Washington, July 1S.--The statement
by Representative Baker of New
Hampshire that he had been erron-
eously reported by the tellers as pres
ent and not voting, the truth being
that he was not present, moved MIR.
Reed to say a word for the system Of
quorum counting in the Fifty-firnt
congress, wherein. he said out OF
hundreds OF opportunities but two mis-
takes had occurred. while out of two
opportunities under the existing system
one error had occurred.
Speaker Crisp admitted the posi-
bIllty of error under any system, but
pointed out that the superiority claim
ed for the present rule was that 1t re-
moved any suspicion OF intentional I'M
fairness Under the special order
adopted on Monday the remainder Of
the day was devoted to business re-
ported from the committee on mill
tary affairs Bills were passed TO reg
ulate enlistments in the army, to au-
thorize the board of managers of the
soldiers home to transfer and main
tain the inmates Of any branch In
case of emergency; to place Major
General John l.. Green on the retired
list as first lieutenant; Eugene Wells
as second lieutenant; Napoleon j. Dana
as assistant quartermaster; Dunbar X.
Ransom as captain; Charles Il. StiveFs
as captain, and James w. Albert was
made major. At b:i5 the house ad-
journed.

washington. July 1s.-Mr. Preston,
the director OF the mint. today, by di-
rectlon of the secretary of the treas
ury, issued orders that mint authorl-
ties In San Francisco and New Orleans
begin at once the coinage Of silver
dollars. and during the present month
to coin up TO the ordinary capacities OF
the mints. The silver to be first coined
will be blanks and ingots. OF which
there is sufficient to coin about 81 ,b0O.-
600 at these two mints and at Phil
adelphia As soon as this supply Is ex-
hausted work will probably begin on
the silver bars. Of which there is
years supply at San Francisco and
New orleans and probably years
supply at Philadelphia. So far as can
be learned It is not the purpose OF the
government to extend the coinage OF
selgniorage beyond few millions. but
II is stated that after-coiping with the
gold may be necessary and recolning
the abraded fractional silver. each OF
the three minis probably win be work
ed at their normal capacity on silver
dollars for the next several months
at least, and presumably to the end
OF the present calendar year. Whether
treasury notes Will be retired as fast
as received for silver, so far as known,
"a not determined.

only DESTROYS OF a pacific solution OF
the differences between the two coun-
tries
A diplomat familiar with eastern AFT
fairs said that an expression Of the
dissatisfaction felt by this government
in the manner indicated would not af-
feet the future action OF the Japanese
government. One effect, however,
might be that should Il be concluded
to submit the differences now existing
between the two nations to arbitration
the United stptes might not be asked
to serve. as would probably have been
the case otherwise. Nc news on the
matter could be had from members of
the Chinese legation.
Members OF ;he house committee on
foreign affairs deny that feature OF
the story which says they have seen
the Gresham dispatches Chairman
McCreery, Hit, and Representative
Raynor said they had seen no such dis
patch and knew of no action In that
line. and Senator Gray and other menu
bers OF the senate foreign relations
committee likewise said they knew
nothing Of the matter.
