MONEY COUNTS FOR TOO MUCH.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6,-Senator Turpie's
speech to-day in favor OF the election of
United States Senators by the direct vote
of the people was listened to with much
interest by both sides Of the chamber. 1t
is evident that This plan is becoming more
popular as time passes. The action OF the
Democratic caucus to-day in giving day
for the consideration of this resolution is
Indicative Of the strength back of il.
Upon the opening of the Senate German
offered a resolution providing that when
the Senate adjourn it be 10 Monday.
Adopted.
The Presidents message in response to
the Senate resolution submitting informa-
ton as to the arrest of an American citi-
zen In Peru was received.
Turpie took the floor for carefully pre-
pared report on the resolution for the cleo
ton of United States Senators by direct
vote of the people. BE said when we re-
call the harsh examinations and gross
charges of peeuniary corruption and of
fraudulent combln ations and intrigues,
disgraceful and dishonorable to the whole
body with which a prolonged Senatorial
contest is accompanied, whether 10 party
conferences or in open assembly, the re-
moval of such an evil should be deemed q
prime political necessity. 1t has been said
that the Grand Central Railway has
chosen Senator and that a certain State
Central bank has chosen another else
where, and the Central Association of
Mining and Manufacturers have defeated
n third. Nothing is intended to be as
sumed here concerning the truth or falsty
OF these assertions or accusations, but
these malfessant charges have existence.
The way for their radiance is plain. Ii
the choice of the constituent members of
this body were left to the mass of voters
in the State the charges would be indefi-
nitely lessened. They would altogether
disappear if 10 reasonable grounds could
be given for their support.
At the close OF Turpe's speech Morgan
OF Ala bama gave not ce that on Monday
next be would call up the Nicaragua canal
bill, with a view TO explaining it and max
lag some remarks.
Dolph of OREGON called up the bill
exempting from duty the foreign EXHIBITS
at the Portland (Oregon) Exposition, and
the bill was passed.
A bill was passed for the dedication of
the Chckamauga and Chattanooga Ma
tional Park on September 10 and 20, under
the direction of he Secretary of War. and
then. at 1850 P. NJ, the Senate went into
executive session, and at l 30 adjourned

including the appropriation bills, as the
Steering Committee" may deem i'm
portant; and further, that in their report to
the caucus the STEERING Committee" shall
provide the order in which the above sub
iects of legislation shall be considered.
The caucus was in session from until
4:30 P. NJ. to-day, and almost the entire
time was devoted to the discussion of the
first proposition Of Senator Daniels, in
structing the Committee on Rules to bring
in an amendment for cloture, and the
speeches were at times very spirited. Sen
tors Vest, Villas, Berry and George made
speeches favoring the proposition, while
Senators German, Morgan. Palmer, Har-
ris, Pugh and others opposed it with
nervousness and warmth. The opponents
of change evidently had the best of the
argument from the beginning. 1t is un-
derSlood they evoked the ghost Of the force
BILL and urged that if the Republicans
should get into power they would revise
this measure.
The protest against the proposed
changes was so general that when vote
was taken no one considered it necessary
to ask for the ayes and noes. When the
cioture provision was defeated the friends
OF the tariff bill gave up the fight, con-
sdering it unnecessary to make any at
tempt to revive their consideration in view
IT the opposition of majority of the Re
publicans and because OF the fact that any
determined opposition under the rules
would insure their defeat. Hence it is
that those bills do not appear in the of
fetal list of bills 10 be presented for the
consideration of the Senate.
The order Tor preparation of the cur
rency bill by the Finance Committee car
ries with it instructions 10 take the recon-
mendation of the President and Secret ary
of the Treasury into consid eration. It is
also understood that feasible utilization
OF silver is to be included in any currency
scheme presented to or by the committee.

CHICAGO, Dec. Ga peculiar story of al
legged blackmail and unique detective work,
in which a portable telephone figured
prominently, was developed to-day in the
case Of Attorney Charles 1oas, who was
held in heavy bonds by United States Com
missioner Writ for sending Objectionable
matter through the mails. DR.. Jams, a
prominent physician, had for long time,
according to his story, been paying Ioas
for the suppression of a disagreeable bit
of private work, and was driven to des-
peration when his wife received letter
from 1oaS. Ioas, the doctor said, frankly
admitted writing the letter, when no wit
neSSes were present, but denied all knowl-
edge Of il when others were about. At
last. on the advice Of Attorney Luther
Latin Mills, Or. Jams fitted I'D small
telephone in his hat with gold wire trail
ing behind, which connected with teIe-
phone outside the lawyers Office, at which
TWO receivers were stationed, a detective
and stenographer. Entering the lawyers
Office DR.. Jams declares he easily induced
Ioas TO again admit that he had written
the letter. Then DR.. Jams exhibited his
telephone, explained 10 the astonished
lawyer that he had been talking through
the doctors hat and secured his arrest.

ing bill was resumed under a special order

a member of the Commerce Committee.
declared that the bill had four importan t
features. 1t authorized and legalized rail-
road pooling, and IN doing SO it gave a
new grant of power to all the railroads of
the country; it provided amendments to
the procedure section of the present law
in prescribing rules of evidence "a good
featured; it changed wholly the criminal
liability for discriminating in rates, and
lastly it changed the remedies for cause OF
action. While he doubted the advisablity
of granting pooling powers to railroads,
he was willing to agree if such pooling
should be allowed that it should be under
the direct control of a responsible comm is
sion. He offered a substitute TO meet his
objection TO the bill
Henderson (R,) asked if the fact that
small shippers. under a pooling system,
would not be able to get the advantage OF
the low rates now given big shippers
would not justify the passage of a law
legaliZing pooling
Cooper replied that that was the only
consideration which could induce him ia
vote to authorize pooling, but he would
not do so unless safeguards and restric-
tions not ontained In this bill were pro.
vided to prevent the abuse of this proposed
enlargement of the charter powers of the
railroads.
Gresham 3D. of Texas and Moore (R.) OF
Massachusetts spoke in support of the bill
and Daniels (R.) of Norih Carolina in op
position. AT the conclusion of Daniels
