who would seem TO be the last man likely
to have such information. There has
been good deal OF speculation as to the

dence, so many interests being concerned
1t seems that when Mr.. Morgan and
the president talked the financial Stun
ton over, the question of the attitude OF
the last and the present congresses had
TO be considered. The fnanciers were
under some apprehension that in case
the new congress were called in a hurry
and for n time Mr. Cleveland was rt-
tnoreu TO have some such purpose-.he
general confusion would further unsettle
the country's finances. Thereupon, Mr..
Carlisle was called in and the three mon
arrived at n tacit understanding that no
step OF the sort would bc taken until
autumn at least, and probably not then.
Mr.. Hill, meanwhile, had been very anx.
ious to hurry action during the last coa-
gress in Order that the situation of the
party might be improved before tho coun-
try, and it was intimated to him that
there would be no extra session. This in
tlmation was conveyed to him in ac-
knowiedSenent of his expressed intcn-
uon TO help the administration in every
possible way on the floor of the senate.
Now these understandings were not
made known at the time because the situ-
ation had not, so TO speak. snmered
down. and every one was talking of
speedy convocation of the 5ith congress.
But n moments thought convinced the
nnanciers that an extra session would set
the pot boiling all over again. In Lon.

understood. some anxiety was caused on

premium in night and actually have out
