The latter made no sign, but Ryan In an

little shocked at it. Stepping away, still
with his hands up. he said: "Doglan. you

Doolan made n reply other than to rnsh

BERlNG SEA BILL.

1t IL to he Advanced in the House
Without Delay.
The Bering sea bill will be slipped through
to legislation. Secretary Gresham was be-
fore the House committee on foreign affairs
yesterday to urge the desirabili.y of speedy
action. The Senate had just passed the bill
presented by Mr.. Morgan, and IN the opin-
ion of the Secretary this bill covered the
case and time could be saved by the i'm
mediate adoption by the House The House
to report the Senate bill.
Chairman McCreary then arranged to set
the bill before the House at the earliest
to recognize Mr.. McCreary on the bill as
soon as the pending election case was out
of the way. 1t was also arranged with
Representative Bland that his move to pass
the seigniorage bill over the veto would
give way long enough to pass the Bering
sea bill. This appears to make tie speedy
passage of the bill certain, yet Mr.. Nc
Creary fears the unanimous consent of the
House, necessary for advancing the BILL
may not be secured. In that event he is
prepared to secure a special rule from the
rules committee making the i6eriny sea
bill the immediate order of business.
Secretary Gresham's talk with the COM
mittee did not indicate any uneasiuess as
to the satisfactory close OF the negotiations
with Great Britain He looked upon it
as desirable, however, that this country
should fully execute the award Of the Paris
court of arbitration, as it could then be
better able to insist that the other rarity to
the arbitration should fully live up to the
award

PITTSBURG, Pa. April A cold rain
has set in. and with only a miserable cam
vas to protect them from the weather, the
commonwealers sit grouped around camp
fires. playing cards. reading and generally
amusing themselves, but no signs Of dis
content are visible. The determination Of
continuing the march to Washington. D..
c.. is as strong as ever. The report that
DIR. Kirkland, Weary" Isler and Jasper
Johnston were going to leave the army
for the dime museum platform has been
positively denied at headquarters.
This morning Mrs. VIM. Penney appear
ed at camp and contributed $40 several
blankets, a great number of cooking uten-
sils and lot Of clothing. AS result of
the last named article many of the men
presented quite respectable appearance.
The camp is surrounded by line CT AL
legheny police, and none are allowed either
to enter or depart, officers and newspaper
men excepted. Up to the present time
thirty-three men have enrolled themselves
under the commonweal standard, and many
more are waiting to be allowed to pass the
lines to do the same.
Coxey and Brown are now speaking to
large crowds. The people are very elthus-
iastic, and the petition now has several
thousand signers. The leaders are highly
pleased and encouraged by the reception
received here and express themselves hope
fully Of the future. The army will not
move from it's present camp until tomorrow
morning, wnen the march will be taken up
to White Hall. Everything Is quiet and or
derly about camp, and the fears Of the
police are being radiply allayed.
In addition to the various bodies OF men
who have started from places in the west
for Washington. New York and Phla-
delphia will send several regiments.
Christopher Columb bus Jones Of the latter
city says that 1000 men have promised to
make the march, and the route far as

LOUISIANA SENATORS.
Two Vacancies to BE Filled and q
Lively Contest Likely.

Lively Contest Likely.
When the Louisiana legislature meets
next month 1t will be confronted with the
duty of electing two members to the United
States Senate The elections promise to be
hotly contested, there are four promi-
nent candidates in the field The vacancies
were created by the death Of Senators
Gibson in the early part of last year. and
by the recent appointment of SeDator White
to the bench Of the Supreme Court of the
United States. The present Senators from
louisiana, Messrs. Caffery and Blan-
chard. hold office by virtue of appointment
by the governor. and they are making a
strong fight to be elected by the legislature.
JoE as and Representative G. j. Boatner,
and it is generally understood that they
will prove very formidable competitors.
Mr.. Jonas is a resident of New orleans, a
very able lawyer by profession, and is
backed by the sold business element of
that city. On expiration of his senatorial
term in 1885, he was appointed collector
Of the port Of New Orleans by Mr.. Cleve-
land.
Mr.. Boatner, who now represents the
fifth Louisiana district in the House, is
we'll known in Washington having al
ways taken a prominent part in all legis-
lation concerning Louisiana, and his re-
cent strong opposition in the House to the
placing of sugar on the free list doubtless
gained for him a strong support from the
sugar men of his state.
Senator Catfery has double fight on his
hands The term of his predecessor, the
late Senator Gibson, would have expired in
March, 1895, and, on Mr.. Gibsons death
in January 1893. Mr.. Caffery was appointed
by the governor during the recess of the
legislature. Thus the coming election in
his case Is first for the unaXpired term
ending next March, and then for the full
term succeeding, ending in March, 1901.
Mr.. Caffery is candidate fer both terms.
On the other hand, the term of Judge
White senator would not have expired
until March. 1897, and Mr.. Blancharjs sue
ccssor will now be chosen by the legislature
for that period. 1t is not likely that there
will be an election to fill the seat for the
six years following March 4, 1897, at this
session of the legislature.

SILVER AND THE TARIFF
Not Likely to Pass the Seigniorage Bill
Over the Veto.
Advocates of the Tariff bill Afraid
That 1t Cannot he Passed Since
Recent Republican Victories.

aSome of the silver men are alarmed now
oy indications that they may not get as
many votes to pass the seigniorage bill over
the Presidents veto as they got on the bill
originally. 1t is said that several members
VINO voted for the bill have intmated that
they will not vote for it again.
The message is to come up in the House
as soon as quorum can be had to COM
plete the seating of Mr.. English, in spite of
the desires of his constituents. The more
conservative silver men would like to have
the previous question called to the motion
to pass the bill over the veto so as to cut
off debate. but there are many who want to
talk, and 1t is expected that day or two
will be consumed in debate, during which
the administration will be attacked with
energy.
A Free Coinage Bill.
There Is not the least hope for the silver
men that they can pass the bill over the
Veto 1t is Bland's intention to report a
free coinage bill from his committee very
soon after this matter is disposed of. I'm
der the rules his committee can report and
ton or consideration can be raised against
him, and doubts are entertained, even by
his own people, whether they can get a
strong enough vote to take free COMA ge
bill up at this session.
Fears for the Tariff Bill.
The sweeping republican victories at the
local elections within the past two days
cause considerable apprehension on the
part Of the advocates of the tariff bill.
There is considerable doubt as to the effect
upon the bill. Its advocates are more than
ever anxious to secure speedy action on
the measure, feeling that the delay and un-
certainty as to the legislation is largely
responsible for the public dissatisfaction
with the democratic party. On the other
hand, those democrats who are opposed to
the bill charge the dissatisfaction agains st
the proposed legislation itself, and are
liable to be streng gthened in their opposi-
tion. The republicans, who have been di-
vided in opinion as to how far they should
go in obstruction of the bill in the Senate,
are likely to be united in a determination
to resist to the last ditch. feeling assured
that their people are more interested in
having the bill beaten than they are in
having the uncertainty quickly relieved.
