Mr. PutU-r offered a resolution , which went

Mr. Voorheo.s said It was not necessary
for linn to enforce his rc iue.sl b.v a siiiirlc
word. Ho would not saas , he hail said
time and time before , tint he was a lover of
freedom ot dc'iatiho : had never stunl in its
way and ho never Intended to. All he nskod
was that senators interested In the discus
sion should indicate some time when it
would he concluded. He asked "this great
body" to give way to reason on tins iuc-.i- [
llnn. Let senators reason together. l.e.t.
senators settle It on tbo basis of an ugroo-
nieut. "I should regret tu s > oe thu ISMIO
settled upon the low level of physical en
durance when we can as well setllo it upon
the hiL'h level of manly , intelligent agree
ment. 1 asu those who oppose tins bill to
give mo their response upon Ibis subject and
lol us sec. whether there is not some point
within the domain of conference and agree
ment that wo can reach. ' '
Mr. Teller of Colorado responded for the
opponents of repo'il. As .Mr. Allison , who
was entitled to tin ; lloor , was anxious ' , o
proceed. In ; would simply say that there had
been no delay in this debate , ' ( 'here had nol
been a speech made for the purpjse of delay.
The senate h.ul not readied a point where it
was fair to talk about lixing a time for a
vole. He therefore objected to the request
AIINotl r'uvol'H Cnllillgn nT All llullltiii.
Mr. Voorhees disclaimed that he had made
any accusation , nor had ho oven used the
nl "delay , " but he desired lo get some in-
licnlion of the purpose of thysu on tlie other
side of the ipie.sllon when discussion might
) o concluded.
Mr. Teller did not think it fair to take the
imc ot the senator from Iowa. I.aler on if
the senator from Indiana wanted the opinion
of those who opposed repeal they would give
it to him.
' All right , " replied Mr. Voorhees.
Mr. Allison of Iowa limn addressed the
senate. The law of 1MW , ho said , was a
temporary and o.\poriiiie.ntalilaw. Ho should
vote for it with great heslliitlon. Ho dH
not boliovr in the policy of piling up bullion
In the treasury and holding it there unused.
He favored the coining of every dollar of the
silver in tin ; treasury.
Mr. ( Jockrcll , democrat , of Missouri In
this century or the next ;
Mr. Allison said ho favored its coinage a
soon as practicable. He favored the iiso of
.t'iOUOl.lO ' ( ( ; ) of seignorago now in the treasury
to maintain tno parity between the two
nietiilii. Ho hold Unit the government could
not confine tno purchase of silver without
seriously injuring the standard established
in lii : and bringing this nation with all its
opportunities of wealth , labor and produc
tion to the silver standard.
\Vork ol tlio KrimsoU Conforoncr ,
At this point Mr. Allison was questioned
about the recent monetary conference at
Brussels , of which ho was a mcmboHi
said the Brussels conferen-'o ma-lo more
progress respecting the .solution of the sdvei
question than was made at all prior confer
ences. If the United States would un ler-
take , the policy of restoring silver hv an
international arrangement it would be ac
complished within a roasomiDle time. Tin ;
purity bel ween the two metals would be re
stored and silver would practically l > j re
habilitated. That was the solution of the
question.
Mr. Kill of New Vorlc asked whether the
ropu.il of thu purchasing cl.iuso nf i he Sher
man ace would facilitate or hinder the per
fection of such an international agreement.
Mr. Alllion replied that it was only a mat
ter ol Judgment. If the United States waste
to have an internalinnal agreement it must
be made to appear to the nations of the
world that the United States did not intend
to take euro of silver alone. That was the
salient part.
Mr. Ciuorgo of Mississippi asltod whether
there was a sentiment In Kunipa in favor of
a reassembling of the moi > otarv e .inference
rli-il Muliitiimiiii * ii Parity.
Mr. Allison had no doubt tint the public
opinion of Kuropo was that a conference of
the nntioiisjSlioiild _ bo assemiili-d to dual
with tlio question , and m that statement he
did not oxolud'j Hnirland. Many of the
must intelligent Kngli.shmcn in public life
and in the universities hMiuvod in oimotal-
lism and there was a strong aim growing
parly in Kii l-ind , and In his opinion at the
next opportunity it would bo the triumphant
party , which lavored ntili/.ing silver as well
as gold. He believed that if p..tienco wen-
oxuiviiinil. if this question wore dealt with
In tistalesmiiiilike way , if sonitois would
dismiss from their minds their prejudices
and part.\ leanings and deal with thu prob
lem as a irreat question involving the whole
country , its integrity and its interests , the
time would boon come when silver and gold
woiilu travel side by side.i
In conclusion Mr. AllUun said : "Believing
that the industrial interests of the country
ami Us wage earners , its farmers , Us pro
ducers in every section and in ovurj staio.
would ho impaired by transferring ourselves
suddenly from tin ) standard of lliu money
upon which all their obligations have boon
p.tid and all their arrangements arc belli ) , '
effected , I shall vote in accordance with the
suggestions 1 have made upon the subject. "
In accordance with his notice previously
given , upon the conclu iun of Mr. Allison's
speech , Mr. While ol Calitornm introduced
a resolution commemorative of the life of
the late Senator Stanford of that state.
Speeches in eulogy of Mr. Stanford were
madeby Messrs. Wnito , Dolph , Potlor ,

WAsiiiM.niN , Sept. 10. The lilibiutorinst
against the Tucker hill repelling the federal
elections law lasted only long enough to dem
onstrate that the republican ? wcio still
capable of nukinir a quorum. The demo
cratic loaders being convince- ! that nothing
could bo gained by continuing the deadlock ,
therefore .submitted to an adjournment.
They fool assured that when the house
meets on Tuesday n majority of their own
vull ho present and they will bo ablu to gu
ahead , irrespective of tlio wishes of the republican -
publican minority.
At the opening of the house this morning
Representative Knglish of New Jersey asked

nay . vote hv a motion to dispense with the
cal of the committee. The republicans , to-
eether with ( leiior.il TrnctSy and his small
band of democrats , deollnPii to vote ami
apaln succeed in breaking a quorum The
vote resulted : Vcas. 'J : nays. H7. showing a
; rain of one over yesterday.
Mr. Ttickor and his colleagues had no idou
that thoie would bo a quorum present today
atul simply allowed matters to go to a vote.
Mr. Tuciscr then said : "Mr. Speaker. It N
apparrnt Hint thrro Is nrt ( jfioruin of demo-
erats present , and It Is equally appamit that
ttie republicans intend to pursue their policy
of filibustering , and 1 therefore move that
the house adjourn "
Mr. Tucker placed a slenitleant emplinsls
on the word "democrats" a tnrust nt ( Jen-
eral 'I'raeoy and his followers. Then at ViM
P m. the lmue adjourned until Monday at
