SILVER VICTORY
Vote in the Senate Stood Al to
25
In Favor of Paying e. s. Bonds
in White Dollars.
TELLER RESOLUTION
Was Made the Test of Strength
Yesterday.
Kansas Senators Divided on the
Question.

Washington. D. c., Jan. 21-By a
vote of Al to 25 the senate yesterday de-
clared, in effect a want of confidence
in Secretary Cages declaration in IA
VOr of the single gold standard.
Rather suddenly Senator Vest moved
to take up Senator Teller'S resolution
declaring that government bonds are
payable in both gold and silver coin.
The roll call which followed was a test
vote of the strength of the resolution
and showed Al for and 25 against.
The showing for silver in the senate
was a shock to the gold men. The sill
yer senators say that the vote on the
Teller resolution marks an epoch in the
development of the sentiment in this
country of the money question and is
plain notice to Secretary Cages single
gold standard policy that it does not
command the United States senate. 1t
indicates, also, that in all plans for
currency reform any bill which reaf-
firms the gold standard will meet an
unSurmOuntable obstacle in the senate.
The impressive feature of the short
but decisive battle for silver was the
confessed helpleSsneSS of the gold men.
They sat glOOmily in their seats and Of
fered no obstruction, while the silver
senators marched in and took the right
of way almost without question. The
resolution provides:
That all bonds in the United States
issued or authorized to be issued, IN
der the said acts of congress hereinbe-
fore recited, are payable, principal and
interest, at the option of the govern
ment of the United States in silver dol
lars of the coinage of the United States.
containing 41212 grains eacho standard
silver; and that to restore to it's
coinage such silver coins as legal tend
er in payment of said bonds, principal
and interest, is not in violation of the
public faith nor in derOgation of the
rights of the public CREDITOR
Mr. Vest of Missouri the member of
the finance committee who had charge
OF the resolution, spoke briefly upon it,
but diSclaimed anV desire at this time
to thresh over the old straw of finan-
cial discussion. He believed, however
that the time was ripe for a reiteration
with emphasis of the declarations of
the Stanley Matthews resolution, which
had been placed on the statute books
20 years ago, particularly in view of
recent statements OF the secretary of
the treasury, in which the president,
who had, as a. member of the house,
voted for the original resolutions, evil
IDENTIFY cOncurred.
The motion of Mr.. Vest to take up
the Teller resolution was carried by the
following vote:

They Have Great Confidence
in the Admiral.
THE GENERALS ARE FEARED
Unwillingness to Disarm Caused by
Fear of the Withdrawal of Ameri-
can Protection.

LONDON. Aug. 23.-The Associated
Press learns that the Philippine iunta in
London received dispatch from Manila
yesterday announcing that matters there
are rapidly quieting down, and that the
friction between Aguinaldo and the
Americans is disappearing.
According to the junta's advices, the
insurgents for time regarded General
Merritt and General Anderson as Marti-
nets, and feared they would adopt harsh
methods, like the Spaniards, toward the
Filipinos; but. the insurgents from the
first have had the greatest confidence in
Admiral Dewey, whom they regard as a
sort of father and the most important
American at Manila. The junta is salts
fed that all friction will soon disappear
and there will be no trouble from the
insurgents if the Americans decide TO
retain the Philippines.

Sixty-eight men we're engaged in tear
ing out the tunnel just west of Carnegie.
Last night the men had fixed rope to
pull down the west wall, and were pre-
pairing to drill holes inr blasting. Sud
denly the wall fell over on them, and
every man standing at that end of the
big excavation was buried alive. The
other workmen at once began the work
of rescue.
Most of the men employed on the
work are Italians. They go by numbers
instead of names, and nothing is known
of their relations. Their fellow-work-
men were too busy this morning SEEK
ing for more dead to identify any of the
bodies.

His Power.
EXTORTION Is PRACTICED
Insurgents Annoying Prominent Ha-
vana Men With Threatening Let
ters-Independence Doubted.

HANANA, Aug. 23.-The Spanish cruis-
er Infanta Isabel left Havana on the 18th
inst, and arrived In the vicinity of Gil
bara on the 10th. Before entering the
port she hoisted flag of truce. The
United States gunboat Nashville, which
was in port, inquired if she carried doc
uments for the American ship. The Is
abel answered in the negative, and sig
nailed that the peace protocol had been
signed. The news was received on board
the Nashville enthusiastically, the crew
cheering and shouting. When the Isa-
bel entered the port an American officer
boarded her and informed her that the
town was in the hands of General CAL
ixto Garcia.
It is reported that General Garcia, af-
ter entering Gibara, assaulted the GUS
tom-house administrator, slapping his
face and afterward ordering negro to
beat him with machete. It is also said
that Garcia demanded money from the
Gibara merchants. The merchants re-
fused to comply with his demand, where
upon he ordered that they should pay
double the amount he had at first ex-
acted.
Garcia also ordered the arrest of 14OO
Spanish residents, who were liberated
after the arrival of the Isabel. 1t is re-
ported that Garcia resigned on the 10th,
and that his command was taken over
by the leader, Luis Feria. Nothing is
known, however, in official circles re-
garding the matter.

FIRST TO BE REWARDED
Captain sigsbee the First Officer to Re-
 ceive Prize Money.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Gaptain Sigs- bee, who commanded the Maine, will be the first officer of the navy to secure an allotment of prize money on account of the war with Spain. The judge advo- cate general of the navy has transmitted to the fourth auditor the documents in the case of the collier Restormel which was captured by Captain Sigsbee when in command of the auxiliary cruiser St. Paul off Santiago, to which port the steamer was bound i'll an attempt to de- liver coal to Gervera's squadron. Had the mission of the Restormel been suc- cessful it is not likely that the Spanish vessels would have remained as long as they did in Santiago harbor, especially as they would have escaped before Adj miral Sampson had an opportunity to establish the system blockade which eventually resulted in their swift de- sluction.
 Although the Restormel was released by the American prize court her cargo was declared within the prize statutes and was appraised at $l3,0 ,0o0. Accord ing to law half of the amount goes to the government and the other half to the officers and crew of the vessel mak- ing the capture. As Captain Sigsbee at the time of the capture was acting inde. pendently of any superior officer, he will receive the maximum sGl4ce ever allowed to commanding officers by The siafutes, which is three- twenUieths Of the net pro- ceeds of the prize, amounting i'll this ln- stance to $9f5, ,Ethe.remaining $5525 being divided among all others borne on the books of the ship at the rates of their re- spective pay. Had the Restormel been of equal or superior force to the St. Paul none of the money would have been de- creed to the United States but the entire prize would have gone to the St. Paul.
 The navy department is rapidly conn pleting the adjudication of the nnmer- ous prize awards resulting from the war and in weeks time most of them will be paid. The case of the Restormel was finished first because 1t was the simplest, the most complex being those covering the destruction of the Spanish fleet in Manila harbor by Admiral Dewey's squadron, and that of the battle of July 3, the latter involving by far the great est amount of money and presenting the greatest difficulty Admiral sampson will get one-twentieth for the bout with the Cevera fleet and Admiral Schley one fiftieth

Washington, Nov Instructions nave been given to the officials at the navyyard at Brooklyn prohibiting them from commencing any new work on the armor clads in North Atlantic waters. Repairs on them are about completed and 1t is expected that within 10 days Commodore Philip will have under his command an effective force, consisting ot all the battleshins and cruisers now Iii commission, except the Iowa and Or egon, which are now at Rio de Janeiro.

 The armored cruisers New York and Brooklyn are in splendid condition; the battleship Massachusetts will have com pleted her repairs during the present week and all construction work on the Indiana will also be completed within that time. So far as the Texas is con. cerned naval officers say that a short time only will be necessary to repair her propeller sleeve.
 Just as soon us all Of tl,e armorclads are ready they will proceed to Hampton Roads, where they will find the New York awaiting them. Here the vessels will remain pending such action as may be necessary as q result of information received from Paris.
