WASHINGTON, March The long
struggle in the house over the Bland bill
for the coinage of the silver seigniorage
and the silver bullion in the treasury
was ended today by the passage of the
bill by a vote of 16S TO 10 a majority in
favor of the bill of thirty-nine. The
special order to bring the bill to a. vote
was adopted by bare quorum imme-
diately after the house convened. This
broke the opposition of the filibusterers
and they We're powerless to do anything
further To place an obstacle in the way
of the bill
All the amendments offered 10 the
measure by its opponents were de-
feated. the one which p0lled the most
votes being Mr.. Outhwaite's amendment
to strike out the second section. The
bill as passed was in the nature of a
substitute for the original text of the
measure The changes do not affect the
material features Of the BILL which pro-
vides for the coinage of the silver
seigniorage in the treasury, the issue of
silver certificates thereon, if need be. in
the discretion Of the secretary Of the
treasury in advance of the coinage. and
thereafter the coinage of the remainder
Of the bullion as fast as practicable and
the issue of silver certificates thereon to
take the place of the treasury notes is
sued under the Sherman act. which are
TO be retired and cancelled as rapidly
as the coinage takes place. The changes
made in the substitute simply make
specific the fact that the seigniorage is
to be coined and that this bill shall not
affect the redemption of the treasury
notes under existing law
I'm analysis of the vote by which the
bill passed shows that 14 democrats.
nineteen republicans and eight popuIists
total 1851 voted for it, and seventy-nine
republicans and fifty democrats total
129 voted against it.
The first section of the substitute is
identical with the first section Of the
original bill except that the coinage IS
10 proceed as fast as possible instead of
practicable" The substitution for the
second section reads: After the COIN
age provided for in the first section Cthe
seigniorage) the remainder of the silver
bullion purchased in pursuance of the
act of July II. 1890. shall be coined into
legal tender, standard silver dollars as
far as possible and the coin shall 1e
held for redemption of the treasury notes
issued against such bullion. As fast as
the bullion shall be coined for the re-
demption of said notes the notes shall not
be reissued. but shall be Cancelled in
amounts equal 10 coin held. derived from
coinage herein provided for and silver
certificates shall be issued on such coin
provided for by law. providing that the
act shall not be construed to change eX-
isting law relating to legal tender char
acter or mode of redemption Of existing
treasury notes under the act of 1890 A
sufficient sum Of money is appropriated
to carry into effect the provisions of the
act.

SMALL BUT EFFECTIVE,

Was the little Monitor that met the Merri-
mac at Hampton Roads. So too are DIR.
Pierceis Pleasant Pellets, effective in conquer
ing the enemy-disease. When you take a
pill it's an important point to have them
small-provided they have equal strength
and efficacy. You find what you want in
these little liver pills of DR.. Pierce. They're
put up in a better way, and they act in a
better way, than the huge old-fashioned pills
What you want when you're "all out of
sorts grumpy, thick-headed and take a
gloomy view of life, is these Pellets to clear
up your system and start your liver into
healthful action. Sick Headache, Bilious
Headache, Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all arrangements of the liver,
stomach and bowels, are prevented, relieved,
and cured. Put up in sealed glass walls, and
always fresh and reliable.

VILLAGE BANK ROBBERY.
Assistant Cashier Knocked ScDscIeSs
and $4,000 Taken.

DEXTER. Mich. March 1.--At 1870
this morning two masked robbers got
away with about $300O taken from the
vault of the Dexter savings bank, leav
ing o. c. Gregory, the assistant cashier
lying stunned inside the vault. Mr..
Gregory had just swept the Office and
was carrying out the dust when he was
confronted by a couple of masked men
who poked revolvers in his face and
threatened to blow out his brains if he
uttered a cry. He was at once COM
PEELED to open the vault at the points
of two cooked revolvers. The safe in
side the vault is furnished with a time
lock of more than ordinary ingenuity.
1t runs twelve hours and nobody ever
supposed there would be an attempt to
open the safe in broad daylight. But
it had run down, and while one man
held Mr.. Gregory the other seized the
money in the drawer. Their next act
was to knock Gregory SenseleSs, then
closing the vault door upon the PROSTATE
clerk. the thieves made their escape.
Writ Newkirk, the cashier, arrived at
the bank at o'clock. On opening the
vault door he found his assistant
stretched out on the floor, apparently
lifeless and $4,000 missing In a few
hours Gregory recovered his senses. but
is still dazed and nervous. He said he
was badly frightened when the robbers
confronted him, but hoped the time lock
would save the cash. No suspicion is
attached to Gregory, who is an ex-
emplary young man.
Cashier Newkirk said tonight: Il
came down to the bank at O'Clock. The
door was locked | unlocked Ii and was
inside about five minutes before opening
the vault Upon opening it I found my
assistant insensble on the floor | set
the time lock at about 7i5 last night
I think that when / reached the front
door the burglars were still inside. be
cause the money was scattered over
the floor with other valuables, which
they were evidently about to draw from
the inner safe. The silver money they
took weighed about twenty-five pounds
and was done up in coin wrappers. We
have no clew whatever
Cashier Newkirk said he thought that
no more than $4,000 had been taken by
the robbers No strangers were seen to
enter or leave the village last night or
this morning.

He DENIES IT.
The Rev. Nyron Reed Snys Hr Docs
Not Belong tn the 4. y. =.

The Rev Myron Reed. formerly of this
city. but now of Denver, returned the
other day from a visit to the South to
find that he had been enrolled during his
absence on the roster of the local \. r.
\. In an interview he emphatically de-
MED any connection or sympathy with
the order, and gave his opinion Of it in
the following language:
There's always Il class of people that
live by stirring up these troubles.
They're the fellows YOU never find going
TO the front They're the takers.
I've been thinking of all this a good
deal lately. / see the same old trouble
cropping up again i'm a new form and I
want TO see it stamped out at once.
Il mean this ~ +. A. business. It's
all wrong. It's based on a false PROPOSE
tion in the first place, and it's bad from
beginning TO end. 1 am first, last and all
the time against \. p. Aism As a
general rule we ought to avoid these
oath-bound orders. all of them. Let the
people stop getting apart TO grumble
about their neighbors' shortcomings.
Let them get together and settle things,

Take this A. p ~ agitation now is
there anybody that really believes its
twaddle about the catholic church Why
some of the best citizens | know in
Denver are catholics. Can anyone
imagine them working for the subVertinG
of American institutions or even per-
hitting others to do so?
Yes, I've seen the lists Of the A. p.
A. members published that have simply
astonished me. There's Kerr B. Topper,
a splendid fellow; how did he get in
there? And there's a good many others.
too, that surely haven't stopped to con-
slider the facts. Just one piece Of our
history ought to make them pause a bit.
Let those A. p. As pick up their con-
stitutiOn of Jhe United States and look
at the glorious bill of rights. NObler
sentiments were never expressed. Where
did the come from? Most people say
from jefferson. They're half right; he
suggested them for the constitution.
But where did he get them? From the
old colony of Maryland-the only catho-
lie member of the original thirteen.
While our distinguished Puritan an
cestors were burning the Quakers and
the baptists right and left, the Roman
ist of Maryland was nobly granting not
religious tolerance, but religious free
dom To all over whom he had authority.
What does our A. p. a. say to that?'

The Debt The Mississippi People Owe
The Press.

A well known Mississippian discuss
ing the political situation with the
Picayounc's correspondent at Jackson,
says.
"The people Of Mississippi owe its
press debt of grltitude which they
can never repay. Back in 1875 the
press did more to rid the State OF the
misrule of a vicious and corrupt
horde of alien politicians aided and
abetted by the negroes and local
white men who had been found will
ing to sell their birthright for mess
of pottage. Year after year since that
time the press of this State has cried
aloud and spared not when the public
veal was threatened. Notably was
this the case in 1872, when the green
back craze swept over the State, and
again during the subtreasury cam
paign of 1891, when it crucitled one OF
its own former shining lights who had
embraced the heresy, and made Sem
ator Georges election possible. No
less is it true of the press in the cam
paign which has now successfully
closed The press has not only work.

party, which means the best interest

press Of Mississippi, the hard worked.
poorly paid, bright honest, manly ex-
ponents of public sentiment have

for a glorious Democratic victory next

governor to constable, Including a
legislature which will elect a United
States senator, are to be chosen"
