WARRINGTON. Jan. 15.-The Republican Sem
ate caucus this morning decided 70 leave the

honal Monetary Conference ss previously sub
mitted TO tho caucus. II will bc reported TO the
Senate by Mr.. Chandler on Monday. who. in the

In his behalf. II was thought to be inadvisable
70 insert the words unlimited" !" for the reason
that II would tend to confuse and possibly mis-
lead European delegates. The resolution closely
follows the text OF the four previous acts pro-
vidinR for conferences, and 1t 10 urged that II
means free and unlimited coinage as strongly
as u that word was used. As agreed To. tho
resolution authorizes the President, after March
Z next, TO appoint i've or more delegates to AN
International conference, to be called for the
purpose OF deter mining ratio for the coinage
OF Roid ana silver. ana authorizing tho free
mintage OF colo and silver at such ratio Ms may
De agreed upon by that conference.
some OF the silver Democrats urge that the
WORD unlimited should bo added. and there
will be opposition from . few Senators by rea.
son OF tho failure To use It. II 10 not thought.
however. that the passage OF the resolution will
be endangered. A careful canvass Of the Som
ate shows that there is general willingness to
permit the resolution to be adopted without
much debate. The silver men will take little
part IN the discussion unless the gold men pre-
cipitateit. In that event several silver Ssnat-
speak 70 the resolution, and tho chances arc
that. under such conditions. q financial debate
may DO Injected into the proceedings OF tho
