MUST HAVE SPRINGER.
Without Him, Say His Friends, Con-
gress Couldn't Legislate.
YESTERDAYS TIDINGS FROM THE
NATIONS CAPITAL.

Mr.. springers Friends Still Pressing His
Claim to the Ways and Means Chair
manship--The House Polled On the
Silver tOuestion-The National Bank
Bill in the Senate-DIr. Frye Presents
the Nicaragua Canal Bill.
Washington, August 16.-Speaker Crisp
of the committee on rules were in confer
ence yesterday regarding proposed
changes in the code of rules. 1t is under
stood that among the propositions dis
cussed was one fixing the quorum of the
committee of the whole at 100, as was
done in the 51st Congress, and one pro-
viding that the committee of the whole
may limit debate on pending PROPOSE
tion. It is Thought probable that the for
mer change will be recommended for
adoption, and possibly that the latter
will also be favorably considered.
The seclusion of the Speaker for the
reason mentioned was q disappointment
to several members of the House who are
suffering great anxiety on account OF
the most anxious statesman of all is
Mr. Springer. who has not yet abandoned
hope Some of his friends, it is under
stood, have appealed to the Speaker to re-
appoint the Sangamon statesman as
chairman of ways and means on the
ground that his failure to obtain the
place will probably result in his defeat
for denomination next year. They are of
the opinion that, while Springer could
get along without Congress, that body
would be in bad way without Springer.
His friends and admirers in Illinois are
aroused and they are bombarding the
Speaker with letters and dispatches in
his behalf. He is not idle. After obtain
ing from Secretary Carlisle denial of
the statement attributed to him that the
appointment of Mr.. Wilson had been de-
cided upon, Mr.. Springer took heart
again and laid aside his customary re-
serve long enough to disclose some of the
features of the great tariff bill which he
has prepared, and which he describes as
:" a conservative measure" 1t will trans
fer wool, coal, ores, lumber and other
"raw materials to the free list, reduce
the duties on woollen manufactures and
fix the rates on cotton goods, earthen-
ware, manufactures of iron and steel,
etc., so that incidental protection will be
given to American capital and labor.
This, it may be observed is not exactly
IN harmony WlGn 6ne OHlcdgo PieaUloIlh,
but then that instrument appears to be
rapidly falling into innocuous desue-
tuden so far as the administration and
administration Democrats are concerned,
and moreover, as everybody knows,
Springer is a most conservative" states
man. His friends assert that the appoint
ment of Mr.. Wilson as chairman of ways
and means Is not being urged so strong
ly by the New England men as might
have been the case if Judge Wilson had
and iron ore in The last Congress, and to
report the bill reforming the administra-
tive tariff law, which was in his special
charge" and they say that Mr.. Springer's s
bill is likely to be thoroughly satisfactory
to New England tariff reformers, and he
has collected great mass of material
to use in defence of the measure on the
floor of the House.

The Nicaragua Canal.

Washington, August 16.-The Nicara-
qua Canal bill is up again. Mr.. Frye has
reintroduced in the Senate the measure
which Senator Sherman brought forward
in the last Congress and reported favora-
bly from his committee on foreign rela-
tions and which was discussed for sever
al days in the Senate without action. Ihe
capital stock of the company IS liked at
one million shares of 500 each. The
man purpose of the bill, of course, is to
have the government practically assume
the construction of the canal and control
of the company.

In the House.

Washington, August 16.-.In the House,
Immediately after the reading of the
journal, Mr.. Meiklejohn, Rep, of Ne
braska asked unanimous consent for the
consideration of resolution requesting
the secretary of the treasury to communi-
cate to the House certain information re-
lating to the purchase and coinage of
silver under the Sherman law. The reso-
luton was adopted The silver debate
was then resumed.
Mr.. Mccall, Rep, of Massachusetts,,
speaking in favor of repeal, said that he
agreed with the opponents of the bill
that bi-metallism and monometallism
were at issue, but the cause of bi-metal-
lsm was represented by the friends of re-
peal Continuance of the policy of buy
ng silver would inevitably deprive the
government of it's stock of gold and place
th is country upon the silver standard,
and this would practically demonetize
gold.
Mr.. Coombs, Dem, of New York, said
that he would not (although he was
citizen of New York; attempt to defend
the city of New York. Whoever saw
more magnificent spectacle than was now
presented by the banks and merchants OF
that great city? With the storm beating
on their heads from all sides, calmly,
quietly and consistently they held their
ground, and held out the hand of help to
every portion of the country Whenever
disaster and misfortune swooped down
upon any section Of the country, the
cities of New York and Brooklyn were
the first to respond.
Mr.. Bryan Dem.) of Nebraska stated
his opposition to a single standard of
value be it gold or silver, but favored
double standard. He believed single
gold standard would tend to put the
prices for our products to very low fig
ures. Mr.. Bryan spoke in favor of the
retention of the ratio of 16 to l. At the
conclusion of Mr.. Bryan's speech, there
were loud cries of .''Vo ote. vote.'
Mr.. Henderson said the free coinage of
silver would drive this country to a sill
yer basis. If the Democrats had the
courage and patriotism to let the tariff
alone they would set the wheels of in
dustry agoing and would give an impetus
to every branch .of business. ssBut he
could not believe the farmers and work.
ers were interested in cheap money.
Mr.. Moses of Georgia spoke against
the repeal of the bill and opposed the
proposition to raise the ratio to 20 to l.
The House adjourned.

THURSDAY MORNING.
Mr.. Sherman Rep.) of Ohio said that

Mr.. Sherman (Rep) of Ohio said that
the moment treasury notes were put out
on these bonds which were not now due,
and the interest on which was no burden
to the government the notes would be
presented to the government and pay
ment in coin demanded. That would be
an unbusiness-like proposition, and
would complicate the situation. The
proposed amendment he regarded as o
most dangerous financial proposition.
Mr. Cockrell ridiculed the objections
made by Mr.. Sherman, whom he spoke
of as the great friend and patron of the
banks and as the great gold monometal-
list. Why, he asked, should national
banks be allowed to increase their circu-
lation by $4,000, 600 on their bonds now
deposited, while the government itself
could not issue greenbacks to redeem
the per cent bonds? Many questions
were asked Mr.. Cockrell, and tho bill
and amendment went over until tomor-
row.
Mr.. Lodges resolution was taken up
with the GaIlinger amendment, to the
effect that it would be unwise and mex
pedient to make any radical change in
the tariff prior to March, 1897.
Mr.. .Gallinger addressed the Senate. He
declared himself ready to vote for the
repeal of the Sherman act, though he
did not believe that much abused law
was largely responsible for the existing
financial evils. He believed silver and
the Sherman act had infinitely less to do
with the business depression than the
anticipated assault by the party in power
on the Mckinley tariff bill. His amend
ment would put off tariff legislation to
1897, when the Republican party would
be again in power. The Senate ad-
lOurned

from her work, who smiIingly well
coined US all 70 their hospitable
home. The children were helped
