GLOT‘URE ,IN THE SENATE Some Democrats Would Help Change the Rules to Clear the Way for a Monetary Bill Which .They \Vould Not Directly Favor. Washington, Nov. 10.-—Notwithstan-§; ing theapparentimpossibility‘that ‘any financial legislation should get through Congress, some of the best informed Democrats and silver men insist in private that there‘will be a. determined fight CVer the question; and that the outcome is uncertain. They exhibit considerable alarm and declare that there is no doubt that desperate ex- pedients will be adopted to get through the Senate the measure that will be passed by the House on the rec-cm— mendation of the President. Tiey say that the fight will 'start inthe Senate on a proposition to adopt cldture, al- most as soon as Congress meets, and that there are some Senators who will vote to amend the Senate rules who could not justify themselves before their constituents if they voted direct- ly to pass a currency—reform measure. Yet, if cloture is adopted, they believe I that it may be possible to pass a cur- - rency measure which would be disas- trous to the silver party. I .The Republicans say nothing of such a plan, and on the surface it does not seem possible of accomplishment, but there is no doubt that those who op- pose currency legislation are extreme- ly anxious, and are preparing for a desperate struggle, which they say may last throughout the entire session. I The Republicans have forty-three Senators, and [there being a vacancy, forty—five is a. majority. The Demo- and there are twelve Pouplists and inde— pendents. Two Democrats, Lindsay and Gray, are likely to vote for a re- form of the currency, if they have an opportunity, though they probably would not dare vote for cloture. If they did, it would pass the monetary bill. Now, if some of those who would vote for a currency measure should vote for cloture, it would open the way for those who would vote for currency reform. It is not certain how Senator J. P. Jones or Senator Kyle would vote on the cloture proposition, but it is thought likely that Kyle would vote for it, and it is not improbable that 7 Senator Jones would do the same. It is impossible to get Republican authority for an assertion that this plan is in contemplation,.but there is no question about the Democrats be- lieving it and being anxious about it. THE SEALING CONFERENCE. It \Vill Commence To-Morrow and \Vill Be on u. Broad Scope. Washington, Nov. 10.—Gen., Foster and Sir Julian Pauncefort conferred yesterday as to the arrangements for the meeting of British, Canadian and American representatives relative to‘ Behring Sea. A general understanding was reached that the arrival of Sir VJilfrcd Laurier, the Canadian Pre— mier, and party, would permit the meeting to open to—morrow, as to-day is likely to be given to an exchange of views between the Canadians and Brit- ish. The- British Ambassador accom- panied the Premier to the White House this morning and introduced him to the President. This was a call of courtesy, however, and it was-not - expected that any of the pending ques- tions would be referred to. The'British 'Embassy has extended"an invitation to Sir Wilfrid to be a. guest during his stay here, but he has determined to re- main with the other Canadian repre- sentatives at the Shoreham,. where 'quarters have been engaged. ' It is now definitely settled that the coming meeting will take a. much broader scope than was first antici- pated. At the outset there will be a comparison of notes, between the seal experts, Mr. Hamlin for the United States, Prof. Thompson for‘ Great Britain, and Prof. Macoun for Canada. The Canadian Premier and Sir Louis Foster will be present in an unofficial capacity, ready to take up the larger experts have concluded‘their exchange of technical information. WILL use CHINESE As MINERs. in Announcement Which Canned In- tense Excitement in Illinois. Streator, 111;, Nov. 10.—-The an- nouncement that Chinamen would be placed in the mines of the Northern Il- linois coal field has caused an immense excitement here, and a callvhas been issuedfor a. full convention'of the dis- trict to be held this afternoon in this city. Every shaft will send delegates, and in the'meantime the various or- ganizations will get together and take action. ‘ It, is understood that to-‘day’s meet— ing will be of tremendous importance to the craft throughout the State, as it Is claimed that if Chinamen are allow- ed to go to work here and elsewhere it will only be a. matter.of time when mines employing that kind of labor will be able to undersell those employ- ing skilled hands and thus the price will be forced down. The situation here is looked upon by business men as most serious. ' has put an entirely new ”phase upon it. It means to Streator alone the dis- placement .of about three thousand men.

SENATOR FORAKER TALKS. His Position as to the Ohio Senatorial Situation. . Washington, Nov. 10.——Senator Fora- ker arrived here yesterday afternoon from Cincinnati. He said he thought most of the disturbance over the Ohio Senatorship was in. the Democratic papers. He continued: “I, do not know a thing about a. fight over the Senatorship, except as I see statements to that effect in the news- papers. I have not talked with Gov.‘ Bushnell or any of the members-elect of the General Assembly, directly or States know what is contemplated. ~ "All I have said to' any one is that, so‘ far as I am concerned, the campaign ended on election day. So long as it was a fight against Democrats, I spared neither time nor strength. If there should be a. contest among Re— publicans, I shall,not.have anything to do with it, if allowed to act according to my preferences.” ‘ Senator Foraker expects to go to New York to—night or to-morrow. - Crank at the White-House. Washington, Nov. 10.—Another crank was arrested at the White House yes- terday. He is about 28 or 30 years old, and called at the mansion early, say- ing he wanted to go to the fourth floor. He asked“ to be shown to the elevator.‘ When told that there was no fourth floor, he made a bolt for the interior. of the house, saying that the President had invited him to breakfast. He also said that the President had wronged him, and that he intended to right him-_ self. It was then decided to arrest the man, but he ran away. He ‘was finally found hidden among the greenhouses on the White House grounds, and arrested and taken to the station house- ' More Appointments.
