Senate Put in the Day Debating the
Resolutions.
The debate On the Cuban question occu-
pied most or the time OF the Senate yester-
DAY. II was opened by Mr.. Caffery in con-
tinuat tion OF the speech begun by him Thurs
day, in earnest opposition to all interfer-
ence in the matter, and il was closed by an
equally earnest appea! b. Mr.. Call in favor
OF the Cuban Insurgents or patriots.
There was a rather unfavorable indi-
cation Of the fate of the conference re-
port in vote taken on the question of an
ad iournment over. A motion that when
the Senate ad diourned it be till next Mon-
day, was made early in the day by Mr.
German.
1t was resisted by Senators Sherman and
Lodge, on the ground that the Cuban reso-
lutions should be pressed TO a vote without
unnecessary delay. The motion to adjourn
over was carried. however, by a very
large ma jority-42 TO %.

CANNoN's PREDICTIONS

said, you may defeat Us for reelection.

in our stead will be either Democrats or
Populists, Just as strong for silver as we
are, but they viii not he for protection.
They will be for free trade Oar op-
position TO protection without free silver
he said, will be az soft summer
zephyr to a wintry cyclone, compared to the
clamor Of the men who would follow us
for free silver but they would also he as
clamorous for free trade
II was not prospect that was pleasing
to the manufacturers. When they came to
express themselves they gave tongue TO
much the same sentiment, that is they
declared their willingness to accept silver,
bimetallism, with or without an interna-
tional agreement, provided they could get
protection. So the alliance was made, an
alliance that may have a determining in
fluence upon the politics of the United States
during the next campaign and the years
that will follow.

BURNED THEIR BRIDGES
PrOieCtIOn-Si!Ver Leaders Are in
II to Stay.
STRONG SPEECHES MADE
Silver Senator'S Are Said to Have
Served Notice That No Tariff Bill
VIII Pass Without Al Free Coinage
Provision-Cannona and Teller Were
the Leaders in the Movement.

The conference between the Republican
silver Senators and the Philadelphia manu-
facturers held in this city OH Thursday was
behind closed doors.
Notwithstanding the conference was in
what is known i'll Congress as an 'exccu-
tive session." it las Teen learned, as the
executive secrets OF the Senate are
learned, that some very bright and effective
speeches were made, both by the silver
Senator'S and the manufacturers.
Tie Senators were very frank iii telling
the gentlemen who took part i'll tie con-
ference their exact position. They had
voted against considering the Dingley
tariff bin, voted against it even wien it
assumed the guise or q flee coinage PROPOSE
ton.
senator Teller led off in TIE explanations.
His presentation of the case OF himself aud
colleagues was able and impassioned.
TELLER TOOK THE LEAD.
He informed the manufacturers that the
silver Senators had been voting for pro-
lection for projections sake, some of
them for twenty years. others for shorter
periods, and they had Bever had anything
in return, nothing for silver, which was
to them what protection was to the manu-
facturcrs.
He served notice then and there that
never so long as he was a member Of the
Senate would he be found again advocating
and votingsfor protection unless there was
reciprocity, reciprocity which carried with
1t free silver coinage. lie pointed out
with the utmost frankncsS and plainEess
that no protection measure, no matter under
what plea or guise, could pass this Congress
without his q id ana the aid of his colleagues
never. unless silver was also protected.
Following Teller came Frank Cannon
| who assured the visitors that tie pro-
! tectioBists could never expect, could never
