DEPEAT OF THE DEMAGUGUES, Spectut Dispatch to The Chteayo Tribune. WaBHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 9.—It was a day of triumph for the army in the House. Thede- bate aud the vole makes it certaln thattue army can uefther bo reduced at this nor at the regu- lar scasion. Every effort to reduce the army 1rot the lugal standard of 25,000 to 20,000 nen signally fulled, notwithstauding this plan was recommended by the Appropriations Committee, and was fncorporated fn thelr bill. The new Comumittee on Appropriatinna in thelr Grat fmpor- tanc mensure hu"l en signally defeated, and the firar vital Wil of the sesslon has been fed by the ‘Republicans, nssisted Ly tbe ‘Texas delegation' and two other Democratic votes. The Democratic' leaders have been shown that it Is unwise to rely upon their nomt- nal majority of ten votes, and it may be possi- ble ou muny oceasiuns for the Republicans to MARE COMDINATIONS which will cnuble them to tuke control of im- portant mensures. A fact which helped to make this possible s the unplessaut feeliog cutertalned by many prominent Democrats ou sccount of thie composition of the Committecs. The Appropriations Cominittce was forced to abandon the chicl featuro of Its bill to- day under the folluwing clrcumstances: When the Ilouse went inte Commlitice of the Whole, the amendmest of Joe Black- bury, reduciog the arwy to 15,000 men, come up for a vote, For this proposition Blackburn could sccure only 48 votes, thero belng 18 agumnst. Belog i Committce of the Whole, Biackburn could not oltaln the right to have 8 yeu and nay vote called upon this proposition fu the Iouse exeept by unanhmous conseat. THAT CONSENT WAB REFUSED by Democrata as woll as Republicans, wheres wpon Blackburn threateued to do his best to defeat tho calling of the previous questiou ln tho llouse. The uext contest was over s proposition by thoe Texas delegution that the pussage of the Cummittee's bill, practically reduciog the army o 20,000 men, bu gtruck out, which wunla leave the stondard of tht aray at 25,000 men. Upon thls proposition thero was @ coutest of two hours, Whena direct vote was reached the Texus delegation, asaisted by tho entire Repub- Jean vote, succeeded 1o STUIKING OUT THE BXCTION by three majurity, thy voe staudiug 130 yeas, 158 1 Randall exerclying his right os « meui- ber to'vote with the 180, This was the tirst vote, ‘Pho next vote upon the same propusition resulted lu »iriking out=123 yeas to 114 nays, Randall again voulng with the nays. ‘I'he Demucrats who voted with tne Republio- wns fn additlon to the Texas delegution were Luttrell, of Califurnin, aug Williams, of Michi- fun. 1t wus commented upon as a simiticant act that nono of the Demuocratle Kepresentae tives from the States where the Federal troops dfd so wuch rervice in protecting property from the riotors just ful elthice Lad a vote 0i A PRIENDLY WOKD for the army. .

Wasuixoton, D C., Nov, 8.—At the con- ference of Judge Baugs with the Bccretary of the Treasury, Attuey-General, and Commis- sioner of Internal Revenue, which lasted until pearly midnight lag night, the position of tle Government with nispect to tho applicatious of the first and secosd patch of Chicago whisky people was decided, At this couference every detail conpected with the cascs Irow the seizure unto date, including the claims for immunity, was discussed. Thiro is not eotire unapimity of oplnion 38 mw?-: this declslon was. Tho Becretary of the’ Treasury says it cau- pot be made’ public cxcept In coust. Mr. P. H. Pope, who appears to be the only sttorney of rord bere, and who filed the papers making the pew oflers,says *We bave succeeded in getting the Uovernaient to carry out THR AGUERKENT OF IUMUNITY with the first batd; thus relicving them of about $400,000 in ascsasnents and judgmonts.” From this statemang 13 would appesr that tos first bateh have accompilshed substantially what they have desired, and have gained & victors. The Government officers, howerver, are of the opinion that dircctly the con- trary fs the fact, and that the whisks-tnen bave really been defeated. The details of the decision arrived at by the officers of the Goverument liere, 80 far 24 can be ascer~ talned, s ABOUT A3 TOLLOWS: It Is proper to atate that, for purposes which are nut apparent, an alr of mystery fa attempt~ cd to be thrown around some of the details as to the first batch, comprising Roeile, Junker & Co. It can be stated that thelr new offer of compromiae Is rejected, ‘That offer was to pay approximately $6,000 for a complete release of all clalins on judgment the Government has or may obtain agatnst them, This proposition Is rejected, aud Judge Bungs Jate this evening, be- fore leaving for Chicago, received from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS 10 the following cflect against Koelle, Junker & Co.: The Government has already ubtained one judgment of $26,000, which I8 a Ien, the recurity of which s Niehoff and Louts Huck. ‘That clalm the Government can coliect. There is an additlonal claim of 816,500 In the shape of a llen, tor which the Government ajso hus se- curlty, whether good or not'is not certain. The fnstructions to Hangs requtre that the judgiments for these amounts which have been held open pending the efforts to compro- mise be closed and the ammount e collected. That done, .the Governmeut, under its later pretation of the sgreement of tnumunity, WILL BEMIT ALL OTUER CLAINS it may have agalnst the firms. Thesc claims have not passed into judgment., nor fndecd has suit been entered to collect thiem. They repre- sent the pominal amount of §200,000. It (s clatined, however, that the Governtaent has no substantial cvidence which would enuble it to collect u - dullar of that sum. Roelle, Junker & Co. have all slong made their fight to endeavor to avoiid the payment of this £400,000 judgment. This was the principal thiug to be vvercome, but the Government de- meuds that these judinnents + BHALL BE PAID. As to Ford, Oliver & Co., there I8 a llen against them, well accured, for 221,000, which s the only claim of any 8urt the Government hos ogainst that firm.” The judgmnent for that sum the Listrict-Atturney is " ordered to close and collect. That makes §41,000t0 be cotlected from the flest bateh, in addition to the $U0,000 cash aready collected from Keelle, Junker & Co. Merseresu & Co. was™ not foduded fn this blniumllllun. They do not figure In this de- clslon. As to the sccond bateh, the proposition of compromige 1s rejected utterly, and the District Attorpey bas received {nstructions to proceed with the sult. The Uirst batch of .men incladed in this new offer cun haruly be sald to have wou much of a victory. . CONKLING. HE WILL TRY CONCLUBIONS WITIl THE PRESI- DENT. 5 Svecial Dlapateh to The Thicago Tridune. WasmxuToN, D. C., Nov. 0.—The report of aninterview bud with Scnator Conkling in New York, which reacbed bercthfs afternoon, has produced a protound sensation. It bas been well known here that Conkling did not approve of the Civil-Service policy pursued by President Hayes, but no one was preparcd to héar the con- temptuous allusions to the President and his Cabinet, espeviully Sccretary Evarts, in which the New York Senator is reported to bave in- dulged. The entire futerview Is rezarded asa deflant chollenge and formal throwing down of the gauntlet 1o President. Hayes, and the other. Republican Senators will be forced to take sides ‘with one or the other. It secms now handly_possible .that the preecnt extra scsslon can close without a dem< onstration by Corklinir fu the Senate, and this report of his vicws and uttemuces shows that L is terribly fn carnest. Conkling arrived here to-nieht, and thuse Republicans who agree with him are in Ligh spirits over the probable congest within the party, but the supporters of the Administration are NOT AT ALL DISMAYED, The New York Custom-House oominations, nqw before the Scoate Committee on Come merce, and the numination of Gen. Harlan to e o Justice of the Bupreme Court, now before the Benate Committco on the Judidary, have been beld back until Senator Coukling feturns. It remains to be scen whether he will open fire ou them, or take some occasion to ventilate his viows {n open Bena NOMINATIONS. SANDYORD'S CASE.

Jumping from the tenth in 1873 to the third jn 1877, ft in expected that India will become a dangeroul competitor of the United States In the grain trade, as no pains will be spared to develop her resources in that line. ‘The Iinports of tresh meat from the United Btates, as soon as the prejudices against it arc dissipated, will almost become {1)imitable. In the e&zll]n monttis the imports of cotton were $120,000,000, of which $90,000,000 were from the United States.

C., Nov. 8.—To-day Senator Jones was at the Treasury Department, and had 8 short cross-fire of words with Secrctary 8her- man concerning the bill. About the first saluta- tion Jones reccived was as follows: Beeretars—*¢ Well, Jones, I sce you are golng ahead with your plans. Do you know that you have got the people across the water very badly scarcd " Benator—'*Glad to hear it. We scared them in the Revolationary War, and again in 1813; and it's s good thing to Lnow we can acare them again. I never did see any sense in letting the bankers and capltalists of Europe tell the people of Ameriea how to* manaze themselves. That has been golng on sbout loug enough.” Sceretary—*' But don't you see, Jones, what [y w\‘\'fif thils will exercise” to injure the Govern- menl Senator—* fow fs it going to burt the Gov- ermuent! FEvery dollar you owe you can pay in sliver, and the money you collect is also receiv- able for debts,” Becretary—** But you ean’t pet it in circula- tlon, because importers will want it to pay their dutles with.” Benator—'Well, and what becomes of it then? \When sllver is pald at the Custom-House, does it become the property of the Collcctors? Noj; it Is carried at unce lotu the asury; and when you get it there they can keep it, and so what happenst Don't you know that you have l.ln:nd; sunounced thut the revenues are hardly cooug to ~meet the current ex- penses? I'd ke to kpow, nuw, bow you can srrange to shut upa lot of circulating ine- dium when things are in that condition. Yo can never dolt.and you would not care to try the cxperiment. You will be glad coough to puy it right out s fast as it cowes {uto the T'reasury, to svoid any conflict with Congress.” Here the nterview euded, both realizing that nefther could vonvioce the otler. Bubscquently Scnator Jones said that if he Iind his way he would favor an smendmeut lovking to a change of subsldiary coln; such, for fnstance, as ordering the Becretary of the ‘Treasury as {ast as siiver halt-doliars” come in to scud them to the mint to be colued over ngaln and ralsed to the exact standerd of balf the sliver dollar in weight. They ore now a little degraded, and this would wnuke the coluage unlform. e would then Hmit the legal-tender 3unll||es ol the subsidiary coin, from yuarters down to one dollar, Il sayn there fa great Ignorance s to the capacl- tles of the mints. that, accordiog to Director Linderman's statament, they eannot tum out more than 000 annually, and, at that rate, it -would ~require from . five. to ton years to place 1 circulation as much of the siiver dolisr colnage as the country requires. ‘There could possibly be no overtlow "ol silver dollars. He also volunteered the statement that when the bill became a law, and the coun- try saw that prosperity und not ruln followed as o vonsequence, that the hard-money men would be at & luss to conjure up an explanation of the TeasVLs. 1,100, 50,000, 00C AN IMPERATIVE RESOLUTION. pateh to New }ork Jler WAsRINGTON, D. uld, , Nov. 7.—A resolution assed the House yesterdny which appears to finn'e been lost sight of in the hurry of adjourn- ment. It was otfered by Mr, Rice, of Ohio, aud calls upon the retary of , the Treas- ury io . s mandatory “monner for fo- formation which 1t was designed should be iot {n tinte tor the uss of the flouse during the financlal debate. 3t empbutically directs the Becretary of the Treasury to report to the Huuse withiu ten days froin the passage of the resolution the exact amount In detail of actual pold coiu and gold bulllun now in the Treasury; the kind and simount fu_detall of all outstand- inz obligations payable on demand ln gold; the kiud, character, aud amount indetafl vl all items counted s coln Jv the Treasury as published in the public dubt statement for Nov. 1, 1877, with the kmount of actual gold owned by the Uove ernment available for the resumption of specte ayments aiter deducting all such demand ob- iirations, together with the accrued juterest on the public debt up to and includ- ing the date on which such repurt is made to the House. By s mistake of the authorthe word * ten * fustdhd of **three” duve was Inserted fu the resolution as passed. It has hitherto been _the custom to respectfully ree rjuest heuds of Departments to furnish informa- tion; but as the Becretary of the Treasury is not cousidered partinl to the repealers, eapo- clally to those from Ohlo, the Democratic men- bers of the delegation from that Btate thought 1t best to make their resolution fmperative. THE HENATS COMMITTEE AND BLAND'S BILVER . BlLl. Benator Joues sald to-day that five members, n majority of the Finance Cominittee, were In favor of reporting the Sliver bill possed by the touse to the Scnate without smendment, leay- fug the mewbers to auicud in the Scnate, The ubject of dolng so is to take it out of the honds of the Comunitice as suon as possible aud give the Senate time to debate the subject before the Appropriation bills are paseed by the House, Henator Kernan, of the Financs Comunittes, says that there oupht to be wome Hmit to silver coluage. Perhaps it would be well to withdruw the one and two dullar legat tenders and Na- tional Bauk notes, and substitute su equal amount in sllver, which would reiuain in creu- Iation as frecly as the subsidiory colnage has sluce the withdrawal of fractioval currency. But hio does not think it wise 1o put out silyer coln 1u 1arge amounts while these sisll bills arv in cireulation. He will certainly vote toamend the bill, if bs does mot offer the amendment bimself. Lenator Allisou, of the sume Committee, while he has pot fully made up his mind about the manper i which the bill ehould opluion that It witl x})m the Senatosul us It came from the House, Benator Wallace wilt vote for the bill as it came from the llouse, or in sny form tlat em- bodics the deinands of the country as generally understood hy the Democracy. Eenator Bayard, thu other Democratic mem- ber of the Committve, will vote to amend by limiting the smount and ita uss. Senators Ferry and Howe are reported as in favor of the bill'as it ‘while Senator Morriil, the Cliatrian, aud Senator Dawes will put down 1le limit to subsidlary coluage, es provided at preseat. s scnnmr.lnnn? of Nevada, will vote against the bill if aruended.

They sce that 1t s not a Democratic tidal wave, and that they owe thelr sucress more to the folly of the machine Republicans than to their own strength with the pcople. The pussage of the Bllver bill and the acritnonious discussions nver the Ewing bill have discouraged the shrewder Democratic leaders, who sco that the breach be- tween Eastern and Western Democrats widens coutinually, and that no hope of healing it now Appears. %‘huu men sec that the fall elections do not show much Democratic thunder. Thelr Joy is of o mwiest kind. ‘As to the anti-flaves Republicans, they aro very bitter and full of dlsgnst. Mr, Conkling, when asked the other day whether he was go-~ ing to [ndiana'to attend "Mr. Morton’s funcral, n:Pllcd: 4 Noi 1 am going to New York, to my own.” It is n somcwhst solomn time with all the anti-Hayee men.

On the whole to-day has been o solemn da for the politicians of both sides. The antl- Hayed Repubticans sre much less hopeful than they were of breaking down the Administra- tlon. . The Domocrats beginto think it is “ time 10 stop fuoling,” as one of them remarked; timo to make an effort to get questions out of tho ‘way on which the party can never hope toagree, such as those now before the House, and to frame a policy on which all parts of it are or can be united. Pispateh to New, Jork Tribuue. WasninaToN, D. L., Nov. 7.—Thelrepresent- atives of neither of the political partles felt that they had much occasion 10 rejoico at the result of ‘the Btate electious yesterday. ‘The Republicans, judging from the oplnions cexpressed by repreeentative men from New York, Massachusctts, Yennsylvania, and New Jerscy, and fromn the reports which had been read from those States within the last few days, ex- ected an overwhelming defeat in three of hem, and felt by no means sure that Gov. Rice would carry Massachusetts.

Naor do those other members of the party, Who belleve that the nolicy of the I'resident and his Cablnct Lhas not been o wise ouc, rejoico any the less in Gov. Rice’s triumbh, The result of the election in New York, as shown Ly the latest reports this evening, is also much more gratifylog to the Republicans than to the Democrats. The lattor expected ot least to make the Htate Eenate a tla and to carry the Assembly b{ o small majority. They thought it possible even that thay mf['ht. capture both branches of the Legls- 1ature, in which event they hoped 30 to redis- tnct the Btate ss to make their control of that Lody in_the future assurcd. Members of the Admintstration expressed the bellef that, had there been substanticl barmony {n the Roches- ter Conyentiou, ‘or even after that Con~ vention If the Republicans who were dissatis- fled with #ta munagement and procecdings liad taken hold of the work with zeal and eare nestuess, the State might yet have been saved. At the same time the proportions of the Demo- cratic victury are so much smaller in New York than most [epublicans feared, that & mujority of the party fecl rather inclined to congratula- tion than otherwise over the result.
