WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S.-The voice of
the east was heard for the first time in
the house today. 1t was in favor of
free coinage of silver. The speaker
was Jos. @. Slbley, new member from
Pennsylvania. and his speech was the
sensation of the day Sibley is the
only member from the Keystone state
who q opposed to placing the United
States upon a single gold standard, and
VINO Is firm advocate of bIme allism
On the other sideof the question there
appeared another champion, Everett, of
Massachusetts,, who succeeds Lodge,
Haines, of New York, and English. of
New Jersey, both democrats, who spoke
In favor of repeating the silver purchas-
ing clause, and Jerry Simpson spoke
against 1t. Debate Was suspended in
order 70 allow Gatherings to report from
the committee on rules a reso. ution
authorizing the speaker TO appoint
| various committees of the house. No
additional committees are provided for,
out increase IN membership is made in
some important committees. The
resolution was adopted and the silver
debate resumed. Before Simpson con-
cluded his remarks the house took a
recess until 8 this evening, which ses-
sion will be devoted to debate on the
silver bill.
Sibiey caused some laughter by the
manner in which he paid his respects to
the New York Reform club, bankers and
"goldbugs-" Since he (Sibley) had

II becomes apparent 80 debate in the
house progresses that the test Of
strength between the silver and anti
silver forces will be shown Ol th3 SUITS
tltute for free coinage at the ratio six
teen 10 one instead of twenty To one.
Ii has been pular impression among
an,i-siver men that the free silver
leaders were cOunssliug their followers
to mass their strength on the substitute
OF sixteen to one and many Of them will
decline To vote 1T hi her ratio on q
ground that il would be a degradation
of the vhite metal as money. The
standard silver men admit now that the
repeal vote will pass the house by a
large ma jority because of the peculiar

hope that the senats will return the bill

That the opponents Of Home Rule for Ireland
should endesvor to use all possible parliament
airy means to defeat the Gladstonisn project
10 not strange. but the slightly yelled cold
bloodedness that calculates on the breaking
down Of Gladstone's health is little less than
savagery. Yesterday the great liberal leader
sprained an ankle. but the consequent expressions
ofsympathy did not come either from the conser-
natives or the hberal-unionists. They have done
everything in their power to worry and weary the
premier. At one time-when Lord Salisbury
stood at their head-they were determined to
do no more than vote against the measure, but
since the ascendancy Of Joseph Chamberlain
every available obstruction has been used. Dis
cussing this change of method, the New
York Sun says that Chamberlain
asserted, land events have shown su-1e founda-
ton for the prediction, that the English rad
icals and Irish nationalists could not stand the
tension Of years debate. but who can doubt
that, in his heart, he also cherished the un-
worthy calculation that the aged prime minis
ter might not outlive the twslvemonth. Let
those who imigine that English gentlemen are
above shaping their conduct By such sinister
expectations recall the storm Of excavation
with which Mr.. Gladstone was received on the
opening Of the Imperial Institute" But the
ill-natured and illogical opposition has not
awaited, and with the adoption Of the closure
resolution comes a reasonable certainty that the
