them would bring adjournment, that
would not be long delayed, ae there are
no irreconciIable differences between
the two houses on appropriations.
There is no measure other than the
tariff bill and appropriation bills which
will he strong enough to hold the SEN
ate together for even day. The
proba bilities for the week include the
tariff conference committee report, the
subsequent debate and also the pre-

THE SILVER QUESTION.
A New Scheme for its Final Solution In
Guiding Free Unlimited Coinage.

cluding Free Unlimited Coinage.
Mr.. J. G.. Hertwig, of Indianapolis, Ind,
who has made the silver question study for
years. has arrived at the following scheme for
| its final and practical solution: He is OF the
opinion that at present free and unlimited
coinage of an annually correct silver dollar,
correct as to its bullion value compared with
that OF the gold dollar, should be adopted by
the government of this country.
Only silver produced in the United States,
and not derived from annually correct silver
dollars coined in previous years. should,
under the respective oath OF the owner Of the
metal. be admitted to such free coinage The
| new temporary dollars should be just as well
full legal tender money rs the present stand
ard silver dollars. Silver certificates of a
new kind should be issued by the government
for such annually correct silver dollars de-
posted with il. The variety of the bullion
value OF the new silver dollars. coined in diff
ferent years, could not affect their circulation.
because every one of them, irrespective of its
weight. by the stamp of the government and
the words zone Dollar thereon, would al
ways be worth Just 81. 100 hundred cents in
gold, and never more nor less.
As there would he doubtless a demand for
such annually correct silver dollars. both at
home and abroad, they would, Mr.. Hertwig
thinks, gradually bring up the market price
of silver in the present standard silver dollars
Of this country to par with gold. The con-
tinued free and unlimited coinage of such an
nually correct silver dollars would also bring
the market price of silver up to par with gold
in the full legal tender pieces of the bime;al-
lie and silver monometallic countries of Eu-
rope, and thus lead to permanent interna-
tional bimetallism. the greatest financial
blessing to mankind. Mr.. Hertwig has pre-
pared an elaborate lecture on the subject.
which he will deliver upon moderate terms in
cities and towns before societies or associa-
tions. His address is: J. G. Hertwig. Plaza

Owing to the fact that the major portion Of
yesterday in the Senate was to be held behind
closed doors in the consideration of executive
business, Mr.. Harris decided to make no at
tempt to take up the tariff bill.
Immediately after the reading OF the jour
nal the Senate proceeded to the consideration
of bills on the calendar. A bill for the relief
of the citizens of Oregon. Idaho and Washing
ton who served with the United States troops
in the war against the Nez Perces and Ban
mock and Shoshone Indians and the heirs Of
those killed in that service was passed on
motion of Mr.. Shoup.
One or two unimportant private bills were
passed, after which Mr.. Hunton again called
up the bill TO remit the penalties on the dyna-
mite cruiser Vesuvius. which he has made in
effectual efforts to have passed for several
days.
Mr. Chandler opposed it as a "one-sided
and losing business for the government" but
it was passed.
At 1l.35. on motion Of Mr.. Harris, the doors
were closed and the Senate proceeded to the
consideration of executive business. At 3.45

Trial of tho Alleged Bigamist and En-.
bezzlcr to Come Up Tomorrow.
Samuel H. Dyott, who Is to be tried at
Rockville, Nd. tomorrow for bigamy, stoutly
maintains that he is not the man who was
married to Miss Margo Ricketts,, and Father
Rosensteel, the minister who married the
couple. also has some doubts as to Dyotts
identity.
Despite these statements, however, Miss
Ricketts, says that he is the man who not only
married and deserted her. but carried 800 of
her money with him when he left her. Dyott
also claims that the lady who poses as his
wife here was not married to him, but Is an
employe of his sisters in Baltimore.
Regarding the other charges against him.
they are still pending, and should he happen
to get released from his present position he
will be brought back and tried by the Dis
trict authorities.
The most severe charge Is the embezzle-
ment of over $500 from the Crawford Shoe
Company, which company's F-street store
was under his management 1t was learned
at the city hall yesterday that the reason he
was turned over to the Maryland authorities
was that they have n case against him which
will incarcerate him in prison for a much
longer term should he be convicted, and
he will be tried for his doings here also.
No new developments in the case could be
obtained last night as Dyott's attorney, Mr..
Campbell Darlington, could not be found,
Mr.. Darlington was at Rockville yesterday.
The Crawford Shoe Company have had
several chances to settle their little difficulty
with Dyott, but the efforts on the part OF his
family and friends have been refused. They
have instructed their manager here not to ac-
cept any settlement whatever.
The trial tomorrow will be watched with
interest, as the gay Lothario has aroused the
peoples curiosity to a great extent. The fact
that he is not married to the present Mrs.
Dyott will be quite surprise if it is proven.
He stated in the presence of a number of wit
nesses just before going to Rockville and also
in the presence of her that he was never mar
ried to her. Regarding Miss Clipper. it was
learned at her home recently that she will
not be in the present trial, as Miss Ricketts,
testimony will be amply sufficient, but should
he not be- the husband of the present Mrs.
Dyott No. l, her testimony will be valuable to
the authorities, providing they have been
married
