Washi.votox Oct 19. The ncnato
met at 10 o'clock yesterday nnil as
soon ns a cjnortmi was obtained tho
tlWeussl m was renewed on the ques-
tion of tho amendment to the jour-
nal. Mr. Morgan reopened It and devoted
lnuvli of his speech to -the position of
Mr Hill to whom ho referred as an
astute politician with a conscience so
easy that he cnulil change his opinion
at his political necessities might re-
quire. Ite explained that the eltcct
of his proposition to repeal the wliolo
if the Sherman act would bo to bring
Into full force all of tho llhind act
thut had been repealed by it. It
would take from the secretary of tho
itreasuty the "discretionary power"
ito coin silver and would make It Im-
perative. One of the most ellectlve and amus-
Jng points made by Mr. Morgan was
when In sneaking of executive Inter-
ference he suld: "Tho trumpet was
sounded tho forces wer.s marsh lied
the clock had struck at the White
.house and tlia cuckoos had all their
Jicads out of the boxes and responded."
When Mr. Morgan ha I concluded
cm motion of Mr. Voorhees the Dolph
notion to amend the journal was laid
on the table.
This action however did not result
In the approval of Monday's journal
for Mr Teller immediately made a
like motion In regard to himself that
lie had been present at the roll call
nnd had not unswered and that his
name should be recorded Jn the
journal as present i
Mr. Tellftr then addressed the ben-
ate. He began with a declaration
that hu would not submit to be lec-
tured by the .senators from New York
and Delaware though he might sub-
mit with b'-tter grace to be lectured
toy the senator from Ohio (Mr. Slier
n'uui. ) Speaking of executive Inter-
terfercneo Mr Telloir said that the
president was entitled under the con-
stitution to submit to cougrekK ;y hat-
eve r mturcs he desired to huve con
fddcred and when he had done that
he had doue fell the constitution al-
lowed him to do. Hilt now In these
tnodein days and witha")jevv president
they were told what this senate should
do. 'l'lioy wofi! told that memborB o
the cabinet had declared In frequent
interviews that "we" tho legislative
department of the government have
made up our minds to repeal the
Sherman law. If it takes a month
tve will wait u mouth. If it takes six
months ivii will wait six months and
iv e will accept no compromise what-
ever. As to tho compromise Mr. Teller
asked who was to maku it? Was it to
lie made by the president? Who had
given Mm legislative power? What
right had ho to come and buy to bona-
tors: "This compromise is not satis-
factory to me." .Such a thing was an
usurpation. It was a violation of con-
stitutional law. It was a breach of
itlie privileges of the senate which
.ought to bo resented. No monarch
outside of Ku.ss.il would dure to mako
that statement to his parliament not
.even William of Uernauy.
Mr. '1 oiler referred to the fact that
although the queen of Kngland and
1'rincu of Wales were known to bo op-
posed to tu Jioiiju lule bill neither
of them hud yinf.itrp d express an
.opinion. If eltherp. theiu had done
.so the whole constitutional farm of
itho government of (treat Britain
.would be changed in a fortnight
tr. Daniel was the next speaker
fleferring to Mr. .Sherman's remark
.tliattlie Democrats would vote against
vthe ten commandments or the Lord's
-jirayer If proposed by Republicans
.Mr. Daniel said that Mr. .Sherman was
4tiit right In saying so If those an-
.cientftiw) venerable documents woro
propositi toy tho senator from Ohio
itho Dcinoir upuld Instantly iinug-
jwe that thcra was jiut such u trick
Sibout it as there had k-c ubout the
hermuu net
Tnon he took- back tho word trick
anil substituted "scheme" for It. And
now Jio added tho senator from Ohio
was not wnly the leader but also its
lecturer fughtcr. He referred to
Mr. Mills' etiitKjneiit that ho would
not voto for any compromise; and he
:iUi-il that senator whether ho wus
n'a ly to submit tho question fy) a ma-
jority of Doiuoorats. Was ho ready to
j'o into ronclavo with them and abide
the result?
There was no reply from Mr. Mills
nl though that senator occupied a coal
immediately In front of Mr. Daniel
nnd tho latter uid; "I am readv to go
into kucIi a conclavu uild I will abide
tho resulL"
Mr. Hill asked Mr. Daniel whether
if the senate in tho first congress had
adopted a eodo of rules with a pro-
vision that they should not bo changed
without the consent of two-thirds the
senate would bo liound by that.
Mr. Daniel bald he did not like to
commit himself by answering thut
when there was no such question pre-
sented to the senate. He m glit not be
u very good lawyer but ho was too
good a lawyer to answer hastllv a
. nropositlon which ho was not discuss-
aj aud had n thing to do with what
)ie vas discussing
Mr II III remarked that If tho pre-
siding' ofHcer of thu body agreed with
liiui the bill would pasi In spite of all
the obstructions of the minority.
In closlnj his speech Mr. Daniel
said: "I am here to legislate and I
want to proceed to legislate in on
orderly straightforward way. I do
not wnnt you gentlemen (Democratic
senators) to lecture me about breaking
up the- pemocratio jjarty as long us
you stand in the minority of tho party
and uro unwilling to abide by ttt
judgment"
When Mr. Daniel closed there was
another roli call and fifty-seven sen-
ators answered.
Mr. Voorhees rising to a personal
privilege read an article published in
n Washington paper as to a meeting of
the finance committee in which ho
was supposed to statn (and by author-
ity) that no compromlso could take
place on the repeal bill in which
either himself or the administration
could be considered a factor. It was
simply and only necessary for him to
say that there was not one single word
of truth in the statement.
Mr. Mills replied tithe crltl Ism of
Mr. D.tuiol because ho would not go
Into a Democratic caucus. lie argued
that theie was a permanent para-
mount power in each house to make
the rules necessary for the dispatch of
public business.
Senators in the majorltv had been
taunted he said because they had not
come to each senate meeting prepare I
for a test of physical endurance to
sit up all night to hear somebody
road pipers and to bo tortured every
live minutes by being compelled to
wake up and come in and answer to
their names and take their punish-
ment. In conclusion he slid: "Tho
responsibility is placed on the majority
to make rules and to legislate. If It
does not do so an Intelligent ami in-
dignant public opinion will hold that
majority responsible."
On motion of Mr Voorhees the sen-
ate at 5:15 took a recess till 10 a. in.
to day.

It Is asserted the committee having
the matter in charge progressed far
enough to prepare the rough draft of
a bill which is to be submitted to the
senate as soon as a majority of the
senators can be consulted upon Its
merits. The story alio it asserted that
the bill which is to be submitted
would simply provide for an extension
of thu patent law for u year from the
ltt of ijoyt .JulV) but it was nl-o im-
possible to gut continuation of this

The one great obstacle which ap-
parently stands in tho way of progress
is the altitude of Mime of the lepeal

how impossible it would be for the

CnirAOo Oct. l'.. Secretary of

Populists a touch in his speech before
thu national commission of the
World's Columbian exposition yester-
day. Secretary Morton came here to
tnUo part in the fair qui. tty but yet
tho commission learned of his pres-
ence and an invitation was fortwith
cnt to Mr. Morton to eorne out with
thu national commission which invi-
tation wus ac-epted. He was warmly
welcomed by President Palmer after
which Mr. Morton said in purl:

to think for tho farmers We all un-
derstand that so far grange and alli-

farming; that they have been worked
to use the parlance of tho day by
journeymen fanners who have for
political piirniMos funned the farmers
Tliese organizations as a rule huvo

agiiculture. They have instructed
the public us to how banks ought to

to be managed; they huvo even gone
so fur as to pi escribe new methods of

The many fullacles which have been
evolved for Iho farmer for his best in-
terests are very catch mg. There Is
nothing in tins world m attractive to

something out of nothing. The teach-
ing of manv of the journeymen farm-

try is simply a legul fiction. They

it became money.

CiiiCAtio OeL 19 The long post-
ponetl annual mcotliig of tlto Haulier's
association of Amnrlea began htiro
this morning with ninny of tho most
distinguished flminriers of the coun-
try in attendance
After snuio preliminary work had
been disposed of Comptroller of the
Currrnoy Kckels was introduced and
sjoke as follows:
It is no exaggeration of staliMiient
to say that the happen tigs of the
month past from May to September
inuat bo accounted the "most remarka-
ble in every phase of financial bear-
ing ever cperiencetl by the American
people.
These mouths witnessed the closing
nl uioii-than lin national bunks and
not less than "imi state savings and
private ones many of which under
ordinary olicu instances would huvo
been solvent and under fostering caro
und improved conditions have re-
opened their doors for business again
to enjoy I lie confidence of tin1 very
ones most iloiibifiil of ihein Today
wi greatly has the situation changed
that having in mind the past both in
the severity of the strain undergone
und tho continuance of It it would ha
In the light of present conditions both
unfair and unjust to deny that the
bunkers of this country huve exhib-
ited masterful skill In coning with a
situation rendered complex beyond
anything heretofore known by the
withdrawals of currency by depositors
on the ono bund anil tho pleadings
for assistance o:i the part of mer-
chants und manufacturers on the
oilier.
The course pursued lias caused no
depositor to complain while the gen-
erous treatment of mercantile inter-
ests in extension of credit and renewal
of paper has prevented a panic In
other directions tho far reaching
effect of which cannot be estimated
Hut while boasting of this new evi-
dence of tho ability of our people to
withstand the severest of financial
ailment it will iuV do to count ttu
much uiiini thu ptogicss ma.lo toward
recovery nnd recuperative powers
shown. Complete return to financial
health cannot bo had so long as the
first leal cause which covered all
the hind with doubt and uncertainty
and filled the people's minds with
fears us to the stability of our finan-
cial iustutlotis yet remains to plague
the lines of business create dUtrust
at homo and ilnqad as to tho value of
America i securities and bring to
naught the. efforts of those who In
tho midst of present disaster and
threatened ruin yet maintained fu 1
faith in the coming of better times.
Fntll our financial laws accord with
Iht.so that govern the world's trade
our currency takes on a uniformity
und elasticity that now aro wholly
lacking and our people aro rid of the
nernUlous doctrine thnt money which
is cheap and plentiful is a blessing
und a source of wealth insto id of u
curse and tlo causa of financial
paiiio anil uilmuto poverty wecunnot
but expect ut stilted periods a recur-
