No senator has given uotice of an in tention to speak ou tats bill, but silver coinage is a subject upon wnieh some senators at least are never dumb. It is altogetner unlikely that the finance committee will be able to re port the taritt bill to the senate this week, as the members of that commit tee are all more or less interested in the seigniorage bill, and will beans ions to be in the senate during the de bate. The sundry civil appropriation bill, which was called up by Chairman dryers jnst before the house adjourned Saturday, will engross the attention of the house probably all the week. This is the bill which covers all the great appropriations of the government, not included in the t.v general depart mental appropriation bills and matters pertaining to Indians and rivers and harbors. It is the omninm gathernom of all the odds and ends and is the only bill into which a ::ew appropriation can afely be injected without running the rink of being thrown out on a point of order.

Vigorous Debates Over the Matter at Berlin Unlawful Conscription of an American Citizen.. Berlin, March 11. The debate on the Russian treaty yesterday disap pointed the crowded hous. It was be gun with vigor, but loat, interest rap idly after Chancellor Von Caprivi and Freiherr Mtrschal Von Bieborstein made their short, business like replies to the attacks of the opposition. Tho agrarians, in fi tal desperation, threw off all pretense of argument and invoked support to their cause in the nam of loyalty to emperor anu em pire, but their appeals were treated with qnit contempt by the house. During the whole of the debate the titled Prussian land owners had hardly a word to say concerning the harmful influences of the trusty on the grain growing districts. That Germany should accept a com mercial agreem-ntto avert war with Russia, th-y said, was to degrade the empire in tho eyes of hur.ipe and to weaken its influence among the powers. Several agrarian speakers pleaded the cause of the Jew baiters, saying that th treaty would afford the Jewish usurers further power to prey upon tue peasant proprietors. The vote disclos.-d the demoraliza tion of the parties. s was expected, the conservative, na onal, liberal and clerical leaders did not hold their men together and many voted independ ently, while others declined to vote at all. Count Herbert Bismarck answered "No" when his name was called. The majority for the treaty is expected to be still larger at the third reading.
