Every Compromise Defected—A Decisive Majority for the Repealers—The Final | Vote 240 Ayes to 210 Nays- Probable ' Action of the Senate. The final votir peal question began sharply at noon on Monday. votes were taken first on the different ratio, 16 to 1, 17 to 1, 18 to 1, 19 to 1 and 20 to 1, as amendments to the Wilson repeal bill. Then upon substituting the Bland- Allison limited silver coinage act for the Sherman silver purchasing act. Then, when all these propositions were rejected, the vote was on the adoption of the Wilson bill, without amendment, for the unconditional repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act, requiring the monthly purchase by the United States of 4,500,000 ounces of fine silver. The votes were as follows: For a ratio of 16 to 1, 123 yeas, 225 nays; for a ratio of 17 to 1, 100 yeas, 240 nays; for a ratio of 17 to 1, 102 yeas, 239 nays; for a ratio of 19 to 1, 105 yeas, 287 nays; for a ratio of 20 to 1, yeas 121, nays 222; for the proposition to re- enact the Bland-Allison limited silver coinage act, yeas 136, nays 213. All the amendments being rejected, the vote was then taken upon the di- rect issue of repealing silver purchases by the Treasury, with this result: Yeas 240, nays 110. Of the 240 votes cast for the bill 140 were cast by Dem- ocrats and 100 by Republicans. Against the bill 74 votes were cast by Demo- crats, 25 by Republicans and 11 by Populists. The Wilson bill, as adopt- ed, simply puts a stop to the purchase of new silver by the Treasury. It does not demonitize silver or in any way Tepudiate the $700,000,000 in silver money now in the Treasury or in cir- culation. The bill is considered to be a preliminary step to an effort by the United States Government to bring about an international agreement for a@ proper ratio between gold and silver. NATIONAL F CAPITAL NOTES. The Government paid all employees Pe a i their August salary in gold. Sehator Colquitt is daily wheeled in and out of the Senate in an invalid’s chair. The report continues to prevail that Assistant Secretary of State Quincy will shortly resign. Ex-Congressman Proctor M. Knott has been offered the mission at Hawaii, but hesitates to accept it. The House has put in its time sine last week discussing the new ruk which will be adopted during the pres- ent week. Secretary Carlisle has ordered that the United States Mints at Philadel- phia and San Francisco be fully manned and the full capacity of both mints be utilized in coining gold bul- lion. President Cleveland and Se Lamont occupied a box at the Theatre Saturday evening. They ap- parently enjoyed the performance of Frohman’s comedians in the new play, “The Other Man.” President Cleveland’s return to Washington in vigorous health sets at Test sensational reports as to his con- dition. He has entirely recovered from the effects of the operation some time since for removing decayed teeth a portion of diseased bone in connection therewith. Mr. Eckels, the Comptroller of the Currency, speaks very hopefully of the financial situation. He would not pre dict how long it would be before mat- ters had resumed their normal condi- tion, but the bottom had been reached, as far as the banks were concerned, and financial affairs were on the up grade. Senator Voorhees, Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, stated that he was in favor of a liberal allowance of time for debate of the silver repeal bill, but that when it was evident dis- cussion was indulged merely to con- sume time he should insist upon a vote. The Treasury Department Saturday resumed the payment over its counter of paper money. For the past ten days only gold h been paid for Treasury checks. This has reduced the gold and also allowed the ‘Treasury to secure a stock of paper money, believed to be sufficient, at least, for present needs. The Commissioner of Patents has rendered a decision that a State’s trade mark cannot be lawfully registered as that of a mercantile corporation pos- sessed of full powers, and consequently the State of South Carolina cannot re- ceive authority to pursue, or be pro- tected in pursuing, the liquor traffic in the country at large. It can be stated on adequate author- ity, and without any impropriety, that the domestic event in Mr. Cleveland's family which was expected to occur at Buzzard’s Bay in August, is now ex- pected to occur in the White House about the middle of September, where Mrs. Cleveland will resume her resi- dence on her return to Washington. President Cleveland arrived in Wash- ington Friday d immediately pro- ceeded to the White House, where he disposed of themass of public business that had. accumulated during his ab- sence. At 11 A. M. a Cabinet meeting Teie,non 845 was held, at which all the members were present except Secretary.

The condition of the Treasury was also under discussion. but nothing looking to immediate ac- tion was decided upon. Discovery of New Oil Wells, The discovery of an oil well at Ak- the repea which the Pr as quite sat | ron, O., has caused much excitement in upon the silver re- ; that vicinity, and many leases are be- ing made of territory for miles around | the strike. The oil tests 28 and 29 de- grees specific gravity, and is of a much finer grade than Lima oil. It is said to equal the famous quality found in the neighborhood of Franklin, Pa. Good Luck for “Chauncey.” Paul Hartchez writes to tell Chaun- cey M. Depew that he has come on to New York expressly to have his will drawn so as to constitute Mr. D. his sole heir to a $2,000, g property ir Cuba in return for a loa. of $500 made to him eighteen years ago by Mr. De- pew, who cannot recall the man or the loan. i Important Pension Order. Commissioner Lochren of the Pen- sion Bureau issued an order modifying the practice of the office as to suspen- sions of pensions. The most important change is that which directs that here after there will be no suspensions ex- cept in cases where the record shows on its face that the soldier was not entitled to any pension whatever. USS. The wind attained the force of 3 hurricane at Savannah, Ga., on Mon- day. Fully $10,000,000 worth of prop- erty was destroyed, and it is estimated that forty persons were killed. Many buildings were demolished, and ship- ping in the harbor suffered t loss. The town of Kernersville, in Forsyth County, N. C., was struck by the cy- clone and 100 houses were blown down. Four bodies had at last accounts been taken from the ruins, and at least fifty persons were more or less injured. Kernersville is eighteen miles west of Greensborough, on the Northwestern North Carolina Railroad, and has a population of about 700. Every house in the town was either wholly 6r part- ly demolished. Rumors of many other disasters in small towns from Georgia to Virginia have been received. Details of loss of life and destruction of property are also received from Brunswick, Ga., and points further south along the coast. Home Rale will Prevail. The final stage of the Home Rule bill, set for August 30, has led to the most extensive preparations by both Liberals and Tories. Mr. Gladstone is expected to close the debate by an- other great speech. The bill will be passed, and will go to the House of Lords on Monday, September 4. Mr. Gladstone has made temporary peace with the Scotchmen who were claiming his attention for their de mands before they went further with him in Irish home rule. He has thrown a sop to the Radicals, with their “New- castle programme,” by promising that the next parliamentary session shall be devoted exclusively to British af- fairs. He has also used the soft an- swer to turn away the wrath of the Welshmen in the matter of church dis- establishment. Troubles Over Pensions. There is serious trouble brewing be- tween Elijah A. Morse, member of Congress from the Twelfth Massachu- setts District, and William Lochren, of Minnesota, Commissioner of Pensions. Mr. Morse has informed Mr. Lochren that he expects him immediately to or- der a review and re-examination of a particular pension case; “otherwise,” he says, “I shall call the attention of Congress and the country to this case at the first opportunity.” Mr. Lochren has replied: “I shall have to submit to this dire alternative, for I assure you I will not order a review ‘or re-examl- nation of the case.” Mr. Lochren fur- ther suggests that Mr. Morse is an ill- informed “demagogue” with “a capa- city for willful and malignant lying,” and afflicted further with a develop- ment of “sordid meanness,” which im- pels him to violate a law of Congress by wrongfully using a Government penalty envelope to convey a “silly libel” and thereby “swindle his Gov- ernment out of the sum of two cents.” Walking Around Our Boundary. Chris. Miller, a Chicago newspaper man, who is walking around the boun- dary line of the United States, report ed in St. Paul Tuesday. He has so far covered 5,900 miles. He went from New Orleans to Spokane. Now he has left for Chicago to follow the shore line to the Atlantic, and thence to New Orleans. He trusts to the notoriety of the feat and pickings from lectur2s en- livened with boxing to keep up his pocket-money. He left New Orleans November 13, 1892, and has two and one-half years from thet time to win the wager. He has lost thirty pounds in weight. The Cholera in Hungary. The cholera is slowly but steadily spreading in the great ceutres of popu- lation in Galicia and Hungary, where it is difficult to eradicate it. A dis patch from Trivoli says several cases of Asiatic cholera have been found among the Mecca pilgrims and the patients have been taken to the hospi- tal. Double guards surround the hos pital. Most of the pilgrims who are stricken are in a very critical condition
