Some property owners In this vicinity

stormy weather. Representative Rich
ardson of Tennessee acted as chair
man and Representatives Cummlngs ol
New York and Cowherd of Mississippi
as secretaries.
Representative Bailey of Texas took
the Initiative by presenting the follow.
Ing series of resolutions:
Resolved, That It Is the sense of thlt
caucuB that the Democratic members ol
the house of representatives ought to
resist all efforts, direct or Indirect, to
retire the greenbacks and treasury
notes.
R' ived, second. That we are op

extend the privileges of national bank

pay.
Resolved, third, That we favor the
early consideration and passage of the
senats resolution recognlzlngthat a con
dltlon of war exists In the Island ot
Cuba between the government of Spain
and the Cuban people.
Resolved, fourth, That we favor the
early enactment of a lust and wise
bankruptcy law.
The first three features of the resolu

vigorous and unanimously favorable.
Mr. Bailey made the main speech, urg
ing that Democratic members should
take their position promptly against
those financial movements, now assum
ing formidable dimensions owing to the
recommendations given to them by the
president and secretary of the treasury.
He also spoke for a clear cut position in
