i { | i GOLD MEN GET A SHOCK. Silver Successful in Senate by) a Vote of 41 to 25. VEST LEADS IN THE VICTORY. Upper House Begins Debate on the) Teller Resolution. Repudiation Not Invelved.—Provides for | Payment ef Government Bends in Any Money.—Will Be Hurried to a Vote. Washington, D.C., Jan. 20.—By a vote of 41 to 25 the Senate to-day declared, in effect, a want of confi dence in Secretary Gage’s declara- tion in favor of the single gold standard. Rather suddenly Senator Vest moved to take up Senator Teller’s resolution declaring that government bonds are payable in both gold and silyer coin. The rcll call which fol- lowed was a test yote of the strength of the resolution and showed 41 for and 25 against. The showing for silver in the senate was a shock to the gold men. The silver senators say that to-day’s vote on the Teller resolution marke an epoch in the development of the sentiment in this country of the money question and is a plain notice to Secretary Gage’s single gold standard policy that it does not command the United States Senate. It indicates, also, that in all plans for currency reform any bill which reaffirms the gold standard will meet an unsurmountable obstacle in the senate. The in:pressive feature of to-day’s short but decisive battle for silver was the confessed helplessness of the gold men. They sat gloomily in their seats and offered no obstrue- tion, while the silver senators march- ed in and took the right of way almost without question. The reso- lution providee: That all bonds of the United States issued or authorized to be issued, under the eaid acts of Con. gress hereinbefore recited,are pay able, principle and interest, at the option of the government of the United States ia silver dollars of the coinage of the United States, containing 4124 grains each of standard silver;and that to restore to its coinage such eilver coins as legal tender in payment of said bonds, principal and interest, is not in violation of the public faith ner in derogation of the rights of the public creditor. Mr. Vest of Missouri, the members of the finance committee who had charge of the resolution,spoke briefly upon it, but disclaimed any desire at this time to thresh oyer the old straw of financial discussion. He believed, however, that the time was ripe for a reiteration with emphasis of the declarations of the Stanley Matthews resolution, which had been placed on the statute books twenty years ago, particularly in view of recent statements of the Secretary of the Treasury, in which the Presi- dent, who had, asa member of the House, voted for the original resolu- tions, evidently concurred. | Quay Proctor Rawlins Sewell Roach Spooner Shoup Thurston Stewart Wetmore—25 Mr. Vest then spoke in support} of the resolution, saying he had no desire at this time to thresh over the old straw of financial dis- cussion, but hoped to be able to call} the Senate's attention to some reason why the pending resolution should | be agreed to by the Senate. He said | that twenty years bad passed since | the Stanley Matthews resclution was firet put onthe statute books, but) he believed that there was now reason why there should be reitera- tion of the resolution and the decla- rations contained in them. Mr. Vest maintained that if the resolutions were otiginally correct and proper they were correct and proper at the present time. DOES NOT INVOLVE REPUDIATION. “They do notin any sense,” ssid Mr. Vest, ‘involve either repudiation or dishonor.” The Senator main- tained that the issue involving the consideration of the resolution had been thrust upon the senate by the administration and that the senators were required either to remain silent and by their silence give tacit assent to the recent declarations of the Secretary of the Treasury in favor of a gold standard, these deelarations being evidently indorsed by the President,. or elee to reaffirm the Stanley Matthews resolution, which had been passed by the Senate by a vote of more than 2 to 1, and by the House by an overwhelming majority. “It will be recalled,” said Mr. Vest, “that the present President of the United States was then a mem- ber of the House and voted for these resolutions.” Mr. Vest held that the time had now arrived when the country must either go to a gold standard or make the last and overwhelming contest for the financial system which he believed a great majority of the people were in favor of. He said that he had no desire now fo enter upon an elaborate discussion of the pending resolution, and if any sena- tor on the other side of the chamber desired to speak upon the question he would yield to him. There was no response to this in vitation on the republican side, aud Mr. Vest was preceeding with his remarks when Mr. Platt of Connecti- cut asked if it was Mr. Vest’s inten- tion to press the resolution end secure an immediate vote. “That is,” interjected Mr. Aldrich, “is it the purpose of the Senator to secure a vote upon the resolution to day?” FIKAL VOTE T@ BE WASTENED. “I expect,’ replied Mr. Vest, “to endeavor to secure a final vote upon the resolution whenever, uoder the rules of the Senate, a final vote can be reached.” The Miszour: Senator was pro ceeding with his remarks when the Vice President, the hour of 2 o'clock having errived, laid before the Sen- ate the unfinished business, the census bill Mr. Vest moved to Jay aside the unfinished business and proceed with the discussion of the Teller resolu- put forward such lies you detestable | seam.

Reduction of wages are announced from every querter day after day, until now it may be assumed that they will be uaiversal. The two chief causes assigned for this unwelcome change are, first, that the New England milla are over- stocked with cottoa bought at prices above the present market price, and second, the ccmpetition of the Southern cotton mills, with their cheaper labor less exacting labor laws. While both of these explanations have a certain weight, they do not wholly account for the situation. The competing mills have bad no advantage whatever in the purchase of cottcn. The Southern mills have less than one-fourth of the capacity of the New England mills. If their labor is eheaper it is probably less effective. The advantage of proxim- ity to the cotton fields is more than offset by their remoteness from the market, higher interest charges and other items ef expense. But cven if we accept at their face value all the reasons assigned for the reductions, what become of the pledges of prosperity en which the election of McKinley was carried?

Washington, Jan. 2.--Conogress- man Jerry Simpson utilized fifteen} minutes of time on the consular and diplomatic bill so well in caustic arraigoment of Mr. Dingley’s new tariff bill, that the author of the tar- iff monstrosity side-tracked the dis cussion on Cuba for hour. He; devoted all this time to a labored | jdefense of the Dinglsy schedules, | jand an explanation of the} an the whv even those in his own town, are now | on strike in the effort to prevent a| reduction to starvation wages. H In openiag his attack on the Ding ley bill Mr. Simpson said he was not lying awake nights over the con dition of Cuba. He had been watch- ing for some time the politics of the two great parties. When the Cleve- land Democrats were in power they hesi:ated to recognize Cuta. They were the agents of the bond-holding interests of the couptry. That was) the reason they had not acted. The Republicsn party inherited this policy from Cleveland. PICTURES SHOP GIRLS’ MISERY. Continuing, Mr. Simpson seid that while there were plenty word for Cuba it isa little surpris- ing that no ons found time to say anything for the shop girls working at starvation wages and the mill bands who were battling for a bare living uoder the Dingley law, which had closed factories and reduced wages. It was time some attention was being paid to the subject, he said, for under the rules of ths House no chance was given to legislators The House was no longer a deliberate body, and nothing could be passed without the Speaker first giving his consent. Mr. Simpson's picture of the misery of the New England strikers because of the new tariff so irritated Mr. Divgley that for an hour he talked on the blessings of protection and the prosperity that would follow later. Mr.Simpsoa’s effort to get him to name the day when prosperity would arrive so nettled Mr. Dingley that he refused to be questioned, to the amusement of the House. to saya BOTKIN GETS IN THE FRAY. Mr. Botkin, aleo of Kansas, added to the day's record by getting Mr. Johnson of Indiana out ona limb and then sawing the limb off. Mr. Johsson was making a groat defense of Spain and pleading for more time for it to subjugate aud starve the Cuban patriots, wken Mr. Botkin produced the Congressional Reeord, showing that the same Mr. Pcs Ml now proSpanish, voted in April, 1896, for the joint resolution grant- ing belligerent rights to Cuba. This floored Mr. Johnson and he bad nothing more to say.
