(From Our Regular COrrespOndent)

(From Our Regular Correspondent)
WAsHrNeroN. d. c., Aug 3. 'e8.
The Mckinley and Hobart army has
begun its march towards victory, and
already news is beginning to come in
showing that the efforts of the silver
mine owners, whose paid employee
Bryan is said to be, to corrupt the I'M
thinking masses with failacious argu-
ments and promises of something for
nothing will end in defeat for the par
ty OF anarchy and reputation. Every
day Information is received from COM
munities in which it had been suppos-
ed that the silver sentiment had
full sway showing that the sentiment
in favor Of honest money and protee-
tion to American industry, which is
solely championed by the republican
party is on the increase. This, too, in
the face OF the fact that the republic
cans have just begun the sharp shoot
ing OF the great battle which is to be
waged in the interests of our right to
have an honest currency and the right
TO esrn it by honest currency and the
right TO earn it by honest toll.

independent of all support from her
sons. whose lot in life she had seen, as
she believed, weildef;ned and very
promising.
Her eldest grandson, as a bankers
clerk, was. she persuaded herself, GER

While Tony. so different i'm every

which filed his mind, and the gener-
Gus goodness which overlooked his
heart, was we'll suited in the trade
which had been his fathers before
him.

Washington. June THE long strug-
gle in the senate over the bill to pro-
hibit the issue of bonds came to an
end and the bill was passed by a vote
of - TO -. The bill. as passed, covers
only three lines. as follows:
BE ii enacted that the issuance OF
interest bearing bonds of the United
States for any purpose whatever. with
out further authority of congress is
hereby prohibited" The vote was as

A flood of amendments was first
voted on, all being defeated. One. by
Mr.. Aldrich Or. H. gave the execu-
tive powers to issue bonds in certain
emergencies, another by Mr.. Aldrich
provided that the act should not i'm
pair the obligation TO pay in coin. Mr..
Hills amendment that treasury notes
be retired when redeemed was tabled
tx IN ID Mr. tlitu VIC n n,nnIr,,nt g.,
the substitution of coin notes for treas
ury notes was defeated without an ave
and nay vote. The last preliminary
vote was on Hills motion to POSTPONE
the subject until next December. which
was defeated Then came the final
vote.
Over the Presidents Veto
The Gus devoted itself to pasSin.
the river and harbOr bill Ove the pres
dents veto and to unSeatinp. by a
vote of 162 to SO, John J. Walsh. the
Democratic member from the Eighth
New York district, whose place will
be filled by John Murray Mitchell,
Democrat. Both of these actions were
foregOne conclusions, so they excited
comparatively little interest. although
there was a full house to vote on the
river and harbor bill. 1t was passed
by 800 to 60, many more votes than
the two-thirds necessary to overrule a
veto, and 1t was passed without de-
bate, although Mr.. Dockery Of Mis-
souri, protested vehemently that de-
bate had been promised. T%hirty-nine
Democrats voted to override the pres
ident's objections and twenty-six Re-
publicans stood by Mr.. Cleveland. The
naval appropriation bill was reported
from conference with an amendment
on all items but the number of battle
ships. incidentally Chairman Cannon,
Of the committee on appropriations,
predicted that congress will adjourn
late next week.

of Representatives.

Washington. June .. - The senate
will begin the week with he intention
of making it the last of h session IT
possible. Some senators put the day
of adjournment as early as Thursday
| of the present week. while others place
il on Saturday and still others think
il will be impossible to conclude be-
fore the first days of next week. The
imperatiye work before the senate in
order to reach ADJOURN ent is to dis
pose of the conference reports on the
ordinary appropriation bills. to vote
upon the bond prOhibitory bill and TO
consider the proposition to pass the
river and harbOr bill over the preSi-
dents veto, in case the bill receives
the necessary two-third's vote in the
house to bring it TO the senate. Some
senator's. probably a majority, also feel
that they are under obligations to
press the filled cheese bill to a nal is
sue, but there is Il sufficiently strong
minority opposed to this measure to
prevent congress remaining in session
for the sole purpose of passing ii after
the appropriation bills are out Of the
way. 1t would, therefore, appear II a
the hope of the friends of this bill
must rest upon getting it through be-
fore all the Appropriation conference
reports are disposed of.
The closing days of the session in
the house will be mainly devoted to
the consideration of conference reports
but the feature of the week will be
the passage of the river and harbor
bill over the presidents veto. All the
friends of the bill who are absent have
received peremptory telegraphic sum-
mons to be present Oh Tuesday when
the bill is reported back from the COM
mittee. The several votes taken on
it already demonstrate that it has con
siderably more than a two-thirds ma
jority. and its friends express no
doubt of the result. 1t is not probable
that much time will be allowed for de-
bate. The conference reports will be
given the right Of way whenever pre-
scented.
Washington. June 3-Thc final vote
on the Butler bill to prohibit the issue
of bonds will be taken in the senate
tomorrow. No exact time for the vote
has been fixed. the agreement being
that il shall be taken before adjourn
mcnt. Most OF the session to-day was
given to debate on the bill. Mr.. CullOm
speaking against it as a step toward
rcpudiatiOn. and Mr.. Brown OF Utah
in favor of this bill or of 4 resolution
offered by him declaring that the
bonds under any future would be il
legal and void.
The house passed the bill to approve
the act of the assembly of New Next
co authorizing the issue of certain
bonds. and also Mr.. Phillips bill to
create an industrial commission OF
twelve members.
