arrangements for the purchase OF all the
gold mines and interests IN the beanee

These mines are located about seyenty-iivs
miles north of the city OF Quebec, and are
KNOWN as the Gilbert River gold mines.
Mining Expert Dsight Crittenden is max
inc an examination of the mines in the
Reance district, and has already made one
report. in which he says he has found q
large number of gold d-bearing quartz veins.
Any report made by Critteaden.
vino is a practical miner, regarding the
mines, IL is said. Is beyond dispute. The
very tact that he is making the examina-
ton has satisfied Wall street that pur-
chase by the Haggin syndicate has been
practically settled apon. One group Of
mines iu this district IS owned by q num-
Der Of Boston and Portland merchants.
but it Is reported that arrangements have
been made for the transfer Of this prop
erty 20 Haggin and his associates. The
value of ali the mines is up in the mill
ions. Mining men here are much inter-
ested IN the outcome Of the deal. as the
same syndicate 70 reported To have recently
secured some Of the richest mines in
Chile in return for a cash advance made at

WAsHTseTos CRY. Aug. 30-The silver
debate in the senate is TO be made test of
physical endurance. This, at least, is the
programme which the senators from the
silver states announced. Teller of Colo
rado says he has brought his winter
clothes with him and will wear them be-
fore unconditional repeal of the silver bill
Is passed. But the senators from the silver
states seem TO stand alone in this deter
mination. Their opponents say they viii
not be aided To any great extent by the
free coinage Democrats. Most Of them, il
~ believed agree with Hill that 20
fiiibnster on this question would be
to lower the character of the
senate and diminish public respect for its
deliberations. Threats analogous to those
ascribed to the silver men. saw the anti
siiverites, have been heard before in the
senate on other burning public questions.
but somehow, after two or three weeks
talk and continuous all-night sessions,
compromises have been reached and an
agreement entered into for a vote to be
taken at fixed time. Little doubt is en-
tertained by the gold standard men that
this will be the result in this instance.
Should the debate be unreasonably pro-
ionged the contest may DO temporarily
transferred from the silver question TO an
amendment or the senate rules to permit
cioture.
The managers of the anti-silver cam
paign in the house are sure the senate will
pass the Voorhees, bill as a substitute for
the Wilson bill. which passed the house.
When the Voorhees, bill comes over from
the senate IL would naturally be referred
to the committee on coinage, but this
committee is bitterly hostile to
repeal, so il will not be sent
there il it can be avoided. The gold stan
dard men think they have found means
to evade this under the new rules. The
bill. when received. does not require con-
sideration in-cemmittee Of the whole. in
volving no appropriation. 1t is expected
a motion will be made to concur in the
senate Amendment and il is expected the
bill will be quickly passed.
Hon. w. l.. Wilson. author of the repeal
bill in the house. received the following
telegram from the president on its passage
by the house: Please accept for yourself
and associates in the achievement my
hearty congratulations and sincere
thanks"
