The cabinet , after n complete discussion of all the phases of IP the senate situation , has agreed to a compromise I ? promise proposition to bo offered by one ot the repeal senators. It Includes , as did the Harris nnirndincnt , provision for the coin- ngo of ' .he silver seigniorage In the treasury amounting to tKI.OOO.OOO , nnd thereafter the purchase of : iOtXX ) ( ) < ) ounces of silver a month until iKi.OOa.OOi ) ounces have been pur chased. This will carry the purchase of silver over the expiration of Mr. Cleveland's term , a condition the sil ver men insist upon , and relieve the treasury during the coinage of seiginor- age , eighteen months , of any further pur chase of bullion , besides maklnir the bullion BO coined an available treasury asset. To meet the demands of the east , n proposition for the issue of JlOO.OOO.OOOofllpcr cent bonds la included. There U still a question whether a provision for the repeal of the tax on state banks and the redemption of notes of all classes below t.-i shall bo added. This is the ndministra- lion's compromise proposition. For some days past a scries of conferences have been held in the room of the senate committee on appropriations. Senator Cock- roll , the chairman of tlio committee , rapidly caino to the front ns the moving spirit 1-1 se curing a compromise , nnd ho had the active co-ops-ration of Messrs. Gorman , Vest ami Faulkner. Their object was to find means of sottlinir the question so as to preserve the autonomy of the democratic party. They bad before them all the amendments offered nnd endeavored to fix up n patchwork which would have some of the features ot all the amendments , with possibly some of tlmso in 1 the present law. All that has Dcen done has bocn done by the democratic senators. It seems probable tlio measure will encounter the opposition of the republicans. Strain lloulni to Mici'T. Considering that the members of the scn ate did not find their boas until 12 o'clock last night , there was a liberal attendance when the vice president rapped for order to day. The strain -is heginntnit to show It self on the senators as individuals , and they ore looking forward qulto anxiously to Sun day , which they are led by Senator Voorliees to hope will provo a day of rest. Ho has iniido no public announcement In the senate of his intentions about further continuous sessions. Privately and to the newspaper reporters ho says that ho will probably not ask the snnato to sit tonight , but will about 0 o'cloclt move an adjournment until Monday. Senator Morgan took the Hoer during thu morning hour to make a personal explanation in reply.to 'some Alabama newspaper criticism , nnd delivered a facetious speech , which had the effect of starting the senate off In good humor with itself and the world. Unit of DiilinU' Trlnki. The tnnglo which the semite finally found Itself In last night , and which resulted hi the adjournment of that body , was the out come of u clover plot originated by Senator Dubois nnd executed through the help of Senator Teller. The silver men know that on a roll call , where pairs would have to bo recognized , that the repeal members would not be able to obtain a quorum , though on a call of the senate in which pairs can be counted n quorum was present. Thodlftl- I11 unity then became to obtain n roll 11o call. Senator Teller examined the rules and discovered what proved to ; bo ii successful iminnor of bringing about thu desired end. It isa rule of the senate that , except by unanimous consent t , publicilocuinnnlB cannot bo read in that body if they have been previously published. Mr. Teller , during u call for a quorum , ex plained his views to Mr. i'offer , who was speaking , and a few uimutes later Mr. I'offer , from the muss of manuscript in front of him , ivbiirrouted a public 'document nnd began to read It with great delllierntloii. Immediately Mr. Teller was on his feet and objrcti'd to the reading. A'ftcr some debate the chairman gave h Is decision , from which an m > p < Ml was taken and a roll cull ordered. This was what the silver men were looking for , nnd on the call It was found that no quorum was present , 10d It wns then that tno repeal inon stepped Into it not her trap. Mr. Vilas tried to force Mr , Duhois to vote , iind a long debate en- mind , An effort was made to take a vote that thu senate should not oxeuso Mr. Du bois from voting , and , on this roll cull , an- othur lack of n quorum was developed and an adjournment became necessary. Tlio pending question is whether Mr. Dubois ' must vote , nnd it Is thu 'intention of Mr. Yllus to have Mr. Dubois censured. This , lr.it isslntcd , will brine up a- nice constitutional question , which will develop u debate which llio silver men claim will last a mouth ut least. IN Tilt : UOUilC.

Molu Tlmo u Quorum I'roicut. The silver purchase ropeiv ! bill was taken up and it was asccrtrined In preliminary roll calls that there wcro seventy-two sena tors present , or only thirteen les than the whole number. It was porhnps that fact which stimulated Mr. Voorhees to declare ut the close of the day's session , after a ro- ninrlmblo speech against the bill by Jones of Nevada , that in the langirigo of Paul Jones the friends of the bill "had only begun the light. ; ' Preliminary to the oponlng of the session the silver senators had the' chamber to themselves exclusively Morgan had re gained possession of his own desk , which had been for two itays past usurped by Stew art. It was noticeable that Morgan was atone ono tlmo In earnest conversation with Kyle nnd Allen , who had come to consult him on ' some subject , at another time with Dubois und Teller , and still later with PelTcr. During the t'tno ' occupied by tha reaiting < of the journal the senate on both sides of tlio chamber was weiiet-ally filled up , although twelve senators only listened to the chap- Iain's iprayi-r. A resolution was ofTorcd by Dolph refer ring to the committee on privileges and elections the question whether absent sena- tors may be compelled to attend ' , was pre sented and agreed to.

The name of the Idaho senator was then calle.1. Dubois remained in his seat silent. Then there was a roll cull , and , because of ' a like stage of proceedings last night , no quorum had voted , and ono loss than sev ' enty-two responded twenty-nine more than a quorum , and by far the largest that has appeared on roll calls during the session. Then , af tor some more preliminary pitfalls , from which the vice president extricated the senate , the repeal bill was taken up. Mr. I'off or J ielded the floor to Mr. Jones of Nevada and bo addressed thescnnto against the hill. Mr. Jones said It was denied that the hill was a proposition to place the United States on u gold standard , whereas the very : vehemence of the uanial was In itself sus picious. Then , the effort of the demonetization of silver , uslii'd Mr. White ot Louisiana would bo to luiTcaiii the rate of the interest the people would have to pay ! "Not a particle of doubt about It , " replied Jones.I have paid 8 and .S cents , and ledI could pay it bettor than 2. ' $ cents now. " Senator Jones characterized the attempt to establish a gold standard as a crime atrainst mankind nnJ treason to the bust Interests of tlio country. By the paesuga of this bill you go abso lutely to the pout standard , nnd rather than have n gold standard nt the expense of jus tice , give mo a standard of justice ut the ex pense of gold.

On the river the scene was almost terrible In Its grandeur- The waves dashed against the wharves and sides of the vessels with tremendous force , sending clouds of spray high into the air. The tide came in with mighty force and with swiftness , covering the low lands opposite the city and stretching In an unbroken sea across the rlco fielus ns far ns the eye could reach. Thu troubled stream as It swept by the city bore on its broad bosom an immense quantity of wreckage , broken i , gangways , trunks of trees , drifting boats and thousands of feet of timber washed from the timber pens at the sawmills. There was little shipping in port and nearly nil rode , through the gale in safety. Iiitimluleil tha Wnter I'ront. The high water did considerable damage on the water front. All the wharves are under water , and the floods swnpt through the lower floors of the warehouses. The city wharves nt the foot of Water street were washed uway and the wharf on the north side of the dock wax lanucd bodily on Water street. The wharves at , the foot of Princess and Chestnut streets were also badly damaged , nnd It will cost the city a considerable sum to rebuild them The tide swept over Water street at many places and the flood wns deep enough from Chestnut and Mulberry streets for rowboats to go to und fro. The Capo Fear & Yailkln railroad wharf was covered anil some damage resulted to goods belong ing to merchants. The Wilmington com press warehouse wns also flooded , water s'tnnding from six to eight inches en the floor.

In the history of modern railroading thl Is a now departure on the part of receivers , andgoes to prove what TUB Hun has often s.iid in these columns that Mr. S. 11. Ifc Clark und Mr. Oliver Ccl W.

For nearly tweiity-iivo years the Union Pacific has stooa for the pioneer idea of clv ilization , ami in that time has felt the influ ences of contraction and expansion ns repro seiitod in the monetary conditions of the country. It lias had Its tips nnd downs such , as few roads have experienced , the final act in the drama having been miched Friday , when the road passed out of the lauds of the board of directors into tlio management of Messrs.

During the early summer , when the road showed largo increase in earnings , the wort , men in the shops were laboring nine hours a day , six days a week , but the first approach of the financial ' crisis brought about'in , consequence - sequence of n decrease In earnings , eight hours a day. Iut ! the reduction In hour * was hardly ii "drop in the bucket , " tlio do- .creased earnings necessitating another cut , which came in July , reducing the shopmen , to seven hours a day , flvo day * n week. Appreciating the stress of the system , th men accepted the reduction philosophically , and for two months have worked five days a week. Then came the appointment of ro. celvors , which In the Tory mituro of things banished nil hope ot an increase for the present at least , hut n surprise was in store , which cnmo late yesterday when General Manager Dickinson handed the order to Superintendent of Mo tive Power J , U. McComioli increasing tha working hours as above noted. A representative of Tun DEE , talking to Mr. Dickinson last evening about the unex pected order , was told by the genial general manager that the men deserved the mcrcasa because of falthfu'noss and the necessity of preparing the road and equipment for win. tor. Il lp Onmliu Wonderfully , "Tho Increase will affect at least 11 ft oca hundred men In the Omaha hop , " said Mr. Dickinson "and about , , four thousand men over the entire system. It will incruaso our pay roll 75,000 per month. The action wni taken after a conference of the receivers , and the order was given Mr. MoConnell late > yesterday afternoon. " _ "Will the palm-las of olork and officials cut b.V the order of August 20 bo restored ? " at ked the reporter. "Tho wage question has not been discussed at nil , " replied the oponitlne .head of the Union Pacific , "nor will It , piobably , for some time to to mo. The men In the shops , that U machinists and all other experts so called , have a srhodulo of wagei b.ist'tl en ten-hour day , Ui cents per hour. Should the day he reduced to eight hours the wages of course woulu bo eight times ! W cent's , for seven hours the same.

Thou the talk drifted to the cousldcratioa of the status of the schedules and agree- mcuts between the different branches of labor , when Mr. Dickinson said : "All schedules have been nurogated by reason ot the court's intervention.
