TELLER RESOLUTION BURIED.
Renten In the House by IA Majority
of Fifty.

By the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The house
of representatives today buried the
Teller resolution, declaring the bonds
of the United States payable in silver,
under an adverse majority OF fifty
votes. The Republicans were solidly
arrayed in opposition, with two eX-
ceptions, Mr. Linney, Of North Caro-
lima, who voted with the Democrats
and POpulists and Mr. White IN. e.,
the only colored member Of the house,
who answered present when his
name was called. The desertions from
the Democratic side were Mr.. McAleer
Pa.) and Mr. Elliott IS. c.. Both vot-
ed with the Republicans against the
proposition.
Speaker Reed although 1t Is not Gus
tomary for him to vote, had his name
called and amid the cheers Of his fol-
lowers went on record in opposition to
the resolution.
The vote was reached after five
hours of debate, under a special or
der adopted at the opening Of the ses-
sion today. The limited time allowed
for debate and the pressure of mem
bers for an opportunity to be heard
was so great that the leaders on both
sides were compelled to farm out the
time by minutes. This detracted much
from the continuity Of the discussion.
but II also, In a measure, lntenSiued
the interest in the galleries which were
crowded all day. and the combatants
on the floor were cheered by their re-
spective sympathiZers. Many of the
senators from the other end of the
capitol were present to listen TO the
arguments.
The majority, under the !, ,ldershlp
of Mr. Dingley, who made a carefully
prepared speech sounding the keynote
of the opposition, assumed the position
that the last clause Of the resolution
was in reality a disguised declaration
for the free coinage of silver, while
the assaulting democrats, under the
direction of Mr.. Bailey, maintained
that the defeat Of the resolution was
another step in the direction Of estab-
lishment of the gold standard. 10 which
they alleged both the president and
Secretary Gage had irrevocably COM
mitted the Republican party.
The debate was at times fast and
heated. but there were no sensational
incidents beyond the kissing of Mr..

TWO CURRENCY QUESTIONS
Submitted to Secretary Gage by an
indianapolis Inuuircr

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, jan 31.-A citizen Of
indianapolis, few weeks ago, wrote to Mr..
Gage, secretary of the treasury, and pre-
pounded two questions to him The first one
was as follows: Is the value of our paper
currency regulated by a law of congress. or
by reason of gold or silver being held in our
government vaults for its REDEMPTION ?''
An answer TO this was received today from
F. A. Vanderlip, the assistant secretary of the
treasury department, TO the effect that Leg
islative action alone is not sufficient to give
value to a paper currency
The other question was as follows: IF the
government of the United States should re-
tire all its paper currency, and which is now
by law made a legal tender and substitute
in lieu thereof those of a national bank cur
rency, could congress, under our constitution
make such bank currency a legal tender
one?"
