Wasutnoton, Oct. 2-1. —.Many and startling ns have been tbechangea which have taken place in the situation with reference to the repeal bill since that measure was introduced in the senate, there has never before been a day which witnessed so many as the one which closed with Senator Faulkner's motion for a recess At 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The day started in with the announcement that the compromise was "off." Many were inclined to doubt the announcement that the administration had set its seal of disapproval upon the compromise, but a very little inquiry was neeessarv to satisfy them of the correctness of t.iis stateu: .‘tit. Then came the talk on the pari, of some senators of adjournment as the Is remedy for the situation and that was s<siu met with the assertion that closure would be the proper thin/ on the programme. Speedily were t he =e announcements followed with the rumor that the silver men were willing to su. render unc ouhtionally and allow the re] si bill to be passed without

further opposition. IliltniiH Tithes -a Matitl.

Lastly came the deliuite announcements that there would l*e no effort today at cloture and that the silver men had reoripunz-d and wwe premired to

S«*iiHte ProceedingM Noticeable For Frequent i'riviite Cowfereneeii. Wasihnuton, Oct. 24.—Thi“ session of the senate was remarkable for the lack of interest displayed in and the apparent dullness which characterized the proceedings. Frequent conferences constituted the noticeable feature on the Democratic side of the chamber and at one time Vice President Stevensofi took a seat on that side and engaged in what was obviously an earnest consultation with Senators Voorhees and Faulkner. The time yesterday was occupied by three of the leading advocates of silver coinage, Messrs. Jones and Stewart (Nev.) anil Teller (Col.), and but little attention was paid to either.

Washington, Oct. 24.—The debate on the bankruptcy bill liegan in the house. There is a great deal of determined o]>]s>sitiou to the measure, led by some of the ablest lawyers in the house, like Culberson of Texas, Stone of Pennsylvania anil Boatner of Louisiana. It is directed generally against the policy of national bankruptcy laws, in view of jiast experience, and particularly at the involuntary clause at this time, when so many busipess firms in close straits might under its operation 1m* forced to the wall.

Senator David B. lid' was the cause of all this, and the crowd in the galleries grew impatient waiting tor him and applauded any and every commotion in the rear of the stage. It was announced as a grand Democratic ratification meeting. Senator Hill opened with a short allusion to the op) m meats of Democracy and their principles, saying it was the same common enemy with whom his party has been contending for so many years. Tariff Legislation. The senator spoke of the work of the ways and means committee in tariff revisions. and said the country was on the eve of the realization of Democratic promises. “Whiledisclaiming," he continued, "all authority to s]M*ak as to the details of the proposed measure, we may nevertheless safely anticipate some of Ls general features.

Washington, < let. 34.—It is believed now that Stone's story regarding the murder of the Wratten family, implicating six men liesides himself, is a lie from beginning to end, hut he undoubtedly is one of the principals in the heinous crime and made his confession in order to pave the way toward saving his own neck. No one believes that Stone was rolled on the bloody fiiM>r by the others in order to make his guilt apparent, hut that he was covered with blood while taking an active hand in the butchery. Oscar Brown, who was arrested a short time since as one of the murderers, was released from the state prison, as Stone's confession did not implicate him in any way. Mrs. Stone has been brought to this city for safe keeping and to insure her up]H'urauce at the trial. Excitement prevails on account of the confession. Relatives and friends protest the innocence of some of the | men implicated in the statement ot James E. Stone. The list of the iieensed include (irandison Coshy, Lon Williams, William Kayes, Martin Yarber, John White and Gibson Clark. All of them are, or have been, neighbors of tin* Wratten family, living in the same township. Never in the history of the county was public feeling wrought up so high. Two of the alleged murderers are nephews of old Mrs. Wratten. They lielong to families of high standing and are accountel among the ls*st in the county. Martin Yarber, one of the parties under arrest, tells a story which corrolMirates many points in James E. Stone's confess on. All of them have been removed to Jeffersonville.
