ITS FATE SEALED.
The House Steps on Secretary
CarIisIe's Financial Bill.
Refuses to Adopt Rule to Limit De-
bate and Vote Saturday
Mr.. Springer Not Discouraged and Hopes to
Pass Amended Bill.

consideration of the currency bill. IN
quiries were made by Bcltzhooyer and
Bland as to the status of the amendment
the former proposes to offer authorizing
the sale of $500 00o,00 bonds and the
substitute of which the latter had given
notice, providing foEthc free coinage of
silver at a ratio of n to l. They were in
formed by Cultivate that the resolution
did not favor nor discriminate against
any amendment or Substitute; they would
all stand on their merits and be subject to
the rules of the House.
Bland wanted Outhwaitc to agree that
he (Blanti) should have an opportunity to
offer his free coinage amendment and
have it voted upon. Cultivate declined
to enter into any arrangement respecting
the Bland substitute or other amendment
In response to a question by Reed,
Cultivate said the object of the resolu-
ton was to bring to a conclusion within
a reasonable time, the consideration of
the currency bill which has been before
the House for nearly two weeks. Great
appropriation bills remained to be acted
upon, only one, and that the smallest,
having yet passed the Senate, and the
committee on rules Were being daily be
sieged by the friends Of the Nicaragua
canal BILL Pacific Railroad refunding bill,
anG other vastly important measures, for
time for their consideration The rule
granted ample time for the consideration
of the bill under the five minute rule.
Reed said the situation seemed to him
unfortunate, in that probably nothing
would save the bill, and the House was
discussing the best method of getting rid
of it. That would prevent the House
from passing any remedial legislation
whatever The resolution before the
House tended to further compliCate the
question and made any righteous conclu-
sion impossible. The suggestion of Mr.
Dingley that the state bank sections be
first considered and then matters of detail,
struck him as a good one. The Rcpublt
cans, he said, We're not responsible for the
and he did not know they should
interfere in the matter at all, and it was
a question upon which he had serious
doubts whether anything should be done
on that side of the House. He would
suggest to the gentleman from Ohio
(Outhwaite) that before bringing the
resolution to vote of the House, he con-
sent 80 modification of its terms to per
nit discussion upon that most important
part of the bill.
Cultivate demanded the previous
question on the passage of the rcsolu-
ton The vote upon Outhfwaites demand
was: Ayes, %; noes, 101. \ vote by
yeas and nays was demanded by Outh
waite and resulted: yeas, 1874; nays, 1870.
