LRT ON Te 2 ace RI RSS gee VOTING BEGINS. Silver Repeal Bill Amendments Being! Voted Upon. FikS! GF THE TES Twenty-cight Senators For and Thirty mine Agajast the Addition to the Repeal Bili-The Voorhees Bil! Goes—No Hope for the Amend- ments. WasninotTox, Oct. 27.—Voting on the amendments to the bill for the repeal of the silver purchase law began at 4 o'clock s afternoon, the Peffer ameudment to restore the law of 1837 for free coinage alike of gold and sil- ver being the first. This was defeated. The decisive action was brought about by Mr. Voorhees, who said at %:50 o'clock that he did not wish to deny anyone the right to speak and hoped that the senator from Nevada would conclude to-morrow, but as no one Vv prepared to go on just at that time he would = ask for a vote on the first ainendment in order that some of those might be gotten out of the way in the meantime. Mr. Peffer asked that he might occupy the floor a short time in explanation of the amend- ment and he was recognized. When he had concluded the vote was taken. It resulted: yeas, 28; nays, 39. A o'clock it was agreed to vote oorhees substitute for the Wil- son bill, with the understanding that the Voorhees bill should be subject to amendment if the substitute should be adopted under these circumstances and that debate should not be cut off nor the right to offer any amendments be curtailed, Mr. Perkins, of California, then of- fered an amendment providing for the coinage of the American product. charging 20 per cent. seigniorage, al- lowing no gold coins of less than $10 and no treasury certificate less than $5. He at once began speaking on the amendment. NO HOPE FOR THE WASHINGTON Oct. 2 It is not ex- pected that any of tM numerous amendments to the silver purchase bill in the senate, proposed or of which notice has been given, will be accepted, but three of them will fairly test the greatest strength of the silver men. ‘The are respectively the one providing for free coinage, the Faulkner and the one offered by Quay, extending the AMENDMENTS. purchase of silver until January, 1896. The last named at one time received the most careful consideration of the republican con- tingent. The Faulkner amendment provides for the coinage of the bullion in the treasury representing the seigniorage, at the rate of &3,000,- 000 a month and the purchase of enough additional bullion to make the total of all the silver coined in the country 8800,000,000. Early in the debate this proposition met with much favor and its supporters mustered considerable strength, but even its parent will not now make much of a fight for it. Yet it will go near to bringing all the sil- ver men and compromisers into action. The chance of the passage of any amendment now that the president has ‘so clearly demonstrated his over- whelming influence and strength is so slight as hardly to be weighed in the balance. There are conflicting reports as to what course the populists will pursue, arising naturally from their own in- decision. It is impossible that they should very effectively filibuster or long delay the inevitable. Under the debate rules a constant current of dis- cussion is necessary. There has been some gossip about abandoning the Voorhees substitute and passing the Wilson bill precisely it came from the house. This course would obviate the necessity of sending the measure back for concurrence, but itis not thought probable that it will be adopted. All sides are tired of the fight. Ad- journment or a recess after uncondi- tional repeal becomes a fact would be grateful to the wearied contestants it doubtless would be to the wearied country. The appropriation bill can- not be prepared until the book of esti- mates is received and the ways and means committee holds out no promise of an immediate conclusion of its la- bors. There is still much bitterness of feel- ing in the senate over the recent com- promise confidence game and there strong probability that the feeling will be given open and forcible expression before the conelusion of the debate. It isnot to be doubted that apparently authoritative assurances were given to staunch and unyielding friends of the administration that the compromise would be accepted and it was signed only because of such assurances. It may be that Senator Gray, one of the signing repealers, will make a state- ment, and it is nearly certain that Mr. Morgan will. Senator Stewart came into the senate armed with a lemon and announced to his colleagues around him that if his throat would hold out, and he thought it would, he would oceupy the floor the greater part of the day. @ This announcement had the effect of ehanging to some extent the calcula- tions of the repeal managers who were expecting to get a vote by 3 o'clock to- day upon the pending amendments to the repeal bill, which is to be offered by Senator Peffer for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of i6 to 1, and it now looks as if the beginning of the voting might be postponed for an- other twenty-four hours It certainly will be if Mr. Stewart should carry out his intention of consuming the entire day, for his colleague, Mr. Jones, will want twoor three hours for the con- clusion of his speech, and there are sev- eral others who desire to make short speeches. It is understood that Mr. Gorman will direct the remarks which he will make to the subject of cloture. If he should do so, his speech would be eonsidered as significant because of the 'S MADE. fact of his membership on the commit- tee on rules. Senator Voorhees said that when the the bill reached he would probably ask the senate to continue its session until the work should go into the night. He did not attempt to fix the date when this stage would be reached because of yet to be devoted to the main debate | and also because of some uncertainty | in connection with the amendments. | ON mer at San ely Landed, Loss of a Pacific Mail st Francisco - Passengers But the Cargo Gone. san Francisco, Oct -The Pacific Mail Co.’s steamer City of New York went ashore last evening in a fog and i probably be a total loss.

When the signal lights began to flash the ob- er at Point Lobos cam> to the con- on that it was the steamer Mono- wai that had gone on the rocks, and that news was circulated all over the city. Those who were expecting rela- tives on that steamer from Sydney, \uckland, Samoa and Hawaii at once flocked to the officers of the Oriental & Occidental line. All they could be told was that a steamer had been on Point Bonita, but whether it was the Mono- wai or some other craft no one could tell. Half an hour later the wrecked vessel was made out to be the City of New York. The City of New York was built in Chester, Pa., in 1875, but was practical- ly rebuilt a few yearsago. She was 3,- 019 tons gross, 339 feet long, 40 feet 2 inches beam and 20 feet 5 inches depth. She took away an unusually large car- goof flour and general merchandise, all of which will probably be a total loss Point Bonita is a rocky promontory, which forms one of the heads at the entrance of Golden Gate. It has long been regarded as most dangerous, especially in thick weather. Half a dozen vessels have come to grief on it during the past twelve months. The bark Turline went ashore there and the bark John D. Spreckles was only saved by a fish~ ing steamer, the U.S. Grant. It was there that the ship Spinney broke from her tugs and started up the coast to her doom. STARTLING SUICIDE. A Daughter of Ex-Attorney- land Takes Her Life. WasHINGTON, Oct. Miss Daisy Garland, daughter of ex-United States Attorney-General Garland, committed suicide at her home in this city by shooting herself this morning. She wa years old and is thought to have been insane at the time. Miss Garland was the only daughter of Judge Garland, and as Mrs. Garland died in 1877, she had represented the Garland family in ali social functions during President Cleveland's first term. Nine children were the result of Mr. Garland’s marriage, and of these five died in their early years. The three surviving children are young men, who are attending college in Ken- tucky, Mr. Garland’s native state. Miss Garland had spent a very pleas- ant g ‘with her father and brothers last night at their home and retired in good spirits After break- fast this morning she retired to her room where her brother Will went shortly after to talk with her concern- peral Gar- ing a theater party. He knocked at the door and not receiving any response burst into the room and found his sister lying on the flecr dead. He smelt gas and thought that she had been asphyxiated, but upon ex- amination found a bullet hole in her left side and on the floor by an old re- volver. About two months ago Miss Garland suddenly left home and was found in Baltimore, but since that time nothing peculiar had been noticed. ‘The cause of the suicide is not deti- nitely known, but is attributed mainly to a religious mania.

The work of fighting the flames was very hard on the crew and the passengers suffered much anxiety as well as discomfort, the iron plates of the ship becoming very hot. A portion of the cargo was destroyed, but the damage was not serious. Mrs. Grant Going to California.
