During thecount of a quorum, the silver men had an informal conference, the result of which wa that Mr. Bland withdrew his point; but c the next amendment, took the floor with a speech on the financial situation. He op- posed the Sherman amendment and appealed to members to stand against this scheme of Wall street. About a month ago there was a threatened financial panic. Stocks were running down—especially trust stocks. which were organized conspiracies against the free trade and commerce of the country—combi- nations that had watered their stock and d sired to maintain them at bigh prices. The manipulators of these stocks desired the pending legislation, and, if they could, the d induce the federal treasury to lc itself up with gold soas to satisfy Europe that there was no danger that interest would not be paid in gold; in that way they could float their inflated stocks and doubly rob the people. The bill might pass today, which would give to the secretary of the treasury unlimited discretion to issue bonds—because there was no lunit to it, and a congress that would give to the secretary of the treasury he did ot care to what political party that retary might belong—the unlimited sought to be enforced by this amend- ment, ought to receive the condemnation of the American people After some further debate the committee arose and public business suspended The house then proceeded to pay a tribute of respect to the memory of the late Senate John Barbour of Virginia and them ad- journed.
