FINANCIAL LEGISLATION.
Probability Of Bill Simply Repeating
the Sherman Law.
Additional Legislation to Como From the
Banking and Currency-Not Fiji
bustering for Free Coinage.

Judge Crisp will not be in Washington be-
fore about the 9th Of August This probably
indicates an intention on bis part to prscti-
cally complste the work Of preparing commit
tee lists before his arrival at the capital.
When he gets here he will probably have his
list ready, subject, Of course, to some changes,
but complete in the main, and the announce
ment OF the committees may be expected
within few days after Congress meets.
1t is, Of course. an erroneous assumption thai
the financial legislation proposed at this session
Of Congress will necessarily come all from the
coinage committee. The only work for that
committee is what relates to the Sherman silver
law. The bill to repeal that law will necessarily
60 to the coinage committee, and IL 1t should
be amended the amendment could relate ia
coinage only and not to banking. The proba-
bilities are, however, that . eimple repeal bill,
stopping the purchase Of silver under the
Sherman law, will be reported and that what
ever financial legislation in addition to this
ts contemplated will come later from
the committee on banking and currency. There
IL very strong feeling that any attempt to in
clude other LEGISLATION in the same bill which
repeals the Sherman law would protract the
fight and postpone indefinitely the stoppage oi
the silver purchase. An earnest effort win bt
made to get rid Of the existing law first and tc
devise some system for national currency after.
ward.
Probable Banking Legfslation.
A good many Of the leaders in the House arr
very anxious to have the tax on state bank
repealed, but there will be number OF othel
propositions pressed, and il is believed tha
there will be . strong following for a national
system based on the old New York bank
ing law, which Horace White has adapted
to onr present national bank system
doing away with the deposit Of bonds
by national banks to secure their cur
rency and securing it instead by o safety FUND
acquired from . per cent tax on bank circu
lation. A bill for this purpose will be intro
duced as soon as Congress meets, and it il be-
lieved that it or something similar to it will be
reported to the committee.
With relation to the suggestion that Messrs
Morgan, Pugh, Daniel, Teller, Stewart and
Wolcott will conduct flibuster in the Senate
against the repeal OF the Sherman law withou
free coinage attachment. 1t is said that thu
public sentiment in Alabama and Virginia il
such as to make this action on the part Of tn.
two Alabama Senators and Mr.. Daniel danger
Gus to their personal interests, and the opin
ion IL expressed in quarters to make /
| worthy OF consideration that, while thes,
three men will probably fight for f,ee coinag,
and resist the repeal Of ,he Sherman law unles
they can get free coinage. they will not carr,
their opposition to the extent Of flibustering
and that Messrs. Stewart and Teller will be de
serted by the democratic colleagues Of tn
silver faith il they begin q iibuster.

READY FOR THE FRAY.

The Capitol In Condition to Receive Con-
gress at Once.
The Capitol IL rapidly recuperating from the
assault of the last Congress and is beginning to
have that fresh, healthy appearance that marks
the entire building when 1t has been for any
length Of time in the hands Of the doctors. In
another week both the Senate and the House sides
will be in perfect shape for the reception Of the
men who have been called together to place the
finances Of the country on q firm basis and
restore the shattered confidence Of the people.
On the Senate side the chamber itself
could be occupied tomorrow. Instead of q
heavy carpet q mating selected with good
taste has been laid, which gives to the hall
cool, comfortable appearance. which will prob
ably be In marked contrast with the hot de-
hates which every one expects to occur there.
All the committee rooms have been thoroughly
overhauled and placed in the best Of condition.
New carpets have been laid, desks recovered
and the sanitary system improved where 1t was
found necessary to do SO. Every improve
ment has been made with the idea of having
the building as cool ~ possible during the
extra session.
On the House side the renovation is as fully
advanced in the committee rooms. The plumb
ing, which was entirely changed and replaced
with the latest improvements in sanitary sys-
TENS. is practically completed. Today the
the House, as the men were laying the carpet.
The immense rolls only arrived last night and
early this morning the carpet men we're putting
it down. 1t is a heavy Brussels of dark green
shade, with a dash here and there Of the Tam
many yellow. Some envious republican was
mean enough to remark that the selection was
very apt, in that the color indicated the gen.
erai complexion Of the next House, with
few brilliant lights from republicans
scattered about to relieve the monotony Of the
scene. Mr.. Foster, who is looking after this
work, is busy every minute. He appears to b
everywhere at once. He said this morni4
that the House would be in perfect order in
about week. All the chairs and desks have
been newly vanished and the desks have been
recovered with beautiful green to match the
carpet and the ideas of some of the new Con-
gressmen. Carpet was put down in the House
under the impression that the session will be .
continuous one and that an opportunity would
not be offered to change had mating been
substituted

OF trouble The department is being called
'ptingy" by postmasters and mean old thing
by postmistresses throughout the country, and
severely scored By suudry newspapers for wha,
they term its spirit Of false economy. The
trouble has arisen from complaints that the
department is not giving certain post Offices
sufficient allowances TO conduct the free delivery
service as it should be.
"My attention has been called to some Of the
complaints" said Acting Postmaster General
Jones today. Sour inability to comply with
these requests is rs ANNOYING to us as il can be

Offices II is no fault Of ours, however, but

much interested in and as anxious to Improve
the efficiency Of the service throughout the
country as any one can be, but the appropria-

wear is not enough TO meet the expenses on a

Officers on duty at the War Department,
characterize as ridiculous the report tha,
Gen. Schofeld disobeyed an order Of ex-Secre-
tary Elkins in regard to the use Of aigulettes on
the uniforms Of all staff officers
The fact Of the matter Is that Secretary FL
kins prepared the order under q misapprehen-
sion OF its full effect, and recalled it from Gen.
Schofield before the latter even had chance
to pass upon it. The records show that the
order was recalled by Secretary Elkius "for
reconsideration" and that no further steps have
since been taken in the matter. The best OF
relations existed between Secretary Elkns and
Gen. Schofeld, and it Is extremely improbable
that any friction occurred between them

Several Important Appointments Expected
When He Gets Back.
Secretary Carlisle is expected to reach the
city this afternoon, and will probably be at his
desk tomorrow morning. During bis absence
very few appointments have been made, but q
number Of important places will probably be
filled within q short time. The Secretary has
several vacancies among the internal revenue
collectors, which will likely receive his earliest
attention.
The best Of information is that the position
OF director OF mint will not be filled for some
time. Mr.. Preston, who has been acting direc-
tor, has filled the place mos. ecceptab1y
to the administration, and he will
probably remain there for the present
at least. 1t is believed that his views on the
purchases Of silver are heartily sustained by the
Secretary, and though they have received some
criticism from the silver men, it is not likely
that they will be reversed.

HARRISBURG, Pa, July 19.-No divorce pro-
ceedings have yet been entered by either Marie
Decca or her husband, Francis Leon Chrismsn,
as the outgrowth Of the equity suit to establish
her title to house purchased here By her hus-
band with funds she alleges belonged to her.
II is stated that having been deserted by her
husband she is the only one who could bring an
action in divorce, but that she does not con-
template such petition and would resist any
move of the kind on the part of the husband,
who is now employed on Chicago newspapers.
The legal controversy over the possession
of the Villa Decca will likely continue for
months TO come unless the songstress and her
husband, who was also her manager, agree to
bury their differences and again live together.
