, given ti the senate proceedings to(1a ( by ,
c the speeches o't Senators German and 111
on \'arlous IlhMes ) ot tim tarll anll financial
Rluatlon. At times the debate between the
two .lstnulshed democratic senators token
on an 111 ell Interest from than keen per
fond criticism alli satro directed at each
ther. : Ir. Oorman l\ke for two hours.
The sleeeh ; was mainly remarkable ' In Its
arrayal of facts to show that thio tarll law
- vhlch Mr. Gorman took so large a Part In
framIng was wholly Insufcient In rising
the revenue absolutely requisite IG carryon
the government In presenting this view
: lr. Gorman dwelt on the prstnal features
ot the contest over the Wlhon bill and ar-
, reigned Mr. 11 for his attitude then and
flneo on the tarll question. The spech ot
P rtr. JI was equally Iersonal anll elualy
.
'lgorou9 anti wns received with the same
close attention from his associates nnll in-
tense Interest In lie galleries as had been
Ihwn to the "arylaml senator. Mr. 11

lon of Iowa also contributed to the features
' - - ot the day by a short , but very electv" . proA
r- tentaton ot the need t immediate legisla-
ton on the tariff to raIse revenue instead of
further fruitless agitation ot currency re-
lslcn.
Mr. Stewart spolle oC the extent to which
the banks cntroled congress political conw
ventiong . telegraph companies and the press.
The IJnks always maintained a lobby In
congress. They dominated national conven-
. tons-republcan. democrat and poiiilIs- (
nnd secured the nomination ot their frlen ls.
fhey secured ambiguous platforms so that
, the peollle were never able to vote directly
un the sliver Issue. There had been bank
rule In every administration for twenty
'ears.
Senator Jones yesterday suhmled nn out-
Ilno of the bill to Senator Teller. le aril
' ether silver Icn conferred regardIng IL and
'declded that the coinage or the American
llroduct was not saUsractory. Today Sena-
trs Jones and Teller had a long conference
In the former's committee room In which an
effort was made to adjust the differences existing -
hUn ! between the friends ot silver and to
. reconcile thel to the administration.
P ' - - ; Mr. Stewart closed at 1 o'clock and then
: r. Gorman Maryland delivered the speech
\'Ilch was expected for sOle days . At the
outset \ . Gorman gave his attention to the :
proposition to crlpplo the Income lax by cut- :
ting ol Its appropriatIon. lie declared Im-
self opposed to that hue ot attack. lie then I
proccedell t" take up the tariff legislation
os hearIng on existIng conditions. The tarll
' " bill which first came to the senate from the ;
] louse brought forth an era ot demagoglsm
, mch as the country hal seldom before seen.
X overlooked the greatest essential of legis-
. . 1ntion-to raise sufcIent revenue to carryon
. . the overnment.
l'HODUCED INSUFFICENT fl1VENUE
w
. . The senator said that he for one would
nevcr have voted for the tariff bill It he
lied not believed It had been shaped so as to I
raise ample revenue for the expenses or the
government. The senate lied added sixty
mIllions to the revenue under that law and I
et It was now demonstKteil that the reve .
: demonstrted reve
hues under the law were Insufcient to carry
on the ordinary expenses of the govern
mont.
; . "Ac 'rdln ! to your estimates. : Interrupted I
: r. Vest , ' : do you claIm that the revenue for
the presenl year will noL meet the expendItures -

"I do. "
"Do you Include In your estimate the 40 ( I
per cent tax on sugar and the Increase In
the whisky tax whhehi . wilt not bo available for
this year ? I desire to cal the senator's attention -
tenton to the fact that the revenues ot the
' government have been steadily IncreasIng for
three months and It Is reasonable to presume -
sume that by April 1. the revenues wi meet
the expenditures. "
"I will allow another to answer that ques-
tion . " replied \r _ Gorman , "I will alow '
the foremost man or finance In the demo
cratc party to answer : the secretary ot the i
treasury , who amid alt this turmoil has stood i

"Bororo the election or 1892 , " saId Mr .
Gorman "It had already been .emonstrated
' . that the McKnley law did not yield sum .
- dent revenue to met the demands ot the
oyernment. The estimates on which that
law bad been made were erroneous Just as
the estimates on which this last tent ! law was :

I : XPFNSES CANNOT nfl nEDUOED.
Mr. Gorman reviewed the circumstance
under which the Wilson bill was taken up In :
the senate and declared hue expenses at the
government could not bo reduced. lie was :
r Interrupted I number at times by question : B
4jF 1rom sejuators.
Mr. ( orman quoted ( noun / report of the
condition or the treasury on January 12 ,
Ihowhl : that the defIcit Ence July 1. 1894 ,

was alreldy double that sum and the year
, ' \11 hut hal over.r. . Oorman spoke ot
the dlUculy of making prognostcatons and
declared that In his olllnlon the secrelnry :
ought not to bo lucid to hIs figures.
"But. " said he . addressing the democratc
side. "you cnnnot afford to trifle wlh the
- aituation. You must maintain without party
division the honor and integrity ot the gOY-
ernment.
"We are raising more taxes from our
people than from customs duties . " said Mi .
Oorman. "Not enough revenue was being :
rlsell ' frol Customs to pay the huension

wihin our own borders. The customs roy

: Ir. Aldrich sal : "As the senator from
M lrlanll 'ays the ruponslhlity wi be on
tu e republican side ot the chamber after
arch 4. Let mo ask hIm I wo will have
the Ilresident with lS after that date ? "
Mr. Gorman paused for / moment , anti then
In eloquent terms declared the p sllent ot
the t United States could be depclllell upon
to meet any emergency presented to him
wih a patriotism uninfluenced by party feel-
In g .
"I.et me suggest , " saul Mr. Hale , "that
whie the senator from Maryland 1laces the

h ave our own idea as to how this revenue
shoull be raised. I Is part ot the republican
poley or itrotection . Now , Is the senator
authorlze.1 to say the president will hell

Mr. Gormuun disclaimed any authority to
peak for time Iresilent or to indicate his
c ourse . hit I the republican congress after

Mr. AIlrlch , again suggested that Mr. Conan .
man hall pelnted out that the ovcrnment
nCdell more revenue. "AIIl now ! what remedy -
edy does the senator tmrolose7" asked : Ir.
Aldrich. .
"The first thing to 110 Is to pas lie ap-

Wily NOT PASS A HEVlmUE BILL ?
"Why not pass some bill now to Increase -
crease time revenue ? " asked : Ir. Aldrich.
,
"We have no power to do so. "
"Thero are some measures on the calen-
dar ( alluding to the bills tG ) lace Iron and
coal on the free list and to abolish the dlt-
rerental on retne sugar , but they de

Mr. Hi and Mr. Allison wore Instantly on

NOT WISlm ThAN hIS l'mt.o\ .
The senator from Marylanll attempted to
set his Jlllllent np 1 superior to lint o
some ot his associates . Ills past acts , he
egged to assure him , hal shown that he
was no wiser than others . With bitter
Irony l he quieted thin conclulln ! words ot Mr.
Oorman's speech on the occasion of the pas-
s age ot the tariff bIll , when that sinatcl' en'
Jolnel j patience . forbearance anti vIrtue on
hue tlelocrtc masses ; spoke or the rising
sun ot 1 brighter duty on the horizon , and
preicted victory and success at the Novem-
ber electons.
"At' that time , " contnucl Mr. Hi , "he
predlctell victory. Now he says ho alone an-
tcipated defeat I voted against ti4 bill .
hoping after It lasel the ! enat It would
bc mollnOI In conference but when ctmrcum-

dicaton hOed for or antchatel had It not
been for the remarks of the senator from

1ar1'land.
Mr. Oorman was again on his feet as soon
as Mr. 11 closed Ho spoke very quiety at
fi rst . but with evident feehimig . He dlsclalmel
n desire to Ilavo a 11ersonal controversy with
the senator from New Yorll. lie was noL In
the habit at makIng explanations. lie was
! uilel always by the one rule ot hrlnllng
hIs l hest judgment on a proposition and then
abIding by that Judgment. There was an- .
other rule he said , which ho was In the
habit h of folo\lng. and hint was to confer , to
consult with hIs associates and abide by the
JuIgment j ot his Imrty. As to the tariff law
as I whole , Mr. German said that It time
democracr-Crom its head to its most humble
member-had m given the measure generous
support the result ot Iqst November would
have h been different . Ho dId not then apprehend -
prehend hue enator from New York would
be found fighting with the republicans against
the huh . No domInant party could have succeeded - :
ceeded In the midst of the terrible depression -
aba that existed last summer lie did not
want to be disagreeable to the senator from
New York Ie luaU not commented upon
his course but his position as Il was now
lIe tne by himself was / legitimate subject
ot comment. And It hl Idea was carried
out It would further decrease the revenues
40000000. his proposition was unfair It , :
woutl be disastrous to the country.
"Now I say to the senator from New Yorle. "
said ho , "bring forth your measure for the
relief . and I It Is / proper measure . one ;
that commands I majority In this chamber
we will pass It. "
With a final protest against hIs course and I
.
an appeal to both sides ot time chamber for
patrloto action . Mr. Oorman concluded , and I
Mr. Cal or Florida took the floor . Mr. Cal L
urged hue necessity of an Income tax.
The senate hell a brief executive session
and at flf : adjourned.
AMENDINtO TilE CO1'flIIUIIT LAW

rOI' enable 'onturcs.
WAShINGTON Jan. 14.-The amendment
to the copyright law which Representative
Covert ot New York has
proposed In time form
or n bill , i Intended to correct a very costly
error In the laws now In forco. Under
time existing statutes any person who repro-
duces a pictorial likeness of n copyright worlt
or art drawing statue , photograph or other
form Is compelled to forfeit the cuts and Is
subject to a fine of $ th for every reproduction
In hIs possession. This law has proved par-
tcularly oppressive against newspaper pub-
lisimors . for the courts have Interpreted It
that the fine must b pall for every copy ot
I newspaper printed which contains 1 cut ot
a copyrighted picture or work of art. An
example or Its workIng Is pointed , out by Mr.
Covert In the case 'of a suit brought against
a New York newspaper to recover $81GOOO
damages for the publication ot a cut ot a
yacht whIch was made from n copyrighted
phuotographu Yet should the suit succeed the
paper would be mulcted out of a sum which
would sufce to feat I fleet . of yachts
To do way with these possibilities Which
the law provides the amendment proposes to
limit the fines to twice the value of thuD copy-
rIght of the picture whIch Is trespassed. upon.
As Mr. Covert Is chairman ot the house
committee on patents which has jurisdiction
over legislation appertaining to the ( copyright
laws , and as the bill carries no appropriation ,
ho Is hopeful that < may bo one or those to
run tle gauntet durIng the remainIng days
or the session. A number of newspaper llub-
Ishers wilt speak to the commIttee this week
In advocacy of time bill.

CONlrlUUUNG ON : TUB CUt BNOY.
Democrato Loaders Isusy Trying to L'atclt
_ VI ii Compromise 1iieastiro. !
WASHINGTON . Jnn. H.-Tho attempt or
the democrats to _ reach an agreement upon
some definite plan to solve the currency
question seems to have ben transferred
Irons the house to thuG senat for the time al
least. Democrto members ot the bank-
Ing conumittee . who are closest to Secretary
Carlisle and the president say today that
the campaign for agreement tad made no
progress since last week but added that
the secretary or the tresury still entertains -
tains strong hopes that the different financial
factions ot congress may find I platform ot
compromlso upon which they can stand to
gether. Tile house democrats who , are on
time most Intimate terms with Speaker Crisp
do not talk so hopefuly and do nol seem to
expect any results from hue harmonizing
efforts ot Secretary Carlisle.
ChaIrman SprInger of time banking and cur-
rency commilee had a taut with Secretary
Carlisle Sunday but so far as can be
learnNI theIr duscuBslon ot the situation was
wlhout results.
The talks betwcn Senators Teller and Jones
dill not result In any definite understanding.
! r. Jones said he was not neatly yet to put
his bill iii . and that he would talk with different -
ferent senators to see If there was any pro-
pect of getting It through.
"There will be no use . " ho said , "to put
In a bill at all unless there Is some probabi-
Iy ot Its occeptanc by the conflicting ele-
ments. I have ben seeing the reprcsenta-
tves or different shades ot sentiment about
the senate and until I shall have had an
opportunity to compare their views I cannot
say whether I shall present hue bill at nil. "
'
Mr. Jones also said that whlo It was true
that hG had seen Ito president and hall submitted -
mlte a rough draft ot the hi which he
proposed tG him , It was not a fact that the
president had Indicated hlB acceptance to
time plan proposed lie B3hl he had talkel
with the presilent for two hours on Friday
last amid whln the president hall Indicated
his desire that ( legislation shoull be accom-
pushed and had encouraged him to go ahead
ho hal not said that the Jones bill would be
acceptable In al respects. lie hal not
gathered the Impression that the presilent
was opposed to the ( bill . but that ho was
noncommItal , and would he on any bill unt
he should hecomo assured as to whetu.'r It
could pass congreu.
