Talking Against Time.

WASHINGTON, Sept. lit is stated
that thirty three senators have ar
ranged to speak on the silver ques-
ton and ten or a dozen may decide
to take hand before the conclusion
of the debate. Should this prove
true, it is more than probable that
snow will fly before the matter is
settled. George of Mississippi ex-
poets to speak two days, Jones OF Ne
vada and Daniel of Virginia, two
days each, and Morgan OF Alabama
and Stewart of Nevada ora day each.
Even if a compromise is ultimately
agreed upon, the final vote will not
be taken earlier than the first week
in October. The silver senators still
insist that vote cannot be reached
at all without the cloture rule. I'm
der the rules of the senate there is no
provision whatever for shutting off
debate, and it is probable that such
rules will not be adopted now.

CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.
Pugh and Teller Speak Against
Repeal.
TO AMEND THE GEARY ACT.
A Bill introduced Providing for Extend
ing the Time for Registration Three
MonthsA Vote on the Repeal Bill
Not in Sight Unless Cloture is Applied

WASHINGTON, Sept. 11.-Stewart
submitted a resolution or committee
report to inquire whether any senator
was interested as a stakeholder or
otherwise in any national bank. Hill
objected to it on the ground that it
was reflection on the senators. 1t
went over till tomorrow.
The repeal bill was taken up and
Pugh of Alabama spoke in opposition
to it.
Pugh said that if the Sherman law
was repealed to restore confidence
among the money lenders the lion of
discomfort among the toiling millions
would be awakened and his roar
would shake the continent. 1t was
the unalterable purpose of the oppon-
ents OF repeal to stand upon their
convictions OF public duty and fidelity
to their pledge to the people they re-
presented. He honored them with
confidence on this vital question until
their physical strength was ex-
hausted.
Teller followed Pugh, resuming his
speech begun Saturday, against re-
peal. He continued his argument to
show that the panic was not due to
the Sherman law. He said he had
been told when be asked certain gen.
tlemen when the panic would be over,
that the banks had called it on and
could not call it off. The panic was
worse from the time congress was
called together.
House introduced bill in the SEN
ate today amending the Geary Chi
nese exclusion act by extending the
time for registration three months
after its passage and repeating that
portion requiring that witnesses in
cases against the Chinese shall be
white. The bill continues in force the
first SIX sections OF the Geary act, un-
til a treaty shall be made with China
for regular Chinese emigration.
