)PREvENT FILIBUSTERING.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 80, 1S93.-rhe silver
debate in the Senate Is to be made o test
of physical endurance. This. at least,
is the programme which the Senators
from the silver States Mr..
Teller of Colorado saws he has brou CHI
his winter clothes with him. and will
wear them before unconditional repeal
shall pass. The Senator's from the silver
States stand alone in this determination.
They will NOT be aided TO any great ex-
tent by the free coinsgs Democrats, un-
less Mr.. Morgan of Alabama should take
q hand. In that event Mr.. Morgan would
rrove a powerful allv, for his resistless
flow of talk could he relied upon ia
last for many days. But most OF the free
COINAGE Democrats, IL y believed, a gree
with Mr.. Hill that to fillibuster on { his
question would he to lower the charas ter
OF the Senate and dimintsh public re-
spect for its deliberations.
Threats analogous to those ascri bad to
the silver men have besn hea I'd be fore in
the Semitic on other burning public uues-
weeks Of talk and at most two con thu.
ous all night sessions a compounds has
been reached and an agreement entered
iuto for q vote to be taken at = fixed time.
Little doubt is entertained that tn is will
be the result In this Instance.
Should the debate be uure asouably
prolonged. the contest may b Q temper
arily transferred from the stl YER ques-
ion to the amendment of the Senate
rules, 80 as to permit OF clot ure. With
the retirementof Mr.. Edmuuds from the
Senate the most Influential 0ponent OF
a change Of rules Was withdra wn. Mr..
Sherman and other prominent Senators
xzh npn uDPaMd with fhn Warm ant CAno-
tor on this point, have siace changed
their views. and it would not require
much provocation to induce tue Senate
10 take up In dead earnest Q proposition
to impose some other limitation beside
Senatorial courtesy on endless aud
proftless debate.
RULES IN Il HOUSE.
The tone of bitterness infused in the
debate in the House yesterday on the
adoption OF the ruler, seems TO render ts
doubtful whether the new code can be
adopted today, as there are many amend
ments TO be offered. AS soon as the rules
that are to yer procaedtngs are agreed
upon, Introduction OF bills will be in
order. It will then not take long for the
House hopper" to be flied quite IS full
OF bills as the Senate's, inasmuch as by
the rules, the bills have not to be offered
In open House, but can be handed to the
Speaker for references TO the proper
commiGteeS, or In cases OF private bllls
and river and harbor bills, can be
dropped into the petition box. Then
with the committee mills in full grinding
and q grisr of bills to work no, it will be
hard to Keep off general legislatio n or to
sustain the movement for an early
ADJOURNMENT. Especially 80. as the
House will have Co await the S enate's
action on the silver question.
