The Vote To-day.

In accordance with an agreement cn-
tered into when the SILVER debate was be
gun, the House win to-day vote on the
question of free silver coinage at the ex-
listing ratio Of 10 10 ]. and at an increased
ratio up 20 20 to 1. Ifno one Of the ratios
proves TO be acceptable n vote will be
taken on the Wilson bill, which pro-
vides for the unconditional repeal Of the
Sherman silver law.
The sound money men feel confident that
free silver coinage win be rejected at any
ratio, and that the Wilson bill will be
passed by very satisfactory majority.
If this should be the case, and there is now
no reason to doubt it will, the Wilson bill
will be sent to the Senate Immediately,
where it will rest until the Senate gets
ready to vote on the Voorhees, bill, which
is virtually the Wilson bill with a simple
declaration in favor Of bimetallism added
tolt.
According to our dispatches the Voorhees,
bin viii be passed by the Senate within
the next week or two. II is believed that
the Voorhees, bill is the one that will be
agreed to finally by congress. The Presi-
dent would sign it promptly because it is,
in effect, what he recommended in his
message.
The vote in the House to-day win be
looked for with intense interest. The
people have been waiting patiently for re
lief legislation, and the passage Of the
Wilson bill by the House viii have the
effect Of creating better feeling in finan-
cial circles.
There is still some doubt as to whether
a majority Of the Senate viii vote for the
unconditional repeal of the Sherman sill
yer law, but the very general belief Of
those who are in position TO give an I'M
biased opinion as to the sentiment of sena-
tors in respect to silver is that
the bill repeating the Sherman silver law
will be passed. In a week, probably,
but certainly within two weeks, it will be
definitely known whether or not the
'cowardly makeshift" known as the
Sherman silver law win be removed from
the statutes.
The country has heard all it cares to
hear at this time in respect to silver, and
there would be general rejoicing if the
Senate should pass a repeal bill at the
same time the House does,

The Atlanta Busting out.

When Secretary Herbert took charge
of the navy it was suspected, by him and
others, that he would find a good many
loose ends that needed to be taken up.
And before many weeks went by the sus-
picion was proved well founded 1t was
demonstrated that some of the subordi-
nate officers had habit of running
things about to suit themselves. When
certain commanders were ordered to sea
they hesitated and found excuses for de-
lay until the order was countermanded or
the officer took it in his head to go, as a
matter of accommodation to the authori-
ties.
But, in the midst of all this, not even
the secretary suspected that the need of
rubbing up and lubricating, so to speak,
extended beyond the officers to the ships
themselves. 1t has been ascertained,
however, that at least one splendid ship
OF the new navy has for more than year
been rusting to ruin.
Recent events aboard the cruiser At
lanta convinced the secretary that an in
vestigatiOn of the officers and a rigid in
spection of the ship was necessary. The
outcome of the inspection has Just become
known. 1t is said that, although the
Atlanta is new ship she will have to
undergo repairs from keelson to truck.
Outside, to the casual observer, she is as
clean and bright as a new made pin. But
in the holds things are different The
water-tight compartment doors are rusted
on their hinges until the doors cannot
be shut, and the compartments are, there
fore, useless. The inspectors say they
are sure the doors have not been shut for
u year; the regulations say they shall be
shut and opened every day. Steam and
drain pipes deep down in the vessel are
said to be eaten with rust until they leak
constantly. Some Of these leaks, to use
the language of the Baltimore Suns re-
port, "havel rusted the hull so as to re-
duce it to one half of its original thick
ness"
To say that Secretary Herbert is angry
at the state of affairs is putting it mildly.
He is going to stir things up as they de-
serve to be stirred. The officers respon-
sible for the rust will probably be put
where they may rust all they want TO- But
such carelessness will not in future be
permitted in the navy.

WHY the Outlook Briehtenine.

There is a much better feeling IA fnan-
cial and commercial circles because the
belief is growing that the sherman silver
law viii be Internationally repealed. II
the situation in congress should become
So changed as to make the repeal of that
law doubtful the financial situation
would quickly become even worse than it
was a week or two ago, and there would
be numerous failures. There are finan-
ciai institutions and business firms that
are holding off disaster from
day TO rday, hoping that
the Sherman silver law will soon be re-
pealed, and confidence so restored that
the money stringency will cease. Re
move the hope they have of an early
relief and they would yield to the pres
sure against which they are now bravely
and successfully struggling.
The fact that the belief that the Sher-
man silver law win be Internationally
repealed is helping the financial situation
is good evidence that that law, and not
the fear of tariff reform, as many repub-
hcans allege, IS the cause of the financial
distress. The truth is, that
if fear of changes in the
tariff was the cause of the money
stringency and business stagnation the
financial troubles would have occurred
Immediately after Mr.. Cleveland's cleo
ton, because he was elected with the IN

formed
The enormous purchases of silver by
the government weakened confidence in
the stability of our currency and brought
on the panic, and when the purchases of
silver are stopped the panic will disap-
pear. Congressman who refuse to assist
in putting an end to the panic do not rep
resent their constituents, and ought to be
made to understand that they do not.
