WASHINGTON, March —TLIC island bill for the free coinage of silver is (lead, fur this session of eonyress at least, and can nut. eoine up until next December. Mr. Itland, who clnnpr to the Inst to the hope of galvanizing the bill into life, admitted late Monday afternoon with reluctance that liic bill was dead for this session. Many influenees combined to brin about this result.
The Speaker's Action.
Speaker Crisp announced Monday that he would not call a meeting of the committee
011
rules to consider a o-
lution to tlx an hour for a Until vote
011
the free-coinage bill, and would not vote for such a measure in the committee itself unless he were petitioned to do so by a majority of the democrats in the house. The anounccinent was a great surprise to Mr. itland. lie had hurried conferences with l'ieree, Iiartine, Uryan and other silver men, and it was finally decided to try to satisfy the speaker by securing a petition for the cloture rule signed by halt the denio-i-rats. J'ryun took one of these petition?..'l'ieree took another and in all half"a dozen petitions were circulated.
Itcvolt in the Hunk^
The Indiana democrats won tlie tirst to decline lo havo anything to do with tho petitions, although there had heretofore been silver men in the Indiana ranks Virginia was the w_\t to go back on the silver petition, every man in the delegation except Epes declining to sign. Thus delegation after delegation said no, and the silver men found they were beaten. They gave up the job in disgust when, at 5 p. in., it was found thai the best they were able to secure was a total of 31 names out of i28f» democrats in the house. For majority there were needed US. llluml lll.wne«i Crisp. "Thursday night. or rather early
Friday morning, when I moved that the house adjourn," said Mr. Tiland to a correspondent, ''it was with a distinct understandintr that a cloture resolution would be brought in. And that understanding was had with the speaker himself by myself. Of course 1. was surprised when learned that the agreement was not to lie carried out" "Do you think that the bill is dead?" "For a time." "1 low would it be possible to get it through the house this session?'' "There is no possible way of doing so wtt.li the speaker against us. The bill is dead us far as this congress is concerned. It has been killed by the speaker and his friends. 1 do not careto discuss the probable effect that the death of the bill will have upon the political future of the democratic party."
Spt'ttUvr Crisp Kxplnins,
Speaker Crisp defined the situation to be simply this: If a majority of the democrats in the house desire the committee on rules to make a report, which will enable the. house to come to a direct vote MI the silver bill and if they signify that desire the committee will make a report. If they do not so signify the committee will understand that the majority do not desire It, and the responsibility will rest with the majority of the democrats of tho house and not with the committee oil rules. As to Mr. island's reference to the speaker's opposition to silver or his duplicity the speaker said he lu:d nothing to say except to recall that by his casting vote he had himself prevented the bill from being tabled and to state that, as a representative from (ieorgia, he favors and will vole, for Ihc free coinage of silver.
Would Not Apply Cloture.
1
To show that he was in favor of the free coinage of silver tho speaker recalled the fact that he had appointed a committee which favored tlie measure and had appointed Mr. Itland at the head of that committee, notwithstanding Mr. Itland had been a very active opponent of Mr. Crisp in the speakership contest. Although in favor of free coinage, the speaker stated that as speaker of the house, he would endeavor to execute the will of the majority of the democrats therein respecting reports from the committee ou rules, and no criticism by Mr. lli.ind
or effort by Mr.
lilaml to shift the responsibility would deter him from pursuing this course. Mr. Crisp said that when the niles were being considered he had ill caucus pledged his party that no rule should be reported prohibiting filibustering or culling off dilatory motions except «t the request and desire of a majority of the democratic members of congress.

WASHINGTON March uMi.^rhe llehr-? ing* sea war clouds have rolled by and tlie outlook is once more peaceful. Salisbury's conciliatory note has done it. .The president sent to the senate Monday afternoon the. reply received from the BritUh premier and also his answer to it.
President linn-Won Pleased. he president's answer expressed the atilieation the administration felt 111:il Ureat Kritain was willing, after the ratification of the treaty, to ugre« to an arrangement similar to that of last year. lie was not aide lo concur entirely as to the conditional or eonsctjuental damages laid down by Lord Salisbury, but he had no doubt that the points of difference on this point could be settled satisfactorily. The intimation was clear that the executive felt that the senate could now safely ratify the treaty independentof any proviso regarding the modus vivendi. Jf,it desires to pass a declaratory resolution showing the sentiment of the senate regarding the measures for preserving the seals pending arbitration that may be done independently of the treaty.
TnlUed Over the Mutter.
The senate spent three hours in executive session talking on the subject, but did not come to a direct vide on ratilication. This, however, was because so many senators wanted to discuss the matter and not from any opposition to the treaty. Tnere is little doubt that a vote wilt be reached and the treaty ratified to-day. The senate discussion went pretty deeply into the whole question of damages. Sherman. Morgan. ilc«rge, 15ate ami other southern senators did most of the talking.
Slitirtfiictory to Most Senator*. The prevailing opinion among the senators was that Lord Salisbury's reply is satisfactory. It shows a great advance over his former communications. Some of the features of the reply are still tho.ight too indefinite, yet in its main proposition* it comes nearer to conceding the demands of the United States than any thing that has heretofore come from the IhitLsh foreign otfice.

After the first three there were apparent signs of 1 if 1 •. Kaeli shock was for twelve seconds. The scene was most revolting and the execution is described as the most horrible yet
In I lie? Dciil li Clniir.
Cot to spent most of tliu tiuie in prayer, and seemed to derive much comfort from the words of Father De Santis. who j-peul the night, with him.
The witnesses and ten reporters entered the death chamber at 10::,.ri Coito was brought in between two priests. Uevs. Father Milo and De Santis. of Hrooklyn. Warden Itrown walked in front of Cot to. Coito was repeating the prayers in Italian after Father De Santis. Cotto was very weak and appeared to be ready to collapse, lie was quickly placed in the chair and was strapped down by two keeper!.. The two priestgot down on their knees and continued to prav. i'otto repealing tin- prayer after them.
Turned on the Current.
The electrode was applied to the right leg. When the straps had been adjusted Warden Brown gave the signal, the switch bar was thrown and the current shot, through the form in tlie chair. The priests were still praying in a loud voice, but the straps across Cotto's face partly bound his lips and he could only mumble the responses The sound of his voice was cut off sharply as the current passed through him and his body strained at the straps, liis face Hushed purple and froth came from his lips. The current WHS turned off in thirty-two seconds.
He Still l.ivt
Cotto slowl}* opened his eyes and looked at Father Milo with what seemed a reproachful expression. He seemed protesting mutely against the treatment he was receiving. His hand* moved and there was no doubt in the minds of the witnesses that he was not only alive, but conscious. The signal was given again by Warden Brown and once more the body stiffened up and strained at the straps. Tho current was kept on about twelve seconds, when it was turned off a second time and ('otto's body settled down in the chair limp and at lirst. apparently lifeless. The doctors stepped forward to listen to the heart and feel the pulse, but before they readied the body tin fingers moved and Warden Brown again gave iho signal.
The Third Shoet.
Kor the third time the current shot through the body, and the rigidity oi muscles and the straining at the strap* was repeated. When the current was turned off this time Pr. Irving applied the stethoscope to the heart and Pr. Abbett, who had been keeping the official time, felt the pulse. They shook their heads and stepped back. The fingers began to move again and there was plenty of evidence that Cotto was still alive.
Finished tlie Horrible .Jot).
For the fourth time the warden'gave the signal ami for the fourth time the current was turned on. It was not turned off until the face of the man had turned a purplish Mack and the exposed part of the right leg was ol the same color. This time the current completed its work, for when it. was turned off the phys'cians found no signs of life.
Pr. Irving, in answer to a question of the reporter a,« to the indications ol life after the third shock, said: "Yes, there were faint indications of life when I listened at the man's heart ami felt of his pulse."
Cotto's body Was not claimed by hib relative*. It will be buried in quick lime.
The Crime.
