Dr.N'vru , Cole , , May 21. In thl * morning's
Ro.sslon of the trans-Mississippi congress res
olutions wore offered endorsing the Nlca-
raugun and Hennepln canals ; the Torroy
bankruptcy bill ; favoring frco coinage of
sliver ami favoring defense for our deep
water harbors and navigable rivers.
The committee on constitution uud by-laws
reported ami inked that further tlmo bo
given for the selection of the next place of
meeting. It was not accepted and the tol-
lowing was the result : Omaha , 1(4 ( ; Now
Orleans , 10 , " > .
The announcement of the selection of
Omaha was received with cheers.
Governor L. H. Prince of Now Mexico was
called to the chair.
Hon. G. G. Syiumos by request spoke
upon silver colnngo. Thu east , lie said , was
misled by pamphlets circulated by eastern
bankers , nnd Ills argument thereafter was
lengthy uud full of figures. He asserted that
there could bo no menace in the adoption of
frco coinage , as Jap in , Spain , Austria nud
Great Britain had been running tholr mints
to their full capacity to meet iho demand
of iho world. If these moiiomulidlsls were
earnest In Ihcir arguments why did they not
export their silver to Ind hi , where It could bo
coined at I ) pur cent in advance of America !
Free coinage , the speaker declared , would
break up throe-fourths of the Kugllsh com
merce ou the S-MIS Ho closed by urging reso
lutions in favor of free coinage.
Kx-Governor George T. Anthony of Kansas
sold that gold and silver hud always been re
garded as a measure value , and as congress
wns empowered tocstabllshn uniform system
of weights mid measures , It had a right todo-
oliiro the value of silver. The silver Indus
try , he said , had been prosecuted by men
who built up palaces which could bo seen ou
every sldo in Denver nnd allowed their profits
lo overflow and bo iuvuslod In magnificent
business blocks and colossal hotels , yol they
pleaded poverty nnd upbraided Iho east for
unjust legislation. The speaker spoke of the
development of Chicago uud Its marvellous
growth , which could not bo equalled by nuy
city In the cost. Where was iho discrimina
tion , ho asked , in face of such unparalleled
Improvements.
K. P. Ferry of Utah was forced to relin
quish the chuir iu favor of Governor Prince
of Now Mexico In order to reply to Iho las' ,
speaker , ilc ueclared himself n man of busi
ness who could iot : bring to thu rostrum thu
eloquence and wit of his predecessor. He
Mild that figures did not lie , but men who
falsely applied them were frequently con
victed of untrulhfulucss. The law eslub-
Hshed by Hamilton In 171U nnd approved by
Gcorgo Washington provided for the Ireu
coinage of silver In whleh it was expressly
sllpuialod that holders of gold nud silver had
Iho right to conui forward with their bullion
nnd demand Its coinage. Tills law Had never
been repealed. They did not mic for friendly
legislation , but the unfriendly legislation
should cease. '
The meeting adjourned until S o'clock p. in.

clare that arrangements have been made bo-
twoou tholr party and the United Stales an-
thorltlcs by which the insurgent

Chilian Insurgents to the United Stales au
thorities after Iho arms have boon removed ,
pending a settlement of thu question In dis

WASHINGTON' , May 'Jl. The Paris dispatch
stating lhat the Hula will bo peaceably su r-
rendered to the United Stales by the insur
gents upon her arrival In Chili was shown to
the ohlcials of the navy department today ,
hut ono and all declined to discuss the matter
publicly. It nevertheless can bo slated iiojj' '
lively that there has been no iiojtollatluns us
reported between the Insurgent agents lu
Franco or elsewhere and the government
lospoetlnir the matter. There Is reason to
behove Unit this government extracts that
Iho Data will bo peaceably surrendered to
the United Stales by the Insurgents wnon
she roaches Chili , but that when she Is sur-
rOndsred the vessel will bo found to have dis
charged her arms and munitions of
war. The object of libeling tlio ship in Call
fomla was to determine whether she violated
the neutrality laws. If she stands trial on
thai charge iho slatus of the Insurgents must'
bo Judicially determined ns n preliminary If
It is held that thov nro belligerents the in-
surgenls will hnv" ro.ilUod a substantial ad

folluroof Iho empty vessel. Nolhing bus

From advices recbl\cd hero from Chill
it appears that the news published in the

insurgent victories are myths. It is believed
that difficulty will soon nrho between Chili
