The SENATE WILL WAIT
Is Members Will Hear ths H0uie
Talk About Silver.
CONGRESSMEN WARMING UP
Scores OF Them Are Ready TO Take
Their Place in the Great De-
bate on the QUESTION OF
Free Coinage.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l3-Congress has
settled down to its debate with n degree
of expedition almost unknown in its his
tory, and with an apparent determination
10 do something. Fortunately for n ma
iority IN the senate. the action of tho
house OH the silver question has relieved
them from the necessity OF speedy. and
perhaps ill-adylsed action. The demo-
cratic caucus committee charged with
the preparation of plan that should Sc
cure the adherence OF the united majority,
will therefore begin its iabors With more
delIbcration than would have otherwise
been possible. and IL Is not expected nov
that they will perfect their work much be-
fore the house has acted.
The finance committee will probably
wait upon tho action OF the caucus COM
mttee. and SO the silver question Is not
likely 10 figure IA a formal way ia the pro-
cee,lings Of the senate this week. II Is en-
iircly possible, and even probable. that
speeches will he delivered upon the sub
ject, but II so they will be based upon
some such resolution as that introduced
by senator Lodge. calling for a vote upon
tho repeal of the silver-purchase section
in tho sherman act. and not upon hill
regularly reported from the finance COM
mittcc.
The programme of the house has been
definitely fixed by the adoption OF the
order introduced on Friday last BY Bland,
the time to be devoted exclusively to the
con sideration of the silver question under
the rules of the laS house. governing the
general debate. Notwithstanding the APP
parent lack of interest In discussion man
fesicd by members on Saturday, tho
number of applications for recognition
already on the speakers list demonstrates
that the period allotted to debate, eleven
days. under general rules and three days
under the five minute rule, will be all oc-
cupied. There are now between ninety
ANA hundred names enrolled by tho
speaker, a great majority OF whom prob
ably expect tn talk the full hour allowed
by the rule. II IL appears that the time
for debate * too short to accommodate all
who wish to speak, night sessions will be
held, but this eNpcdcnt, II Is believed,
will not become necessary before next
week.
