Senator Gorman wus on the floor of the House for » time this morning talking with members, ‘The silver men are worked up over the attitude of Mr. Gorman and of Mr Hill (through his friends here). Both are said to be anxious to prevent the Biand bill being sent to the Senate. The silver men are complaining that Gory and H fraid to face the questionand t to save themsctves they want the House to take the responsibility for the death of the bill. WHAT SOUTHERN MEN sax. Some of the southern men declare that for them to agrce to smother the bill would insure their defeat at home, and that they cannot af- ford to sacrifice themselves in the interest of presidential candidates. hey say that if the goes to the Senate both Gorman and Hill will vote for it and that they merely want to avoid that necessity. NOTHING WILL COME OF THE caUcUs. Itis apparent, however, that the fact that Gorman and Hill, as well as Mr. Cleveland, are urging that the silver question be set aside is greatly perplexing their followers in the House. It is not likely that anything definite will come of the caucus, but the silver men are ready to yield’ so far as to accept a very late spite of the fact that there is a prospect of a filibuster against the measure which might carry the fight to the end of the session with- out action unless the committee on rules will interfere to secure a vote. THE DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE. Another question that will come up in the caucus is the selection of the democratic con- gressional committee.

The first olive branch was tendered to the silver men by Senator Gorman of Maryland this morning, but it was by no means received in @ spirit which gave hope to the east- ern democrats. Senator Gorman came over to the House and asked Mr. Bland and his friends to consent to the appointment of a “joint caucus committee” by the democratic Representatives aud Sena- tors, which should ccntrol party measures of legislation during the present session and de- cide what bill should have precedence in the order of consideration. MR. BLAND RESECTS IT. Mr. Bland rejected tho suggestion almost with indignation. He declared that nothing would satisfy the free coinage men of the House but the passage of the free coinage vill, and that, too, st an early day. He served notice, 60 to speak, on Mr. Gorman and the eastern democrats that no postponement or dallying with the question would be permit- ted by the free coinage men. He insisted that the issue must be met and that, so far as the House is concerned, a tree coinage bill must be passed. Particular stress was laid by Mr. Bland upon the intention of the free silver people in the House to pass a bill regardless of the senti- ments of the democratic Senators, and he asserts that no joint caucus or joint committee would be allowed to exercise any dictation what ever in the matter. It isthe intention of the free coinage men tonight to propose a resolu- tion in the caucus of democratic Representa- tives declaring that the House must passa free coinage bill this session and naming a day for its consideration. Lively opposition will be made to any proposition by Mr. Harter or his friends that the Senators be given a voice in the caucus. A number of the demo- cratic advocates of free coinageare absent from the city, but Mr. Bland and his friends feel coniident that they have sufficient strength to control the result in tonight's caucus, A COUNTER PROPOSITION. The opponents of Mr. Bland and his col- leagues are preparing a counter proposition, which they will present and upon which the battle will be fought. ‘This sitioa will name a date or’ inetract the committee on rules to name a date upon which the free coinage bill shall be taken up for discussion, and shall be the only subject of discussion for one week or longer. At the expiration of that time, however, it shall understood that’ a motion for postponement of final action shall be in order and that no vote sball be taken on the Bland bill until Decem- ber 10--after the presidential election. This program, they contend, would en- able all ‘the’ free coinage men to de- clare their position in the House and use their speeches next fall for whatever practical effect they might have in their respective dis- tricts. At the same time the democrats asa party would be 4] the necessity of recording themselves upon this precarious issue until after the general elections when the Bland bill could be taken up and considered without regard to its political effect on the party. ——_—_____—_ THE PENSION OFFICE, Meeting of the Special Committee to In- vestigate Ite Operations. The special committee appointed to investi- gate the management of the pension office under Commissioner Raum today began its task. It was decided to hold sessions on Mon- day and Thursday of each week beginning at 10 o'clock a.m. Representative Enloe of Connecticut, who, with Representative Cooper of Indiana, is con- ducting the prosecution, suggested that as the committee might wish to examine of- fice employes its convenience would be sub- served if a room in the pension office was set apart for the committee's use. ‘Ex-Representative Payson, whois counsel for the commissioner, said that ‘Mr. Raum would willingly do thie and only asked a day to when the room would be needed in order that it might be made ready, all the rooms in the pension office being in use, Mr. Enloe then offered in evidence certain ‘of the record in the investigation of the [ist Congress relating to appointments and nsion office.
