Hobnobbing in the Senate to E feet a
Compromise on the Question.
SENATOR GORMAN'S IDEA.
The Proportion Not Thought Likely to
Succeed-The Senate Silver Eli May
Retard the Sale OF the New
Bonds.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2D.-There is still
a good deal of hobnobbing going on in
the senate in the effort to reach COM
promise on the financial question. Mr..
German is still industriously at work,
but so far no progress can be reported
The proposition Of Senator German is
not approved either by the sound
money" or the free coinage advocates,
and, from present Indications, will fall
Hat. The German idea contemplates
an issue of 500, 600, 900 of per cent.
bonds 10 be used in retiring green.
backs and opening the minis to the
free coinage OF silver until the amount
thus coined ag yregates the amount Of
the greenbacks retired. There is an
evident desire among the senators
on both siles of the chant Der to formu-
late measure upon which the major
ity of the senate, including both sound
money" and free coinage men, may
uprre, but il is reasonably certain that
no such proposition will succeed as
that of Senator German, which grants

ton, nor will several senators who are
not in favor of unlimited coinage of
silver consent to the creation Of an in
terest-Learing loan that bears no inter
est.
Another suggestion to which the
name of no senator is yet definitely at
tached is that the senate add to the
house bond bill an amendment direct
ing that when green backs and treas
ury notes are received at the treusury
in exchange for gold or in payment OF
customs dues, they shall be destroyed.
With the provision OF the house bill
authorizing the issue Of certificates to
meet deficiencies in revenues, the can
collation. of gold demand notes would
protect the treasury against loss of
gold in proportion as the means of de-
pletion should be reduced.
At this time, however, it looks very
much AS il no compromise measure
would he agreed upon. The free coin

WASHINGTON. Jan. 29.-On the con-
clusion of Mr., Tillman's speech ln the

the committee on foreign relations,

The senate silver BlIl.
New YORK, Jan. 60 Fears were ex-
pressed in the banking community
yesterday that the silver amendment
to the bond bill, now pending in the
senate, would retard the sale Of the
new bonds. Local fnanciers predict
that if the amendment is passed the
foreign interests represented by j. 7.
Morgan 81 Co. will Withdraw their bids
and that American securities will be
returned to this country in large
quantities The passage of the silver
amendment by the senate, Mr.. Nor
gan said yesterday, would mean loss
of confidence in American securities,
and not only an absence of any subscrip-
tons for bonds, but woull practically
make impossible the later selling of
the bonds abroad.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. 90-It is

about three months ago that Mr..

the publication OF the rumor brought
from him statement that he had at
no time entertained an idea of pur.

ever, differences have arisen between
the st. Louis editor and Joseph Pu-

of the state convention OF the A. o. H. OF

account of the proceedings of said conven-

that Is the part referring to that being the
first state convention of the Daughters OF
