Silver Clause Repeal

BY OVERWHELMING MAJORITY
All the Free Coinage AisciuIibcuIo
Voted Down.
CLEVELAND DEMOCRACY TIUDMPIIANT
Iu tho Lower House The Bill
Now Goes to tho Senate.
Tho Opening Hour.
Washington, Aug. 28. The galler
ies of the house were crowded long be
fore the time for assembling, by per
sons interested iu tbe result of the bal
loting on the silver question, after two
week's debate. When the speaker
rapped for order at noon, nearly every
seat In tbe hall was filled.
While waiting for the speaker to call
to order, Bland freely admitted tbe
claims of tbe anti-silver men of a ma
jority of fifty well founded aud might
be exceeded.
Weaver, of New York, appeared at
the bar of the house, and was sworn
iu. Then the clerk reported a resolu
tion containing tbe order of procedure
on tbe silver question, providing for a
vote first on the free coinage of silver at
a ration of 16 to 1.
Votes on Free Coinage.
Washington, Aug. 28. Bland's
proposition in amendment to tbe Will-
son bill, 16 to 1 Free Coinage was de
feated by 123 to 225.
The proposition of Free Coinage 17 to
1 amendment was defeated 100 to 240.
Tbe 18 to 1 amendment was rejected
by 102 to 239.
Tbe other amendments by Bland
were voted down aa follews: 10 to 1 re
jected by 105 to 237; 20 to 1 amendment
rejected by 119 to 222.
On tbe amendment for 10 to lr one
hundred Democrats, thirteen Republi
cans, and eleven Populists voted yea.
Among tbe Republicans were Bweet of
Idaho, Doollttle aud WUson, of Wash
ington. Ellis and Herman, of Oregon,
voted with tbo nays against tbe amend
ment. REPEAL PASSES.
After all tbe Blaud free coinage
amendments were voted down there
peal to the clause of the Bherman law
requiring the government to purchase
four aud a half ounces of sliver each
month, was passed by a vote of 238 to
110.
The Wilson Bill.
Wabhinqbon, Aug, 2S.Tben the
Wilson bill, repealing the silver pur
chase clause of tbe Bherman act. was
read aud Blaud offered his first amend
ment far free coinage at tbe ratio of 10
to 1, which was defeated by 123 to 220,
amid great applause from tbe autl-all-
ver men, who did not expect bo large a
majority.
PKOSPEOT IN THE SENATE.
Immediately after the passage of the
Wilson bill it will be reported to the
senate and If the usual course Is pursued
it will be referred to the committee ou
finance of that body. It U expected
tbe policy of tbe senate will be to let It

the upper.chamber are directed to so
curing tbo-adoption of tbe repealing
bill now pending Iu that body. The
reason for tbis is that the repealing bill
reported by tho senate committee on fi
nanco Is believed to be be superior to
tbe hoiiBO bill, because it coptalns a
declaration originated by Beuator Hill
pledging the government to the policy
of bimetallism. It Is quite certain no
bill can pass the senate without a dec
laration indorsing tho polloy of bimet
allism, and if no declaration is explicit
ly made In the Wilson bill, the pro
gram w ill be to pass tbe sonate bill and
send it to the bouse for concurrence.
Of course the effect of this will bo to re
vive tbe whole question In the house,
but It is not thought any considerable
time will be consumed by the bouse in
patslng upon, tho question second time.
Conatderabte speculation Is being in-
dulged in a' to tbo next step to be
takon in financial legislation after the
passage of the bill repealing the Bher
man law. The committee on coinage,
under the leadership of Chairman
Bland, will, it is expected, roport a free
coinage bill in due time and Chairman
Springer's committee on banking and
currency is expeeted to preaout several
relief measures to tbe house. Congress
man McCreary of Kentucky, one of
tbe delegates on thq part of the United
States to the recent international mone
tary conference at Brussels, has pro
pared a Joint resolution for introduction
in the house next week. The resolu
tion provides .for the appointment of a
commission of three senators, an equal
number of representatives, with three
experts to be selected by the president,
who shall inquire into tbe whole finan
cial question In its broadest phases, not
as to blmetallsm alone but also as to
tbe reorganization of tbe banking sys
tem. Means of promoting international
blmetallsm will also be a subject for tbe
commission to consider. It Is provided
that tbe report of tbe commission shall
be presented to the teuate and house
not later than January 1, 1804.
Analysis of Vote.
. Washington, Aug. 28. The nay
I
vote composed one hundred and eight
Republicans aud one hundred and
eighteen Democrats. Great surprise at
majority against free coinage, it being
nearly double the largest estimate made
by tbe untl-sllver committee. Bland,
from his seat at the extreme left of the
speaker, smiled grimly as he- heard
result of vote on quotation of free coin
age at ratio of 17 to 1, resulted, yeas
100; nays 240. Ou this vote besides lose'
of Populist voles wero several negative
yotes from those who voted in favor of
ratio 10 to 1.
Blight gains made on higher ratios
not unexpected by some of (he leaders,
was the Impression that a ratio of 90 to
1 wjuld poll the largest vote recorded
in favor of free coinage. Result of tbe
call, yeas 117, nays 222.
Rejected Senators.
Wasiiinoton, Aug. 28. Tbe senate
by vote of 32 to 29 declared Leo Mantle
and J. B. Alien, uot entitled to a seat.

Interesting Gathering of Bayers, Fac
tors and Moseyed Men.
Thicker than flies Ubout a sugar bar
rel tbe bop buyers clustered amuud
tbo office and lobbies of Hotel Willam

the Paclfio Hop King, had arrived on
Saturday night ou the overland tralm
Ezra Meeker of Puyallup, owns sev
eral hundred aores of hops, one of fifty
acres adjoining the city of Seattle, with
sidewalks around it. Hois a man who
has credit for a million In his own
name, has shiploads of hop supplies,
like bagging and quassia chips con
signed direct to him from India, and
bandies half tbe bop crop of western
Oregon and Washington. He make
an annual visit to tbe Willamette val
ley and meets his agents and establlBben
his depots for distributing funds. The
way money is looked up this year tblt
is very important. The fact that the
Meekers have $350,000 la gold Juet from
England makes his visit most Interest
ing to Salem bankers, hop buyers and
growers. An office Is to be -established
at Balem at oaee. '
T. D. Linton of Eugene, who has rep
resented Meeker in Lane county for
several years, is in the city. He is one
of tbe leading hop buyers la the state,
raising 100 acres, handling thousands
of bales annually, aad with twenty
years experience, be Is well posted in
tbe business.
W. A. Templeton, a son-in-law, ac
compaluied Mr. Meeker, Br. He will
remain at Balem und will oonduot a
branch house with All the powers oi
the main firm. This will be a great
gain to Salem asa-bop center and of
much value to producers.
At one o'clook over fifty grower
met In tbe Willamette reading rooms
to hear Mr.Meeker'a remarks and prop
ositions. He proved to be a pleasant
Hpeakor aqd expressed his gratitude ai
being met by so fine a representation
of tbe producers. He stated that al
though producers of all kinds were so
badly off this year, owing to the finan
cial conditions, he considered that the
hop growers were best off of all. Hl
bouse proposed to open an offleelB'Sa
lem to handle the crop hereabouts.
Utated that be was not a speculator,
but that be simply bought and sold on
a margin. He stated that he had been
able to secure money to supply grower
for picking, and could advance about
11 cents per pound. He said he had
filled all orders received up to date at
17 to 18 cents, but knew nothing notb
tng as to future prices.
Mr, Meeker will advance $30 per bale
on goed hops, and will after Oct. 1st
offer for tbe same tbn market price
every 15 days, and If same are not sold
by Nov. 15 he will tell at market price.
charging usual commission and lnttr-
est for money advanced. On this ha
uls be Is propared to advance to the
growers from 1200,000 to 81,200,000.
This proposition will give tbe grower
an opportunity to speculate on bis crop
fur 00 days if he wishes.
He advised all growers that for tbe
Euglleh market hops should be allowed
to ripen fully, and should be baled not
to keep out all possible moisture. The
speaker requested any present to ask
questions, and urged a discussion of all
points.
He thought well cured hops slightly
broken were worth more than whole
bops not so well cured.
Were hope thoroughly ripe, slightly
red as valuable aa those not quite ripe
when picked? Yes. What Is the beet
size for a bale ? Not over I80 pounds.
Smaller still would be belter, except In
tbe matter of transportation.
Three samples will Le required this
year, one for tbs Salem office, one for
Puyallup and another to submit to the
London buyers. It requires only 15
days to hear from a sample sent to Lon
don, Samples should be taken oaly
from tbe pressed bales. In England
bops are all Judged by the cut edge.
Tbe speaker said ne uees 100 pounds of
crude sulphur to tbe ton of hops. Bah!
It added nothing to tbe value of tbe
bop except In appearance, aad acted as
a preservative. Crude sulphur was the
best beeause tbe cheapest. Mr. Meek
er never wets bops wbWe drying.
