I democrat * evidently were to show that It the
Liionati was reorganized it could b done only
( by an alliance of the republicans ami popti-
IlKla , Ho said tt wan well known when the
jenate met thnt neither of the great parties
li d a majority.Ve knew on this side , "
he continued , "that we did not have a ma
jority , and we- are not yet certain that the
other side hap ; that can only bo determined
by a vote. If they have , they art entitled
to control the committee * and then the coun
try can understand that they are In control
and responsible for legislation In this cham
ber. "
Mr. Oorman thonfore demanded the yeas ,
which were taken. The populists , Messrs.
Alkn of Nebraska , Butler of North Carolina.
Irhy of South Carolina , 1'cfTtr of Kansas
and Stewart of Nevailn , declined to vote. Mr.
Tlllman was pllrcd ngalnrt the resolution
and Mr. Kyle , the populist trim North
Dakota , voted against the resolution. This
action of the populists eliminated them ns a
factor and the resolution which Rave , the
republicans control of the committees was
adopted by a strict party vote of the moni
tors of the old parties SO to 28.
As soon as tha vote was announced Mr.
Allen Ml It Incumbent upnn himself to make
nn explanation of the attitude of the third
party men. tie wanted the senate and th ?
country to understand that though small In
number they constituted the nuclei ! * of a
thoroughly organized party , complet ly Inde
pendent In pol tlcal principles and sympathies.
When. the senate convened a mijorlty of
the members professed to be In favor of the
frea and unlimited coinage of slim. Letters
had been rant to all of them to meet with a
view to organizing the senate on silver lines.
With the exception of two or thre ? there wns
no response. The popullits had , therefore ,
Mr. Allen said , decided to take no p-rt In the
question as to who should control the organ
ization. Personally , he was glad the re
sponsibility for I'glslation hurt passed Into
the hnnclp of the republicans at both ends ol
the capltol.
HAHRIS ASKS A QUESTION.
Mr. Harris , democrat of Tenn ssee , pro-
ccoJed to put Mr. Allen through a cross-
cx.imlnntlcn after his usually emphatic
fashion. Ho wanted to know If the p-pullsts
with the full knowledge that they held the
balance of power , had not dllberately deter
mined by their silence to allow the repub
licans , who had three moro votes than the
democrats , to take control , and If their
sllencs did not , therefore make them as nuicl
responsible as their votes.
Mr. Allen said that the populists realized
that they held the balance of power. "We
have got It , " he said , turning to Mr. Harris ,
' "ami we propose to utilize It. "
The democratic party claims to , be the
party of tariff reform. Ho believed 'n light
ening the burdens of the pJOple , but the tarlfl
bill came In loaded to the guards with pro
tection. He had concluded that the demo
cratic party as represented by Mr. Cleveland
and his friends had neither the capacity nor
the disposition to relieve the people. ( Republi
can laughter. ) The s-ime wns true of the
republican party. ( Democratic laught r. ) The
policy of the republicans. Inaugurated In
the other branch of congress , to be followed
here , he predicted , would work the ruin ol
the party wlth'.n elx months.
Mr. Mitchell , republican of Oregon , denied
that the republicans could be held responsi
ble. They had not been In the majority and
wore not now In the majority. Whether they
would be before the session closed remained
to bo seen.
"I will say that when the senate Is full
It consists of eighty-eight members : wher
not full , as It Is now , oC eighty-seven. 01
these eighty-seven , forty-two are republicans ,
thlrty-nlno democratH and six populists. II
that stuU' of the case gives us a majorltj
of the members ) wo arc responsible. "
ItKKUSBD TO MAKE SUGGESTIONS.
Ho said , In Justice to the populists , that
they had abiolutely refused to even suggest
committee assignments. They wcro. with
ono or two exceptions , allowed to retain what
they hid In the Kitty-third congress.
"Wag not the position of nonactlon and si
lence taken by the populli-ts , " Inquired Mr
Harris , "quite as satisfactory as if they hat
pledged their votes to the resolution ? "
"We are always satisfied with what the
ecnalo does , " replied Mr. Mitchell , smilingly ,
"The stnator from Tennessee understands
that the rules give the plurality control of the
committees , " said Senator Hoar of Massa
chusetts.
"I am nwaro of the rule , " replied Mr. Har
ris gruffly ,
"Tho senator Is aware of everything ? "
"No , not everything , " retorted Mr. Har
ris , gruniy.
Mr. I'almer of Illinois Interrupted Mr. Hoai
pther the republican party declined
onsiblo for the committees , tc
'latter replied that they would be
bio within all reasonable bounds.
_ _ Trring to n characteri/allon by Mr
Harris of the populist party as a contingent
of the republican party , Mr. Heir declare
that the populists would vote , ten times will
the devnocrats when they would votj onci
with the republicans.
Mr. Duller , populist of North Carolina
made his first speech In the senateby adding -
ding to Mr. Allen's explanation his own
Views .regarding the attitude of the popu
lists , tlcf'rrlng to the efforts of the popu
list senators to secure an organization era
a silver basis , he- asked Seintor Harris II
ho had not received an Invitation to the
conferei-ce called for this purpose.
NOT A ONE-IDEA MAN.
"I did , " said Mr. Harris , "and I have but
.one- remark to mnk ? In that connection.
his hour then has never been a pe-
'n pny life when I w.is willing to Join
any pa.iy based on one single Idea. "
Senator Tfnje said th ? vote In the senate
today and the proceedings subsequent had
.demonstrated that nelthfr party was In
- ; pinYer and that It had been shown that It
-jwcubl bo Impossible for the republicans to
i ceoiiiplli'h anything , without tnu aid of the
mother parti s. - '
jA , V''Tho truth underlying the whole proceed-
aT Ing , " returned Senator Vest of Missouri ,
, * "Is that reorganization was mad possible
to put Mr. Wolcott , a free coinage man , on
, . the committee , thus making that a free
coinage commllt e. That is the concrete of
iho whole matter and without tlmt conces
sion , the reorganization would not hav- > been
put through. "
Mr. Allison of Iowa replied to this thrust
that all this was inertly dealing with leather
and prunella. The complexion of the Mnaneo
committee , which was now a free coinage
committee , had not bo n changed. Ho de
clared that reorganization had hesn made
i necessity for the enlargement of the com-
tnlttce.
Mr. Oorman spoks next , saying1 that the
republican ! ) had sought the power which the
control of the committees would glvo them
. . . and he said that ho was amazed that Mr.
jjp Allison should early seek to avoid the respon-
. jL ttblllty which his party had assumed. They
* gnad assumed the responsibility and must
sJgrnent It llke.inen ,
3(1 ( M > , jwrnsked Mr. Gorman how It had
, .f > - jc-jppeiied flint the democrats , having already
? ve free coinage men on the finance com-
nltto ? , hid elected to place another man
nVqcatlnK free coinage nn that committee.
\Tn this Mr. Qnrman retorted thnt the re-
pijjjllcam , having full control , had placed
twci'rfree coinage men on the committee.
Mr. Teller her ? Interrupted to say that
If two free coinage men had not been added
-wouM have been Impossible for the re
publicans to organize at all.

t larcastlc vein , saying tint lie liojud the dem-
tcrifs would soon recover from thu anxiety

WASHINGTON , Dec. SO. It Is stated au
thoritatively that there will bo no announce
ment of n bond lewie today. There Is no
reason , however , to change the previously
expressed stslement that a bond IPJUO is
consld "d almost certain In the very nt-ar
future.
There Is no new reasonable doubt that
another bond Issue has been fully agrscd upon
and that the details of n contract with n
nyndlcnte , of which Mr. J. Plerpont Morgan
Is the head , have been arranged , so that noth
ing remains to be done to carry it Into effect
but for the secrMary of the trtnsury to sign
his name thereto. Thus the president Is
prepared for any emergency and there Is
no doubt tlr.t If heavy wthdrawals of gold
for export again sot In another Issue would
bo announcid. The fact that there lias been
no withdrawals ( or export within the last
several days , although sterling exchange I < 9
at or above the shipping point , gives credence
to an opinion hvld In treasury circles that the
market has already begun to feel the syn
dicate Influence aynlnst export.
The amount nf the next Issue It Is almost
certain has bem fixed at $100,000,000 , and the
terms of the contract are rather more fa
vorable to the government than those under
which the last Issua was made. In this con-
n ctlon It Is r , called that between August
31 , 1SG5 , the date upon which the national
debt reached Its highest point , and March

outstanding obligations was reduced by $1-
881,3G7S73. To accomplish this reduction ,
bonds were purchased to the- amount of
$770,800,770. Of this amount J324.350.300
were purchased prior to 1879 and $116,453-
450 since that date.

WASHINGTON , Dec. 30. The report tha
Iowa Indians have leased 10,000 acres eland
land from the Knw tribe , Intending- Hvi
off the rental of their allotted lands ti
whites ) , Is disputed by Indian ofllclals. Al
leases ma-Jo by or with Indians require th
approval of the Indian bureau , and Indian
can abandon their allotments and move 01
to rcssrvatlon lands only by authority of ai
act of congr.ss. This action has never beei
allowed , and the Indian bureau will no
authorize It now. The report Is believed ti
have originated from the probable contem
platlcn of this action by some of the Indlani
without regard to the legal restrictions.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 30. ( Special Tels-
gram. ) Senator AllEn precipitate ! a dh-
cusslon In the ssnate todiy , which give
promise of becoming most acrimonious , the
forbearance of ono or two mnntors alone
preventing the uss cf hard words. It
was Rlvu nnd take for nearly three
hours , the debite growing out of republican
success in committee reorganization. This
morning Senator Allen was Inclined to ob
ject to the consideration of the resolution
which it was understood Senator Mitchell
of Oregon would make on behalf of the re
publicans. Allen thought he saw a demo
cratic-republican alliance In the make-up of
committees to the exclusion of the populists ,
but when he entered the senate he discovered
differently , nnd remained silent when the
resolution was cffcre-d , for the reason that
ho would leave bad enough nlono. After the
adoption cf the resolution by the narrow mar
gin of 30 to 2S , Mr. Allen gave the papullsts'
reasons for keeping In the middle of the
road , charging both democrats and repub
licans with Incompetency In matters of legis
lation. Senator Harris asked the
senior senator from Nebraska If there
had not been a deal on the part of the pop-
iillstu with republicans , This ) was the be
ginning of a , verbal war , which lasted late
Into the afternoon , giving the crowded gal
leries kesn enjcymcnt. Popullstsi are at a
loss to know why Kyle voted with the dem
ocrats , their policy being to maintain n
dignified silence. It Is underi'lood ' that Kyle
Is dlsratlsfled with his committee ? , having
had hopes of being better placd than In
the Fifty-third congress.
PETTIGREW EAGER FOR WAR.
Senator Pettlgrew suggested In a talk had
with him the other day that England could
Invest a half million or so of dollars In Vene
zuela In the way of bribery or purchase
tt'oney , and soon settle- the dispute In regard
to the boundary line , leaving the United
States holding the sack , so to speak. It Is a
fact , startling ns It may seem , but England
Imports some $600,000,000 more than she ex-
p-rts , which clearly shows that she Is not a
producing , but a purchas'iig country. The sen
ator grew warm under the collar as he pro
ceeded to talk of the country across the
sweeping main , anil In criticism of the. bull
dozing nation said : "Of all countries In the
world England Is the greatest bully and the
most domineering , arrogant and oppressive ,
barbarous peoples , slaughtering and sweep-
down upon African tribes and weak , ssml-
barbarcus peoples , slaughtering nnd swep
Ing them from the face of tin
earth. She blows Sepoys from tin
cannon's mouth ; she robs , she spoliates am
her hands are against all the weaker nation
of the earth. England Is today the great
common , general robber of the world nn.
is never satisfied unless stealing from som
weaker country. We may have troutil
ibcut the Alaskan territory , for England
like the greedy robber she ls is endcavurini
to steal some of It. Now I think we shouli
simply drive the English oft our Alaskai
territory with soldiers and not wait for nn ;
arbitration or diplomacy. "
Senator Kyle Introduced the petition of th
Santee Sioux Indians , praying for the passage
sago of Mclklejohn's anti-toxicant bill. Sen
ator Kyle also Introduced a bill for the c-stnb
llshment , control,7operatlon nnd malntonanc
