SPECULATORS PERPLEXED. jaences Which Had an Unfavor- able Effect on the Market. Speciat Dispatch to the Evening Star. WALL STREET, NEW YORK, Aug. 3.— Today's market was not as satisfactory as the two preceding days, owing to rumors of a probable advance in the rate for call money, which were circulated late yester- day. Savings banks, it is said, are no longer willing to lend their money under the legal rate, when by taking advantage of the prevailing stringency they may add an extra 2 per cent to their interest ac- count. Loans were made today at 6 and 7 per cent. Time money is still to be found only in out of the way places, and the col- | lateral required must be the best obtain- able. The securities being satisfactory, a commission and interest charges are added, so as to bring the rate up to about 15 per cent a year, and the transaction is com- plete but not profitable. Another disturb- ing element was the character of yester- day's speeches in the Senate, which indi- cated mumerous obstacles yet to be over- come before the desired legislation can be obtained. A reaction was due, however, after the spurt tn prices at the beginning of the week, and there is no material changes in the general situation to warrant a decline in values. The market continues narrow and is consequently easily manipu- lated so as to secure small profits both ways. Currency was dull and nominal at rates varying from 13-4 to 21-2, and brokers predict a totel disappearance of the pre- mium in the near future. The sub-treas- ury is daily paying out currency in suf- ficient sums to aNord material relief to the banks and gold engaged last week is now arriving on this side, which will contrib- ute to supplying immediate demands. London was inactive and did no business on this side of importance. Prices at the opening were fractionally better, but slip- ped off gradually, owing to the dullness and reacted acain, so that at 2 o'clock with one or two exceptions, there was not | a variance of half a point between the | opening and the prevailing quotations at | that hour.

SENATE AND HOUSE. Some Sharp Discussion in the Upper Body Today. ALL OVER MR. PEPPER'S RESOLUTION. The Silver Debate Continues in the House. ae SEVERAL SPEECHES MADE. ge THE SENATE. Mr. Pasco (Fla.) gave notice of his sub- stitute to Mr. Vest’s minority bill for sil- ver coinage at the ratio of 20 to 1. The sub: stitute proposes a commission of three cit! zens of the United States to be appointed by the President to ascertain and deter- mine by the Ist of January next a fair and Just ratio between the actual intrinste value of silver and gold as a basts for the free coinage of silver. After the result is re- ported to the Secretary of the Treasury the weight of pure and standard stiver to be contained in dollars, halves, quarters and dimes is to be fixed and determined by him, and silver is to be coined. Mr. Peffer’x Rexolntt The resolution offered yesterday by Mr. Peffer (Kan.), inquiring of the Secretary of the Treasury as to the conduct of national banks on refusing to pay. promptly in cur- reney, the checks of their depositors, was taken up. and a motion to refer It to the committee on Hnarce was made by Mr, Hoar (Mass.), who said that in a time of popular disiress and panic the controller of the curreney should. not be polled to drive the national banks up to the strict letter of the law. The President had appoint- as controller of the curreney a man be- y him to be a clear-headed, canable o had not beea a banker, or specu- prin eredi letter of the law in tomers, to bring them strict and extreme dealing with their cu up to the rack, He thought {t well to wait a week or ten days before “poking Into that question too much.” He had once heard Gen.

Mr. Kyle Against Reference. Mr. Kyle (S.

Gentlemen should study what was their duty today, not what had been the history of the past. The pend- ing proposition was simply one that the United States should stop the purchase of silver bullion upon a falling market. He favored that measure, and quoted froma speech delivered by Senator Stewart at the time of the passage of the Sherman bili predicting that it Would bring che country to a paper basi Had the present administration insteadsot acting in a weak, vacillating manner, stern- ly and unflinchingly announced its ‘ntenticn to keep every dollar equal in value to every other dollar the apprehension and feeling of danger throughout the country would have been xreatly alleviated. He would vote for repeal, because it migat in rome de- gree relieve the distress, but he did not tribute to the Sherman law che existing condition of affairs. Together with a num- ber of his colleagues he bellev-4 that the underlying cause was the threatening attt- tude of the democratic party toward the protected industries. He argued against the free colaage of silver. He admitted that a silver collar could buy as much as a gold dollar, but it was intrinsically worth but 6 cents. "It was equal to 190 cents merely because .t had the credit of the United States venin’ it.

Y.) announced his intention to vote against each and every substitute offered by the gentleman from Missouri Qr, Bland) and to cast his vote for the unconditional repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act. It had failed in the pu which it had been designed to accomplish—to increase the price of sil ver and to increase the supply of currene: It was impotent for good, and seemed to be productive only of evil. ‘Its repeal would help to restore public confidence in the f- nancial policy of the government. He Would vote wiso for the repeal, because he was opposed to the contraction of the eu rency. He was not a monometallist, but at this time he was in favor of placing the United States on a single gold basis. By that path alone could foreign nations be brought to recognize silver, and Ly inter- national agreement to decide upon a basis of currency. ver it. Mr. Covert. Mr. Covert (N.Y.) spoke generally, com- mending the good temper in which this de- bate had been conducted, referred to the slurs cast upon New York in some of the speeches, and vigorously resented them. The state of New York and her people needed no apology or defense for her post- tion on thie question of free coinage. She had spoken as no other state in the Unton had spoken in favor of the rights of the many 4s against the demands of the few it was in behalf of the people of the r public, it was in behalf of the wage earners, that he asked that the purchasing clause be repeaied, and repealed absolutely, with- out condition Silver was like a faithful servitor who had served long and well. But, unfortun- ately, it was like a faithful servitor wh had grown unsteady in his habits. For tht reason it had been shunned by some of { friends. When a servitor got into this con- dition heroic methods were necessary. Sil- ver should be restored, but he feared that the habits into which’ it had fallen were strong; that nothing would accomplish this result except the gold cure. (Laughter and applause.) Would Let the Platform Drop. Mr. Fitch (N. Y¥.) referred humorously the number of poetical quotations made in Speeches of the various members » he said, made the Record look like a school reader. He belleved in party plat- forms; but, between the demands of politi cal platforms made before the present emergency arose and the demands of the workingmen and the starving people, if he had to take his choice he would let the platform drop. (Applause.) The real plat- form upon which the democratic party cat | ried every doubtful state, including the | decisive state of New . Was not con- | tained in “written words.

Counsel maintained that the redskins were squat- ters and held these lands only by suffer- ance, and that neither the savages nor the Secretary had the least right to lease these lands for mining or any other purposes. ‘Theyesaid that the only way in which the asphalt deposits could be utilized would be to restore the lands to the public domain, and that this could be done by executive proclamation without question. Secretary mith expressed his doubts as to his au- thority to execute mining leases on. this reservation. He thought’ that. he would send a communication to Congress relative to the opening of the reservation in whole or in part to settlement. © Why He Raced. From the New York Weekly.
