Senator HansborouCh's Scheme.

Some of the Northwestern Senators have been
casting about for some sort of an amendment TO
the repeal bill that will be satisfactory to the
silver men, and which will at the same time
get the signature of the President, should 1t
pass. Mr.. Hausborough believes that he has
one that will accomplish this purpose, and
whici is satisfactory 40 the men from the
Pacific coast The amendment has been printed
and referred to the Finance Committee, where
lie hopes it may be taken up and perhaps
amended. keeping intact, however, the princip pie
it enunciates.
The amendment will retire all paper money
Of denominations less than $50, and all gold
coin Of less than the same amount, except,
possibly the silver certificates of denominations
less than $50 now outstanding. 1t requires
that, in the place of the currency thus retired,
including National bank notes, silver cert;f.
Gates shall be issued to like amount and that
those silver certificates shall be based upon
silver purchased at the market price and coined
into standard silver dollars as fast as the cur
rency indicated is retired.

New Fusion in Kansas.

The latest fusion deal in Kansas has created
q great deal Of comment amsng all classes of
politicians. The other day the Republican
and Democratic Central Committees of Seward
County met aud called joint nvention Of
the two parties to meet at the courthouse in
Liberal last Saturday to nominate q County
ticket.
The call reeitea that it was time for all law
abiding people in Kansas to come together on a
broad and patriotic campaign and unite against
ems to destroy the credit and good name OF
Kansas and hold her people up to the ridicule
and derision Of the entire Nation.
These references are made against the Popu-
list party, that is endeavoring to capture the
heretofore Republican Countis. in western
Kansas. Dispatches from that section say that
this Democratic Republican fusion will proba-
bly, be made in score of Counties.

Chicago, marked the formal opening Of the
Columbian Catholic Congress OF the United
States Monday, large number of the dele
gates being in attendance.
At the conclusion of the services those in at
tendance repaired to the art institute, where
during the entire week the largest and most
comprehensive gathering ever held under the
auspices OF any single denomination will be
held
The spacious corridors and reception rooms
were thronged with prominent chutchmeu long
before the hour of the meeting, and the sober
ness of the clergy and the flowing robes OF tho
sisters were seen everywhere. Every
diocese and viearate in the United States was
represented. There wero fully 5000 persons in
the audience when Secretary Onahan, of the
Committee On organization, called the gather
ing to order in the Hall of Columbus
After the reading of the official call by the
Secretary, Archbishop Feehan, of Chicago, well
coined the visitors 10 the Worlds Fair city and
to the Catholic Congress. He also outlined the
work of preparation, and told the delegates
what would be expected of them in the way Of
practical work during the week. Hon. Chas.
Carroll Bonney, President of the Congress
Auxiliary, and who has so successfully con-
Quoted the previous National and International
gatherings, seconded tho Archbishop's words
of welcome. The Worlds Columbian Exposi-
ton was represented by Hon. Thomas B. Bryan,
who referred to the congresses as the most en-
during part of the Worlds Fair.
The opening address was delivered by his
eminence Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of
Baltimore. He was received with great en-
thusasm, and was obliged to wait several min
utes before his voice could be heard.

was one of the gentlemen upon whom Speaker
Reed sat down so effectually in the olden days

as noted an "objector" as Mr.. Holman, and

Gen. Grosvenor TO-, r. defended ex-Speaker
Reed impressively.
Mr. Holman, who is opposed to any changes
in the traditional customs and rules of the
Democratic party, spoke strongly in opposition
to the rule which makes 100 members quorum
in the Committee of the Whole House.
Mr. Cultivate, the new member of the Com

rules which had been assailed.
Further debate followed Several amend

Mr.. Voorhees, lind, d., Chairman of the FL

REVEALING part of the Sherman act, with an
amendment in the nature of a substitute. He
asked that the bill be placed upon the calendar,
aud he gave notice that he should call it up
Immediately after the morning business from
this time oil until il disposed OF. He eG-
planned further, that the BILL as reported from
the Finance Committee was identical with
that passed by the House, so far as concerned
the repeal of the purchasing clause, aud that
from that point on there was certain matter in
the substitute which was not in the House bill,
but which, in his judgment, improved it, and
made it more acceptable.
After some discussion the bill was placed on
the calendar, TO be called up for the first time
TO morrow.
The resolution offered By Mr. Stewart yester-
day was laid before the Senate. 1t directs the
Secretary of the Treasury to inform the Senate
whether there is danger Of deficiency in the
revenues during the current year; and If so,
what is the probable amount, and whether
legislation is necessary to supply that def
cheney.
The resolution caused a long discussion, it
being opposed principally on the ground that
il would cause needless alarm, as well as cast
reflection on the Secretary Of the Treasury.

Mr.. CullOm addressed the Senate in favor of

In the House, the time was spent mostly in
debating proposition to strike out from the
proposed rules the clause making 100 quorum
Of the Committee of the Whole. This was one
of the innovations adopted by the Republi-
cans in the 5lst Congress and against which the
Democrats, including Mr Crisp. Mr. Cultivate,
and Mr. Catchiugs, the three Democratic men,
bers OF the present Committee On Rules, all
protested az "subversiva of Constitutional Gov
eminent"
The 100 quorum provision was net disposed
of to-day, but it is probable that it will be re-
tanned, as all the Republicans will vote for it,
and thus one of the " Reed Innovations" in OPP
posing which the Democrats went TO the verge
OF revolution, becomes in SO short space of
time good Democratic doctrines.

nothing in the House while the silver bill is
pending in tho Senate, the House at $3.50 ad-

held for eight years. President Grant, in
1870, appointed him United States circuit
judge for the fourth judicial circuit. He
presided in the famous ku-klux trials in
the Carolinas, and decided the famous
South Carolina presidential electoral
board case in 1876. At the time of his
death Judge Bond wa chief judge of the
United States circuit court.
Judge Bond was a great partisan, and
his decisions were always against our
people. One of his most unjust decisions
in the south was in regard to the Virginia
debt cases and he had the attorney gen.
eral Of that state and several ATTORNEYS of
the commonwealth jailed because they
chose to obey the states laws instead of
his orders. The United States supreme
court promptly set his decisions aside
and liberated the state officers. Doubt
less President Cleveland will give US a
judge in his stead who will be free from
sectional prejudice.
