WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-In the House
today Mr.. Cultivate reported a reso-
luton from the committee on rules to
govern the heftutherconsideration of the
currency bill. It provides for the sub
stitution Of the amended bill proposed
By Mr.. Stringer. December 20 last, for
the pending bill, that it be considered
under the five-minute rule. unless dis
posed of. until $50 o'clock Friday and
Immediately after the expiration Of the
morning hour on Saturday the vote on
pending amendments and the passage
of the bill shall be taken.
Mr.. Dingley Rep of Maine. sugges-
ted to Mr. Outhwaitc that inodliica-
ton to be emade III the rule, 50 as to per-
nit the House first to consider sections
8 and 10 Of the bill relating to State
banks. for il they were not to be reha-
bilitated the House might change tpe
details contained in the earlier sections
This suggestion was reinforced by Mr..
Walker Rep Of Massachusetts,, who
said It was made in the Interest Of eX-
pediting business.
Mr.. Cultivate said the gentleman as
sumed that the time was to be wasted.
ii it was not wasted. the sections named
would be reached before the order eN-
pired..
INQUIRIES were made by 1Iessrs..
Bel,zhoover Dem. OF Pennsylvania,
and Bland Dem OF Missouri, as to
the status of the amendment the form
er proposed 70 offer. authorizing the
sale Of $500. 0O9, 900 of bonds and the
Substitute. of which the latter had Civ
en- notice. providing for the free coin
age of silver at the ratio CT IL to l.
They were informed by 4,ir. Outh-
waite that the resolution did not favor
nor discriminate against any amend
ment or substitute: they would all
stand on their merits and be subject to
the rules of the House.
Mr.. Bland wanted Mr. Outhwaite to
agree before he would vote for the rule
tIet he Mr.. BlanO should havean OPP
portunity to offer his free coinage
amendmentand have it voted upon. If
that were done ne should have no OBJ
lection to the adoption Of the resolu-
ton. otherwise the probabilities were
that he would never have an opportu-
nity to present his proposition.
Mr.. Outhwaite declinedto enter into
any arrangement respecting the Bland
substitute or any other amendment.
In response tc question by Mr..
Reed, Mr.. Cultivate said the object
of the resolution was to bring to a con-
clusion within reasonable time, the
consideration Of the currency bill
which had been before the House now
for nearly two weeks, already suffi-
cient period of time, considering that
the Congress was now IN the short
session. The great appropriations re-
main to be acted upon-only one, and
that the smallest, having yet passed
the Senate and the committee on rules
is being daily beseiged by the friends
of the Nicaragua Canal bill, the Paclf-
ic Railroad refunding bill, and other
vastly important measures, for time for
their consideration. The rule grants
ample time for the consideration Of the
bill under the five minute rule.
Mr.. Reed said the situation seemed to
him to be an unfortunate one, in that
probably nothing would save the bill,
and the House was discussing the best
method of getting rid of it. Mr.. Reed
suggested to Mr.. Cultivate that be-
fore bringing the resolution to a vote
of the House, he consent to a modl1-
cation of It's terms so as to permit
discussion first upon the most lmpor-
tant part of the bill.
After further brief remarks by Outh-
waite, Bland and Beltzhoover, the for
mer demanded the previous question
on the passage of the resolution.
Mr.. Bland: If the demand for the
previous question is voted down, the
resolution will be open to amendment!
Speaker Crisp: If the question lsre-
fused.
