The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1895-01-10

Carlisle bill in the House, said after the
test vote against the bill: 81 will make
no effort to take up the bill again this
week. 1t would be well for the House 10
turn its attention to other business, and
then, after rest from the financial debate.
IL may be made apparent that a majority
will support the bill. [ do not think the
adverse vote on the rule puts an end to all
curt ency legislation. So far as | am con-
cerned, shall con tinue to press the subject
un;il some thing is accomplished"
1t is understood that the Committee On
Rules anticipated the possibility of such a
vote as the House gave today and had
tacltly agreed TO drop The currency bill IL
1t met with the rebuff it has.
Secretary Carlisle remained in the
Speakers private Office an hour comforting
with House leaders on the effect of tina re-
verse suffered by the currency bill. Be-
sides MIR. Carlisle and Mr.. Crisp there
we're present: Messrs. Catchings and
Cultivate of the Rules Committee
Springer. who had been In charge of lbe
bill; Hall of the Currency Committee and
Tucker of Virginia. The talk partook
somewhat in the nature of a conference
as 10 what course of action should be mr.
sued in view of the unexpected turn of
affairs. Mr.. Carlisle maintained his usnal
composure and gave no indication that he
felt rather chagrined. On the contrary
he spoke ioculary of Representative Sib-
ley's sensational speech yesterday and
said he would like to know whom he had
''bribed with Revenue Collectorship. as
Sibley bad alleged.
The Secretary expressed regret that the
rule had been defeated and he shared the
opinion of others present that the defeat
closed the prospects of the bill in is
present form. The result was a surprIss
to him, for the Secretary had not shared
the doubts of the House leaders I'D to the
time of the vote. He expected amend.
ments would be suggested that would
overcome the opposition of certain ele-
ments and make the passing of the bill
possible. Mr.. Carlisle agrees with the
House leaders that il was desirable TO lei
the bill rest for a time. He did not sug-
gest any new measure or any material
change in the bill. 1t appeared to be his
idea, however. that efforts should be Ill
rected toward learning the objections of
those democrats WHO DdQ VOteQ against
the rule in order that these objections
might be overcome il possible.
After the conference Mr.. Springer said
that, while some concessions might be
made in the interest OF harmony, yet no
concession could be made on the basis of
giving the silver men everything thew
wanted.
'If Mr.. Bland and his friends will not
give US their assistance, except on condi-
ton of silver at ratio of Is to 1, then
they must shoulder the responsibility of
the defeat of all legislation. as no such
compromise is possible"
Representative Bland, the exponent of
the silver element oil the House, who aided
in the defeat Of the rule, said tonight:
1.-THE vote undoubtedly means the aban-
donment of all hope to pass the Carlisle
bill in its present form. But it Is too soon
To say 1t ends the possibility of any legisla-
ton by this Congress. As long as the
effort is made TO give monopoly to
national banks and exclude silver. the
plan will be found. There may yet be
time TO frame measure adequate for the
