SENATOR VILAS SPEECH IN DEFENCE OF PRESIDENT CLEVELAND, v Tha Free Stiver Coinage Bill Under Con taw-ation ooarerenee - Beport en tan : Diplomntlo and Consular Appropriation Bill Agreed' to-Other Appropriation ; Bills Considered In tbe House. . . " '-.-.'By Telegraph to the Moraine Star., ; - Washington, Feb. 1 9. Senator Vi las ' made a lpngt able ' and eloquent speech in the Senate to-day in defence of the President of the United States, and his Secretary of the Treasury in the matter of tbe sale of $62,000,000 of four per cent, bonds for ' gold. The speech was made on the bill -before the Senate for iree coinage pf silver, but had no ref erence whatever to that bill. Mr. Vilas showed that tbe President had endeav ored to get Congress to act upon the i nancial difficulties in which ' the Treas ury bad found itself by tbe drainage of goia ana tnat as tongress bad declined to act, he bad to avail himself of tbe power which ; tbe existing ; laws gave mm anq to buy gold by tbe issue of bonds. The price - obtained lor the bonds, Mr. Vilas contended, was the highest that could be obtained under the circumstances; or, in other words, ajfc per cent, was tbe lowest rate of in terest at which tbe bonds would be taken by tbe great banking "houses which had been ipplicd to. Three and five-eighths per cent; "had been offered in all tbe great money centres and had been refused, and all because the bonds did not provide specifically repayment tne says SPOTS AND FUTURES The. New York Sun's Barlow of Cotton Market. By Telegraph to tbe Morning Star. New York. Feb. 19. The Sum Cotton advanced two to for points, but weakened at one time.

Now it is 24,000 bales more than i then. There is a rumor of possible: short time in New England. The Texas State i. report, dated February 14, says that the I ground is in a favorble condition lor i ploughing and planting crops of ail kinds.

Tbe receipts at the ports to-day were.14 606. against 84 428 this day last week and 17 659 last yean thus far this week 35.658. against 75.911 for the same time last week. The total for the week is estimated at 90.000, against 141 009 last week and 82.627 last year. I New Orleans receipts to-moi row "are esti mated at 5 000 to 7.000 bales, against 14.569 last Wednesday and 6.975 last year. i - i ! To-day s featu'er. The light receipts at the ports and the unexpectedly! firm Liverpool advices pushed up tbe prices a iitle in spite of some weakness in Liverpool later on and selling here by New Orleans. New Orleans was vol uble in bull talk, but sent sailing orders just th$ same, and .the mat bet down there was not so firm as in New "York by any means. Tbe receipts there to morrow are expected to be compara tively light, however, and the total for all ports this week is now expected to be 60.000 bales less than that of last week. So prices advanced, though many dropped March and took later positions, and there were larger offerings of spot cotton by the South, to say nothing of the expectation of larger receipts at the ports and the in terior towns when the roads improves. Still jhere are those who believe in the old maxim: "They laugh best, I who laugh last." They belive that the evils of the present system will bring their own remedy. And this remedy will be. they think, a reduced consumption cf fleeces and a diminished acreage. In fact tne prevalent idea is that a rise just now must be from the very nature of the eas. temporary, inasmuch as it is believed that there is a large quantity of cotton to come forward which cold weather and bad roads cannot destroy, though they retard the work of transportation. There are some plucfty bulfs however, wbo are full of fight and are only biding their time. They seem to be acting on the maxim that "patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet."

After Mr. ! Vilas speech Mr. Piatt made a speech against the free silver bill tself. ; ,i An effort was made by Mr, Jones to have a time fixed for taking the final vote on' the bill, but as its antagonist re- lus d to fix any time the debate went on, and Mr. Piatt is at this hour, 7 p. m engaged in arguing against the bill. Another proposition to have tbe vote taken to-morrow was made by Mr. Jones and objected to by Mr. Alrch who said when tbe bill wes first introduced by MrJ Jones it contained nine sections, includ ing one for the issue of $500 000,000 in bonds and one .for tbe retirement of greenbacks,' and bethought that the Senate was entitled to an explanation as as to why those eight sections had been abandoned. As all attempts to have an hour fixed, for taking tbe vote met with objection, Mr. Piatt went on with his speech. He gave it as his belief, in which he knew many of his Republican associates would not agree with bim. that -the vice of the whole financial situation in the country lay in the pa per currucy issued by the Government. There was an unusually large attend ance of Senators this morning, probably in view of the expected contest overihs Free Silver Coinage! bill, and the galle ries were also well filled with interested spectators. The routine morning busi siness, however, consumed the first half hour with matters of little public con cern. . A conference report on the Diplo- piomauc ana consular Appropriation bill was presented and agreed to. All the differences between tbe two Houses on that bill have been arranged except as to tbe appropriation of 500 000 to oegin tne construction of tbe cable to Hawaii, on which the conferees were un able to agree. A further conference was ordered on that item. Tbe Senate passed a bill to aid in the erection of a monument to the Maryland heroes of the Revolutionary war. It appropriates S40.000 to be expended by me maryiana society ot the American Revolution, to aid In erecting in Balti more a suitable (monument to the memory of the patriots who died in eatablisbing the independence of the united btates. j Tne credentials (of Mr. Wilson, the new senator irom tbe State oi Washing ton, were presented and he was sworn in. thus completing the loll Senate mem oersnip to 87. Mr. Jones, of Arkansas, then moved to take up tbe regular order, bis free coinage bill, and it was agreed to 38 to si. x nea the tug pf war was on. Tbe bill was read in full. In the opening Kirmisn, KX. Jones said, the friends oi uis Din. were wining to put tbe matter to a test now witnoat a word of debate. i. was apparent, aowver. that no vote conia oe taken at Once nor at any time that could be dtfijutely stated, so Mr. Jones said he had jenly to request that tbe debate would proceed as rapidly as possioie, ana tnat tne vote must be had at tbe earliest possible hour. He would. iQcreiore, ass tne senate to remain in session to-day until a vote was got if mat couia oe accomplished. ine general debate was opened -by an. v nas, toe tenor oi bis remarks be ing given above.

Naval Appropriation ; bill without disposing of it.: The- proceed ings were : marked by several spirited passages between Mr Savers; Chairman cf tbe Committee on Appropriations and members of tbe Committee on - Naval Affairs over amendments offered by tbe former to reduce tbe amounts carried in the bilL Only in two of these was the Texas member successful, and then the amounts were insignificant.' At tbe be ginning bt the 'consideration oi the bill Chairafaa i O'Neill 'Democrat, Massa chusetts) - overruled the poiat of order made yesterday by M r. payers against, the proposed increase of the force ol en listed men in the Navy, holding that it was in order, notwithstanding existing statutes limiting - the number to 9.000 men. From tbis ruling Mr., Savers ao- pealed, but the Committee of tbe Whole sustained the Chair 143 4 to 87. And against this Mr. Sayers uttered bis earn est protest. -In the course oi the day several other important matters were acted upon by the ; Houee. The j jint resolntion re ported yesterday by tbe Committee on ways and Means, directing the Secre tary of the Treasury . to suspend tbe shipment in bond: through tbe United States , of goods destined for the free zone of Mexico, was passed. a conierence was agreed to on the Agricultural Appropriation bilL The report of tbe conference upon the joint resolution extending from March 1 to April 15, 1895, the time within income tax returns may be made, was agreed to i ne statement ot the conferees was as follows : rlhe efiea of the action on the first amendment of the Senate is to allow the owner of real estate to deduct the amount necessarily paid for fire in surance irom the income from the same, when making his return. It applies only to real estate, It does not en tame in other respects tbe amount of deductions that may be made. Under tbe income tax law 'deduction mieht be made for necessary repairs, 'but not for, better ments. This provision remains and is not enlarged by the amendments agreed upon.. "Tbe effect of the second amendment is to require corporations to return the tax list ot corporate property and relieve the; individual of the necessity of doing so. It is , agreed to . by the conferees to prevent the possibility of double . taxation,. , Whilst t the j law guardedagainstthis.it was thought not: improper to add: any. additional- assur ance tbereot that was necessary. The amendment added bv the conferees to tbe second amendment frees employers from tbe necessity for returning the names and salaries of their- employes except when called for by, tbe collector to verify the returns of employes. For the purpose the right will still exist. From the third amendment (limiting interrogatories tax-pavers shall be re quired to answer to those specifically" provided in the act) , the Senate con ferees recede. This was. thought best not only for the Government but for tbe tax-payers.' - r "- Tbe House at 5.10 adj 3arned until to : WASHINGTON NEW&S PropoMlsT&soelved mt the JTarr vui- J aent fox.
