the lures committees , ns he had outl

would arise as to whulher the goverm

WASHINGTON , Feb. 2C. The last six da
of the session are suspension days all t
ordinary rules arc suspended , and the bl
can bo passed and resolutions adopted bj
two-thirds vote of the house. Today was I
first of these six days , and the house cc
jrated It by passing the senate Interflatloi
monetary conference bill. Despite the see
Ing divergence of views on the money qu
tton , the bill was passed , after n lively i
bale ot two hours , by a vote of 279 to 3.
was supported alike by republicans , all1
republicans , gold democrats and silver den
crats. The silver democrats and silver
publicans disclaimed any faith In this
bimetallism but they i
tempt to secure ,
pressed themselves as willing and anxl <
to have the teat made. Mr. Qulgg , rcpi
llcan of New York , and Mr. Johnson , rcpi
llcan of Indiana , both made vlgon
speeches In opposition. Those who spoke
the bill were : C. W. Stone of Pennsylvar
Grow of Pennsylvania , Watson of Ohio , >
Creary of Kentucky , Sparkmun of Florl
Hartman of Montana , Mcltao of Arkans
Cooper of Texas , Cox ot Tennessee , Mc.Mll
of Tennessee.
The bill was also passed to provide
the arbitrating of differences between
carriers of Interstate commerce and th
employes ( known as the Krdman bill ) : a
of I
the Importation
the bill to prevent
pure tea.
Ono hour's debate on n side was allov
on the monetary conference bill. Mr. Sit
took the floor and explained the bill ,
purpose of which was to promote and
vance the scheme of International blmcl
llsm , the only safe bimetallism , and the
niclalllsm to which his party was pledg
The house amendments were added to g
the bill greater efficiency.
Mr. McCreary , who was n member
the last International conference , gi
hearty support to the bill. He said ho 1
confidence that the Incoming presld
would discharge the duties Imposed U ]
him by the bill. Ho favored internatlo
bimetallism.
"Did you not say , upon your return fr
Brussels , " Inquired Mr. Cox , "that
dlfllculty of reaching an International agr
mcnt lay with England ? What reason hi
you for believing that England will cliai
her position ? "
ENGLAND MOKE FAVORABLE.
"England , " replied Mr. McCreary , "Is
greatest creditor nation. She has had
gold standard since ! 181G and she will no
until the countries ot contlner
agree
Europe force her to. But sentiment In fa
ot bimetallism Is growing In Engla
Nine of the present ministry are memb
ot the Bimetallic league. "
of Jl
silver republican
Mr. Hartman ,
of the silver
tana , stated the position
publicans. They would vote for this I
ho said , but they desired to disavow i
belief that an International convent
would result In anything tangible , and
register their protest against refusal
adopt Independent bimetallism as un-An :
lean , humiliating and degrading.
Mr. Mcllao voiced the position of the
vcr democrats. They believed silver she
bo remonotlzcd. If It could bo done by
ternatlonal bimetallism they would
place a stone In Its path. It the republic
tried and failed , as he believed they woi
they would be relegated four years from i
to the oblivion which would swallow up
Cleveland administration.
Mr. Qulgg took up the cudgel against

In the last campaign advocate this hill ,
"thoso who had supported Bryan. The
'publicans , who had gone through the c ,
palgn denouncing silver as a humbug , v
now asked to vote for a bill which re <
nlzed It. The battle had been , fought
won on the gold standard. If the republic
who supported this bill had had their '

Mr. Hepburn Indignantly refused to al
Mr. Qulgg to Interpret the platform for h
He resented the Idea that the platform
revocably committed the party to the (
standard. It was to him a distinct pie
to promote by all honorable means an In
national agreement.
JOHNSON IS VEHEMENT.
Mr. Johnson followed the lead of
Qulgg In a vehement and at times most s
Rational speech , which was listened to w
close attention , but which received no dt
