Mr. Vest ot MIsSourI toloweJ with a Ilml-
lar dispatch tram tim St. LouIs Chamber ot
Commerce. This WS the text for one at the
most strring scenes that the senate has
heard ) In many daY8.
Scntor VClt BllI that the Chamber ot
Commerce oC St. Louis . did not represent the
- feeling oC the people ot 1lsourl. or the coun-
try on the financial question. He dhl not be-
levo the people favored a retirement oC $500 . -
00,00 of greenbacks and treasury nets and
the substitution ot no currency at all . He did
not believe thlY favored gold oblIgations ruu-

Refsh ] lulmeston that posterity should be Icr
to pay this ball lebt The obligations ] of the
senate were as binding toward posterity as
toward the present generation . I was as
much tIm duty ot the senate to protect the
future as to adopt the suggestion oC the pres- '
Ment to look : rer the Ilresen\ and let the
future lock after Itself.
Mr. Vest was hy this tIme putting such
energy and dramatIc force In his words that
ho WIS given eager attentIon from worts senators -
tor/ and from crowded , galleries .
"
"The president has declared war on silver . "
proceeded the senator. " 10 would ] malw us (
accessories to this effort to fIx thc gold stand-

The senator asked IC any man really be-
leved the supposed emergency could not be
met by treasury payments In Ilvcr . And yet
the Impression was being conveyed to the pub-
lIe that the country was on the brink of ruin.
I the prehleIL had ) the power he would force

raising his rIght hand In emphasis , "so Car as
1 am concerned , I wi never vote to Issue

Mr. Culom rose at this point with a question -

Idr. Vest paused for a moment before replyIng -

to let the chairman ot the commilee to an-
swer than question , but In his absence I wIll
say I don't believe therC Is the slIghtest pos- wt
slhlty of the finance commIttee agreeing on

AKIN TO A SENSATION.
- \ The announcement the first that had
* - ' openly been made as .to the situation In the
fInance commIttee . was receive wIth marked
attentIon and evIdent surprise.
Mr. ' Vest proceeded to say that the talk
about lack of revenue , as suggested by Mr.
Cnlom ! , was a waste of words. Ho had
talied wIth the secretary ot the treasury
only tile day before yesterday and bad been
assured that the revenues were ample.
Mr. Cullom-So the secretary ot the treas-
Uly Is ready to assure us ho has all the rev-
enuo ho want ?
Mr. Vest-Yes ; It is Increasing from day
to day to such an extent that there prom-
fees to 'be ' a large surplus.

' e' Mr. Vest-I make the statement as Information -
formation from the secretary ot the treasury.
Iesumlng his speech Mr. Vest said ho was
against tim gold atandard. I was a badge
-
of oppression. - .
"All am I to be made accessory to the
perpetuation oC this gold system ? " asked the
senator. "It. Is not pleasant , " ho continued ,
d1 "to flitter wih the head of my party. 1 have

not add to the discord within our great party

ton that party fealty could never lead him
to aid In fastening the
gold standard on the
' country. . I the St. LuIs Chamber oC Com-

WASHINGTON . Jan 30.-The banking alt

one-hulf ot SUch cash reserve shah nt all
times be In sold coin or gold certificates.
The committee Is discussing an amendment
proposed by Representative Warner of New
York authorizIng tim treasury to use the
surplus to retire all legal tenders , including
treasury notes , as provided In the original
Carlisle bill.
At yesterday's sessIon of the committee
three democratic members were absent ,
Three democratic members werc absent
Culberson of Texas , Ellis of Kentucky and
Johnson of Ohio. The democrats assert that
they have an understanding by whIch they
will report the bill to lie house , saying that
those who are oppose to the measure itself
are willing to give It I hearing , and charge
the republicans with adopting dilatory tactics
to delay action.
acton.
The afternoon session oC the committee
was more harmonious than that oC the morn-
mor-
lag and resulted In the adoption ot two
amendment to the bill. The first , proposed
by Mr. Haughlen . republican Wisconsin ,
reduces the. tax upon the circulation from
1 per cent per annum to one-fourth of 1
per cent payable semi-annually. The second
proposal , by Mr. Walker of Massachusetts .
strikes out the fifth section at the bill , that
requiring Import duties to be paid In gold.
The vote upon It was six yeas , four nays.
When the committee adjourn two amend-
ments were pending to be. acted upon to-
dar. One , offered . by Mr. Russel ; republican -
publican , stipulates that the retirement and
cancellation at legal tenders for each month
shall not be greater than the Increase In the
amount of national bank notes under the
operation ot the plan. This amendment was
carried when first offered and then there was
a successful motion to reconsider and post-
pone action for a day. .
The other Is Representative \Valker's
'amendment which was adopted this morning.
The Warner amendment offered yester-
day was defeated by n vote of 10 to 2 ,
Messrs. Wnrner and Walker voting for It.
When the committee took a recess nt
1:30 : for one hour the Russell amend-
ment , providing that ( lie amount oC treas-
ury notes canceled In any one month shall
not exceed the Issue In other national hank
notes for the month , was under consIdera-
lion. I was adopted' the afternoon ses-
sion. This Is regarded as the most Impor-
tant amendment yet offered at the critical
pint of tile discussion. Th republican
members supported H and some demo-
crats. Administration democrats say that
none ot lie other amendments adopted will
endanger thl success ot the bill , but they
fear that this one may.
Mr. Warner oC New York offered nn
amendment repealing so much oC all laws
and parts oC laws as limit the rate at which
the national bank currency may be retired
and prohibiting any national banking as-
Roclatlon Cram taking out additional circu-
laton within six months aCer It shall have
withdrawn any part ot Hs circulation. !

WASHINGTON , Jan. 30.-The bonding
government officials Is I subject which has
been under discussion by the hOle committee -
tee on appropriations for several days , and
the committee bas concluded that It I a field
In which there Is great room for reform. The
irregularities and lack of system , governing
the ( securities taken by the government for
cbs performance of . ofcal.du e ! . w r . first
mqulrO Into IY te experts or [ uoclery
commission and brought to the attention oC
the committee. necenUy the heads of several - .
oral departments and bureaus have been be-
fore the subcommittee of appropriations which ,
'Is ' framing this legislative bill and I bas
ben shown that the surety system Is probably
more lax than that oC any other gO'ern-
, ment. Many officers are bonded for a term
oC tour years , and if. as often happens , there
Is delay In thc appointment of the successors
and they continue to officIate tile government
Is let without any guaranty or means oC
, making good losses o any are Incurred
through their acts. This lapse Is frequent
, In the cases of first class postmasters , but
lie assistant treasurers oC the United States
present the most conspicuous examples , since
their bondsmen , according tD decisions by
!
the courts cease to h responsible at the
end oC tour years , and the government Is left
wIth 10 recourse In case oC default In the In-
cosson. terim until the appointment of their suc-
I Is apparent , however , that ther wl none i
no ( line to adolt any new plan In this resolu-
'ton ( of congress , as the committee will leave
that work for the next congress. Some neces-
sar reforms 10 go Into Immediate erect and
act as safeguards until a general system shall
be established are embodied II 1 bill Intro-
duced by Hepresentatvo Doclery. It provIdes -
vIdes that all bonds ot UnIted Stales officials
shall be examined at least every two years by
this officials requIred by law to take and ap-
prove them for this purpose ot ascertaining
the sufficiency of the amount anti the sureties .
Also requiring the same officers to cause
bonds to be newell four years aCer theIr
date , strengthened or renewed oCe ler It
thought necessary , with dls'eton , however ,
to waive the requirement of a new bOlt for
the period oC service of a bonded officer after
thin expiration of his term and pending the
apPointment oC Ills successor , time liability oC
principal and sureties on this orrgllal 'boml to
continue during this porlod.
The house has authorized appropriations

WASHINGTON , Jan. 30.-The senate went
Into executive .sesslon at 2 o'clock today to
consIder the Japanese treaty , and the debate
was immediately taken up where It was left
oft when the subject was last under conslder-
alon ten days ago. There was a running debate -
bate , In which almost ito entire senate par-
ticipated. and It soon became evIdent the senators -
ators who had objected to the ( treaty In its
present Corm would continuo to urge them
until the treaty should be amended or ratified
over their obJecton , The session continued
two hours and resulted In the ratification of
the treaty as presented to the senate pro-
vided that It should go Into effect after five
years , and that after remaIning In erect for
ten years It could be abrogated by either
party to It after a year's notice . Senator
LIndsay offered an amendment striking out
lie ten years' provision a 'a substitute for
Senator Fryo's amendment which was directed -
rected at preserving the American right to
impose discriminating duties In case oC goods
carrIed In American ahlps. Tile Fryo amend-
meat had been lie bone oC contenton during
Ithe entire session , as It was In the previous
sessIon devoted to thIs treaty , but It was at
once recognized the Lindsay substitute would
cover the entire question . and It was accepted
wIthout question by those who had contended
for the I rye resolution as a solution at the
entire problem In that It nlorded means oC
securing early relief In that or any other
direction In case It should be necessary. The
nmendment met little opposition and was
agreed to without a division Tile ratitica-
