SATISFACTION EXPRESSED. The Action on t he Teller Resolution PlcaBe the Administration.. New York, Feb. l-A Tribune dispatch from Washington eavs: I The satWactloo of the president and his advisers over the action of congress! on the Teller resolution Is unmlstakeably reflected in the reply of Secretary Long j to the correspondent of the Tribune who i arked whether It was not probable thai the resolution would materially affect the i congressional elections next fall. I "It eeems." said Secretary Long, "us ' the Lord or their own tolly has delivered ; the democrats Into our hands. Had they j kept still, the usual reaction .which takes place after a presidential election and j the certainty that the new tariff had not put a gold spoon In every mouth, might have given Chent the pext houee of rep-i resentutives. But they have Introduced ' and passel by their majority In the senate a resolution practically favoring a depre ciated currency and the free coinage of sliver. This resolution was carried In the senate by a democrntio vote. It was car ried there by tho votes of those states which went for Bryan In the last presl- dentlnl election.. In the house. In which j there Is a republican majority of 50, It wa overwhelmed by practically a solid i republican vote. The result Is that we; ehall go to the country next fall In the congressional elections upon a square Is-, sue between a sound currency and a de-! predated one. i "The signs all are that under the now 1 tariff the revenues are Increasing so that ; they will exceed tho expenditures; that! our Induntrles are reviving; and that , everyone of thetn which haa been pro tected by rhe new tariff Is enlarging Its output and paving the way to nn Increase of wages, the only exception being that of the cotton Industry, In nearly all of the schedules relating to which no change ; was made. j "Yet even at this prospect an to ourj Increased revenues and improving tndus-1 trie, the chance for republican success j has been tremendously enhanced by this new phase of the currency Issue."
