A LITTLE TILT OVER SILVER. Senators Sherman and Teller Handy Words Tlugl ltl Anper. Washington. May 27. Only a very brief discussion was had on the silver bill in the Senate to-day. Mr. Sherman, who wished to take the floor in opposition to the bill, stated that he was not ready to go on now, as he had not yet received tho information he had asked lor from the Treasury. The silver men manifested a disposition to press a vote as speedily os possible, but agreed that the bill be informally laid aaido till Tuesday. This was done after Mr. Stewart had amended tho bill by striking out the appropriation so as to avoid the danger (in the event of its passing the Senate) of its being remitted to tbe House calendar. During the debate to-day Mr. Stewart snjreeeted that there should bo unanimous consent Riven to take the bill up from day to day until it was concluded, but an objection to that proposal was tnauo by Mr. Sherman on the ground that there was a very sparse attendance of Senators, and that no such arrangement could me made. "Then." said Mr. Stewart, we had better go on and vote to-day." "I do not care," said Mr. Sherman: "I certainly will not speak to-day; after the way tbe bill was taken up, it would be just in keeping if the vote were taken now." "That gratuitous thrust lrom the Senator from Ohio," said Mr. Teller, with some asperity, "is entirely uncalled for." "The proposition itself was entirely uncalled for," was Mr. Sherman's no less angry retort. "That is another question," eatd Mr. Toller. "The pettifogging of the Senator from Ohio hardly beCts the occasion. Nobody has pretended that wo want to cut oft dobate, if the .Senator from Ohio wants to debate the bill, nobody on our side proposes to cut o!t debate. We are willing to do what is always done in tho Senate; that is. when any Senator says he wishes to debate a subject, to give him time and opportunity. The snpgrstion that we tako the vote now was made upon tho theory that nobody wanted to debate tho bill." Mr. Sherman 1 have said that several Senators desire to speak upon it, and that I desire to do so. Hut. I do not wish to speak to-day; because I am in search of m- i formation which I expect to get by Tuesday. THnre is no ground for the remark that nobody desired to speak. 1 have said that several Senators do. The Senator from Kansas desires to speak, and he is not prepared now. The Presiding Officer Do I understand tho Senator from Ohio to move to postpone the biiir Mr. Sherman Yes, till Tuesday, at 2 o'clock. Mr. Stewart ollered two amendments to the bill, and they wero agreed to. They were to mako tho denomination of certificates, as provided in third section, from $1 uptoSl.OcO. and to strike out the clause carrying an appropriation. The presiding oilicer said that the bill would be considered as still in committee of the whole, and asked whether there was unanimous cousent that it be laid aside. Mr. Sherman said that that was not necesanry as the bill would come up as "uutinished business." "Yes." said Mr. Allison, "if no other bill betaken up in tho meantime and take its place as the unfinished business." In view of the possibility that such a thing might happen Mr. Stewart asked and obtained unanimous consent that the bill be taken up as the mitini.ihed business on Tuesday next, at 2 o'clock. That matter having been definitely arranged there was a brief executive session aud then the Senate adjourned nntil Tuesdav next Among the bills passed to-day was one to re-cla9siiy and prescribe thesnlariesof railway postal clerks. The rates tixed are: First class, not exceeding S00; second class, not exceeding $1,010; third class, not exceeding $ 1.200; fourth claos. not exceeding Sl.WJU; tilth class, not exoecding $1,500; sixth clas. not exceeding 1.000, and seventh class, not excoeding Sl.bOO. The Free Coinage Convention. Washington. May 27. At 10:15 this morning Chairman Warner called the silver convention to order. Short adarosses were made by Mr. Shinn. of J?ansas, and Mr. K. K. Thomas, of Pennsylvania. The latter said that ten years ago his farm was generally regarded by his neighbors as worth 810.0OO, and since that time he had been even more successful than othors in his neighborhood, aud had been able, by close attention to business and economy, to save about 5C0 a year. This was the result of the labor of every member of his lamily. But while ho had been able to save 500 per year, bis farm ,had, however, depreciated in value even more, and the farm that ten years ago was worth $10,000 in cash could not bo sold to-day fur more than $3,000. This shrinkage ho attributed solely to "our pernicious financial system." which was being oporated in the interest of money-lenders, corporations and monopolies. The speaker denounced both of the leading political parties, aud atd that rather than vote for Grover Cleveland, who seemed to be the logical candidate of his partj with his free-trade idea, he would vote for Queen Victoria for President of the United States, and, rather than vote tho ticket ot the hypocritical, weak-kueed Republican party, he would vote for Cleveland. K. I. Stark, of Ohio, read a long paper upon tho general subject of silver, in which he expressed himself as having no confidence in the proposed international menvtarv conference. Mottou Froweu, the well-known freecoinago writer of England, was introduced to the convention. Personally, be said, he would prefer to see the free coinage of silver brought about by an international agreement, vet he had no doubt that America could restore silver to its old place without the least danger of sending uold to a premium, and, in that event, lie did not believe that any silver of consequence would come from Europe to be exchanged lor gold; tho much-heard-of argument against free coinage that the ocean grey-hounds would bo loaded with European silver was the inereit nonsense. He did not behove that the shipments of silver from the old world would cut the least tigure in our money markets. Ho believed it to be perfectly praticnblo for this country logo to free coinage to-morrow, if she so desired, without the least danger to any of her interetits. Mr. Frewt-n spoke oi the proponed international conference and hoped that this government would iusit upon that conference being held in London, lie thought the English language should be the language of the conference. During the last twenty years binietsllism hod len gaining friends in England, nntil it is one of the greatest of living iHSUfS. and has among its arntst friends at least n- hundred members of Parliament and a ry great portion ui tho member of the London Lxchungr. A silver wave wus sweeping over Eiitflsind. and the general cause would bt? greatly advanced by holding in her capital this international conference. At the evening ses"ion of tho convention the committee on resolutions reported after declaring iu favor of free coinage. Tho resolutions say: That we will cot support fr a legislative or executive othce any candidate who Is not thoroughly committed by platform and declaration to the full restoration of the monetary system, violently disturbed by the legislation demonetizing tilver in 1873. That while we would hail with joy tho co-operation of other nattous In ihe rcKtorutlou ot silver to Its proper monetary ioilr!n, yet wo demand that the United States right tho wrong It has ierie.trated upon the producing and industrial clashes, without regard to the action of other nations. lo.tlble Monetary ConfVrrre.

Washington. May 27. Tho sundry civil bill was finally passed to-day. Mr. Forney's amendment, requiring 'the retention of nil pension money in excess of S3 Per month received by inmates of soldiers' homes to the support thereof, was rejected. The appropriation of C2.OC0 for tho Philadelphia mint building was retained in tho bill. The IIouso then proceeded with tbe consideration of the postotare appropriation Dill. The motion of Mr. Hatch to take up the anti-option bill was defeated by a tie vote 108 to 10?. This action, however, is by no means vital in its elVect on the bill, as tho meaiuro merely retains its plnce on the calendar subject to another motion of like portent by Mr. Hatch at some subsequent date. Whenever tho House proceeds to the consideration of revenue bills the nnti-op-tion bill w ill be the first one taken up, aud as it is tho intention ot the ways and means committeo to call up other tariif measures during the present session, there is little douht the bill will finally have its day. On motion of Sir. Cockran. of New York, a joint resolution was passed to correct a olerical error in tho MeKiuley tar ill' act. It corrects an error whereby a duty of from 15 to 53 cents a pound is imposed on sweetened chocolate, and fixes the duty at 2 cents a bound. On motion of Mr. Springer, of Illinois, who appeared in the House this morning apparently fully restored to health, a Senato bill was passed to establish a bridge across the Illinois river at Havana. HI. After one hoar's debate on tho postoffice appropriation bill the House took a recess till o'clock. At tbe night session pension matters were disenssed, aud without action ou any bill tho House, at 10 o'clock, adjourned. 3IINOK MATTERS.

Are you prepared to say that Mr. Blame would accept if he received just 451 votes?'' "Well, really, I did not ask Mr. Blaine that question; but 1 do not think he would accept under those conditions." Considerable interest was manifested in the arrival of Hon. . J. 5. Clarkson, who was expected to reach this city on the congressional limited with nows of importance from Washington. Ex-Senator Piatt went to the Plaza Hotel to meet him, but learned there that he would not arrive until after midnight Secretary H'aine, who was expected to arrive in Washington to-night, did not leave tho city. Ho remained in his rooms at tho Fifth-avenue Hotel all evening,and had as a caller Mr. Piatt, who remained with him some time. After his visit to the Secretary Mr. Piatt said: "I understand that Mr. iilaine will leave for Washington to-morrow afternoon. Thero is no significance in his going. All roports about abandoning his intention of going to liar Harbor are untrue, as he never had the faintes idea of going there in the first place." INDUCED TO WITIIDltAW TI1EM. Fort Wayne Republicans Decide Not to Denounce the Course of tho Journal, fpecisl to tb Indlannpolia Journal. Fort Wayne. Ind., May 27. A special meeting of the Blaine Club of this city was held to-night'for tho purpose of making arrangements for an excursion of its members to Minneapolis to attend tbe national convention. The meeting was fairly weil attended. Capt. J. I. White was in the chair. Reports from various committees were received. The committee appointed to secure rates for a special train was not ready to report.as Mr. R. T. McDonald is out of the city. There is very little doubt, however, that a special train carrying tho Blame Club will be run. Communications from Portland. Warsaw, Ligonier and Crawfordsvillo were read. Those correspondents desired to accompany tbe club on its trip to Minneapolis. The question of taking a special train will be eettled at another meeting to-morrow or next Tuesday. Just before adjourning, A. Lorenzo, a traveling man. threw a bombshell into the club by ottering the following resolutions: Whereas, The Indianapolis Journal has taken the liberty to dictate to the majority of our party In this and other states as to whom our comlug national convention, soon to be held at Minneapolis, Minn., phould nominate tor President, aiul.it'not being contented with Its dictation sand bosni&rn. it attempts in every way possilblo to carry out the policy of --rulo or ruin," for none other hut sellish ends, and is constantly aiding our enemy, tho Deniocratio party, to disrupt aixt disharmonize our rank; therefore, be it Resolved, That we, the members of the Blaine Club, au uncompromising Republican organization of Fort Way no. do censure and condemn the actions of the Indianapolis Journal as unbecoming a paper classing itself as a true and loyal Republican orcau. and not being worthy the standing which it claims for itself as being tho organ of our party in our State. When tbe members had regained their composure II. C. Hart man moved that the resolutions bo referred to a committee; othft members thought it would be impolitic to pass them at this time, and finally Mr. Lorenzo was induced to withdraw the resolutions. Hill Iu the Fight to Stay. i Washington, May 7. The congressional friends of Senator Hill express great annoyance at the repeated statements . that the New York delegation to the Democratic national convention contemplates abandoning Senator Hill after a ballot or two and casting tbe votes for some other candidato. Hon. W. Iiourke Cookran strongly resents the insinuation that the Tammany delegates are not loyal to Senator Hill, and ho, as well as General Slocum, asserts that Hill is in tbe light to tbe finish, and that not one of the eeventy-two delegates will abandon him. and that if the New York candidate is to be defeated he will go down with the eeventy-two votes of tbe Empire State loyal to him to tbe last.

CAN DO NO MOIiE. The President rrlies to a Memorial from Colored People Concerning Outrages. Washington'. May 27. The Virginia Baptist convention (colored) met here on May 11, and through a committee, headed by Rev. II. II. Mitchell, presented President Harrison a memorial requesting him to lay before Congress, in a special message, tbe subject of crimes against citizenship, against law, against humanity, aeainst God, which are o common in certain parts of this land and to do all he can for their suppression. To this memorial the President replied in part as follows: I have endeavored In my speeches and public papers to hold up the law as the uiui Pintle ndmissable rulo or conduct for Rood citizens. I bare oiicaled against race discrimination, and lor civil rUhts. I have asked that law-abiding men should unlto to discourage and suppress lawlessness.

You will not need to oe assured tbat tbe Department of Justice will let no case pass tbat is one of federal Jurisdiction without tbe most strenuous ettorts to punisb tho guilty. You may be assured tbat my voice and help will be given to every effort to arouse the conscience ot our people, and to stimulate erncient efiorts to re-establish the supremacy ot the courts and pnbilo officers, the only proper ngency lor the detection and punishment of crime aud tbe only security oX those who are falsely acoueed. NO ELECTION THIS TEAK. The British Pttrllameut Sot Likely to Dissolve Till 189: Silver and Fair Trade. fCcp jrlght. 18P2. by the New York Aisocatod Press. London, May 27. A Cabinet council was convened to-day for the special purpose of determining tbe date for the dissolution of Parliament. It was attended by ali the Ministers except Right Hon. Edward Stanhopo. Secretary of State for War, who is recruiting his health at Aix-lei-Bains. It is understood that Mr. Balfour demanded of his colleagues time to complete bis scheme of legislation, even though it be necessary to adjourn at tbe end of J uly and to hold a winter session. This decision will enrage the opposition, who, without delay, will resort to every device to obstrnct government business; but it will be approved by the majority of the Unionists, though it will embarrass many who relied upon dissolution in June as inevitable. If the Conservatives' anticipations taking form to-night be fulfilled no Gladstone government will bo potsible nntil tbe end of the spring of 1S03. and no home rule until 194, while Mr. Balfour's local government measures, having a clear year to operate, must complicate Mr. Gladstone's task in creating a new Irish administration. Secretary Foster's formal programme for discussion at the international monetary conference, if received by Mr. Goscben, has not yet been commnnitated to his colleagues. A reliable authority tells tbe press representative hero that Mr. Goscnen's acceptanco of Secretary Foster's invitation has met with adverse comment from some of the Cabinet members, notably Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, who is of the opinion that Mr. Goschen ought to have refused to accept, aud ought even now to withdraw his acceptance if tbe basis framed by Secretary Foster commits England to anything. The ministerial opponents of the conference think tbat Mr. Goschen too easily surrendered to Secretary Foster's arguments, and hope that certain inlluences now being used 'with the European governments will prevent their sending delegates. High financial houses in London. Berlin and Vienna oppose the conference. In spite of theso and other undercurrents, however, the treasury hero takes the conference as a settled fact The programme which has been prepared for tbe congress of the chambers of commerce of the empire, wnich will open on June 23, shows considerable progress in the protectionist movement, The Chamber of Commerce of Lcitb propcss an International monetary union, with aunitlcation of tbo etirreucy of the empire. Sir John Lubbock. M. 1.. will preside at the congress. From present indications this gathering will be the greatest fair-trade demonstration ever held in England. Although the programme is ostensibly batted on the Erinciples of the Imperial Federation .eagut). the revival of protection is the pervading spirit. The Italian Cblut nelgn. IloMF, May 27. Sianor Giolitti, the new Prime Minister, announced to tho Chamber of Deputies to-day tbat tho members of the Cabinet had tendered their resignations to King Humbert, but that his Majesty bad refused to accept them. He therefore asked the Chamber to pass the most urgent bills now before it. and to grant tbe government a voto on account for the next six mouths. Tho Prime Minister's announcement caused a great sensation in tho House. It is generally taKen to portend that tbe dissolution of the House is imminent. There is no doubt tbat tbe resignation of the ministers was precipitated by the vote takn yesterday on the question of confidence in the Ministry. Tho result was a victory for tbe Ministry, but the martin was so clcto that had ten of the thirty-eiaht who abstained from voting cast their votes against tho government the Ministry would bavo sustained a defeat. 1 he new Cabinet was only definitely formed on May W and its practical overthrow has therefore been a matter of only a few days.
