Henderson hud refrained at tho outset from making his motion regarding tho appropriation for a temporary homo for cx-ldicrs and sailor. Micro wero Votes behind that, Ho nked why liuiner had not moved to strike nut the appropriation for tho Women's Christian association. I the W. C. T. V. Boctarlan? Ituln.-r repli ed that tho questions illus trated tho en liber and the highwater mark of tho gintleman from Mississippi. Tho temper of tho houso was only in favor of striking out appropriations for sectarian institution. "Why did yon not movo to strike out the appropriation for tho Woman' Chris tian association? " asked Williams, "llecouso It Is not sectarian." "It is sectarian," ruplivd Williams, "no Jew nor Catholic can becomo a member of It." This closed tho debuto for the day. f KOTUINU 1IVT rBEK COINAGE, Oa!y Measnre the Senate Finance Com nillte Is Determined I'pon. WasmsuTos, Fib. 5.

Some estimates placo the number as high as 1,C03 or l.tjttJL As to the amount of the bids or the rate3 offered nothing is known, as the origicM envelopes In which they were received till remain unopened in one of the treas ury vaults. A number of well-known bankers who are supposed to bo interested ia the loan arc in town and others are expected to arrive today.
