prrRPoNT MORGAN. at the latecritical
,ncture, John G. Carlisle, secretary of
i . treasury, and David B. Hill, who
orld seem to be the last man likely to
lave such information. There has
%een good deal of speculation as to
10 nresident's intentions in the matter,
Znd the determination he arrives at
r;u have considerable effect on the
,onetary and business situation, which
one reason why the field of inquiry
las been narrowed. The fact that
<bese men know so much about it and
rbv has leaked out, in view of the
becessity Of taking numbers of persons
INTO the general confidence, SO many
interests being concerned.
It seems that when Mr.. Morgan and
&be president talked the financial stu
ation over, the question of the attitude
n the last and present congresses had
u be considered. The financisrs were
hinder some apprehension that in case
HE new congress were called in a hurry
land for time Mr.. Cleveland was
rumored TO have some such purpose
the general confusion would further
bnsettle the country's finances. There
aupon Mr., Carlisle was called in and the
three men arrived at a tacit under
Standing that no step of the sort would
be taken until autumn at least and
probably not then. Mr.. Hill, mean
while, had been very anxious to hurry
action during the last congress in order
that the situation of the party might
be improved before the country, and it
WAS minated that there would be no
extra session. The intimation was con-
yeyed to him i'm acknowledgment of
his expressed intention to help the ad-
|ministration in every possible way on
the floor of the senate.
Now these understandings were not
made known at the time because the
situation had not, SO to speak, sim
mered down, and every one was talk
ing Of a speedy convocation of the
Fifty-fourth congress. But moments
thought convinced the financiers that
an extra session would set the pot boil
ing all over again. In London, where
the matter was thoroughly understood,
some anxiety was caused on this point
and the RothschildS cabled over here,
as is now well known in Wall street,
for information. They got reply to
the effect that no extra session was
likely, and that is the reason they
doomed the loan so heavily when the
public subscriptions were opened. This
explains what is still puzzle to many,
namely, the fact that in spite of the
doleful views of this country's finan-
cial standing, the bonds should have
shot up TO such an enormous premium
in night and actually have outdis-
taueed British consols in the British
capital
The one fact remains, therefore, that
the administration has no intention of
bringing congress to the capital until
the late autumn, and in all probability
not then That is where Mr.. Cleveland
expects to have his triumph.

When asked if his Judgment was the
result of experience, DR.. Depew said:
Eyes, l have heard women talk at
Sorosis, at dinners political, charitable,
reform dinners, dramatic dinners, din
ners of every conceivable kind, and
after them all my advice still is: Don't
do it. Among themselves they are well
enough, but in mixed dinner party
they seem out of place.
"They are not in touch with their
audiences nor in accord with the spirit
of the occasion. After-dinner speaking
belongs to the hour of good-fellowship.
A woman doesn't fit into the surround
ings when seen through clouds of
smoke. She doesn't catch the mood of
