SCHEME OF PROTECTIoNIsrs.

Proposed Alliance of Manufacturers and
siiverites Of the West.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S-The speech Of
Senator Cameron in favor of the free COIN
age of silver continues to attract attention
unusual attitude for Republican Senator
from an Eastern State like Pennsylvania
to take. but because of the events that are
crowding the heels of the speech in Penn
sylvania. At the meeting of the Republic
an League at Reading. yesterday. on at
tempt to censure Senator Cameron for his
course was defeated by q two-thirds ma
jority. An explanation of this failure to
censure Senator Cameron. and. indeed, of
the attitude he has taken. is fur.
nished bv the intelligence that has reached
here that o movement is on foot among
the protected manufacturers of Pennsylva-
MIA to effect q com mbination between the
protected interests and the free silver men.
which shall have for Its aim the defeat of
the legislation looking to tariff reduction
and the qualification of the Vests demand
for free coinage under modified conditions.
Some of the members of the Manufactur-
ers Club, of Philadelphia. led by James
DObson. the big woOlen manufacturer. and
Wharton Barker, the banker. are engaged
in circulating petition to the Senate.
looking to q consolidation of the inter-
eats of tho protectiOnists and the
free slverites. Many signatures are
being procured. The scheme is TO defeat
free coinage of silver upon payment by the
owner OF seignorage absorbing three
fourths of the difference in the market
price (London) of bullion and Its coined
value; second. the prohibition of foreign
silver for coinage purpose. except at u
seignorage that will absorb all tue differ
ence between the market price and the
mint value. and. third. an inter-
national monetary conference. in
cluding all the nations OF the
countries. for the purpose of arriving at
an international agreement. The claim Is
sci mp that the interests of silver and pro-
lection are identical. The plan mapped
out by the Pennsylvania manufacturers. it
will be observed. follows closely the idea
Of Senator Cameron's speech. except that
the former provides against an influx of
foreign silver to the mints by ab-
sorbing all the difference between
the market and the coined value

scheme is to align the interests of silver
and protection. and by this means prevent

but its successful operation would mean
the breaking down of party lines. perhaps,
and an entire readustment of party poll

Speech-Peffer Talks Against Re-

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2s-There is good
reason for believing that the intention OF
the repeal Senators of making an attempt
on next Monday 10 force night sessions of
the Senate. which was so strongly hin!ed
ct yesterday. has been abandoned. or that
the day will be postponed until later in
week. Thore 10 no doubt that an effort
was made on both sides of the chamber to
secure an agreement looking to night ses-
sions and that Monday was the day the
Senators having the matter in hand named
as tho time for inaugurating the move
ment. 1t wOuld appear. however. from the
Developments to-day, that they were not
successful in securing the acquiescence in
the programme which they had ex-
pected. The Senators as rule hesl-
tate to take this extreme step. out of
consideration for their own comfort as
we'll as because of their wish not to appear
harsh towards the minority. The fact has
also been ascertained that several of the
repeal Senators would be absent from tho
city during the week, and that on this ao-
count the repeal advocates will not be so
strong next week as ordinarily. Senator
Voorhees,. when asked about the pro-
gramme, refused to express himself at all.
He generally talks very freely upon ques-
tions concerning which he thinks the pub.
lilo has q right to information. and his si-
lsnce in the present instance would indi-
cate that the programme for night sessions
has not yet been perfected.
There was more talk Of compromise
about the Senate to-day than has been
heard for q week. but it did not take any
definite form. A prominent Repu blican
Senator. who has not so fer taken any part
in the present debate. was engaged during
the greater part of the day in trying to get
Senators on both sides of the question to
agree to proposition for the purchase and
coinage of SO. .O00. 900 of silver per month for
the next three years. but met with many
obstacles. The especial supporters of the
President asserted that he wOuid ac-
ceIS no amendment whatever, and
the silver Senators made the
objection that to place the limit OF pur-
chase at q time within MIR. Cleveland's ad-
ministration would be to simply postpone
the blow, and 1t might almost as well fall
now. Senator Faulkner was also engaged

Many Private War Claims to Be Reported

WASHINGTON, Sept 2S.-"Prlvate war

a morning newspaper. "a day does not
pass that dozens of bills are not introduced

troduced bills providing for the payment of
$500, 600 to the city of Frederick. $1,000 to

PARIS. Jan. 11.-There was strong
feeling in the chamber of deputies as
well as among the general public that
NJ. Rihot had not yet sufficiently purg-
ed the ministry of those who have been
under suspicion in connection with the
Panama scandal. In reference to the
overwhelming public demand Tor a
further reconstruction of the ministry,
NJ. Rihot has had lengthy converse
ton with Admiral Gervais, in regard
to accepting the ministry OF Marine anu
of the Colonies, in place of NJ. Burdau.
The appointment OF Admiral Geryais
would be highly popular and it is sug-
gested that it would tend to counter
act any feeling of distrust on the part
of the Car toward the Republic. The
announcement that General Saussier
was to remain on the active list as mil
itary governor of Paris is construed as
an indication that the government
means to be prepared for any emergen-
cy. Gen. Saussier stands ready to do
soldiers duty in the support OF ex-
isting authority, and would crush dis
order at any cost.
