SILVER'S GRIP ON THE SENATE.
FREE COINAGE SUBSTITUTE FOR
THE BOND BILL PROBABLE.

Nothing short of This VIII satisfy
the siIverite Majority Of the FL
nance COmmittee-The Tariff Bill
Apt TO BE Reported 10 the senate
without Amendment and an Effort
to he Made TO whip the Party Into
Line ON the Measure.
Washington, Jan. 1.-The Senate COM
mittee on finance will hold its first meeting
under the reorganization tomorrow. Al
though final action may not be taken on
either the bond or tariff bill recently
passed by the House. some members OF
the committee will urge speedy action,
and it is possible an immediate report.
The best judgment Of the situation indi-
Gates that the bond bin will be destroyed
in committee and a substitute in the shape
of a free coinage bill reported. Nothing
short of this will satisfy the silver men
on the committee, and as they have eight
votes to five against silver. any measure
they agree upon can be easily adopted In
committee.
Mr. Wolcott OF Colorado, one Of the new
men added to the committee, has not
been in Washington this winter owing
to III health but his absence makes little
difference, the silver men still having a
working majority Of two in COMMITTEES
and clean majority in the Senate of ten
to twelve.
1t is probable that the tariff bill will be
reported to the Senate without amend
merit The republicans have been making
every EFFORT to get together on this meas
ure and the silver republicans who will
vote FOR free coinage as a substitute for
the bond proposition, IL is believed, can be
persuaded to refrain from putting such
an amendment on the tariff bill. The re-
publican leaders hope 70 see the bill pass
the Senate as it came from the House II
is believed the President will veto Il and
1t Is thought by republicans to be good
politics TO put the President where he will
be compelled to veto a measure that is
intended to Increase the receipts and pro-
vide adequate revenue. Whether the re-
publicans can be lined up on this PROPOSE
ton and persuaded to not insist upon
amendments is a question no one can yet
answer IL Is not unlikely that after the
bill is reported a republican caucus will
be held to discuss the subject and agree
upon a policy.
Owing TO the reorganization of the SEN
ate committees there has been a change
in the clerks, many Of those serving here
tofore as private secretaries to senators
becoming committee clerks at increased
salaries There has been quite a rush to
be sworn in IN time to get pay for the first
day OF the month.

SURRENDER OF zEITOUN.
The Porte Makes Evasive Replies to
the ORer OF the Powers.

Constantinople, Jan. 1.-The porte has
made evasive replies to the foreign diplO-
mats who have offered to mediate be-
tween the Turks and the Armenians for
the surrender OF Ze:toun, which place is
now in the hands of the Armenians. The
foreign representatives, accordingly. held
another meeting yesterday and decided
to make another effort TO induce the
porte to accept mediation and named the
foreign cOnsuls at Aleppo as mediators.
There were disturbances at Orfah on
Dec. q and 2s, but no details have been
received.
United States Minister Terrell has re-
ceived kilograms from Aintab, Asia Minor.
saying that slight disturbances had taken
place there in which three persons We're
killed. The kilograms also said that there
had been a bloody outbreak at Orfah,
lasting two days. Miss Shattuck, a mis-
sionary at that place, the dispatch said,
had received the assurance that she would
have guard and be protected and taken
to Aintab.
Dragomans of the various embassies,
went to the porte Tuesday afternoon for
the purpose of obtaining definite reply
to the requests of the foreign diplomats
that the matter of the surrender of lei
toun by the Armenians to the Turks be
arranged through the mediation of the
cOnsuls at Aleppo.
kilograms from Harpoot say that the
government has put a stop to the work
of relieving the needy and suffering at
that place, which has been conducted
through the missionaries.
On Dec. 16 the Armenians in Zeitoun
made a demand upon the porte for food
with which to feed the Turkish prisoners
in their hands. On Dec. % the sultan Is
sued an order that food should be sup
piled.
During the massacre at Matalia two Ar
menian members of the governors cOun-
ell rushed into the presence, of the gov
The governor refused to interfere in their
behalf, and the men were killed by the
guards in the government building.
The Turkish commission of six, which
was sent to pacify Armenia, have visited
three cities. They refused to pay any at
tention to the written complaints of Ar
menians, but summoned the most promi-
nent of the Armenian inhabitants before
them.
The summons were obeyed and the Ar
menian notables were blamed for causing
ened with death IL quiet was not at once
restored. The commission secretly met
the most prominent men of the Moslen
inhabitants before they summoned the
Armenians before them.
London, Jan. IA later dispatch from
Constantinople says that the dragomans
of the different embassies who went to the
porte yesterday to try to induce the gov
ernment to take some definite action in
regard to the surrender of Zeitoun by
the Armenians were referred to the pal
ace, whittier they accordingly went. At
the palace, they received a reply similar
to the portes first one, namely that the
| offer of mediation was not rejected, but
that its acceptance would be POSTPONED
until the result of the governments en-
deavors should be seen.

the question of deciding for or against
another strike was placed after they
had met the general manager Of the

company, which was to give the men
that struck their old positions on the
road, but he refused, as was expected, to
grant the demand of 81 for a day of ten
hours. The principal fight by the COM

milton of the Amalgamated Association
of Street Railway Employees. The COM
pany has announced that during the New
Year all new men who are taken on must
sign an agreement that they will belong
to no labor organization. Mr. Beetem

position, and in the end the sentiment
of the committee was in favor of sur
rendering this point to the company.

and Ridge avenue lines signed the agree
ment on behalf of the employees of these
lines. The men representing the other
divisions said that they were willing to
sign the agreement, but they We're con-
indorsed by the men.

and went TO a mass meeting of the cm-
ployes to report the result of the con-
ference. What the result of the mass
meeting will be cannot be stated. Many
of the men who are assembled awaiting
the return of the committee were in an
exceedingly irrltated state OF mind, and
were loudly in ia yor of a strike The
mass meeting was being held late to-
night, and the committee will meet Mr.
Beetem again at 2 O'Clock I'm the morning
and report to him the decision of the
men.
