New Yorkers who imagine that 8 de- grees below sero ig cold weather, will have an opportunity to change their views, for that degree of {rigidity will be as nothing to what Is in store for them, if the predictions of the weather prophet this morning come true. Mr, Dunn sat in his cosy office on the top Moor of the Equitable Building this morning and solemnty announced that the second cold wave, which is follow- ing rapidly on the heels of yesterday's visitor, is one of the most severe and extensive that has ever been reported, There is no doubt about its reaching New York, and at its present rate of speed will arrive some time to-morrow.

The Amendments Accepted Were Advocated by the Adminis. tration M WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.—This was the final day of debate on the Springer bill, framed in accordance with the Presi- dent's suggestion for a bond tssue te meet currency requirements. From the start the friends of the Administration showed strength that must have sur prised the opponents of the measure. ‘The situation now favors the passage of the Springer bill. The first significant action in the House this morning on the Springer bill was the rejection of an emendment re- pealing the 10 per cent. tax on the im sues of State banks, On this a vote by tellers showed & in fasor of it and @ against. The Republicans formed the bulk of the opposition, The Brosius amendment to the Springer bill providing for the placing on sale of bonds issued under this act at designated National benks; also the one making the bonds payable in coin; also the one providing that the amount of United Sates notes which may be retired shall not exceed the amount of additional Na- tonal banks issues, were adopted by overwhelming vot The Hagen amendment, and that re- ducing the tax on National bank notes to 1-4 per cent. a year, was adopted ty & vote of 200 to 41. The committee amendments were adopted in every in- stance, Including one reporting the restrictions on the retirement and re- issulng of National bank notes, When the House went into Committee of the Whole and resumed considera- tion of the Administration bill to thorize the issue of $600,000,000 of gold bonds, The pending question was on the appeal from the decision of the the amendment of Mr. The Chair was sustained, 130 to 62, Mr. Broslus (Rep., Pa.) offered an amendment providing that such bonds, of the denomination of $20, $50 and $100, postted for sale with National banks selected by the Secretary of the ‘Treas ury. Mr. Sickles (Dem., N. Y.) made an eloquent appeal for the passage of the pending bill. He believed, he said, that the deliberations of the House on this question mcrked an Important epoch in the history of this country, He had had occasion to differ in the past with the Executive, the choice of his own party, but he forgot those differences when he witnessed the brave, manly action of the President in the present financial crisin, Mr, Cleveland's words were the most illustrious of our pete! and he forgot all in his admiration foi Mr. Cleveland's course on this question This was not the time, he continued, to settle definitely and permanently tho fu- ture of silver or of bank notes. It was eupreme moment in our history; 81 crises gecurred in the history of all, when we must meet our obligations or default. Mr. Hynum (Dem., Ind.) based an ap- peal ‘for the ¢ of the bill on som resolutions uf the Indlanapolle Board of ‘Trade Indorsing the Pres{dent’s recom- ation of the Republican end of Congres: It Washington could look in upon House to-day, he said, tears “as big mountains” would furrow his cheek: dif John © Calhoun could come dow would lash four-fifths of the mem. era from the Capitol. Mr, Brosius amendment was agreed to. An amendment offered by Mr. Wheel- er (Dem,, Ala.) to repeal the State bank tax was’ lost without division, Mr, Livingston (Dem., Ga.) reoftered the Wheeler amendment. with the pro- vision that the repeal should go into effect July 1, 18%, He stated that the President favored the repeal oft) State bank tax, and iy Southern Democrats he ap Supporters of this bill to gly cramp.
