The president was not to exorcise those powers. It was the dolo- paled agent ot congress , the secretary , who reported to congress direct , and not through the president. Mr , llutlcr May 1 Inquire If the secretary of the treasury has asked for the authority which the senator" ! * claiming he ought to have ! Mr. Shcrmnn would not like to answer that. that.Mr. Mr. Butler It must bo a puhllc matter. Mr. Shcrmnn I do not think he asks for it I cull nay ho docs not ask it now. Mr Butler That must ho n matter of luibllc record. If ho has , certainly ho should communicate It to congress. Would Ho n Dellcnte Mutter. Mr. Khormnn I do not know of any record that pertains to the subject. I should think H would bo a very dellcnto matter for the ccrotary of the treasury to attempt to originate the Idea when the congress of the United States Is the proper place for It. Mr. Teller Would there bo any Impro priety. It the secretary thought It necessary to sell bondfl , on his part to address a coin- iminiontlon to congress on the subject ? Mr. Sherman No. Mr. Teller Would It not bo the proper thing to do so If ho thought ho ought to sell bonds ? Mr. Sherman The secretary never vol unteers advice. The senator may secure his opinion by a simple resolution. Mr. Teller If thcro Is a deficiency In the revenues now , and likely to bo In the future , I ask the senator whether that Is not a proper subject for the president of the United States to address congress on under the constitutional provisions thit he shall Inform congress as to the condition of tlto country , etc. Hmv It Mlclit tin I > nnr. Mr. Sherman That has been done : per haps the senator overlooked It. It has been done by the finance committee calling on the ncrretary of the treasury as to the nature of the deficiency , how much ills , etc. Mr. Teller What I asked was whether the president could not , under the exercise of the power conferred on him by the consti tution , to keep congress advised as to the condition of the country , make such a com munication i Mr. Sherman Undoubtedly he could ; but the senator , who has been a cabinet ofllccr , Is probably uwuro of the fnet that all ques tions of fhmnco are dealt directly with by the secretary of the treasury. I don't recall n single instance in which the president ad dressed concress , except In his annual mes sage , upon n financial question. Mr. Blackburn repeated his question as to whether the late attorney general had not rendered a decision that power to soil bonds existed , uiul added that the matter had gone so far that plates were engraved fiom which the bonds should bo produced. lie asked Mr. Sherman if ho did not know that was so. "I do not , " replied Mr. Sherman. Hid Not linen CoiiHUltect. Mr. Blackburn I sny I do not. I will aslc whether the senator from Ohio was not consulted nt the time on that subject ? Mr. Sherman I was not. Mr. Blacicburn I will sny to the senator that a subpoena , duces tecum , served upon the superintendent of the bureau of engrav ing and printing will bring those plates to this chamber within an hour. Mr. Shennau I should think the com mittee on finance would bo glad to see thum. Mr. Sherman continued his remarks and tent up to the desk and had read a proposi tion which ho favored providing for the sale of bonds. The proposition was as follows : Tliut to umihlo the secretary of the treasury to maintain parity of all fonns of currency coined or Usucd by tlio Unltud States uml to Miongthon nnd miilntaln the reserve In the treasury , nuthorlrcd mid icijuiiod by the act entitled.

Thu proceeds of btii-h boiuli bliull bo usud ( or the purposes delluou hi thU kocllon und nonu other. .Might Nut Xoed til U o tint Hands. Mr. Shcrmnn expressed the hope that the senators in the majority would innko SOII.Q uch provision as the one ho had road , ilo feared that in a little while the people would find that by the repeal of the purchasing clnuso of the Sherman not tiiu root of the evil nnd not hcon removed. The secretary of the treasury probably would not find it necessary to use the power to sell bonds for more than * ,10,000,000. Mr. Gormun , democrat , of Maryland fol lowed Mr. Sherman. Coiumentlnp on Mr. Sherman's spouch ho'salil : "I am surprised that ho should bring hi party questions and attempt to take party advantage of dulays or mistakes. Orlf there have been mistakes now in the closing hours of this great KtriiRglo , that thnt distinguished leader should tell us and toll the country that the measure itself will bo impotent , thut it eliminates silver or its further use from the moment. " Mr. Shormnn 1 spoke strongly in favor of the 1110 of silver to the largest possible ex tent. tent.Mr. . Gorninn If I have misunderstood the senator , all on thin side of the chamber teem to have shared with mo in misunderstanding him that the passage of thu act would not glvo the relief to the country thnt the COUM. try oxpouted ? Now , do I misrepresent the icnutorl Mr. Sherman I said it might not moot the expectations of the people. I'luilgcd to Itopsitl. Mr. Gorman If I understood the position of the democratic party in the begluninK of this controversy , It XTHS thut we plotlued ourselves to the repeal or'tho tihoruuu law. A Soaator No : a part of It. Mr. Gorman No sir ; the whole law. I do not think I am mistaken when 1 say that the distinguished senator from Ohio ( Mr , Sher man ) In an inter vio.v in his own state de nounced the repeal of the entire Shurman law and stated that he would favor the re peal of the purchasing clause only. The prcsldnnt'of the United States , anxious ana earnest in his desire for Its repeal , knew thnt ho had not the power la his own party , OK wltti his own parly , to repeal any portion of thut law , because the division is sharp and neither party would have the power to deal with this question and secure the re peal and ho wus compelled to tnke ttie terms offered by the senator from Ohio ( Mr , Shur man ) , And , then , when congress met the perfect knowledge on thu part of every In telligent man in thu union thut this party was helplessly divided upon thin question , as jour party Is hopelessly divided , it maybe bo said with truth that u larpe majority of democrats were against the unconditional re peal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman law. It was known that you had thirteen to fifteen republicans opposed to unconditional repeal. It wan believed , aid I think it Is u fact easily urovcn und plain to everybody , that a clear majority > of all the senators elected wus not in furor of unconditional re peal , but wanted some modification. Tlioso ol us who Intended to vote for its tluul passage - sage believed that wo were in the minority und the delay ol weeks became noco sary that wo may convert enough to our side to pass thu bill. Kxpreiiril Doubt , "When the debate , " said Mr. Gorman"bo- came nhurn , a doubt was expressed as to the power of the senate to pass the bill. I do hot mean the power to ream u vote , but the power to puss unconditional repeal by u ma jority. In the vary in last of the light , In the very hottest of it , the llrst note ot warning that we heard publlclj utteredcamofrouiUio eufttor from Ohio , the senator who led more than liulf of the repeal clamor , that U was .impossible to pass it. " with Mr. Sherman , published In the Cincin nati Enquirer , October fi , ISM. in which ho was quoted ns saying that ho did not bcllovo it would bo repented , "I desire to ndd only this , " said Mr. Sherman. "I bcllovo the bill would not have passed but for the abortive attempt to com promise , which , falling through , loft noth ing to do hut to pass it. However , thnt Is n matter between ourselves ! " Mr. Gorman October 4 Is the date of this interview. The senator from Ohio know perfectly , a ? every other man In the country knew , that ho wns laying down a condition to the democratic party to unlto. Ho know that that was as Impossible as It wns to fly , unless it meant nn extension of the purchase of .silver to some future period. Ilo Knew another thing that mcaiuro which would bo satisfactory to the pcoplo of whom the senator from Ohio speaks and for whom I spcnk. bharp ns the division wns upon any par ticular measure on this side , thcro wns not a democrat who voted with the desire to har monize his party ; to .sustain the only demo cratic administration wo have bad ; to make sacrifices of opinion ; to set nsldo their con victions of a lifetime nnd unlto In doing something wliie'i would relieve the business stress and save the administration. They tried to go thither ; they tried to do what was right. With the difference of views upon this flnnn- rial question between the cast and the wet the north and the south , It was Impossible to pass what wo call tn the eastern states n .sound ihunclal bill wltti bonds , unless wo had youi'co-opcrntion and the co-operation of those on that side who thought with us , and when you placed the conditions upon the democratic party , ns you Had the power to do. yielding the kov of the situation with your twenty-five or twenty-six votes , you forced us Into a position to take n stop unusual to custom of the senate. They tried to do wh.it wns right. There were many of thorn , and 1 shnro that convic tion of , these who thought it was extraordi nary , unusual and unfortunate to strUto clown summarily , nnd without nn hour's warning , a great Interest that had been huitt up and madu possible by law , no mat ter how bad nndlclous the Itius wore them selves. Their deliberations could not have been carried to a consummation , with the bonds of which the senator from Ohio speaks. CoiiipromMo trni I'omlhlc. I do not complain of him for making any suggestion us lo bonds , except as to the limo and manner of doing it , for f , from the begin ning , not of this congress but of the last , under Mr. Harrison's administration , be lieved with the extravagant appropriations thut had been mndc , with the growth of each expenditure for pensions and other wise thut could not bo eliminated , that ? there wasnot , revenue enough to pay the current expenses of the government under th present laws. If ttiero had been less partisunshlp In this chamber when it came to consider a proposition that coulO prac tically have united this Idea , If there had been no partisanship in this chamber , if wo h.id a response from the senator from Ohio and those who associated with him politically , wo could Imvc miRscd a olll repealing the purchasing clause ot the Shcrmnn law and It is a matter ot no consequence whether It took effect tomorrow or the nevt day and have strengthened the treasury by giving the secretary the power to use * iKOOUKM ( ) ( ) of gold. I am not here to violate n confidence thnt hns been given to nit ; , but I cuii say with propriety that there Is seatx-ely one of us who in the very boat of this controversy hud not been most anxious to make a suggestion nnd look to a bettor bill tlmu thu one we now havo. That bus passed. roiltl'in of the Itcpubllcani , . Mr Sherman I nm quite sure that if our friends on thu other siito lihd mudo any .such proposition us Iho senator now mentions , authoiizing the coinage of whut is culled the seigniorage und providing also for the main tenance of all sums of money nt par with eacli other und. back of that , the authority to sell i'JOO.000,000 of bonds , their proposition would probablv have been very agreeable to this side. But I understood our friends on the other Hide decliued to agrto to nny proposition taut contulnod authority to issue bonds. 1 think that was the general under standing on this side. Mr. Gorman I would not to relieve my self , or for any other purpose ia thn world , violate the confidences or repeat conversa tions that have occurred , but I have the right to say thut It would be most unfortu- nute if we were not understood to say that u proper bill nnd the bonds could bo passed without any trouble. J'robably It may prove thewlscst thing that this bill shall pass just ns It came from the com mittee. That there if to bo further trouble with our financial affairs everybody who has watched the operations of the treasury must know. Mr. President , wo have come into power und xvo have inherited u load of sin and iniquity , piled on us by another party ; the treasury bankrupt , ns the senator from Ohio says , it was bankrupt when wo accepted it. Who is responsible for it ! " Ituipuimllilllty for Approprlntluni. Mr. Sherman remarked that the last house of representatives was strongly democratic , and that all appropriations tor the support of the government originated there. Ilo thought thut both parties shared in the re sponsibility for excess of appropriations. The question iccurrod on Mr. I'erkin's amendment , and by n vote of yeas 80 und nays 41 the .senate rejected it. Mr. Hurry offered an amendment providing for the revival of the liland-AHison act und spoke In Us support. Mr. Voorhecs said nt this late hour , how ever much hu mlglit approve such a proposi tion , ha would not fool ut liberty to support It In counecuon with this bill. Mr. Harris , democrat , of Tennessee If the senator from Indiana should hereafter , report any ono of these propositions which he can approve today , his allies over there on the other side will have gone. .Mr. Voorhco * ' Pernoiinl Stniul. ' You all admit that this is a pernicious law , " Mr. Voorhecs proceeded. "All that I have undertaken to do is to clear the dock for action. The opportunity -will bo given for freer , fuiror. moro deliberate notion on propositions embodied in amendments than wo have in connection with this bill. The senator from Ohio announced hero today that I hud opposed an amendment when ho had contemplated authorizing tlio issue of L'overnnient bonds , I did. for the reason why I am opposed to all amend ments to this bill. I have not felt mjself ut liberty to volunteer measures of relief for the treasury until I should bo notified that the treasury needs assistance. I bollovo that the enactment of 1875 gives authority to the secretary of the treasury to issue bonds nrd the secretary of'fha treusury be lieves the same thing himself , " Mr. Voorheessnld ho hoped to have a vote nt ii o'clock on Monday , nnd certainly not later than 4 o'clock , on the bill. It is in- teudond to hold u continuous session on Monday till the vote Is had. Votluc on Amendment" . Mr. Berry's motion for the restoration of the Itland-AllUou measure wus defeated by u vole of ! lt ) ayes to U7 nays the hlghests vote any amendment received. Mr. Allen's "mendmont for the free coinage - ago of silver at u ratio of 10 to 1 wus rejected ill yeas , -11 na.vs. Mr. Ulai'ltburn's amendment was rejected by a vote of ' 'S to 4' .

The lirat section of Mr. Squires' amend ment wns rejected " 0 to 43. The second sec tion was withdrawn. Mr. Butler did not offer his amendment for the repeal of the state b.uik tax. An amendment offered by Mr. I'effcr wns rejected ayes , 7 ; nays , 68. Mr. Allen's amendment wus lost , tbo vote standing liS to 41. Mr. I'efTer offered an amendment , which was voted down without resorting to u roll call. call.Mr. . Harils did not offer or ask a vote upon hid amendment. Mr. Pasco offered an amendment , which was not road , but wus ordered printed with the understanding it could bo offered on Monday. The senate then went into executive ses sion , At thu expiration of which a recess w.is taken until Monday at 11 a. m. CroUun Itciulillcunt | Turu Out. CUKUIO.N , In. , Oct. 28. [ Special to TUB HBK. ] Congressman J. K. Lacey of Osku- loosa spoke to u mnull audience at the court house lust night.

WASHINGTON BUIIEAU or THE DEB ) 613 FotiUTHr.XTii STHEF.T : , V WASHINGTON- . 2 . | Mr. Drcxcl ot Omaha , who was the lowest bidder on the superstructure of the now federal building In that city , Is expected to arrlvo In Washington within a couple of days. Ho comes , it is stated , with the understanding thnt an award of contract will ho Immediately made. It is V.atcd that Mr. Drcxel can furnish Colorado granite and that material will ho used , Thcro are well grounded fears , how ever , that there will bo considerable delay la awarding the contract , a it Is believed the money appropriated for the > Oinaha federal building tins been used for other pur poses and that all of the delay which has been occasioned In awarding the contract is duo to the inability of the Treasury depart ment to sot asldo the money with which to pay the contractors. In his great silver repeal snccch today Senator Sherman iiiado a broad intimation to this point. Ho said the secretary of the treasury had diverted money from its in tended course in his efforts to meet promptly the obligations of the government. These who beard Senator Sherman say ho meant that money appropriated for federal build ings and other public improvements bad not been set aside , us custom demanded , but had been used for current obligations as they * were presented for payment. If an award of contract Is not tnado while Mr. Drcxcl is In Washington suspicion will strongly point to n diversion of the money wh'ch wns by the last congress appropriated for that purpose. Mnmlerfton Illll I'lisned. At last the Mamlcrson bill , extending the act of March ! , 1891 , relating to the great Sioux Indian reservation in South Dakota , over that portion of the reservation lying within Nebraska , has passed Doth branches of congress and will becotno a law. Senator Mandorson saw an opportunity nnd called it up In the senhto and secured Its adoption. This is the measure which passc'd the house on the 12th inst. upon motion of Representa tive Moiklojohn , who was sovcrcl.v censured by Representative Kern for his ' 'Interfer ence , " having secured the adoption of the bill during the absence of tbo latter. It will bo recalled that Mr. Kcm claimed the authorship of the measure , and regarded the action of Mr. Mctklejohn in securing action upon it oy the house ns "unbecoming a high-minded gentleman , " or words to that effect. Senator Mandcrson will no doubt be criticised by Mr. Kem for having pushed the measure through. The measure was orig inally Introduced by Senator Mandcrson in thn last congress , nnd has been referred to all along in both houses as the Mandcrson bill. bill.It It will likely bo signed by President Cleve land next week. It is an amendment to sec-1 tion 231 of the Heviscd Statutes , which was an net entitled "An Aci to Repeal the Tim ber Culture Law and fur Other Purposes , " and simply extends the provision of the stat ute so as to apply to lands on the Sioux reservation tn Nebraska us well as South Dakota. Suspended the Order. Under the recent ruling of the postitaster general , which excludes from the mails as second class matter the organs of fraternal societies , the Sovereign Visitor , which is published at Omaha and professes to bu the organ of "The Woodmen" of tbo country , was excluded on tbo ground that It did not have an actual bona lido circulation und for other reasons covered by the ruling. Today Representative Mercer called at the Post- ofllcc department and had the order exclud ing the publication from the malls sus pended , pending nn investigation as to whether it is entitled to admission into the mails as second class matter , and Postmas ter Clarkson has been instructed to admit the publication until otherwise ordered. It is represented that the paper has a olrculu tlon ol 17,000. MUcellnneuuii. An abstract of the report ot the thirteen national banks in Idaho , showing their con dition on the Urd inst. prepared at tbo ofllccof the comptroller of the currency , shows their uverugo reserve to oo but 65.25 per cent , or n fraction of 1 per cent above the requirements of the law.

While tbo steam ship Itlaba , whoso nationality is unknown , but whoso cargo was contiolied by New York shippers , was in the harbor of Rio she was levied on by Admiral Mello for flour. ' The admiral gave in exchange therefor a re ceipt for the flour , but this did not appear to bo satisfactory to the shippers. They thereupon wrote to the Department of State , not for the purpose of asking that the regu lar government of Brazil bo nsked to pay for the flour , but to luivu the department see 11 some moro satisfactory ovldcnco of liability might bo had. The reply informed the par ties interested that it was not practicable for the government to interfere In such a caso. NUT A. IF. V. T. U. AFF.lllt.
