WasHIssroy CfTY. April fa-Biand's
coinage committee met today for the first
tine since the seigniorage silver struggle.
and was treated to . genuine surprise
Representative Meyer of Louisiana vas
present and urged his bill for coming the
seigniorage for low interest bonds. and in
doing so he stated that the measure had
the approval and was partly suggested by
Secretary Carlisle. and, in the judgment of
the secretary. it will be signed By the pres
ident. To this extent the bill is regarded
rs m administration one. and as satisfac-
torily overcoming the objections of Cleve-
land TO the Bland bill. The bill, Mr.. Meyer
explained, provided for coming the seign-
forage and so amended the resumption
act that per cent. bonds would in future
be issued in lieu of AZ and per cent.
bonds. Mr.. Dingley expressed surprise al
this. as he said the objection of the presi-
dents veto would not be met by the low
rate bonds of the Meyer bill. The measure
was discussed by the committee, but no
conclusion was reached.
Secretary Carlisle was shown at the
treasury department the statements made
in the coinage COMMITTEES. He declined to
discuss the merits Of the Meyer bill. 1t
was learned, however, that the bill as
originally prepared was presented to Mr..
Carlisle. who at Mr.. Meyers request, die
tated revision of it. the presumption
being that as revised IL met his approval
Ii Is not believed, however, that the mat
ter has been brought to the attention of
the president, and whether he would ap-
prove it if presented to him is prob
lematical.

Senator Morrill, of Vermont who recently
celebrated his Saith birthday aud is the
Nestor Of the senass, was recognixed and
was accorded more respectful attention
than has fallen to the lot OF most speak
ers on the tariff question. In spite Of his
advanced age the speaker was clearly
heard, though evidently suffering from a
cold. He expressed regrets that the
financial and industrial crisis was to be
continued in vaingiorious attempt to
carry out the Democratic platform. He
made biting references to the trouble
among the Democrats themselves over the
bill, and pointed to items in which they
compromised with their principles. Con.
corning the rates reported in the bill, he
declared the senate finance committee
fixed them without the votes of the Re.
publican members and against the votes
OF the Democratic minority, so the tariff
"tor revenue only" proves to be ''only
political tariffs, void after the next elec-
tion." The special evil of the bill he
thought to be the absolute al valorem sys-
tenn. The bill was especially destructive
to the productions of farmers. The rec
iprocIty arrangements. which benefited
the farmers, would be abrogated, and the
income tax. an unusual biunder even OF a
Democratic administration, substituted.
Should the bill become a law the world
would regret it because OF the calamities
with which its chapters were pregnant.
Morrill,. after speaking sixty-fve minutes.

Turpie spoke in support OF the tariff bill.
He discussed the effect of high tariff on
the agricultural interests, introducing the

the prosecution rested its case today after
placing Mrs. Hedburg. wife Of the muir
dered man, on the stand. She stood the
ordeal remarkably well. and cross-exxm-
ination was waived by the defense. She
gave direct evidence bearing directly upon
the case. She produced the letter Of
Nancy to Hedbure after their quarrel, in
which Nancy threatened to use . weapon.
The letter says:
"Your cowardly act in attempting to
use your pistol when your want Of courage
made you threaten to use it is but the
empty bark of eur, and aroused me to a
degree of determining to kill you a. you

Democratic Party.
The Republicans held q meeting In
the Sixth ward, and the addresses, or
rather the address, for there was only
one, was delivered at the room OF the
Sixth ward Republican club on South
Chapline street. There was fairly
good-sized crowd present-aoout 90
persons.
Mr.. n. Z. Whitaker was introduced
as the speaker of the evening, and the
chairman might have added OF the
night, for he spoke almost Two hours,
without saying anything, and then tried
10 defend his record as shown up In the
REGISTER yesterday. In speaking OF
the general issues of the present cam
paiqn he said "How the Democratic
Headers and papers Of not only the
State, but right in this city,
in the face of the fact that
the country had thirty odd years OF
prosperity, can lie and maliGn the Re-
publican party Is beyond my compre-
hension. can't see how the REGISTER
can stand in its position OF grayely mis-
representing facts. How the man who
ia at the head of that paper can walk
ON the streets aud meet people-Work-
snp men-and not blush tor his dis
reputable actions In conjunction with
the Democratic party is more than l
can conceive. When Bourke Cochran,
VIM. L. Wilson aud John Cowen spoke
in this city last week they willtully
misrepresented facts in every thing"
Mr.. Whitaker, in speaking OF the re-
cent hard times. said that they were
caused by the legislation OF the Demo
cratic Congress last summer and not by
the actions Of the Republican party, as
was claimed by the Democrats. IF, )"
said he, 1.-The Republican party, by its
maladministration, as Is claimed, was
the cause of the panic, why did the
country have to wait thirty odd
wears for it?" He called the
Wilson bill an abortion, and said that II
was the cause OF all the distress aud
wretchedness in the land during the
last eighteen months. After speaking
on this line for about an hour without
eliciting any applause from his sixty
FIVE auditors, except when the REGISTER
was mentioned, he then turned his
attention to throwing mud at some OF
the local leaders Of the Democratic
party, among whom were Gen. Alfred
Caldwell, Hon. r. 5. Riley, Julius Pol
lock and Hon. J. B. Wilson. He SEEM
more particularly incensed against
Caldwell, Riley and the REGISTER than
the others.
When Mr. Whitaker spoke OF Gen.
Caldwell he became very angry, pranc'
ing around, stamping his feet and
gestulating wildly all the while. De
said Mr.. Caldwell was an Insignificant,
malignant, disreputable hanger-on OF
the Democratic party, who wallowed in
the gutter and threw mud al his
suoeriors. That Riley was under
