2 GREENBACKS, GOLD AND SILVER. Another Day of Debate on the Carreney Bill. Cockran Conspicuous in His Oppo litiou.' Sharp and Bxcltlns; Parries Between Ihe Debate™— Why Oat*hina ; e fkftri Carlisle's Flan. By The Herald's Leased Wirev. Washington, Jan. 6. —Another day in the house was consumed t y debate over the Carlisle currency plan, in which Representative Cookran of New York was the most conspicuous figure. Mr. Cockran held the floor for more than an hour, and spoke with bis accustomed vigor and eloquence, provoking many questions from the opposition and hold ing the attention of the members and the galleries throughout He opposed the bill and deolared himself in favor of the Baltimore plan. Mr. Lacey, Republican of lowa, also spoke in opposition, while Mr. Boatner, Democrat of Louisiana, and Mr. Catch inns, Democrat of Mississippi, exhorted the party to nnite in support of the aaeasure. In the course of Boutner's speech Biaind .put several questions to show that the administration bad adopted a gold policy, and finally declared that its financial policy was a fraud. Boatner asked if Bland bad not been a supporter •f President Cleveland in tbe last cam paign, whereupon Bland responded that he had supported the platform and bad - voted Jor tbe candidates, and the party had gone down in ignominious defeat for its treachery and frand. Pence brought np Secretary Carlisle's advooaoy of silver while a member of the boose in supporting Mathews' resolution, and asked if soon after ac ' eeptinc tie treasury portfolio ha bad not announced his intention of paying setae of tbe government obligations in silver and had not been ''called down. Boatner replied that it was useless to revive free silver as a factor of the cur rency question. Blsnd retorted: "You can't ran the Democratic party on Republican lines, and no mugwump can change its polley." Boatner eontinnsd that it was the mistake of tha century when the ad ministration failed to pay obligations in silver aa well as gold. "We should ao longer keep ourselves on exhibition," Boatner ooncluded, "aa enable to agree on a single msaeure that promisee relief to tbe people." FOLIBOIL ROCKS AHEAD. I.acey, Repablioan, of lowa, followed ia opposition to the bill. There was the usual filling of aeata when Cockran rote in tha first aisle of tha Democratic side. He daplored tbe tendency to treat the ateaenre as a party one, which was likely to wreck it on the rocks of political ex pediency. The vote of confidence in the Democratic pasty in 1892 bad been re verted, he said, aad ha did not think tbe constitutional provision which allowed the party to retain power until March was granted for passing party acts. An egitataon wlthent results which would ruffle restored business tranquillity had better be dropped. If this house suc ceeds in establishing a monetary system based on human reason and experience of expertsjitsliast daya will not be without profit or devoid of honor. There were, in hie opinion, questions on which leg islators eoald divide along party lines with advantage, bat this was not one of them. He aaid there were many ques tions on which mankind had differed from the beginning of civilization, and the questions connected with the finances and political economy were among those over which there had been much dispute. Nevertheless, he continued, the laws controlling these questions were immntable, and to obey tbem was to bring blessings, the ignore them, tbe reverse. We can, he de. alared, no more affect the economic laws by onr legislation than we can by the same means affect the>lawe govern ing the nations. THE CRIME OF 'SEVENTY THREE. He asked that the question now at is sue ba considered on tbe basis of econ omic laws. He thought he saw evi dence that the judgment of tbe genera tion has been warned by the eu-perabun dance of talk on the "crime of 187;! when silver was demonetized, which had in volved the use of a host of employes and much mystery, but had been brought but very little practical good to tbe peo ple generally. The tendenoy to treat political economy as a mysterious science has enabled men to pcse as statesmen who, if they talked common ■ sense, would have been discovered, bnt were able to confuse the peo ple by shouting platitudinous nonsense. Ancient astrology was no more absurd than tbe double standard, but when we reflected that this genera tion bad allowed its daily affaire to be affected by the nonsense of impostere, our charity toward the ancients broad ened and our sympathy was touohed by tbe sight of our own people listening to men who said that tbe payment of wages in a bad dollar was better than in a good dollar, and that taxation was the handmaid of prosperity. PROSPERITY CANNOT BE FORGED. When Mr. Oockran alluded sarcastic ally to the free silver fight of Messrs. Bland and Gray, and what he termed tbe change ol attitude of Mr. Boatner, who wae about to retire to the calmer field! of jurisprudence, Mr. Bland inter rupted with a question regarding Mr. Cockran'a prediction that the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act wonld revjtore prosperity, and Mr. Cockran challenged him to prodnde a word of bis to tbat effect. "I am not one," Mr. Cockran resumed, "who pretends that prosperity can be forged iii this chamber or by tbe law of tbe land. I believe all tbe law and gos pel on the subject of political economy wae revealed to tbe first man when a just God told him tbat 'By the sweat of hie brow he must earn his bread.' "Prosperity wae in tbe earth and charlatans who said they had it in their clothes or their brains andwho bad onred the country for 25 years, it was my chief object to oppeae." Taking up tbe bank ing and currency bill, he spoke briefly of the claims of the committee that it would promote the ends of trade. He claimed that instead of promoting it would prevent, forbid and obstruct the very thing It waa hoped it would aooom plieb. For local and domestic pnrposes, Mr Cookran said he would not be afraid of eilver as a standard ef value, but his objection to it waa based on the fact that throughout the world everything ia measured by gold and, even if we had a national or local atandard, the products of toe farmer ana olker nroa.eere must ultimately, after all, be measured by the universal standard. Mr. Hutchiuson, Democrat of Texas, inquired if the notes of a batik were based upon tbe notes of a farmer where in it was better than tbe farmer's note and Mr. Cockran replied because com merce would accept it. The band of government bad been disastrous to com merce and he was appealing to tbe house to turn back to sound principles where money was baaed on property. All that banking meant was to increase the cap ital that could be used in commerce. A PROPERTY BASIS. "I amoppposed to any tax on curren cy," he replied to a question concern ing tbe 10 per coot on state bank issues. "It is like taxing blood, taxing the speed of a locomotive. It would be to tax everything valuable, to retard progress. As to tbe pending bill, so far as it pro vided that money should be based on property it was sound, but its provisions would nullify its object. If it became a law it would fall mi.thorn, not one note would be issued under 20 years. It would be a monument to the folly of the congress which followed the Sherman ttjt by another makeshift. While tbe greenback had its usee and the greeubacker was unjustly charac terized as a crank, tbeee billa had eerved their proper functions and should be taken out of our currency system." There was a sharp and amusing ex change of words between Mr. Cookran and Mr. Boutelle, Republican of Maine, ac the former epoke of the MclCinley law and a defective financial system ac the cause of the panic last year. Mr. Cockran's reference to the McKinley law was greeted with derisive laughter on the Republican side. Mr. Boutelle remarked that at the last election the people did not endorse tbe views of Mr. Cockran as to the McKinley law. "I have my own viewß," said Mr. Cockran, "ac to the results of last elec tion. Ido not think the Democratic party was in that canvass." la reply to a question, Mr. Cockran aaid he favored the Baltimore plan in its entirety, Mr. Henderson, Republican, of Illi nois, asked if tbe pressing question was not bow to pay tbe running expenses of the government. "That ie the question but not all tbe queetion. It is a very seriouß position which makes any trade dependent on the solvency of the treasury and what I am seeking is a system that will divorce commerce from the govern ment." In closing Mr. Cockran drew a picture of the advancement of busi ness, industry, science and the arts un der a regime in which the money of the people was placed on a sound basis. THE PURPOSE OF THE BILL Mr. Cstchings said tbe upshot of Mr. Cockran'e epeecb was to adopt the Balti more plan and thus turn his back on tbe treasury, leaving it to take oareof itself. The purpose of tne bill was to provide tbe people with a more abundant and elastic currency and to relieve the treas ury by retiring the large proportion of outstanding greenbacks. In dis oassing the probable effect of tbe Carlisle bill, Mr. Catchioga said tbe outstanding certificates would be changed for those of smaller denomina tions to satisfy tbe needs for small money. It would follow that the bullion in the treasury would be coined and a smaller percentage of customß duties paid in silver. The key to the po sition was that under the Balti more plan the government would be made to stand sponsor for the notes of tbe bank while it would not be under the pending bill. The superiority of the Carlisle plan over the Baltimore plan was that it contemplated ultimate re tirement notes, while the latter bad no object but tbe profit of its framers. Mr.Catchings spoke in support of the soundness of state banks. At the close of Catchings' speech the house voted not to concur in the senate amendments to the military appropria tion bill, and then, at 5:20 o'clock, ad journed. TIIE BALLOT AT BLUBFIELDS.

The Guardian of Sarah Althea Makes a Statement. Some Strictures on the Woman's Relatives. He Will Petition the San Franoleoo Court to Appoint Tom Williams aa Guardian. By Tiik Hiuai.d'B Leased Wire. St. Louis, Jan. 5. —Porter Ashe, the famous California horseman who is in this city with his stable of raoers, epent all day preparing a lengthy statement in answer to the charges recently made against him before the superior court in San Francisco by T.

The salient features of Mr. Ashe's statement are as follows: "To recall to public notice Borne of the incidents which led to Mrs. Terry'e unfortunate mental condition is like stabbing tbe dead. I had hoped that tbe last act in her dramatic career had ended, but this man Williams has raised her from her legal grave, and at tempted, with tbe aid of her brother, to vent his vengeful spite.
