ital News.
. Washihotow, Aug. 17. The morn
ing hour in the senate, after the in'
traduction of bills, was largely oc
cupied oy a discussion a to tne over
loading of government buildings in
Washington with public books and
documents, Mr. Vest proposing a rem
ay oy tne passage ol a bill appro
priating $300,000 for a building to be
known as the hall of records.
At the close of the morning hour
notice was given by Mr. Voorhees that
be would not ask action to-day on the
bill to allow national banks to in
crease tneir circulation to tne par
value of the bonds deposited by them,
but would do so to-morrow.
Thereupon an amendment to that
bill was offered by Mr. Cockrell,
authorizing the secretary of the treas
ury to redeem at par and accrued in
terest such of the two per cent bonds
as might be presented for redemption
t and to pay for them in. new legal ten
der notes. This proposition an
peared to Mr.' Sherman ' : as
unwise and unbusinesslike, and he
stated the objection which occurred
to him against the amendment. This
precipitated a discussion in which Mr.
Cockrell ridiculed the idea of letting
the national banks increase their cir
culation while his proposition to in
crease the greenback circulation waa
opposed by the senator from Ohio, the
friend and supporter of national banks
and the great gold monopolist
Mr. Borry, Democrat, Arkansas, then
addressed the senate in advocacy of
the double standard of gold and all
ver. ,
Mr. Oalllnger spoke next and at the
close of his speech the senate on mo
tion of Mr. Cockrell, went into execu
tive session.
Dlseoaelon la the House.
Washzhotoj, Aug. 17. After adopt
ing a resolution calling on the secre
tary of the treasury for information
respecting silver purchases, the house
to-day resumed the debate on the
Wilson bill, Mr. McCall (Sep., Massa
chusetts) speaking1 for the bilL
Mr. Coombs of New York, followed.
While speaking for the repeal of the
purchasing clause of the Sherman act,
no referred to notes and thereby
broke the natural flow of his elo
quence. Mr. Bryan, Democrat, of Nebraska,
attacked the president's message in
vigorous terms. The recommenda
tions of the president meant the burial
of silver with no promise of resurrec
tion. They were an argument for the
single trold standard. They led to
gold monometallism over whose door
waa written: "Abandon hope all ye
who enter here."
After Postmaster Koblager.
Washington, Aug. 17. Postmaster
General Blasell to-day took up the
long neglected report of the three in
spectors, two of them being Republi
cans, who examined the Kansas City
po to Sloe. While Nofainger ia ex
onerated from any guilty kuowltdge of
or complicity In the wrongful practices
which the investigation reveals, he is
unanimously charged with such a laok
of executive ability as necessarily
brought the efficiency of the ofltot to
a low ebb. The report bears more se
verely on the conduct of the office
than anyone had anticipated, and it ia
aid at the department that Dr. Not
singer's term of service must be
brought to a conclusion in the inter
est of the efficiency of the offioo.

trace of men or horses. The sheriff,
ne county attorney, Uounty Clerk II

to tne place and lound the oart and
other things as Mr. Gibson had reported.
Everything indicated that foul play
had been done. After 'searching about
tnree-quarters 01 a mile from where
the cart was found, the body of a man
was found in a bad state of decomposi

man about five feet ten inches tall, but

Washinoton, Aug.: 16. Before be
ginning hi speech yesterday in the
senate on the silver issue Mr. Vest had
read the declarations in th Repub
lican and Democratic platforms on the
subject of sliver in order to show that
both parties were practically agreed
on that question lie said that it was
time for the people of the United
States to know whether politics were
a juggle and s fraud, or whether the
solemn declarations of parties were
worthy the confidence of a free people,
tie had been known as the firm
and unshrinking friend of the presi
dent of the United State and
had in all hi camoaifrn neeehe in
Missouri declared Mr. Cleveland to be
bimetalllst like himself, snd that
they only differed in reference to th
ratio, lie had the right to make that
statement, because Mr. Cleveland had
accepted the nomination on a plat
form which pledged the Democratic
party te blmeUlll. , ,It had been
welt known that the Democratic party
stood on the doctrine of bimetallism
that it had met in Chicago and
nominated Grover Cleveland for th
presidency. He did not want to say,'
now, that the president was opposed
to bimetallism, or that he would not
give his executive sanction to a meas
ure to coin silver at a commercial
ratio with gold, but he did undertake
to say that the president' message
was most significant for what it failed
to say. He undertook to say, with
the greatest respect for the president
and without the slightest doubt of his
honesty of purpose, .that when he
failed, In that great state paper, to say
one word in respect to bimetallism, be
certainly meant that a consideration
of the question of free coinage of sil
ver at any ratio was so impracticable

In replying to questions by Mr.
Gray of Delaware Mr. Vest asserted
that any discussion on the subject
would be imperfect and unsatisfactory
which did not admit, on both sides.
what was known to every Intelligent
man, that If the volume of money waa
increased the prices ot commodities
went up, and that if the volume
of money was decreased, the
price of commodities went down.
He had seen the day in the
vicissitudes of his life when 830 of
paper would not buy a loaf of bread,
and when a five dollar gold piece would
buy a house and lot It was not nec
essary for him to say when and where
that was because he did not wish to
revive war Issues. And so, if one-half
the coin currency of the country were
struck down the burdens of those who
owned money would ba doubled, and
the prices of commodities would be put
down beyond computation.
Mr. Vest spoke of the bimetallism
of France, and declared that to-day
the French people were financially the
first people In existence. The Frenoh
peasantry hoarded their five frano
piece, and so. in the United State.
the colored men of the Houtb would
hoard silver dollars if they could get
them. Why, he askei, should not the

Mr. Vest spoke of the unfortunate
condition of the miner of the West,
and aald that the somewhat dramatic
remark of an ex-senator recently that
in the extreme West the people were
crying for bread and that in New
York they were crying for go'd, was
literally true. Suppose, said he, that we
were called upon to-day to pas a law
topping the factories of New England,
what prospects would we have from
that section? Suppose we were called
upon to strike down the wheat culture
of Dakota and of the Red river of the
North, would we not expect to hear
protest against it? "If I were," he
said, 'from one of tlie hllver produc
ing states. I would fight thi detnnne
tlzation of silver a I f.uplu thu fjroe
bill because it Involve all, that thos
people should hold dear In the way of
property rights and of th comfort of
life." - . v - ! ,
In conclusion, Mr. Vet repelled th
idea of there being a necessity for In
ternational agreement on the subject
of silver.

pal scene of action of the financial
battle wa shifted to th senat yes
terday and raged with varying in
tensity and interest throughout th
afternoon. . Immediately after th
preliminary opening business had
been transacted, Senator Gordon of
Georgia recalled a plank in th last
Democratic platform by presenting as
measur to suspend for ninety day
tb law Imposing a ten per cent Us
on state bank iue. 11 declared It
would give relief to th country la
pueen day and would max It posal-
Die to move in immense cotton crop
in the South. The proposition wa
not received with any particular
warmth by tb senate, and Mr. Gor
don asked it reference to the finan
cial committee and said he would de
mand a report yea or nay on th
measure at an early day.
Mr. voorhees seportod back from
the finance committee th national
bank bill Introduced by him Monday,
The vice president uked if thr
wa objection to the immediate con
sideration of tb bilL
Mr. Cockrell: Ther ia objection.
because there are a number of sena
tors who desire to be heard on thi
proportion and who will have amnd
menu to offer to giv to th masse of
the people the same right a ar con
ferred on the national banks, and to
put a stop to favoritism and proserin
tive legislation. We hav just a
much money in the country a we ever
bad. I shall never give my vot to
any diu tnat tend to recognise th
right of national bank to bun and
control th paper money of the coun
try." After the Voorhees bill had gon
over on th objection 1 1 Mr. Cockrell,
the latter gentleman asked the senat
to consider and pass the house joint
resolution for the payment of mileage
to senator and representative for th
present session. Thi gave Mr. Fry
of Maine a chance, which he availed
himself of, of ridiculing the idea of
the public duty which would postpon
relief for the people and make hast
to provide relief for senators and
members.
Mr. Frye was asked whether he ob
jected to the consideration of th
joint resolution. He declined to do
so, but Mr. l'effer stepped into the
breach with an objection and th
joint resolution went to the calendar.
The Lee Mantle case, involving the
question of the right of governors ot
states to appoint senators, under cer
tain circumstance wa then taken up
and Mr. Canton of Virginia, addred
the senate briefly in support ot Mr.

Voorhees then introduced ft joint reso
