U, Dec, 11th. j ' Senator Allen exploded bomb that - ihook the' Senate from center to circum ference when he moved that the Dingley bill be taken up, and the motion was car ried by a vote of 85 to 21.. The vote in favor of the motion was made up of 23 - Republicans, 8 Democrats,, 6" Populists and Senator Pettigrew who is now classed a an independent; and the vote against U of 8 Republicans, 18 Democrats and t independent, Cannon,Dubois and Mantle. . Senator Allen said he made ' the motion without consultation with anybody and solely tojshow that the Populist Sena tors were not standing in the way oi : revenue legislation. In reply to questions from Benator Aldrlch Mr, Allen Bnid that while he would not vote for the Dingley bill as it passed the House, it could easil be put in a shape that would get bis vote and that of other Senators who are ' not Republicans, but he didn't mention what that shape was. The Dingley bill was be fore the Senate less than 80 minutes, when the expiration of the "morning- hour" 1 sent it back to the calendar, Mr. Allen having failed to get unanimous consent for it to be the "unfinished business" ol the next day. It can bo taken np -at any time by a majority vote, but as the bill It now, owing to the action of the Senate at the last session, a bill for the fret coinage of silver instead of a revenue bill, its passage in that shape would bt merely duplicating the work of the last session.. - - , - Several Cuban resolutions providing foi recognition of independence, have been 'offered in both House and Senate, but ' Senator Mills, of Texas, is entitled to the . belt, and it ought to be a blood-red one, . for having pnt the hottest stuff Into a resolution that the oldest Capitol habitue remembers. His resolution directs the - President to take immediate and forcible . possession of Cuba, and to protect the ' Cubans until such time as they Bhall or gnniee a government of their own. A facetious Senator has already suggested that Senator Mills be the commander of the army of occupation. Mr. George E. Kelson, who took the trouble to travel all the way from Indian - Territory to Washington, with no belter j claim for a seat in the House as Territo- rial Delegate than a certificate of flec tion signed by an Indian Agent and bis own statement that be received 200 out of about 800 votes in an election held ' November 8d at several villages of the : Territory, finds that members of the ' House not only fail to recognize the lv- - gality of bis claim, but are also inclined to poke fun at him. Senator Kyle, of South Dakota, pro fesses astonishment at the stories that tlx canvasslngaboaxd of that State was about " to throw out, on account of alleged - fraud at the election, enough votes to , give the State, and possibly the Legisla ture, to the Republicans. lie said: 'Every one out there thought the dec tion was conducted in the fairest kind ol away. I did not hear It challenged on an? side. I scarcely think the board would attempt to throw out enougl ' members of the Legislature to turn it over to the Republicans. It would be highhanded outrage If it did, and would cause an uprising in South Dako ta. -1 can do nothing but watch the course of events, but our men are on the . ground ail the time, and will bitterly con. test any scheme to defraud us of out rights." Republicans are not talking for publication about this matter, but enough was said at their caucus of Senators to i Indicate that some of them expected Republican to succeed Senator Kyle, whose term expires on the 8d of next : March. - " ' ' Comptroller Eckels has plan which lie says in hlsjannual report he Is certain - would go far towards curing our . flnan . cial ills. The foundation of bis plans Is to decrease the tax on National bank circu lation and encourage the formation of banks of 123,000 capital In junall towns and vlllages'and to allow them to issue - currency to the face of the bonds thoy have deposited with the U. 8. Treasury. Neither Senators nor Representatives - Iiave beea falling over each other in their efforts to get the plan of Mr. Eckels be fore Congress, and there Isn't the slight est likelihood of their dolnc so. .The House, as usual, is. ahead of thi Senate in the matter of doing business. It has passed the regular Tension appro priation bill and a number of minor meas ures. V , . The bolting silver Republican Senators were playing for bigger stakes than the forgiveness of their old party associates ' when they Ignored the invitations sent them to attend the Republican caucus. Tlmy figure it that by maintaining an imii pondent altitude they can dictate . legislation In the next Senate, unless the Republicans happen to get a majority, and demand control of the Federal pat ronage of their States as well.

Tha loss of the Sailer is another of the series of disasters that have attended the fortunes of the North German Lloyd Steamship Company. It calls to mind the frightful loss of life that occurred early, in the morning of January 80, 1895, when the steamer Elbe, belonging to that company was run into on the North Sea and sank by .the British steamship Craythie. Of the 873 passen gers on board the Elbe all were lost ex eept 22, most of whom were members oi tbe crew. Telearrapkle Items.

The Cuban delegation has received a communication from llong Kong, from the Cuban agent there, who has been in communication with the revolutionary committee in the Philippines. It is as follows: "If things continue as they are in the Archipelago, the Philippines will be free before Cuba. From most reliable sources it is learned that only tbe province of Novelets is wholly in the hands of tbe Spaniards. For the rest of the island, the province of Cavide is in the hands of the insurgents, while in the province of Manilla the patriots are strong. In the province ot liulacan the revolution is making beadway. The Islanders are making a most suc cessful fight for freedom throughout the whole country. The Spanish forces have been obliged to scatter in order to occupy many points at once, and are therefore unable to operate in large forces. Tbe revolution is daily increasing, not only in the extent of territory occupied by the patriots, but in numbers and equipment. "It is sad to compare the efficient aid that has been given to the revolutionist in the Philippines by the Japanese, and the hostility that, I am told, is exercised in the shipment of arms from the United States to Cuba. 'The Spaniards will probably initiate war of extermination, confiscating property on mere, suspicion so as to be able to carry on the war. Gen. Blanco has left the Islands in disgust, as he dis- igrees with the despicable policy of the 4pauish Government." Heuor Quesada said that he did not credit the news of Maceo's death, as the dispatches bore all the marks of fabrica tion by the Spanish. But," said he, "tho world must un- lerstand that even if Maceo be dead the revolution is yet alive." root KB A. COU IS ONE DAT.

December 11 jLVERFool declined today,5-04 for futures and the spot market was easier with light sales. New York opened at yesterday's closing prices and declined to 7.03 for January. The close Is 7.08, a net loss of 2 points for the day. Latino aside the question of what values may be later on, it is quite probable that the declining tendency is checked for the time, and it would be only nat ural to see some recovery from these low prices.
