OPPOSED TO REEDS BILL.
Ultra High Tariff Men Think 1t is Not Rad
lcal Enough.

Washington, Feb. 6-Some opposi-
ton to Mr.. Reeds financial plan is de-
veloping among the Republicans in the
house, but what proportions IL will as
sumo is matter of doubt. Ultra high
tariff men are asserting that the first
section OF the substitute, that which
provides for the issue of bonds.
amounts to recession fromthe Republi-
can contention that the only trouble
with the finances Is the insufficiency of
the revenue. They say that the Demo-
Gratis have resumed the responsibility
of running the government and should
be compelled to bear the burden. Three
Pennsylvania Republicans have come
out openly against the Reed measure
and with two or three silver men are
working against il. While some of the
free silver Republicans will vote for the
Reed substitute, others argue that from
a party standpoint 1T will be good pol
icy to encourage the Democrats to pass
a bond measure with a gold proviso.
Representative Brossius (Pa.), who
is a member of the banking and cur
rency committee, says that he believes
that most of the Republicans will vote
for the administration measure in the
end after recording themselves for Mr..
Reeds bill. but he fears that the Dem

Washington, Feb. s. Chairman
Bland, of the coinage committee of the
house. has prepared a proposed amend
ment intended as a substitute for the
financial bill now before the house. 1t
provides in brief that all coin obliga-
tions Of the government shall be paid
in standard gold or silver coins and
that such payments shall be made in
such coins as may be most advantage
Gus to the government For the pur-
pose of providing the treasury with
such coins. the duties on imports are
to be paid one-half IN gold and,one-balf
in standard silver coins. To redeem
the treasury notes issued under the
Sherman act, the bullion purchased
hereunder is 10 be coined. not less
than $4,000, 600 every month. The
treasury notes redeemed are 10 be paid
into the treasury. The free coinage act
of 1887 IS revved and all authority to
issue bonds or to increase the interest
bearing debt is revoked. To meet the
deficiency accruing in the treasury and
to enable the secretary to set apart
coin to meet obligations of that charac-
ter, the secretary is authorized to issue
treasury notes which are to be receiv-
able for all demands of the United
States except duties on imports and

ter from Professor c. B. Dial, secretary
of the relief commission of Stratton.
Neb. The letter stated that there were
600 people dependent on this commits
sion and that there was no relief in
sight. Professor Dial asked that S100
be sent at once to keep the people go
ing a week longer. Conaway, chair
man of the house relief committee,

with the law In organizing their relief
commissions. The letter was address
ed to Cole of Hitchcock and he made
strong plea for immediate action on the
part of the commission. He also NOV
ed that the letter be referred to the
house relief committee with instruc-
