the price of
nearly seven hundred thousand bushels of
wheat to pay his salary. He contrasted
the situation of many of the farmers of
this country who were compelled to
sustain themselves and their families
on Sl6S a year with that Of the mem bers
of New YOrk's -Four Hundred" whose
average yearly income was S1S9,00O. lie
urged the convention to be unseltsh not
to confne itself to one idea alone. but to be
broad enough to take in all who seek to
better thor condition. The speech was
loudly applauded.
A resolution was unanimously adopted
providing for the appointment OF COM
mlttee TO invite tue cooperation of every
labor and industrial organization in the
United states, and To invite such organiZa-
tons to send delegates to the future meet
ings of the league. General Warner was
reelected president for the ensuing year.
The time and place for holding the next an
nual meeting was left to the discretion of
the executive committee. The league then
adjourned sine die.
