CONGRESS AND THE FINANCES—AN EXTRA SESSION GENERALLY FAVORED—A PROPOSED CAUCUS TO AT- TEMPT TO HARMONIZE THE PARTY ON THE QUES- TION OF REDUCING THE SURPLUS. Anextra session of Congress is a thing that is pretty generally expected, and that some of the leading democrats in Congress are strongly urging upon the President. The leaders of the party are looking forward to the meeting of Congress with read, {though they agree that the earlier they meet the better. The pressing necessity that this next session should be one of action, and the un- certainty, at the same time, of their being able to accomplish anything, is giving them great con- cern. There is no telling how the new House ‘stands on the question of reducing the revenues— ‘the first thing that they will be called upon to act upon. The fact that they were unable to do any- thing wiih a majority of 40 makes them dubious of any better success with the majority reduced to its present slim proportions, UNCEETAINTY AS TO BOW THE NEW HOUSE STANDS ON ‘THE QUESTION OP REVENUE REDUCTION. ‘There was no issue made in the Congressional campaign upon the question of revenue reduction as between democrats, so itis merely a matter of speculation whether the tariff democeats have 1ed or lost most in proportion to their num- rs, The chances are, however, that Mr. Randall still has followers enough to make action without them impossible, Some of the prominent men in ‘the party take a decidedly pessimist view of the situation and can see no good, they say, to come of an early session, as there is ‘no chance for ac- tion, and the more time they have the more hope- lessiy they will become entangled, HOPES THAT A COMPROMISE WILL BE PORCED BY PARTY ‘NECESSITY. ‘The men who are pressing the President to call an extra session think that the necessity of check- ing the accumulation of money in the Treasury 18 ‘80 great now, and that such is the danger of finan- clal distress in consequence thereof, that a com- promise will be forced. ‘They believe that a fail- ure to rise up equal to the occasion will be disas- trous to the democratic party. It is a case of must. ‘Their purpose 1s to have Congress called together 4n October, aad to set to work at once to make as satisfactorv a compromise with Mr, Randall’s fol- lowers as possible. It is belleved that most of them, under the pressure of party r, Will agree to more liberal terms than i himselt would, and that they-may get enough of his dis- ciples should he remain stubborn. The extremists on both sides are reckoned out of this-calculation. The great fear is that by want of harmony in Congress the popularity gained by Cleveland's ad- ministration Will be counteracted, and the chances of party success in ’88 jeopardized. IMPORTANT LEGISLATION 18 DEMANDED for the country this winter, and it is belteved that future success depends much upon how the party in the House discharges itself of the responsibill- ty. Ibis proposed to hold a caucus immediately upon the meeting of Congress, for the purpose ot coming to.an agreement through which the reve- nutes of the Government can be reduced, Every effort will be made to bring the extremes together upon some middle und, and the influence of the Administration will be used to induce the whole party to work together in harmony. A line of action, that shall be cautious and pec rewalte marked out on the very start, if it can be done, and followed closely. ‘The effort willbe made to compel the extreme men in both factions to follow the policy of middié action that will be marked out, and not by their unyielding egotism force the party into a dead-lock, as has been. the cage in two Congresses, The party exigencies wil be urged. tor all sorts of personal sacrifices. Should this plan fail, and the factional antagonisms continue to prevall in the House, the party will be in bad ‘shape to go into-the eamopaign. ‘VIEWS OF KEPRESEMTATIVE NORWOOD.

He fears, however, that theetements.of discord ‘are still alive, and-it will be.diiticult to Inake them act in accord, He says there is no reason to believe that there-has been relatively inuch change in the strength of the two factions. ‘Where new men have been elected from protec- Uontst districts, before represented by demx there fs no reason to presume that they, differ faith, The one thing that he thinks makes the situation more hopeful ts that it is agreed.on all sides that a faiiure to do something: to check the accumulation of money inthe Treas- Ury OUL of the ways of trade and commerce, will do a serious injury to the party. The extremists on both sides would naturally shrink from the re- sponsibility of party disaster. He thinks the wisest and most competent men in the party ‘should take hold the first thing and try to silence all the factional quibbiing, so that a rational set- tlement of the question might be reached. THERE SHOULD BR A CAUCUS. ‘The reporter asked if he thought there ought to be a caucus held on the meeting of Congress. He replied that undoubtediy there should be. ‘The party should come to some agreement and Inark out thelr ans before entering upon the ‘work of the session. It would be a sertous thing for them to go in without plans or understanding. By want ot wisdom, he sald, the next House could do the party much harm. CLEVELAND TO BE THE NOMINEE. ‘The reporter asked him whom he thought the Gemocrats would nominate. “cleveland,” was his prompt reply. “At the South there will be no tion to him, and, if nominated, he will be elected. “His administration has placed the ina good position, He has the wisdom of ‘and generation.” STEAMBOATS Vs.

Preparing toSail for Europe—His Plans for a Year's Tour—Not Certain He ‘Was Defeated in °S4. ‘The New York World prints to-day an“account of a visit made by a correspondent to Mr. Blaine at his home in Augusta, Me., and afterward at his cottage at Bar Harbor, in the course of which Mr. Blaine gave fully his plans for his forthcoming trip, discussed the false reportsof his failing health, and referred at length to the work he has bestowed upon the books just finished. He says his visit abroad will extend over more than a year, and doubtless beyond the time of the meeting of ‘the next national convention. MR. BLAINE IX ROBUST HEALTH. ‘When the World correspondent called at Mr. Blaine’s home his card was received by Miss Dodge, better known as “Gail Hamilton,” who is making a visit to Augusta, but will not accompany Mr. Blaine on bis European trip, as has been stated. Tn a few moments Mr. Blaine came down from hisstudy and entered the large drawing- Toomn on the east side of the house, He walked. at a brisk pace, and his appearance has not changed since he was seen in public during the late cam- Pi His voice 1s as powerful as ever; he is in flesh and much more active than most men ten years his junior, Mr. Blaine’s beard has grown, perhaps, a little whiter, and he has lost the brown, sunburnt color from his face which his outdoor life during the summer usually gives him, AEMr, Blaine is a Sick man his appearanoe gives no hint of it. On the contrary, he looks like a man of thoroughty robust, healtii and unimpaired rr. ‘0 the World correspondent Mr. Blaine said: “I am going abroad, and expect to be away abdut a year.
