BALFOUR ON BIMETALLISM. Dm bimetallists will probably be eneourby the speech of Mr. Balfour, tne ider in the House of Commons, who last pronounced in favor of the standard. They should bear in however, that what Mr. Balfour ans ie international bimetallism, and the only way to make that effective is he United States to stop buying silvsr and stop trying to go it alone.—[New York
Host
Mr. Balfonr, who speaks for the leading bimetallists and truthfully represents their position, insists that bimetallism must be International, and that no single State acting alone can force the metals to circulate together at a purity. In other words, the experiment which the United States have made ia and muat continue to be a failure Bales* European power* can be induced to Join with thie Government in establishing free^<min^ge for both the metals.—[New For come time paat Mr. Balfour has advocated bimetallism, not as a step toward a depreciated currency or inflation, but as a help to iuteroatioual commerce. It was doubtleae through hia influence that the Saliabury government was led to send a representative to the Brussels monetary conference. Only by an international agreement, it was wisely held, could the use of silver as a legal-tender money metal for larae amounts be reintroduced.—[Balti-
more San.
While Mr. Balfour, the English Tory leader, is not prepared to commit his party or himself to bimetallism, be evidently thinks, with the Populist leaden of the countrir, that by skillful management a great deal of party capital may be made oat of it. It is worthy of note that the genuine advocates of bimetallism abroad and here at home shrink trout suggesting any basis for the free coinage of gold and silver. They propose to leave the ratio to the future consideration of an international conference. But they are all agreed that no nation by its own power can maintain the free

Surely tha present is an inopportune time to engage in a bimetallic propaganda. Every step taken by any important government for the last twenty years—save our own queer wanderings—has been away from bimetallism, and the last and most difficult to retrace has been taken by die British government in India. The chief obstacle to the acceptance of the bimetallic notion by any government or group of government! is the opinion of a large body of influential men that the value of silver relative to gold is determined by forces over which no government or group of governments has any but a very partial and insufficient control, and that the operation of these forces can not be foreseen or countertoted.

HOT BOX FOR CONGRESS.
THE CAPITOL IS UNCOMFORTABLE IN WARM WEATHER. •
The Senate Chamber mod the Hall of the, Howae of Repreeentativee Are Shat Out From the World and the Breeaee.
Washington, August 7.—The calling of an extra session of Congress in August will work a great hardship to the members of the two Houses who had planned to spend tha hot weather at .the seaside or in tbs mountains. It may not ba much ’of a sacrifice fora Congressman from Mississippi to apend the heated term in Washington, but it is going to be a great strain on the men who are accustomed to spend (hour summers at Newport and Bar Harbor and the other cool seaside resorts of the North. The Senate chamber and the Hall of the House of Represent*tires are about tha moat uncomfortable places in Washingtun on a hot day. Hie other parte of the capital are comparatively cool. There ie anally a fine breeze playing over the west terrace, and the galleries which overlook it are always thronged with idle clerks on the warm days when Congress is not in session. Some of the committee, rooms, too, are very cool when the wind ia from the right quarter. I sat in Senator Pugh’s committee room on a hot day recently, and I think that it must have been at least ten degrees nearer comfort than any room down town. The capitol ia set on a bill and right on the edge of that hill, too. If there Is any breeze floating about, the eapitol gets it There is not one day in all the summer time when there is not a good draught playing through the press gallery on the Houje side.
itol one day when the thermometer on the terrace registered 88°. Engineer Jones had taken the record of temperature in the Henate chamber and it was registered as 79°. It is kept at that altitude by running the current of air over steam coils. The air fta the Senate chamber is changed once In every fifteen minutes, winter and summer. kitchen akrangemknts. '' There are eight fans in the basement of the Senate wing of the eapitol. One of them, five feet in diameter, supplies air to the committee-room in the capital terrace. One email fan is used to draw the odor* of the kitchen through a flue, and two of the same size draw the air from the bases of the elevator shafts so that the odors of the engine-room can not rise and spread through the building. In addition to these, two large fans are need to exhaust the air from the Senate chamber and the old com-mittee-rooms. The House of Representative* has abont the same equipment, but the hall of the House ia much larger than the Senate chamber, and the number of peonie gathered there is four times as great. The doors of the galleries and the doors leading to tlie floor of the Hones are fastened back in warm weather so that the sound of the orator’s voice is heard through all the corridors of the capital; while the slipshod foot of the rummer tourist, scraping along the tiled hails leading to the galleries, breaks in constantly upon debates. And still the House is warm almost to snffocatioo. ; , The members of the Senate never forget their dignity altogether. Senator Wolcott, of Colorado, may wear “sporty” shirts and silk sashes, bat he always wears a coat. Most of the Senators get down to alpaca and pongee, but the members of the House believe in preserving their comfort rather than their dignity, and it is not an nncommon sight on a warm day for two or three of them to sit around in their shirt sleeves. The summer shirt and the silk sash have a strong hold on the affections of the members of the House. Tom Reed, of Maine, Set the fashion when he was Speaker, and gave the

"" ll.l. ■ I II I ! . . Rut Congress docs not meet in the gellaries overlooking the terrace or in the committee rooms or in the House press gallery. It meets in two stuffy boxes, carefully screened from any draught of air from doors or windows. Both the Senate chamber and the Honse are built exactly in the center of the wings of the Capitol. Thick walls surround them and beyond these walls are other walls, and beyond them are passages and more walls and then committee rooms, and finally the outer wails of the Capital. The object of the designer of the Capitol wings was to shut Congress off from the noise of the streets or anything that might interfere with its deliberation*. He succeeded so

. - COOLED BY FANS. ‘
The restaurants where the members of the House and Senate take their luncheon are cooled by electric fans. So an many of the committee rooms. The Senate and the House hare bugs steam fans to furnish a supply of cool air to them, and the air is carried over enormous blocks of ice before it naches the places when they meet. Each Senator and member has his little private ventilator under his desk. It takes forty thousand cubic feet of air a minute to keep the Senate chamber fresh and wholesome, and five thousand pounds of ice a day to keep that air reasonably cool. In addition to the ice which furnishes coolness, then ia a spray of water which supplies moisture to the eurnnt of fresh air. With the aid of water and of ice and of the two big fans, revolving at a rate of spefd that makes them seem like still, gray discs, the engineer of the Senate is able to keep the temperature of the Senate chamber nine degrees below that of the air outside, provided the day is not too warm. But it happens frequently on a very warm day that the causes which go to make the Senate chamber warm run away from the engineer and hia stream of iced-air, and that the temperature of the chamber become* for a time un-
endurable.

IN THE BATH-BOOMS.
Thers Is one refuge supplied by a bountiful Government to the members of Congrats —the bath-rooms. Thera are nine bathrooms on the House side not far from the ventilating apparatus in the basement. Each bath is a little cabinet by itself, opening from a room whose presiding genius is a colored man. Boms o£ the tubs are of marble ; the old ones are 6f painted Iren. Each one of ^sm is about three times tbe sise of an ordinary bath tub. Some ornaments are bung in each of these baths and on tbs walls of the passage. Baths can bo had at any temperature, and some hotblooded members have lumps of ice .pat in the tubs before they get in On a hot day. There is a Russian steam bath adjoining the tub rooms. It is furnished wjth a Wooden bench and the walls are oovorsd with steam pipe. After a member has got a good steaming he cools off by degrees by plunging into tubs of graduated temperature, it takes abont an nour to get a Russian steam both. They are not in great demand this hot
weather.
The bathing privilege is not confined to members of Congress strictly, although on Saturdays only members are allowed tp bathe. On any other day in the week member may gm a bath ticket to a frie and when tbe members are not using t tubs, the employes of the House are permitted to use them. The same rules prevail on the Senate side. It is said that more than one member of the House and
