WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec. 21.-(Spe-
clal.) John X. Morris had an inter
view of three-quarters OF an hour with
the President. AS he was taking the
train for Baltimore he reluctantly told
me something the President said rela-
tive to- the present situation. Fearing
lest what he said might not be used
with perfect accuracy, ! committed
the words of the President to him TO
writing and he confirmed them. Mr..
Morris said, that the President was
very earnest in all he had to say, es-
pecialIy touching the Venezuelan situ-
alton.
His position on this continued
Mr. Morris, was unenvable. but his
sense of justice nevertheless seems to
be the dominating principle actuating
him. He believes he is right. He has
been a great student of this Monroe
doctrine and he understands it.
Concerning the work of the com
mission the President said: 1 want to
know where Justice rests in this mat

are wrong then we will drop the
whole matter

If he could receive proper cooperation

The President spoke kindly of Sem

here at this time; and the President
added touching Ransom: He is such
wise counsellor and concilator.'

on gold basis. 1t was the inherent
strength of n nation that won yicto-

Let the President once announce
that United States obligations will be
paid in silver and there will he no
further raids on the treasury. If Lon
don wants financial war, let as meet
it ="
Mr.. Dubois (Rep., Idaho) said nc re-
GREETED that the President had felt
called on to send in such a financial
message at this time. The President
must know that he cannot accomplish
either a retirement Of the greenbacks
or the authorization of bonds The
only possible result would be to pre-
cipitate a tariff agitation. And. so far
as financial legislation is concerned
the country should understand as
every Senator here understands. that
as soon as the Senate had an oppor-
tunity it would adopt the resolution
offered to-day by Mr.. Vest to coin sill
yer bullion and pay government obli-
cations in silver. Senators knew this
measure would be adopted If brought
to a vote. The country should know
it. The opposition TO the measure
would seek to obstruct il and prevent
its passage. Mr.. Dubois referred to
the hopeless situation presented by
the Presidents message,a situation inn
possible to be remedied by immediate
legislation, as the President and every
man conversant with public affairs
was we'll aware.
At t:45. on motion of Mr. Faulkner
(Dem.. West Virginia. the Senate adj
iourned until next Tuesday.
EXECUTIVE SESSION.
WASHINGTON. Dee 21-The SEN

over the nomination of Gen Coppinger
TO be Brigadier General, upon an ex-
PLANTATION that the Committee on Mill
tary Affairs, to which the nomination
had been referred, had been unable to
properly consider the nomination. The
delay on this nomination caused the
postponement of action upon a large
number of army promotions, made in
consequence of Gen. COppinger's nomi-
nati0n.
