Says He Denounced the Democratic Con- vention at Chicago and Should Be
 Turned Down.

Washington. Jan. 12.-The senate com mittee on finance this morning ordered a favorable report to be made on the nomi- nation of David R. Francis to be sec retary of the interior, sent to the senate December 9 last. MT. Vest was present and opposed the action of the committee, but none of his democratic associates joined with him, and the recommendation was ordered without the formality of a vote
 MT. Vest said that he had no personal grievance against MT. Francis, but he believed that he ought not to be hon ored with this appointment after his con- duct in the recent campaign.
 MT. Francis, MT. Vest said, had accused the national democratic convention at Chicago of being dishonorable body and had repudiated the ticket nominated there and antagonized the platform adopted by that convention. It is under stood that MT. Vest will vote against confirmation in the senate, and may make a speech on the subject. He will not have the support of the other silver democrats.
