made the issue between representatives
OF the two leading elements in the SEN

was in the nature of a criticism OF
Secretary Gage and declared Illegal

UNITED STATES SENATOR WOLCOTT.
head of President McKinley's international
monetary commission, will bring to his work
a very good knowledge of the questions to
be considered. He was one of the Colorado
leaders who did not desert the Republican
party and go over, heart and soul to the
free coiners of silver at a 16 to l ratio. Mr.
Wolcott was silver man, and realized that
the money issue was the overshadowing issue
of the campaign. He was in favor of BIZ
metallism-that is, the free and unlimited
coinage of gold and silver as standard money,
but he positively refused to aid in the elee-
ton of Mr.. Bryan to bring it about. He
preferred to elect the gold ticket with the
bimetallic pledge, and then try the plan of
bringing about an understanding with the
big countries of Europe whereby united ac~
ton would restore silver to it's place In
the moneys Of the world. He has been do
ing advance work in Europe, and has familiar
lied himself with the feeling abroad on this
score. theoretically, therefore, Mr.. Wolcott
should be strong man in the commission.
His status a senator will add to the inn
portance Of the body.

broad charges of corruption. but

against the motion was that of Mr..
Chandler, while the Democrats voted
sOlidly against it. They had the as
sistance of all the silver Republicans
and the Populists present, except Mr.
Mantle, silver Republican, of Montana,
who voted with the straight Repub-
licans. Mr.. Cannon silver Republican,
and Messrs. Butler, Harris, of Kansas;

Senator Kyle, whose position is a ques-

Prior to the vote q breezy discussion
occurred on several phases of the
tariff. The subject came up first when
Mr. Mantle presented a memorial from
wool growers urging ample protection
to their industry. He referred, in this
connection. to reports that Secretary
North. of the Wool Manufacturers as
sociatiOn, was acting as secretary Of
the finance committee. Mr.. Morrill,
denied the statement, saying this gen.
tleman had been summoned as an eX-

question.

known as to Gen. Riveras condition is
that he occupies a comfrtable room.
Nothing is known as to when he will
be tried. That will depend probably on
the progress he makes toward recov-
cry from his wounds. The likelihood is
that he will be tried by a summary
court martial, but this does not imply
even if sentenced that he will be ex-
ecuted.

ADLAI E. STEVENSON, the Democratic
member of the monetary conference commits
sion, has not been noted for his erudition in
this field of economy Mr.. Stevenson is
statesman who understands the coinage ques
ton, however, and distinguished himself in
the late campaign by breaking away from the
Cleveland philosophy and joining the heretics
outright. He made several speeches during
the campaign, and always favored independent
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1,
without regard to any foreign concert what
ever. He used the stock arguments for silver
and predicted a restoration of the parity in
case the United States opened its mints to
the world. He advocated independent coin
age warmly, and took place with the theor
lists beside Senator Jones, of Nevada, urging
the automatic effect the American mints would
have upon all the silver in the world. OF
course, Mr.. Stevenson wants international BIZ
lmetalism and his former high place as vice
president will cause him TO be recognized as a
prominent man even in the old world. Mr..
Stevenson is a lawyer, and his experience In
public once has been long and worthy. He Is
81 years old.

ranged to the satisfaction of the wool
growers. This should be done without
arraying the wool growers against the
wool manufacturers. Their interests
were Identical Certainly no wool
grower would desire to have a duty
on manufactured wool which did not
afford adequate protection. This whole
question must be settled by the sound
and sober judgment of both interests.

the purpose of raising the taxes to
the highest point on their respective
lines Of goods. Both of these industries
were represented, according to the
statements made, but the great body
of American people, who were con-
sumers of these taxed goods, were not
represented here.
Mr.. Morrill, succeeded in cutting off
the debate by calling for the regular
order, but it soon broke out again on
