SILVER MEN ON TOP.
Friends of silver have a majority of
the senate finance committee and in their
stronghold will prevent the passage of
any measure interfering with their inter
ests. Only the most moderate tariff
amendments for revenue purposes can
pass both houses, and even their fate is
doubtful.
THE DENVER MINT.
Secretary Carlisle, in his statement sent
to congress yesterday, recommends an
appropriation of 100000 to continue
work under the present limit, during
the next fiscal year, on the new Denver
mint.
PLANS OF THE POPS.
In an interview Senator PETER said
that the Populists will vote as a unit on
all party questions. With regard to the
reorganization of the senate they will not
decide their policy until the matter is
presented by the Republicans. In cur
rency questions the Populists will take
no steps until the presidents recommen-
dation on the retirement of the green
backs is presented. In taxation and rev.
enue measures, the program of the Popu-
lists in the house will be not to present
any measures, but to present amend
ments.
On foreign questions the Populists will
stand for the consonance of the govern
ments on the western hemisphere, and
while not advocating an aggressive policy
of interference will insist on the mainte-
nance of the Monroe doctrine. They will
express sympathy for Cuba, and in re-
gard to the Hawaiian question will de-
eide what stand to take when the subject
is presented in the senate. Senator PETER
said that personally he favored protec-
torate rather than annexation.
The senator said he had prepared TWEEN
ty-one bills for introduction in the senate.
The first will be the bill curtailing the
cost of congressional funerals.
The Populists in congress have sent
circular letter to all the Democratic and
members who have been
known to favor free coinage to meet
with them in conference on the currency
