WASHINGTON. Oct. 3O-By vote Of 43 to 81
the Senate at 7:25 this evening pa ssed the bill
providing for the unconditional repeal of ths
| purchasing clause OF tho Sherman act OF 1890.
As adopted by the Senate the bill, originally
introduced in the House OF Representatives by
Mr.. Wilson OF West Virginia on Aug. II. con-
tanned the amendment reported by the Senats
Finance Committee. consisting OF n section
mctalisn. This section will not change
or amend the law in any respect. and
is equivalent only to plank In q
convention platform. 1t means nothing but
It's adoption serves to link the name OF soma
tor Voorhees, with that OF Representative Will
son parent OF the Repeal bill. The adop.
ton OF the Voorhees, substitute necessitates
the return OF the bill to tho House OF Repre-
sentatves. whore tho amendment must DO
concurred in before the bill can go to the
President for his signature. 1t ia probable
that under the rules OF the House the bill can
not be disposed Of there until Wednesday. The
Speaker cannot lay q measure before that
body on the same day that it is received.
except by unanimous consent. II there 10 q
single objection therefore, the unconditional
repeal bill must lie upon the Speakers table
tomorrow. A determined effort will be made.
however. to get unanimous consent for it's
consideration and immediate concurrence in
the Senate amendment II this attempt is
successful. President Cleveland may have the
pleasure OF signing the repeal bill before he
leaves the White House tomorrow evening for
his country homo. There is some fear that
the bill will not have smooth sailing In the
House. and that there will be serious obiec-,.
ton to concurrence In the Voorhees, suhsfi-
tuts. which is thought by many members 70
be wholly unnecessary.
The long aud tedious hght over the silver
question having at last been brought to
close. members OF both Houses are anxious
for an adjournment OF a few weeks before be-
ginning the work OF the regular session. It
is. therefore. probable that before the end Of
the week Congress will adjourn until Deem
Der. This programme will be antagonized by
| the friends OF the so-called Geary bill to pro-
hibit the immigration OF Chinese. and they
are hopeful that 1t will be passed within the
next few days. Senator Hoar's announcement
In the Senate to-day. however. that the measure
is one OF such grave importance as to require
deliberate and careful CONSIDERATION leaos 10
the belief that 1t will not be disposed OF dur
ing the life OF this extraordinary session.
The proceedings OF the Senate to- day formed
fitting climax to the Incidents OF the twelve
weeks discussion OF the financial question.
There was series OF short. spicy. entertain
