WASHINGTON. jan. h-Nothing seems moro
certain than that there will be no silver leeis-
lation hy the present Congress. even " the
Democrats could agree as to what ought to be
done. 1t 1, we'll known that the Republicans
have formally decided not to vote for any
change Of law during the present hdministra-
tion. There was n report Mt the Capitol to-day
that Mr.. Cleveland has informed several OF
those Democrats In Congress who come near
representing his views on financial ques-
lions. and who are anxious to have the
silver matter settled in some way as
speedily rs possible. that he will be
content to have the Bland act restored as q
compromise in consideration OF the repeal Of
tho Sherman act. How far he is using his in
f1uence to bring this about Is uncertain. but
those men in Congress who are Interesting
themselves in the matter are very hopeful OF
being able 10 bring about n compromise.
There is no direct authority for this statement
OF Mr.. Cleveland's views, but 1t does well
enough TO trade on by the advocates OF silver
legislation.
The very radical anti-silver men are Insist
ing that the hight must be made for the nbso-
luto suspension OF silver purchases. while the
radicals on the other side OF the question say
that they will not agree to tho repeal OF the
sherman act unless they can havo free coin

CHICAGO. Jan. 5.-The second stage Of the
rate reductions Of the Southern Pacific has do.
reloped into a transcontinenta rate war. The
Atchison to-day carried the reduced rates to
Chicago. bearing out its policy that no lower
rates should be made from California to the
Atlantic than from California to Chicago. It
served notice on the transcontinenta lines mt
tho New York dissolution meeting that 1t
would protect Chicago as against the sea-
board rates. The Southern Pacific mt that
tim. was threatening to, make the. re.
sons stand. The reductions OF tho
wine. bornx. beans. and brandy. The reduced
rates Of the Atchison to Chicago were quoted
at such n late hour tonight that com peting
lines conld take no action. Much III feeling
has hcen aroused nv the Southern Pacinc's re-
duction in advance Of the st. Paul meeting.
For n tim. there seemed to be a chance OF the
transcontinental lines getting together in st.
