The house com mittee on rules, or rather the democratic members of that committee, have decided that Wednesday and "the next legislative dav," shall be devoted to the consider ation of the free coinage bill. Filibuster, ing bills will not lie in order, and an op portunity will therefore be olfered at the very outset to test the relative strength of the friends and opponents of the silver lull bv voting upon a resolution which piovidcs for its consideration by the house. A majority vote against there's olution, it is openly stated, will be ac cepted bv advocates of tree coinage as an absolute detent ol the measure for tlii session, but they express confidence that the adverse majority cannot be mustered i n a i,!i':tiou of consideration. The leading republicans still decline to stale what position thev will takcat the beginning ' 1 the contest, but there is talk ol adopting a middle course, by al lowing the democrats to make the light ;. nong themselves, and then, when Luc combat slackens, come in as a re serve to the support ol the anti-silver faction. It is asserted that there will be a ninjoiity of from lour to eight against the bill upon a direct vote, il it can be brought to one bv means of clo ture I or "majo! ity suspension" I rule; but the silver men scout at this assertion, and declare that the bill will go through the house if it reaches a direct vote upon its merits. If the measure succeeds in gelling be fore the senate, and its oppoi.cnts fili buster against a I mil vote, the commit tee on rules will be asked to report a cloture rule, but as all members of the committee except the republicans, who would see in it a justification d the rules of the lilly-hrst congress, are opposed to this method ol procecdurc unless asked bv a majority id the total democratic mi mUrsliip ol tlie House, uiav be met with refusal. such rapicst 'ceovile uml ch:uijip. haniii rs si.H Hi: $20,000.
