THE SILVER DOLLAR.
Washington, I). C, Nov. 6 A signal
triumph for tbe people was achieved in
the suooess of Mr. Bland's motion to
suspend the rules and pass the bill re.
storing the old silver dollars of 412,'
grains, making it a legal'tender for all
dues, public and private, and allowing
all persons to have silver bullion coined
at the mints on the same terms that
gold Is oolned. Reagan very lnjudlolous
ly tried to ring In an amendment
which, if accepted by Bland, might have
endangered the bill, but this amend
ment was refused. .Filibustering tao-
tios were then employed by the crea
tures of Wall street, but to no avail,
and a square vote was had on the bill
The first lew responses on the roll-call
shewed bow the tide was running, and,
ere tbe oall was hall over, auocesa for
the eause of the people was fully as
sured. The South and West stood
nearly solid for the bill, and they were
re-anforoed by California, Texas and
part of Pennsylvania. The nays were
only 84, and so the bill was passed.
REPEAL OF RESUMPTION.
On the subject of the bill to repeal the
third seotiou of the Resumption Aot,

tangle, a happy deliverauoe was effect,
ed, and a resolution adopted which In

measure by the House, and a vote for It
probably in a week.
THE PACIFIC RAILROAD.
The action of tbe Committee on the
Pacific Railroad is delayed by Mr. Ran
dall's chairman, Clarkson N. Potter,
who has resigned his position, but asked
that the acceptance of it be deferred.
Meanwhile Governor Throckmorton oan
not oa-ll the Committee together, and
nothing oan be done towards re
porting a bill, The ingenious devioe of
appointing a ohalrraan to hold back and
stifle the sentiments of a majority ot the
Committee is working as it was in
tended to work by the gentlemen who
set up the job.
Prospect of the Silver Bill.
National Associated Press to the Star.
Washington, Nor. 6. It is generally

Have We a Nobleman in This Cits?
Cuuo, with the additional uame xi
Ereiherr Von Trolna, who claims to be
descendant of that proud European
family, tbe Von Trotuas, that rose lata
prominence in that oouutry in the thir

met tbe above-named gentleman (who.
by Ihe way. is also a newspaper man) of
the Grand Hotel, and it lot expounuing
several questions to hiin (Cuno), which
the latter refused to answer, came to tasy
conclusion, as also did several Uerinad
repoiters, that the Cincinnati noblemen
was a fraud.
It seems that Cuno, from a report ac
the Interview, refused to answer the
questions asked of him. He alleged
tuat ue nan oecn an omuer in one in
Companies of Hussars in 1871. The eons.
pany was composed or aoout twonty-nve
or thirty men, the names ot which
Claus had in his bands. Cuno was un
able to ackowledge any of them as his
companiou in arms.
Cuno was also unable to give an oot
llne of the esoutoheon of the family, and
thereupon was iguominiously expeileA
from the mee.iug.
Claus alleges that Ouno's objjoot 1
bearing bis lamily name was solely doae
to secure an annuity that that family
had been paying to US descendants.
Cuno last evening engaged a detective
to investigate the matter, and made aa
uppointinent with him at the Grand
Hotel this morning at 10 o'clook.
The uiau who did not o me was oar
Cuno, aud then the detective threw up

"The members of the Bar, Irr commo
with the community at large, have heart
wltb deep regret and sorrow of tue death
of Oliver P. Morton, who bas, during tb

in the puoiic unairs ot his country. As
Governor of the Siate of Indian, dur
ing ihe olvil war, and as one of the
representatives of that State

which leave upon tbe public mind a pro

more brilliunl and memorable quality of

and of his patriotism, and its sense of

larger loss to his country.
