SILVER LAID OVER.
The Sherman Act Will Not be Re-
pealed This Session.

WASHINGTON, Feb 10.-The intensity of
feeling manifested by the ultra-silver men
in the house when the resolution for the
consideration of the AndrewCate bill was
called up, and the applause which greeted
Mr. Bland when he threw defiance at Mr..
Cleveland and predicted the utter dsrup-
ton Of the Democratic party II the war on
silver was continued, gave plain indication
of pending trouble for that party.
Mr.. Bland, after accusing the eastern
Democrats of deceiving the people at the
late election, and of violating the pledges
of the platform, said that there was no
hand strong enough to force the suspen-
sion of silver purchase through the house,
and that the attempt to do so would so
split the party that they gould never be
brought together again, and this declara-
tion was greeted with prolonged applause
AT 1925 the house began voting on a
motion of Mr.. Catchings setting apart yes
terday and today for the consideration of
the bill repeating the Sherman act, the
anti-silver men aiming to vote 1t down in
order to have u chance on closure, On the
first roll call tho silver men were ten votes
ahead The anti-silver men got more
votes on the Democratic side than had
been expected but the Republicans
split up.
A vote was taken on the motion to order
the previous question. The vote was in
favor Of the previous question and against
closure in the house-I53 to l4l.
1t is believed at u capitol that the
action Of the house on the silver question
renders an extra session of congress abso-
lutely certain or course it ends the
matter for this session and shows that the
silver men are sitter in the back than was
expected.
The fact, however, that only about five
more Democrats voteAA for the previous
question than voted against it, and that
about three more Republicans voted for il
than against it, indicates the possibility OF
different result should a vote be taken al
an extra session OF the next congress.
1t is declared by many men on the silver
side of the question who are in a position
to know the temper of the house that hat
compromise been offered providing fol
| the courage of two millions month In tn,
place of the present purchase of silver
| two-thirds of the Democrats would hay,
| voted for it. Mr. Cleveland was at on'
| time disposed to accept such compromise
| but was argued out of it.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1O.-Paul Neuman
member of the ex-queen Liliuokalini's
cabinet, was among the passengers on the
Australia, which arrived from Honolulu
yesterday. He is on his way to Washing
ton, where he will lay the case of the de-
posed queen before the state department.
Mr. Neuman refused to disclose the nature
of the dispatches he bore, but he felt sure
they would have much weight with the
president and the secretary OF state. In
reply to question Mr.. Newman said;
''fhe queen is as friendly to the United
States as anybody on the island and If
the United States wants to annex Hawaii
she IL perfectly willing, if it is done prop
erly." Mr., Neuman says the action of
Minister Stes ems in landing United States
troops was unwarranted.
