Washington, Feb. 19.-In speech on
the financial situation today, Senator
Villas said:
IF the drain had not been checked
by the announcement Of the bond con-
tract, we should have been thrown to q
silver basis or to suspension of specie
payments"
And he declared that the president
had been doubtful whether he would
be able to hold on for another day. Few
persons had been aware of the peril,
but there were some Who appreciated
1t, and he read the following telegram
from Buchanan, United States minister
at Argentine, to show that the English
bankers understood the situation:
"Buenos Ayres, Feb. 4th, 1895.

THEIR HANDS GO UP
Senate Silver Men Let Go for

a RESOLUTION FROM wALcoTT
Thinks the Silver Issue Should be
Laid Aside for thhe Balance of
Session,
Associated Press.

Washington, Feb. 19.-At o'clock to-
night the senate adjourned after de-
termined but fruitless effort on the
part of the silver men, led by Jones
# Arkansas, to pass bill for unre-
stricted coinage of silver Jones him
elf made a motion to adjourn, after
had been made evident that the vot-
ng quorum of senators could not be
leld in the chamber for an all night
truggle.
One of the surprises Immediately pre-
ceeding the adjournment was a resolu,
.un submitted by Wolcott, one of the
.lost active of the silver leaders, de-
arlng that while the welfare of the
country required unlimited coinage Of
silver at 16 to 1 ratio, yet in view Of
the near adjournment of congress, and
he pressing demands of appropriation
oilla it was inexpedient to enter upon
The consideration of the silver bill at
the present session of congress.
No action was taken on the resolution
put it was regarded as significantly
roreshadowing the course of the silver
Dill when it comes up tomorrow
The silver forces asserted their
strength at the outset of the proceed
ngs to day and by a vote of S6 to q
displaced the morning business and
took up the silver bill before the regu-
ar order had been reached.
Villas then took the floor for four
hours and in a carefully prepared
speech defended the administration for
the recent bond issue.
When Villas concluded, active steps
were taken by the silver men to force
a final vote. I&was exident, however,
that the opposition was ready to talk
against time, and thus carry the de-
bate through the night, If necessary to
cut off the vote.
Jones appealed to the opposition to
fix the time for vote tomorrow, but
no agreement could be reached, At 8
O'Clock the senate business was brought
to a complete standstill by the failure
to secure a quorum and the session
closed.

except that appropriating $500, 900 for a
