situation From the House Foreign At.
fairs Committee.
Wasniaerox. Jan. 31.-Aiter brief eon-
Ilderntion of routine business the senate
again wok up the allvor bond bill, and
Mr. Call (Dean) of Florida motioned his
speech begun the previous day. Hr.
Mitchell (Home! Oregon followed in a
npceoh in support of the silver substitute.
Mr. Perkins illep.) of California spoke
briefly, also in support of the silver
amendment. llo said thathe and other
senators favoring the tomato had been
unused in the metropolitan press of min—
representing their constituents. for, it was
asserted, California was in favor of tho
gold stamiard. Mr. Perkins controrertcd
this llfirlurtliin. The last Republican plat-
form of California had a plank declaring
for thofreo and unlimited coinage of I‘ll.
vor. Resolutions were passed by the (tale
iforoia legislature instructing tho wuators
from that state to‘support the free and
unlimited coin-go of silver. ‘
The people of California had loads up
their minds on this subject. and knowing
this universal {cycling in his state the son-
ator said he would mist his vote for the
aliver amendment, even though lilripcf-
corral views inclined to a more conservao
tivo course.
‘An Animated Debate.
A very animated debate over the quite.
lion of taking the veto on the pending sil-
vor bond blli cioeml the session. It had
been expected throughout the day that
Mr. .ion'eu of Arkansas, in charge of the
measure, would hold the senate in session .
until uvote was forced. . He had given
notice of this purpose. and the senators
were prepared for it. But when hlr. Vilns
secured the floor for a speech he yielded
for a motion to go into executive mansion,
Mr. Jones explaining that it. wnstpropoecd
to take a recess until today. He. felt satis-
llod, he said. that a role could be taken in
the near future. This led to much discue
slop.
Mr. Chandler was sarcastic at the aban-
donment of the plan for a vote.
Mr. Stowartdeclarwl that it made no
difl'oreuco when a vote was taken or
whether any was taken. It was all dross
parade and bunt-ombo. He added the sig~
niflcant statement that. tho pcndiug sliver
arnondinei‘ would be germane as an
ainondmen to tho tarlil' bill, and that
when the latter measure cnum before the
iiiiliiltl he would oil'vr a silver :uucmlun-nt
to test the senators on tliclrcimico between
tariff and silver.
After a lengthy discussion the sonata
went into executive session and then took
a recess until trula)’ without any exact nu.
dorstanding as in the vote, although the
talk had shown a purpose to secure arrow

The Embassador Bayard Incident.
No decision in the matter of censoring
Embassador Bayard was attained by the
house committee on foreign affairs, but
the discussion upon the quostimi, which
absorbed/an cntiro hour, was one of the
most interesting which that committee
had indulged in for a long timc. The
members were practically opposed along
party lines, the Republicans urgingarcso-
lbtion of censure and the Democrats stand-
ing by the embassador. Tho subcommit-
tee. consisting of Messrs. Drnpcrof Massa-
chusetts, Pearson of North Unmliun and
Dinsmore of Arkansas, which had been
charged with the settlement of the matter,
reported that it had been unable to agree
upon the formof a resolution.
It laid before the full committee five
drafts of resolutions which had been out»
mitted by members of the committee. ,
There was a wide range of difference be
tween these resolutions. The most radical
of them denounced in strong terms the
Edinburgh and Boston speechesand called
upon the president to recall the anthem
tier. The most mild, on the other hand,
