and the populists. Of course. claim
that having stood BY silver rieht
along they are entitled to the con
troll Of any silver party that may be
launched. All Of which makes It
look like there was little probability
Of q new party ADVOCATING silver
alone taking part in the Presiden-
tial campaign.
Another element, too. has entered
the problem this week. which NAV
or may not be important. The new
element is the announcement that
England has joined Germany in ex-
pressing a willingness to take part
in another international monetary
conference. This is taken by some
to mean long step towards the
rehabilitation Of silver as q money
metal, but others regard it with
suspicion and do not hesitate to
express the opinion that the action
of both Germany and England has |
been dictated by the great gold in
forests than for no other purpose
than to have the monetary commits
sion excite sufficient hope of agree
ment to prevent silver figuring as
an issue in next years Presidential
contest in the United States, and
then to do nothing.
The bill for tho appointment Of
'hree persons to form q board Of
to decide all controver-
lies between common carriers en-
jagged in interstate commerce and
heir employees, which cannot be
ldjusted by mutual agreement. and
making the award Of the board
enforceable in the United States
ourts, was passed without division
y the House, but unless it can be
AIKEN up by unanimous consent
here Is little chance for it to get
oted on by the Senate.
There is at least one man in
Washington, outside the ranks of
be newspaper correspondents, who
as not surprised by Senator
'olph's defeat. That man is Sena.
y Dubois, Of Idaho, who filed a
'rmal application for the seat oc-
aPled by Senator Dolph on the
az after Mr.. Dolph made strong
speech in the Senate,
bout two years ago, at the same
me publicly stating his belief that
would get that seat after the
urth Of March, 1895, because the
sople OF Oregon would see to it
at Mr.. Dolph was not returned to
e Senate.
The House BY = vote Of 143 to /
z refused to appropriate the 1925
70 which Secretary Gresham had
reed to allow in payment of dam
'es to Canadian sealers in Behring
"a. Those who voted against the .
preparation did so because they
lieved the damages allowed were
cessive; it having been stated.
ID not contradicted. that the total
the claims for damages fled by
. sealers themselves was consid-
ably less than 500 600.
