ELEVEN DAYS DEBATE.
Important Action with Regard to Silver
Taken BY the House.

Iaken by the mousse
WASHINGTON, Aug u.-At the open
ing of to-day's session of the house Mr.
Wilson Of West Virginia introduced q
bill for the unconditional repeal of the
purchasing clause of the Sherman law.
Mr. Raynor of Maryland opened the de-
bate, favoring the passage of the bill.
Mr. Bland submitted a resolution to
carry out the conference agreement and
this resolution was adopted.
The conference, which was held this
morning, agreed that debate on the
purchasing clause be limited to eleven
days, to be followed by n general debate
on the bill for three days under the five
minute rule At the end of that time a
vote will be taken on the purchasing
clause, to be followed by voting on the
various silver amendments.
In the senate the outlook is not SO en-
couraging. They are awaiting devel-
opments in the house. 1t is thought,
however, that a vote will be reached
sooner than was anticipated.
The free coinage men offer this counter
proposition: That the bill outlined by the
free silver caucus shall be introduced by
the committee authorized to prepare it,
providing for n repeal, coupled with free
coinage; that any amendments desired may
be offered and that vote shall he taken at
the end Of three weeks
This was not acceptable to the antisilver
men, who insisted, it is said, upon a vote
first upon the proposition to unconditiou-
ally repeal the purchase clause. 1t was
impossible apparently for the committee
to come together. and after several sepa-
rate consultations and two joint meetings
adjournment was had until this morning.
The free coinage men were represented
in the Conferences by Representatives
Bland, Boatuer. Culbcrson, Bryan, Bal
ley, Oates and lane; the unconditional re
pealers by Cochran. Tracey. Harter, Ray.
