very nenily correct. The vnrious county nlli-
nnccs have mndo a careful canvass nnd there
nro fully Unit many families which need

have already been ordered to this county nnd
several car loads have been distributed. Tlio
banks hero have ordered a car load of coal
each in addition to the above. .Everything
so far has been shipped free over the railroad ,
nnd this fact has materially assisted the re
lief committees. Other years there has been
a constant stream of eastern money pouring
in hero from farm loans and the bankers have
supplied the local demand for short tlmo
monov , but iiow tncso sources of revouuo are
cut off and no loans are being made. Bonkers
nnd loun men all over the country nro hedg
ing against publio sentiment nnd tbo probable
action of the coining legislature. Farmers
hero believe that n stringent Interest law will
mnko money plenty nnd lower the rate to 7 or
8 per cent per annum , while the bankers
claim that most of the money loaned is bor
rowed by ttiem at 8 per ci-nt.'nnd they must
mnko their running expenses nud profit above
that amount. But little Is being Uono hereby
by cither farmers or business men except to

Secretary IVimlom Confers "With the
Krpublionn Senatorial Committee.
WASHINGTON , Dec. 15. ThorepuDllcansen-
utorial caucus committee today had a long
consultation with Secretary Windotnrospcct-
ng the formulation of a financial relief meas
ure. The vnrious propositions contained In
.ho Shermuu and Plumb bills were iakcn up.
The scretary endowed the proposition to rc-
duce the compulsory holding of United States
bonds by national banks and commended the
; > reposed Issue of 2 per cent bouds. In ro-
jard to the proposition to purchase ttio exist-
ng surplus of silver bullion now in ttio eoun-
, ry , Secretary Wlnaom took positive grounds
n favor of tbo purchase as a means of en-
iianclugtho prlco of silver nnd relieving the
financial btrlngoucy. Ho suggested , how
ever , that it might bo prudent to restrict by
law the amount of this surplus silver pur
chased iu one month.
The caucus committee referred his sugges
tions to a subcommittee Sherman , Allison ,
Aldricb , Plumb and Teller. After delibera
tion the sub-commlttoo readied a decision ,
which was promptly ratified by the full com
mittee and will be submitted to the caucus
tonight in the shape of a bill to bo druf ted by
Sherman. The main features will bo a
provision for the purchase of Sr.,000,000
worth of silver surplus Within one year , not
to exceed $ ; t,000,000 worth in any one month
( in addition to the purchase of1,500,000
ounces per month now required by law ) i the
Issue of 'J per cent bonds not to exceed $100-
000,000 , in amount , and the purchase of suffi
cient silver bullion ( In addition to the fore
going requirements ) to muko good the de
ficiency in the national bank circulation
whenever that circulation falls below $180-
000,000 ( by means of ttio issue of treasury
notes based upon bullion thus purchased ) .
In case bullion in sutllclcnt amount to meet
this deficiency cannot bo obtained the de
ficiency in circulation will bo made good by
tbo issuance of ordinary treasury notes. In
addition the bill contains a clause providing
that when the prlco of silver shall for ono
year remain constantly p.t or above legal
"p.ir" with gold , nny holder of bullion may
deposit it with tbo treasury and have it
coined into standard silver dollars or receive
treasury notes therefor.
W'nlli ) the committee neglected to take
specficatlon upon the subject of reducing the
amount of the compulsory holding of United
States bonds by national banks , nil the mom-
bow appeared to bo in favor of legislation for
that purpose.
The report did not meet with the unani
mous approval of the committee or the sub
committee in every particular.
The republican senatorial caucus tonight
discussed the report of the caucus committee
agreed upon today. The 2 per cent bond pro
ject found few friends ana was quickly
knocked out. The ? 5,000,000 bullion purchase
seemed to have strength , but neither on that
nor the other propositions was final action
taken. There was a great deal of discussion.
which may bo summarized as indicative of
the willingness of a strong majority of re
publican scnn'ors to considerably enlarge the
monthly purchases of silver bullion , possibly
to the extent ot ) ,000)00 ( ) or * rOOJKK ( ) . An
other caucus will bo held soon. The elections
bill was not mentioned tonight.

government , through all the troublous times
that followed , so that on ono hand
no just power of the general government
should bo lost , and on the other
no just right of the state or of the citizen

worthily has the task bocn dono. "

for i'anicll.
NEW VOIIK , Dec. 15. John Dillon has Is
sued a lengthy loiter to the press as to tlio
more recent events in Ireland. Ho says Unit
ho has been from the first qtrongty opposed
to any personally offensive attacks on Par-
noli , although it must bo admitted that the
cruelly unjust charges ho has leveled iiftnlnst
the members of his party and the oxtiaordl-
nory violence of the methods by which ho
has Bought to suppress all expression of
opinion hostile to himself , renders It very
difficult for his opponents to maintain .nil
attitude of moderation. Dillon deprecates in
strong terms some of the language which has
been used in Ireland on both sides tbo post
'ow days' . Hcfcrriugagidn to the attacks on
ladstono and Morley , ho says hols convinced
.hnt there is not a shadow of fouudntlon for
.ho charges mndo ni/alnst them , ' 'Charges
iVhich would never have been imagined ,
much loss uttered , " says ho , ' 'but for the
O'She.i divorce case and Gladstone's letter. "
Dillon speaks of the charges against Glnd-
itonu nun Morley as u gross nnil monstrous
nsult. Dillon says that his reliance for tbo
mtlsfactory character of the homo rule bill
ins always been not on the pledges of nnv
Knghsh statesman , but on the honesty and
ndcpcndenco of the Irish party , and , above
all , on the unity of the national feeling of tbo
'rish rnco. Ho still has hopes thnt
ho conference between O'llrien nnd t'arnoll
tuny result in restoring unity , but in
the meantime Parnell has plunged Ireland
Into a contllct which wrings the heart of
every Irishman with pain ana humiliation.
Ho has done this for n purely personal end
"
and Dillon feels bound to say "that since ho
commenced his Irish campaign J'arnelt has
uscdlanguago and douo nets revolting to
every f mo born man , nnd if ho ( Dillon ) could
meet I'arncll in Ireland ho should toll him ,
unless ho very much altered his course , that
no was not a tit leader for nnr.tlon aspiring to
lie freo. Dillon. In closing , strongly appeals
, o the pcoplo In Ireland , notwithstanding
ho provocation , not to forget the respect duo
' 'arncll for his past mighty work.
