READY FOR BUSINESS.
Silver Men In Congress Gstting Ready to
Renew tho FiEht.-Diand's
Little Trap.

A Washington dispatch says:
The indications are that the free coinage
fight will be renewed with rather increased
v!gor a, the opening Of the regular session
OF Congress.
For the past two or three weeks tho silver
men have been singularly quiet, and the rea.
| son for this has now become apparent. The
silver men were waiting for sufficient time
TO elapse after the repeal OF the Sherman &C,
In order TO demonstrate TO the people that the
silver purchase law was not the cause Of the
great financial depression, and that IL repeal
would not prove panacea for all the CON.
mcrcial evils which have accompanied the
'imes. They think the demonstration OF this
fact 10 apparent To the American people now,
80 that the silver men are preparing 10 say to
the two houses OF Congress, next month that
the legislation demanded by the adminis,ra.
,ion has been failure In restoring CONNER
clal prosperity; that the position Of the silver
men IN urging free coinage at the late session
has been vindieated, and that now the Demo
cratic party In Congress should devote iu,eli
10 rcdeeming the remaining pledges OF the
last Democratic national convention OF the
subject Of silver and financial legislation.
With this object 10 Wow Chairman Bland
Of the committee on coinage, weights aud
measures, IL preparing n bill, which he, as
the leader OF the free coinage men. will In.
uoiuoe at the opening OF the next sesaion. II
