NATIONAL FINANCES
Will Not be Taken up at the Pres
emit Session of Congress.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Events
of the past few days leave little
room for doubt that the financial
question is too prominent tOput in
the senate during the present SEES
sion. 1t is und erstood that the
instructions of the Democratic
senatorial caucus do not go to the
extent Of endorsing the recmOmen-
dations OF the president and Secre-
tary Carlisle, but will require the
Finance committee to take these
suggestions under consideration,
as they would any other sugges-
tions bearing on questions, which
come from a creditable
source. There is little doubt
that the Finance commit
tee will take the matter up,
but with what result is not easily
stated. In the Senate at large the
plan appears to commend itself to
some of the southern senators,
largely because Of it's provision for
the removal OF the state bank tax.
If the bill, on lines suggested,
should reach the Senate, it would
be opposed by the extreme free
silver men, who believe If a law
containing such provisions should
be enacted it would prove death
blow to silver.
