W
Waniiixoto.v Oct. 2.V Tho confer-
onco of silver Democrats hold yester-
day to decide whether filibustering
should be resorted to was not large
nor long continued but upon its de-
cision hung the important question of
the possible defeat of tho silver repeal
bill mid certainly that of tho delay of
its passage.
They simply canvassed the situation
and concluded it was not wle policy
to attempt to make good the promise
they had made .Monday to th? silver
Republicans of making further oppo-
sition to the bill. They made that
pledge while laboring under a lit of
resentment over the defe.it of their
compromise measure but after weigh-
ing the subject fully the concluded
that while their constituents would
justify them In making us strong a
light for silver as they could make in
a legitimate and regular way their
people would not indorse them iu re-
sorting to filibustering uiethod-i. They
also rccogni.ed the fact that with a
majority iu tho scuuto against them
they would be compelled to yield
sooner or later and Unit if limy should
succeed iu getting any concession
whatever it wuild bo of very small
consequence.
Furtliermuri they contended that
if the settlement of the question should
lie longer delayed the business de
lii"-iiju iuum uu i. wo ut ine floors ui
silver. Talcing all these matters into
consideration us they also did the
physical condition of the senators on '
both sides who have been through tho
pression would be laid at the doors of
long siege they concluded to repress
their resentment nnd yield. A halt
mis called upon mi Incipient fili-
buster and the long fight was prac-
th ally at an end. Tho Republican
silver men conferred among them-
selves briefly and agreed It would be
a waste of ti ue and iu every way
foolish because iu tlio end futile to
i.nlititnifi lw Urrlit Tit. th..... I.n
list senators had nyiioil (.. nhhln 1V
tho decision of tho Republicans
-Wo were ready to goon." said .Sen- '
ators PelTerand Kyle and con d h.ivo
continued the light forsomu time with
a littlu assistance but we arc willing
to quit when both of theo'd parties do
feo. The fight has gone on long
enough and has terminated In a way
to show-that neither of these parties
are friendly to silver Wo feel bid y
to have silver receive this setback but
politically we view the situation with
complacency. Wo cannot mourn for
it Is not our funeral Wo o.xneet the
result to make million) of votes for
the Populists."
Tlio silver Republicans and repeal
Republicans made a mild but in-
effectual attempt to unite forces be-
fore tho close by bringing Senators
Sherman and Teller together but
they soon found they could not unite
upon n measure that would stand any
likelihood of receiving tho necessary
majority to insure its passage. The
repeal Republicans expressed them-
c.i..nL .... .. t:i:.w. n ..... ... .. i.tti
nun to i- iiiiiil; .w on liiJiil b ll mil pro-
... . .. " . ' ' . . .
viuing lor the purchase anil coining of
J.000000 ounces of hllvcr per month
until .lannary Islai and also prov.d-
ing for the issuauco of i'.'OO.OOu.OJO
wortli of bond. The silver llepubli-
cans did not consider that this propo-
sltiou olVercd much more In tho inter-
est of silver than the compromise
measure which was knocked over
Monday. They also said it would bo im
possible on account of the bond propo
sltion to got the support necessary to
pa's the bill from tho Democrats and
ropuusis.
I'pon being asked whether ho did
not ininu h wouut nave necn better
for Um interest of silver for the silver
Uepublieans to accept the Democratic
compromise bill than to refuse that
ami
nil take unconditional icpcal Sena-
ir Toller said:
"l'osslbly it would have been and
tor
nrob.iblv that wntilil linvn tww.n ilnnn
if it had been In our power to control
tho matter. Such was not the case i
however. That was distinctively a
Democratic measure and the agree-
ment for its support was signed by
Democrats who did sign It with tho
understanding that if all tho Demo-
cratic senators did not sign It was
not to bo binding on any of them
llenco when eight of tho Democratic
senators refused to give their assent
to tho compromise the agreement was
no longer binding upon thoso who had
signed. Furthermore there would
have been no uhanco of gutting tho
bill through even if the silver Re-
publicans had accepted it after the ex-
ecutive hat) signified his approval of
tho bill.
"It was not only impossible t hen to
get tho additional eight Democrat c
signatures but those already obtained
could not be held. If therefore ull
the silver Uepublieans had allowed
themselves to bo controlled by
tj.
agreement tho compromise bill
would havo been no stronger
than for Instance tho free
coinage amendment not so strong
even. Jt would have had only tho
support of tho silver Democrats and
tho sliver Uepublieans. It would
probably not have gotten any of the
I'opullst support. As a matter of
fact however It would havo been Im-
possible to hold the silver Democrats.
Koine of them were only too well
pleased to havo tho agreement de-
clared on" for they did not consider
mo compromise as desirable as uncou
iiuionai ropoal "

by Thursday and the opinion is gen-
eral that tho bill will bo well discussed
before the end of tho week
There Is already talk of future nil ver
legislation. One of tho loadlnir advo-
cates of repeal Is quoted as saying that
ho will introduce n free coinage bill
upon tho assembling of tho regular
congress. i
Senator Sherman said that he was
thinking of the introduction of a IkiiuI
bill mid that it would probablv inci-
dentally make some provision for llie
uso of silver. Many other s"imtirs
have financial bills iu contemplation.
The outlook In indeed goo.l that tho
regular session will be flooded with
financial bills and no one need be sur-
prised if the regular se-sIon should
develop a reeonl of financial discus-
sion almost as important as the one
now closing.
Most of the Republicans and the
Populists and many of the Democrats
said thej- expected congress to adjourn
early next week until the first Mon-
day in December.

W siiinoto.v Oct. '.':.-After some
minor business had been transacted In
the house yesterday the debatu on the
bankruptcy bill was resumed.
Mr. Denson took the Hour iu opposi-
tion to tho measure. Ho described it
length the depression of the debtor
class which he ascribed largely to the
demonetization of silver. Ho grew
heated. "Now that you huvo demon-
etized silver" he said "you propose
to inaugurate the oriiciul performance
of tlio auctioneer's hammer to com-
plete the work tlfrt has been going
on."
Mr. Patterson broko iu to deny
some of Mr. Denson's statements anil
the altercation grow lively drawing
iu lllaud anr llryan of Nebraska
Mr. Patterson objected to the state-
ment that the administration sought
to eliminate silver froai circulation
Mr. Denson inside.l such was tho
purpose of the repeal bill and Mr.
liluiid anirmed that if tho Wilson bill
passed the silver wiiuld have to be re-
deemed in gold as greenbacks were.
It would leave a standard money ab-
solutely demonetised.

Mr. llryan asked Mr. Patterson if ho
would vote for the complete repeal of
the Sherman act as demanded by the
Chicago platform Instead of u ivpctu
only of tho purchasing clause.
