BLAXD WAS DR- YRATED—A HOPE THAT AN OPPORTUNITY MAT BE HAD TO TAKE AN UNTRAMMELED VOTE—BAD OUTLOOK FOR MR. CLEVELAND. ‘The action of the Housb today in the decision of the chair, by which Mr. Bland’s free-coinage amendment was ruled out of order in the sundry civil bill, probably settles the chances for the passage of a free coinage bill by this Congress. There were probably some Tepublicans who voted to sustain the decision of the chair, who himself is a silver man, because they believed that the decision was ‘in accordance with the rules. A direct yote on a free bill_ might result dif- ferently, but it is not clear how a direct vote on gach a bill ean be hed this Congress. nua} 1e coinage com: decided ‘hat they need more information, to be ncquired through hearings, before they can Vote intelligently on the reporting of any silver probably strengthen them in their position. The silver men have given up all hope of etting any sort of report from the committee. ‘oday Mr. Bland and Mr. Bartine left the com- Mittee. refusing to take any farther part in the proceedings, since it was evident to them that Xt was not ihe purpose of the committee thet anything should bé done. In doing this they jaced all their faith in their ability to force the issue before the House by attac ing the provision for free coinage to an ap- riation bill. To do this it was necessary, as they all appreciated, to overrule the deci- sion of the chair, which necessarily would be in accordance with the rules. A TEST OF THE SILVER STRENGTH. ‘Today's vote was a test of their strength on this sort of a motion, and the result makes it evident that no attempt to attach free silver to an appropriation bill in the House can carry. ‘The silver men still hope to have such an amendment sent over as a rider from the Sen- | ato, but they have no more certainty of suc- | cess there than they seemed to have when they first made the move in the House. House by the Senate it is probable that the House committee on appropriations would de- vise some means of getting rid of it. It may be that there is a majority in the House in favor of free coinage of silver, but it is not e bold, determined majority, with the earnestness nec- essary to force the issue. ‘The leaders of the republicans do not pro- | Rose to let a free coinage bill go to, the Presi- nt 28 a rider on an appropriation if they can {help it. as this would make bis position par- ticularly embarrassing and would prob- ably result in the failure of an appropriation bill, making an extra sewion necessary. It is asserted with a positiveness which indicates knowledge that the President has made up his mind that he will veto any bill which carries free coinage, even if it should be one of the regular appropriation bills. ‘A CHANCE FOR A FREE VOTE TO BE GIVEN. It is probable that if the republican managers were satisfied that free coinage could carry they would give itachance on a direct vote rather than have it goon an appropriation bill. This idea has given rise to the sug- estion that some votes against Mr. jand’s amendment were secured today by the assurance that some chance to vote on the question, freed from entanglement with any other measure, would be given before the If ‘this be true, it is probable that the chance will not be given much before the 4th, unless the coinage committee is con- the proposition. é ‘The situation is anything but encouraging to the advocates of free coinage, and the prevail- ing opinion is that there is not the least chance of a free coinage law going on the statute books during this Congress. From a partisan point of view this isa seri- ous matter for the democrats, especially for the frieuds of Mr. Cleveland, who want this ques- tion of silver settled now, so that it may not be an issue in the next campaiga. ‘Mr. Cleveland’s views on. the silver question would probably weaken him asa candidate should that issue enter into the canvass. For this reason the democrats, without much regara to their views on silver, want the mattcr to be got out of the way during this Congress. ‘The ulti ver men, however, carirg more for that than anything else in politics. get com- fort from the belief that nothing can prevent the enactment of a free coinage law by the next Congress. i ae ieee M.

In the first place, he went on to say, the free | sngar clause is going to open up for the United States a new source of the sweet commodity, | other than Cuba, so that should Spain be in-| clined to hold off from a reeiy arrange- | ment the United States could afford to hold | aloof from any efforts to induce her to make the agreement. e XOW INDEPENDENT OF CUBA. In short, this country is now independent of Cabs for its supply of sugar, and, in the opin- ion of many, this isa great advantage. Then, too, the articles placed on the free list of this | country are such that no especial disadvantage te shared by the United States we the new a while uni e single clause sytiootaml pooduets alone this party to the agreement can ‘a harvest of millions. | hereas now the majority of Brazilian pur- | chasers of machinery aud tools go to Europe | for such goods, under the reciprocity agree- | ment they will find it a great advantage to thrn | their attention to our factories and mills. } This eame official then went on to praise the | Secretary, and called attention to the fact that Mr. Blaine had lost no time in bringing about | an arrangement, but bad accom; this “most masterly’ move” in an incredibly brief period. It is now plain that Senor Mcndonca’s “‘ape- cial mission” to this country was solely for ro- | ciprocsl purposes, and his clevation to the post minister was ‘probably a reward from bis country for having accomplished his task so well. It is unoficially announced that similar arrangements between this country and others of South American republics will | soon be entered it 7 Brazilian “treaty” was attempted first because of the greater importance of the Brazilian markets io | this country, as well as because it was thoaght | necessary to’ feel the public pulse with one | stroke before making an advance all along the Kine. It ig quite apparent this morn- ing that the arrangement has met with general approval, ‘The democratic press, in noting the pena. toward regarding it ae simply ance by Mr. Blaine of a movement inaugu- rated under democratic auspices. In other words it is necessary to approve the move- ment. and it ia done with as good grace as possible. GORSIP AT THE CAPITOL. There was a great deal of gossip at the Capi- tol about the President's proclamation in re- gard to the new reciprocity arrangement with Brazil this morning, and the comments were without exception favorable and congratula- tory. A number of members of the House committee on foreign affairs were seen by a Sra reporter, and discussed the subject freely and with evident satisfaction. Representative McCreary of Kentucky said that he had been for years an advocate of the policy of extending our trade with Mexico and 1 the Central and South American states and also with Canada, and had frequentiy favored reciprocity with ‘those countries in the House and incommittee. So faras this Brazil reciproc- ity agreement was concerned, Gov. McCreary said that while it did not’ seem sufficiently broad and comprehensive to satisfy all his preferences in that direction, he was in favor of giving ita fair and full trial before criti- cising it, A MOST BENEFICIAL INFLUENCE. Representative Thompson of Ohio said that he had great faith that the new treaty with Brazil would have a most beneficial influence on the business interests of this country, and be was glud to perceive, from the published comments this morning, that business men all over the country were expressing their appro- bation of the treaty. No one who had not looked into the matte: carefully could realize the recent vast development of trade in South America, and it was of the highest importance that the United States should secure, if not the | entire control of this trade, at least a fair share of it, for our trade with Europe had al. ready reached nearly its utmost posrible pro- | portions, and we must now seek to dispose of our surplus products in new fields. We could never hope to sell a “barrel of pork or a bushel of grain” in the South American markets until more favorable business conditions prevailed Letween this country and that he re, and the negotiation of ‘this Brazilian agreement seemed to be an important step in that direc- tion. A FORTUNATE EVENT FOR THIS COUNTRY. Representative Hooker (Miss.) expressed his gratification at the successful outcome of the ne- gotiations with Brazil. It would prove, he thought,s fortunate eventfor this country.which now. by the system of mutual exchange outlined in the President's proelamaticn and the corre- spondence between Secretary Biaine and Senor jendonea, would probably be enabled to secure an appropriate market in South America, where hitherto Great Britain, France, Germany and Italy had enjoyed ulmost @ monopoly. Gen- eral Hooker called attention to the fact that he had always favored such extensions of our trade, especially with our neighbors on this continent, and that he had only a few days ago advocated in the House the poliey which had now been adopted toward Brazil. He consid- ered the Pan-American movement a most important one in its entirety, and hoped that this Brazilian agreement might lead to similar agreements between this country and the other South American republics. Representative Ketcham of New York briefly but emphatically declared that the effect of the Brazilian treaty would be in the highest degree favorable to American business interests. eee SP See easees DECEIVING PENSIONERS.

The president of the board of trustees of the public schools has written a letter to the House District committee in regard to street railroads and the reduced fare for school children. In his letter Mr. Mitchell says: “I cannot too strongly emphasize your ac- tion in relation to street railways in this city in requiring them to give to the people better ac- commodations and ata reduced rate of fare. I am notaware of a single instance in which they have not endeavored to take all and give back the least. Toone point I wish to ask your attention and that is that all the street Tailways shall be required to ise school qhildren’s tickets at a rednced rate—suy ten jor 25 cents. Our city is large and grows and many of the young people that attend the High School are compelled to ure the cars and some of them two lines of cara and where there are no transfers. If not school children’s tick- ets, then compel the roads to take all young People twelve yearvand under tor half fare. is will be no injustice on the railways and but a sinall retarn for the great privileges they obtain in the use of the atreets of the ety. “Objection is made to this by some of the directors of the railways that the property holders are paying for the education of the children.

A vigorous protest bas been received by the House district committee from property hold- ers and leaseholders on 17th street northwest, on Connecticut avenue and H_ street and 15th street against any street railway on these streets.
