WASHINGTON, April 23.—President Cleveland deprecates having a financial policy thrust ready-made upon the Ad- ministration. For this reason he repu- diates the interview which Secretary Morton gave a few days ago in favor of a gold basis, ‘The Bound Money Convention, to be held at Memphia next month, will fur-| nish the opportunity which he desires, and at that time the President will go somewhat more explicitly into detall, leaving, however, to Secretary Carlisle the duty of outlining the praatical meas- | ure of reform which the Administration will desire to father. That it will have a gold baxis goes without saying, Other than that, It will consist, as has been indicated be- fore in these despatches, in bank re- form. The shrewdest play of this season te going on right now, over the question of reorganizing the Senate. The Kepub- lcans Want it, the Democrats hate to giv it up. But party Ines are shifting More rapidly than ever before, and the new alignments Is ulready In sight. There is a free silver majority in the Senate, but it still lacks coherence, and that is what is sought. If It can get togeher it will reorganize the whole business If it cannot it will rest con- tent in controlling the Finance Com- mittee, which It now has. Southern free silver Democrats want to repeal the State bank tax; Western free silver Republicans want the reat of the Territories admitted—Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma; both sections want the Income Tax strengther The tariff is lost to sight one mentions it. But out of the Issues men- tioned, live and burning, the | union must ‘be forged to control the Senate. Against such union of forces are the leering committees of both parties. The majority of both committees are Eastern in their tendencies, sympathles and political tenets, Gorman and rice are the ruling spirits of one, Quay and Chandler of the other. Whether parti- san manipulation can hold out another Winter against what the Free Silver- {tes consider manifest destiny remains to be seen. Much depends on the attl- tude of the Populists and the extent of thelr irreconcilabllity. UMPIRE LYNCH RESIGNS. Tim Hurst Repinces the Unsntisfac- tory Judwe at P Ground A telegram was received at baseball headquarters his afternoon, addressed to President Freedman, by President Nick Young, from Washington. Its con- tents were surprising. It was a terse statement of two facts only. The first was that Mr. Lynch had resigned; the second that Tim Hurst would officiate in his stead at to-day's game on the Polo Grounds, ‘Tim Hurst was signed by the Eastern League, but in conversation last night with an “Eyening World” reporter it became apparent that President Powers would release him to the National League if the demand for his services was forthcoming.
