Silver Bullion in the Treasury to
Be Made Into Small
Coins
FOR REDEMPTION OF THE NOTES
Chambers Scheme to Establish a
Standard in Connection With
Other Nations.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 5.-Two
important financial measures were intro
duced in the Senate to-day and were re-
ferred to the Committee on Finance. The
first was introduced by Mills Cd. } of Texas.
1t provides for the coinage of the silver
bullion now in the treasury into half dol
lars, quarters and dimes, and provides
that when the gold reserve exceeds $780,
100000 legal tender notes presented for
payment may be redeemed in silver or
gold, at the discretion of the Secretary of
the r ury, but when the gold reserve is
belo tn hundred millions legal tender
notes III st be redeemed in standard silver
dollars.
The second measure was introduced by
Chandler (R.) of New Hampshire. Its
title is ''to provide, in connection with
other nations, for the unlimited coin
age OF gold and silver at the ratio OF l to
1917" If it becomes law it is only to
take effect and become operative when
similar laws shall have been adopted by
the Governments of England, France and
Germany.
A resolution declaring it unwise and in
expedient to retire the greenback was
offered by Gallinger (R.) of New Hamp-
shire, and was similarly referred.
A resolution was offered by Gail CD Of
Florida and was agreed to, calling on the
Secretary of State for all correspondence
relating to the trial, conviction and sem
tence of General Sanguilly, an American
citizen, for alleged completely in the war
against Cuba.
1pf 10
by Call for the recognition of Cuban revo-
lutionists as belligerents was referred to
the Committee on Foreign Relations, after
speech in which Call spoke of the man
her in which the war is carried on by
Spain as ''merciless," and declared that if
such condition of Things were permitted
by the American Government the affiTma-
ton OF the Monroe doctrine was vain and
carried with it no weight or respect.
Dubois (R) of Idaho offered his reso-
luton to amend the rules so as to divide
the appropriation pills among the COM
mittees having charge of the general SUBJ
iect, and it was laid on the table to be
called up hereafter.
A protest from the Legislature of
Montana against the issue of Government
bonds was presented by Mantle (R.) of
Montana.
Mitchell (R.) of Oregon offered resolu-
ton which was agreed to, calling on the
Secretary of the Treasury for report as
to whether any steps have been taken to
procure plans for public building in
Portland, Or, for which appropriations
were made in 1891 and 1895; and if not,
why not.
At 1:35 P. M, the Senate adjourned until
Monday next.

Dental of the Story That Demands Had
Been WithdrdlUn.

LONDON, Eng, Dec. g. The Daily
News will tomorrow publish dispatch
from Constantinople denying the rumors

drawn their demands. The dispatch says

termined to carry out their demands to q
successful termination. The Sultan has

tinues his stubborn attitude forced en-
trance through the Dardanelles will posi-
bly, be made.
The dispatch adds that a massacre has
taken place at Hassan Kales, twenty
miles east of Erzeroum. The Armenian
monastery there was sacked and burned
and the Bishop, vicar and other inmates
killed.
At a meeting of the Anglo-American So
ciety to-day letter was read from Mr..

eve still have some hope in the indisposi-
ton of the powers to make themselves
ridiculous before the world"
