WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-Senators of all
shades OF opinion now agree that the
night session experiment is necessary to
bring the senate to an agreement on the
financial question. Opinions differ
much as to the probable length OF the
continuous session, and as to what re-
suit it will lead.
The silver men are counting upon its
continuing for 48 hours. and are making
plans accordingly. They will make an
effort at O'Clock tomorrow afternoon to
secure an adjournment. but do not ex-
pect to succeed. After the adjournment
motion is voted down, some one OF the
silver advocates will take the floor and
speak until relieved by some other
senator of like views. The leaders on
the silver side say, 90 far as they can
control their forces, they will insist that
the majority shall main tain quorum.
1t 10 evident that the repeal men will
have to continuously be present in quite
large numbers to prevent an adjourn
ment. The majority of the senators ad-
NIT that compromise ia the most prob
able result of the night session expert
ment, but Senator Voorhees, and his
immediate followers say the bill will 20
through as reported.
A careful canvass of the senate shows
that if vote should be reached upon
the bill as it stands it would carry by q
majority of IL, and the vote would be az
follows, supposing all the senators to bo
present:
Ayes-Aldrich, Allison, Brice, Caffrey,
Camden, Carey, Chandler, Cullom,
Davis, Dixon, Dolph, Faulkner, Frye,
Gallinger, Gibson, Gordon. German,
Gray, Hale, Hawley, Higgins. Hill,
Hoar, Hunton, Lindsay, Lodge, McMil-
lin, MCPHERSON. Manderson. Mills,
Mitchell of Wisconsin. Morrill,, Murphy,
Pslmer, Platt. Proctor, Quay, Ransom,

of Oregon, Morgan, Pasco, PETER, Per-
kins, Pettigrew, Power, Pugh, Roach,
Shoup, Stewart, Teller, Vance, Vest,

The silver men claim that at least
eight senator in the affirmative list are
desirous of securing compromise, and
if SEINE measure can be devised upon
which they and these nine can agree
the vote will be revised.

SENATE PRooEnDINGs.

Squire Offers an Amendment to the
silver Repeal Bill.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-Squire of the
state Of Washington this morning intro
duced in the senate an amendment to
the silver repeal bill embracing about
everything demanded on both sides Of
the question. 1t provides that the
owner of bullion, the product Of mines
or refneries of the United States, may
deposit it at any mint IN an amount not
less than s100 in value, to be made into
standard dollars of the present weight.
there only to be paid to the person de-
posting such bullion such number of
dollars as is equal to the commercial
value of the silver bullion on the day of
deposit, the difference between the COM
mercial value and the mint value to be
retained by the government as seignor-
age. Deposits Of bullion for coinage
are not to exceed $2,000,000 per
month, and when the numbers of dol-
lars coined ehall reach the sum of $780,
600 10000 further coinage shall cease. The
seignorgge shell be rsSained,i the tress-
ury as a reserve fund. For the purpose
of maintaihing the parity of every dollar
issued under this act, these silver doll
lars are to be legal tender in all pay
ments at full value and no certiicateH
shall be issued to represent them. The
secretary of the treasury ie authorized
to issue bonds, the interest not to ex-
ceed 8 per cent, redeemable at the pleas-
ure of the United States after five years.
For the purpose of maintaining all
money at par with gold dollars, national
banking associations shall be entitled to
issue circulating notes to the par value
of the bonds on deposit, provided the
aggregate of such notes, for which any
association is liable, shall not exceed the
capital stock paid in. The amendment
ia, in fact, new bill, striking out all of
the old bill after the enacting clause.
1t is understood Teller, Allison, Sherman
and others cay it is the best compromise
yet suggested.
After Squire's amendment to the sill
yer bill was presented the resolution
heretofore offered by Allen (Pop.) OF
Nebraska, calling for Information ae to
the money borrowed by the United
States, if any, since 1855, was agreed TO.

formation respecting the riding Of Hama
walt on the occasion in which IL came un-
der its notice.
The second race gave the public one of
the closest and most exciting finishes ever
seen on the track, Duke Stevens, Oakland
and Castro finishing heads apart after a
most desperate struggle.
Castro, getting off in front, looked as If
he would never be caught, but Duke
Stevens and Oakland overlook him in the
stretch, and at the 0rawgate the trio were
nearly on even terms, and it was only in
the last stride that it was known who was
the winner.
Oakland was heavily backed favorite
at from q To at the close. with Duke
Stevens at threes and Castro at tweives.
Red Root on his last victory was well
supported at skies, but ran most disap-
pointingly.
In the fourth race Jake Allen was made
strong first choice, going 10 the post at Z
TO .. and he justified the confidence of his
hackers by easily drawing away FROM
Kathleen and Fred Parker, who had been
his closest attendants the first part of the
Journey, and easily gaining his victory by
five lengths from the outsider, Southern
Lady, on whom as good as 5 to could be
had for the place. Notwithstanding her
good showing in the East. Queen Bee was
a poor third.
A tremendous plunge was made on Bar
ney Schrieber's Sir Charles in the last
race. and the long line of happy and pa
tient spectators was conclusive proof of
the public's confidence in BarDey'S en-
tries 1t Is more than noticeable that
when Barney's horses are favoriles they
manage 10 get home first.
Ricardo at the fairly good odds of tens
and twelves was the only horse that gave
Sir Charles the semblance of a contest in
the first part of the journey. the latter
drawing away at the half and winning,
pulled up. by five lengths from the we'll
backed One Dime, who in the last stride
beat Ricardo for the place. ZaragoZa was
heavily played, but ran very poorly in

ST. DOMINIC'S NOW
The Church Visited by
Thieves.
The Steel Poorbox Is Torn From a
Wall While People Are
Praying.

st. Dominic's Church, on Steiner street. near
Bush, has been the latest victim OF the gang OF
burglars who have been robbing the Roman
Catholic churches OF this city during the last
week.
Between and o'clock on Christmas night
the burglars did their work, and at the time
there were fully fifty people in the structure
engaged In their devotions. The thieves had
been waiting patiently aud when the sexton
retired to bis Christmas dinner they started to
work.
There was large poOrbox In the rear of the
church and 10 this they first paid attention.
LII was steel concern and auy attempt TO break
1t open would have attracted the attention of
the worshipers. SO the scoundrels decided on
different plan. They set TO WORK 10 take the
money-box out OF the wall in which it was i'm
bedded. lie box was most securely fitted 10
the wall and was considered by the Dominican
fathers as being perfectly sale, as Its removal
would cause much noise.
Great caution lad been taken In stationing
the poorboX. First, four holes were bored into
lhe Drlck and mortar In the shape of square.
Into these were driven four plugs OF the stout
est wood. Into the latter were secured four
screws attached TO the inside or the little safe.
Yet with all this 1rmness the burglars sue
ceeded In removing the box from the wall with
out attracting the attention of the people pres
emit
The robbery was rot noted until after the
Christmas evening services, when Que OF the
Dominican fathers went to take out the contri-
buttons and found instead Of the aims recepta-
Gle nothing but a broken wall and 4 lot of plaS-
ter on the floor.
The stealing OF thes poorDox was not done
by QUE man." said Father Dugan, 10 a reporter
yesterday "lt was so firmly wedged In the
wall that the strength OF one or even two men
would not have been sufficient to extract H. ex-
cept alter long struggle. Some sort OF sharp
Instrument was used aud probably three or
TOUR men were at work at il to drag it out
quickly, ana probably working at each corner.
Luckily they did not get much for their
pains. On Christmas eve the heaviest dona-

such running as shown: by Simeon G.
Reeds gigantic brown son of imported
Darebin and Lou Lanier. In fact the per-
Torrance yesterday throws completely into
the shade the achievements of all the cham
pion two-year-olds of the coast.
The race is easily described. Going
right TO the front al the start Lucky Dog
at once took up the running, and leadiDg
by from two to three lengths to the far
turn, where be was joined by Realization,
who alone showed that he was in the race
with him. he drew away and won easily
from Gussle and Seaside, several lengths

good as to could have been had about

opened up at even. money. Gussie and
Seaside ruled at twenty-ffves ard thirties.

Notwithstanding North's defeat of
Wednesday Dayenporrs horse was very
: heavily backed yesterday. and showed his
quality by making practical hacks Of such
horses as Jim r and Hal Fisher.
Allowing Annie Moore 10 lead for the
first quarter, North and Jim r went TO the
front. and were heads apart. entering the
stretch, four lengths in front of Hal
Fisher. Jim r could not last in such
speedy company and gave il up,North
