MAY FAVOR FREE COINAGE
IT IS BELIEyED THAT THE sUBsrr.
 TUTE WZLL HAZE SIX MAJoRl rY.

There Appears to be Disposition of the
 Silver and Anti-silver Men to Let the
 People Know What Element it is That
 Controls the Senate.
 Washington, Jan. is.--The debate in the senate this week will be much like the debate during the extra session when congress was convened for the purpose Of repeating the purchasing clause of the Sherman act The silver substitute to the house bond bill is now the unfinished business, and 1t can be called up any day at the corclusion of the morning hour. No one has given notice of his inten- tion to speak during the week. but the subject is fruitful in debate and a number of speeches will be delivered.
 There appears. however, to be dis position on the part of the silver and anti-silver men to permit the question to come to a vote without delay, soima of the anti-silver men believing it would be the best thing to let the country know at the earliest opportunity whas element it is that controls the senate. II IS now Delleved that the free coinage substitute will pass by at least half a dozen votes.
 The finance committee will meet in regular session again Tuesday and the republican members counting on, tha vote of MT. Jones of Nevada, confident ly expect at that time to report the tariff bill as it came from the house.
 Whenever the senate shall return the revenue or bond bill with amendment its consideration will at once supersede all other business, but neither one is expected to reach the house this week. There may be a diversion by the pre- sentation os reply by the secretary pr state to any one of the four or five resolutions of inquiry, but no intimation mas been given so far as known that any of the replies will be transmitted by the president this week.

PACIFIC CONVENTIONS.
How the Feeling is in Germany Regarding
 England. M

hShSihuus Berlin, Jan. 12.-In view of the fact that the future of Germany's relations with England is involved in doubt, Chancellor Prince von Hohenlohe has sent assuring communications to the governments at Vienna and Rome, pointing out that any diplomatic action which might be taken by the Berlin government would not involve either the triple alliance or the individual in stood the chancellor's communication expressed entirely pacific intentions on the part of Germany towards England and also a belief that good mutual understanding between Germany and England would be restored at an early day.
 It is known that the Italian govern- ment, fearing that the agreement with Lord Salisbury for cooperation in event of certain contingencies might be dis- turbed by rupture between England and Germany, asked for a certain ex- planation from Germany and it Is prob able also that Austria wanted to know how the emperor viewed England's war like demonstra tions. It is not deemed possible that the chancellor could have given the above assurances while Ger many diplomacy was seeking to form a coalition of European powers a against England The story of the attempt to form q European coalition originated in England ought now to be knocked in the head. Germany has not sought nor does she seek any active allies in her endeavor to check English encroach- ments in the Transvaal endangering Germany and German investments there and in Delagoa Bay.
 It is not question that ought to dis turb the peace of Europe or to cause any European powers to intervene ex- cept those concerned in the recent con- ventions. The government has not sug- gested any European conference, but the envoy of the Transvaal republic, pr. van Blokand while in Berlin spoke of such a conference as possible. The Boer envoy has been in Paris consult- ing with the French government in re- gard to the situation, and if the trou- bles there become more aggravated and England refuses the Boers a just set clement, the result will be that the Transvaal government will appeal for a conference of the powers to dispose of the whole matter, but there is no reason why Germany or France should insist upon such a conference.
 This is the semi-official view of the situation, but it omits from calculation the results of England's rejected offices of a conference and also Egland's de- clining to accept the ciew taken by the Berlin government that the allied pow CTS composing the Dreibund could not be affected or that diplomatic hostili- ties could and should be limited to fix ed areas. It is significant, too, to find Bismarck wlio is no friend to English pretensiaay, warning the Berlin gov- ernment through the Hamburger Nach- lichten against making external and |internal peace by the adoption of pol icy of adventurous interventions.

AN IMPERIAL QUARREL.
Prince Leopo!d's Period of Arrest and Con-
 finement Over.

Berlin, Jan. 12.-The quarrel between
 the kaiser and Prince Frederick Leo
 pold of Prussia, husband of the em-
 press sister. over the princes harsh
 treatment of his wife after her recent accident in breaking through the ice
 while skating near Glenicke Castle,
 Potsdam is still the absorbing topic of
 discussion. The princes period of ar
 rest and confinement in room in the castle is over. but the feud between him and the emperor is not terminated.
 Prince Frederick Leopold has not yet
 resumed his military command and it
 is now recalled how the emperor pub licly rebuked him for mistakes which he made in the military manoeuvres around Bornstedt The origin of the
 present row between the two dates back to the time when the princess, who was enciente and an~ the point of acocuch- ment, attended a state ball, and despite
 her condition danced through the func- ton. The empress, the princess sister, spoke to her about what she character ized as disgraceful conduct and got snubbed for her pains. The emperor
 then told the princess lady-in- waiting that the princess ought not to dance. and bade her tell her mistress what he had said. This resulted in a coolness between the sisters, the princess avoid ing the empress whenever she could When the princess broke through the ice While skating on Glenicke Lake and came near drowning the empress called at Glenicka Castle to inquire as to her condition and the princess refused to re- ceive her.
 The empress nevertheless remained at the castle and sent for the emperor. 1 The emperor went to 6lenicke Castle and furious quarrel ensued between the kaiser and the prince, who fiercely resented the enaperor's interference in his private family affairs. During the period of the prInce's confinement in lthe fortress of the castle. which lasted two weeks, guards with loaded rifles were placed before every entrance to the castle, and all lights were ordered extinguished at eight o'clock in the eve ming.
 Socialistic malice has seized the occa- sion to circulate the very worst rumors concerning the quarrel. The Eorwaerts tHe pTlncipal SOcldllSl organ, reprOuucSs the report that the princess when she was rescued from the lake had no skates
 nor did her companion, the Baroness Colmar, her lady-in- waiting, have any The only inference to be drawn from this fact, the Vorwaerss declares, is that the breaking through the ice was a de- liberate attempt on the part Vs the princess to commit suicide, because of
 the brutal treatment to which she was
 subjected by her husband. It is under
 stood, too, Prince Frederick Leopold
 will resign from the army and hence-
 forth live in private

 Port Townsend, Wash, Jan. 12,--The British bark Janet Cowan, Capt. Thomp- son, was wrecked on December S1 last near Carmanah, on the west coast Of Vancouver Island. The second mate and two sailors jumped overheard when the vessel struck the rocks and Were drowned and the skipper and three of his crew were frozen to death while en- 7 deavoring to find shelter on the rocky shore. The Janet Cowan was Clyde built vessel owned by Shackle & Co.,, and valued at s127,0OO. She left Cape Town, South Africa, September II, for Vancouver, under charter to load lum- fher for South Africa. December 50, whsn she rounded Cape Flattery she encountered 8 heavy gale which drove her seaward. A succession of adverse winds forced the ship toward the dread ed west coast of Vancouver Island and she struck a reef about twelve miles west of Carmanah lighthouse on the night of December 31. She grounded / and the second mate and two men jumped overheard and perished.
 After several attempts a sailor nam- ed Chamberlain succeeded in swimming ashore with a rope, and later on a breeches buoy was rigged up on which the remainder of the crew reached the shore safely. The men were almost en- tirsly nude and badly frozen. The land ing was affected at the bottom of a [ Cy,,0 o1; A xl cliff and by means of rope his com panions followed him to the tableland above. Here atelegraph line was found and the part divided, following the wire in opposite directions.
 The band who faced westward soon encountered a river which barred fur ther progress. In retracing their steps they followed the line eastward until they discovered the bodies of Captain Thompson and three men frozen stiff and almost covered with snow. Fearing similar fate the fanished and half frozen seamen once more headed for their vessel. On reaching the cliff they found the sea much calmer, and se- curing a lifcboat which had drifted ashore the party returned to their ship
 While attempting to prevent the Saiia.a;s from pfllaging the captains cabin the first mate fell through hatchway and broke his leg. After loot ing the bark of three nnonths provisions the men landed on the beach, where for twelve days they suffered in the snow until the arrival of the tug Tyee yesterday.
