TALKING OF COMPROMISE
Cleveland Would Not Object to
an Issue of Bonds.
HOW THE SENATE STANDS NOW.
There Is Claimed to Be q Clear
Majority of Eleven Favor
able to Repeal.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 10.-Senators of all
shades of opinion now agree that the
night session experiment is necessary to
bring the Senate to agreement on the
financial question. Opinions differ much
as to the probable length OF the continuous
session and as to what reSnit i. will lead.
The silver men are counting upon its con-
tinuing for forty-eight hours and are
making plans accordingly. They will
make an effort at 6 o'clock tomorrow
afternoon to secure an adjournment. but
do not expect to succeed. After the
adjournment motion has been voted down
sumo silver advocate will take the floor
and speak until relieved by some other
Senator holding like views. The leaders
on the silver side say that so far as they
can control their forces they will insist
that the majority shall maintain a
quorum, and it is evident that the repeal
men will have to continuously be present
in quite large numbers TO prevent an
Adjournment.
The majority Of the Senators admit that
a compromise is the most probable result
of the night session experiment, but
Senator Voorhees, and his immediate fol-
lowers say the bill will 60 through as re-
ported. A careful canvass of the Senate
shows that il vote should be reached
upon the bill as it stands it would carry
by majority OF eleven, and that the vote
would be as follows, supposing all the
Senators to be present:
Ayes-Aldrich, Allison, Brce. Caffrey,
Camden, Carey. Chandler. Culloin. Davis,
nh Col
Gibson, Gordon, German, Gray, Hale,
Hawley, Higgins. Hill. Hoar, HuntoD,
Lindsay. Lodge. Mcmillan. Mcpherson,

Jones of Nevada, Kyle. Martin. Mitchell
of Connecticut, Morgan. Pasco, PETER. Per
kins. Pettigrew. Power. Pugh. Roach
Shoup. Stewart, Teller. Vance. Vest, Wal
thai, White of California, Wolcott-37.
The silver men claim that al least eight
Senators in the affirmative list are de-
sirous of securing a compromise, and that
if some measure can be devised upon
which they and these eight can agree the
vote will be reversed.
NEW DIRK, Oct. 10.-The Posts Wash
ington special says: The discussion OF
compromise measures is still going or
among silver men and they are trying
their best TO devise some scheme which
the administration Senators will agree to-
Every one Of the plans proposed contains
some provision for the issue of severa
hundred millions Of bonds. but a rumoI
prevails that this feature does not fnG
favor with either the President or Secre
tary Carlisle. Where this idea arose it i:
difficult to discover, for certainly nothing
authoritative has come from the White
House or the treasury looking in this d
rection. On the contrary there Is very
good reason to believe that entirely
apart from any question of compromise
the administration would favor rather
than repel any legislation giving it un
questionable authority to sell bonds
| What it would seriously object to would bt
mandatory act requiring the issue Of
such securities whether the emergency ex
| lists or not
