Yesterday the senate met nt 10 a. in., Ittt the dhvitsslon on the question of the uincnilincnt of the journal (the sub ject which has been beforo the scnito or the laet two days) was not taken up till ll a. in., when Mr. Stewart took the floor. The Intervening hour haj been taken up In waiting for a quorum nnd in reading of a report from the treasury dopar mi-nt as to the financial aspect of the govornment for the current tlscal year. The miih ining up of the document Is th.U (if the present conditions continue) thero 'will be a deficit of JJ.'iU.OOI.OUO at the end of the year. Mr. Stewurt finished his speech within two hours nnd loft the cham ber. He was followed by Mr. Dubois, who declared that there could be no moro unfortunate occasion for the exercise of arbitrary power thau tli present, Mr. Dubois declared in the course of a short t-peech that he would not with draw from the position lie had taken against the repeal bill, even if tttc pen alty of expulsion were visited upon him. us us suggested at one of the night sessions by Mr. White of I,ouls iana, wh so language o i tu.it occa s on, he said, was more lit for a bar room than n hcu.itc. After a speech by Mr. Call against imy change In the rules, notice was given by .Mr. Quay of an ameudmeiit to tho repeal bill. Mr. Itutler then took thu floor anil inveighed against the propositions of Senators Hill and Mills lie remarked that the party in power was bjnt on mischief. He dujlur.'tl that if the propositions of Senators Hill and .Mills were adopted thero would bo bedlam In the senate, if not anarchy. Continuing. Mr. liutler reached a joint where Mr. Hill arose anil said: "I understand the senator to say that if a majority refuses to compromise with a minority the bill ought not to pass.'' Mr. liutler And I repeat it. Mr. Hill I take Issue with the sen ator. Mr. Duller I repeat it, anil have no apologies to make for it. Nine-tenths of the measures which become law in this country aro the lesiilts of com promise. Mr. Hill My position is that under our form of govei iiiueut the minority has a right to express its views, mid has a right to emlcavoi to impress them upon the majority. If the m.i jorlty iccognles this views of the mluoritv, It has a right to do so Hut I cannot liiid anything in the constitu tion of the I'liited Mates which says that u minority of senators can pats a hill Mr. Duller Nor I, Mr. I'icsideut. I have made no such statement, I have not slated that u mlnoi ity can pass u bill. Mr. l'alincr Can I. as a senator from the state of liliiioN, be allowed to vote for repeal of tho Sherman law'.' Mr. liutler The senator can an swer that question for himself.' I do not control his vote lie has the right to vote whenever the opportuni ty Is offered. Mr. l'lilmer When can I have, the opportunity'.1 Mr. Dutler When debate closes Mr. I 'ulnier In all discussions the minority has the right in good faith to exercise the right of free debate, but I deny the right of the minority to discuss for the purpos.i of delay. Mr. liutler Nobody claims that Who is to determine whether 1 am now speaking for obstruction or not'.' Mr. I'nlmer First, tho senator him self; .second, the majority of this body As there had been frequent out-but-kts of applausu nil through the discussion between Mr Duller and Messrs. Hill and 1'almer the attention of tho vico president was called to this last infraction of good order and the vice president seriously warned tho visitors that he would ordei the galleries cleared if the disorder were iigalu icpcateil. Thereupon a well-dressed man n otio of llic galleries loudly declared that as he had been a conspicuous iilTender he would withdraw, which lie did without trouble, Mr. Dut'er lesttmed tho floor; ills tdnlmcd tho idea that any of the plaudits of the galleries wore intended for him, nnd intimated that the gal leries had been packed for the benefit of tho senator from Now York Con tinning, Mr. Duller drew a ludicrous picture of Mr. Mills and Mr Sherman joining in a cudial, loving, voluptuous rmbrnee. M the close of Mr. Duller' speech, which was delivered with much dra matic r.iTeet and to. nn admiring audi ence, Mr. Teller's motion to amend the journal was withdrawn. Tho journal of .Monday was then un proved, and the repeal bill was laid before tho senate. Mr. I'effer addressed tho senate in continuation of the speech begun last week, but ho did not finish it, and at ft p. tu. tho senate took a recess until 10 a. in. to-day. j'lim.iu ki:vi:m)k ami i:m':nsi'.

Oct i I Senator Me Vhcison, for the senate couimiUo. i on coinage, presented a statement from the secretary of the treasury fallowing that the estimated receipts of the public revenues a submitted to a'lie last congress for thu pros -ent llscnl year was SJO.i.OOu.ihK), not including the postal service, and estimated expenditures, n'&o including the poital M.'1-vico, to be !307,OM,Out, showing an estimated excess of re ceipts of S3 2, 000, OOd for the year. The estimate show nvernge monthly re ceipts of W.l.T.IO.ooo nnd average ex penditure of S3!, 000,000. The actual receipts so far during tho year do not reach the estimate by over 87.000,000 per month. This maues u deficit for the llrst fiscal quarter of 821, '-Ml, 000. as compared with the corresponding qunrter of last year. Should the actual receipts cont nuts for the year as for the llrst qunrter, they would fall below the estimate, to the" amount of M7,IS2,3Sti. Tho actual expenditures for tho llrst quarter have amounted to S3.1, 810,700 per month, or tl.7.1 1,37.1 in ex cess of the estimate, and would, sup sing these rcceiptsand expenditures continue us for the first months, show an excess of expenditures over actual tecelpis of 870,118,83. The receipts of the treasury for the six months, preceding the commencement of the present liscal year, were an average ratoof S3l,47H,7'JI, and if the condi tions then existing had continued :i deficit would have been itverted, or nt most would have been cry s nail, since the receipts would have been In creased for the year by $00,230.0.0 over the present indications. He attributes tho falling off to finan cial disturbances. He says a careful Inspection of the figures will show the detlclt is due to tho falling off in the revenues. '-It Is apparent," ho said, "that should the present conditions continue for any considerable length of time, deficiencies are likolv to occur I which should either be averted or met by ap, ropriato legislation With tho small working balance in the treasury, should there be no increase in receipts for the remainder of the year and no reduction of expenditures, thero may be contemplated a deficit at the end of the year of S10.000.00J In the rev enues or over 88),OOJ.OOO with refer ence to the estimates. t'oM'i;ititi:n with ruti.isi.i:. The MciTlng Ciniiiiilttru Still Working on C"iiiiruinUi .Mem ii re Washington, Oct. 20 Senators (ionium, Hansom, White, Cockroll, Vilas, Cray, Walthall and Dlnckburn, the committee appointed to wait on Secretory Carlisle an. I tj submit to him propositions looking to a compro mise, remained in "executive session" with him at the treasury department from 3 o'clock until 4:30. Senators Camden, Harris and .Jones, of Aikansas, subsequently held n long consultation u ith Mr. Cockroll. So far as could bj asceitaincd nothing definite had been accomplished. The belief exists in the mind of tho caucus committee that the administra tion will concede a repeal, to take effect at si Inline date, and that was one of Iho contentions discussed for some time. The repeal men want the time llxed for .1 unitary or, at tho latest, July I. Isti.1, while tho m ire conserva tive silver m.'it want it to extend to January I, 1 still, as llxed in Mr. Quay's proposed amendment. The cxtiemisls Insist that repeal shall not lake effect until after tho close of this :idmiuUtr:i)n, the amount of silver purchases being re duced in the meantime to 2,000,000 each mouth A representative Southern senator said that if they could got nothing better they would accept July 1, IS'JI. The statement had been made, ho said, that the administration would favor silver legislation If this bill had been rope tied and Democratic tepcal crs had expressed their intention to assist In enacting such legislation. Willi the acceptance of a compro mise the agitation would not end. lie thought within five days after the passage of this bill, two score of finan cial measures would bo Introduced and before spring congress would be in the midst of u discussion on Iho subject that would bo continued until tho next elections, all the tunc in Cleaning tho trouble attending settle ment, and bringing about a condition Iraardiuis- to the Democratic parly.

Charley Mitchell, who Is now In this city, was very angry when informed tint Mayor Doody ol Drooklyu had decided that the fight between Corbutt and himself could not take place at Coney Island. It was the Hist definite intimation that the hnglish pugilist had received of the intended interference by the Itrooltlyn authorities, and at once launched out into a bitter denuueia i ion of the New York ministers, who he claimed were responsible for Mayor Doody's action. He said thoy did not know the diiferenco between n pri.o light and n boxing match, and they would do w-i 11 to attend to their own business. No attempt was made to stop small fights, ho added, but an in ternational affair gave the preachers an opportunity to gjt a little cheap notoriety Mitche'll then declared that the fight would have to coino off.

The bankers of America devoted tho session nt their convention yesterday lo heat lug papers on the financial situation by t'oti'd men, who have given monetary pioblems deep thought, and to discus ion of the ideas advanced. F. O Lcooh, ex d. rector of the I'nited Suite mint, now u Now York hanker, rend ti paper on "The Silver ittcsliou, as Kclaled to tlu Apprecia tion of Hold." In It he said: lie must be blind Indeed who falls to see that tho distrust, which was tho main feala.oof the ivcout panic, has its birth in tho silver policy of this country. Nothing short of n radical roveral of this p.) ley will restore con fidence and attract foreign Invest ment. All foreign invest irs nnd the great mass of our own business peo ple b.Mleve it is not pjlblo for this ouptrv to absorb into Its eurren a depreciated and depreciating metal without resulting in placing our inon etat'3 system on a silver basis, where our paper dollor will represent only a promiso to pay n silvv-r dollar. This is the logical, practical business icason for tho distrust which has been created, and it Is equally logical to sny it will not disappear until the present system shall have bean done away with. 'Tlie 1'anlc in Australia and the Flitted States" was tho subject dis cussed bv Joseph C. Ilendrix of New York lie drew a picture of the rush of British capital into Australia and tho collapse which followed tho period of -'financial intoxication Of America ho declared that the Bland act, followed by the Sherman act, with a free coinage party never idle in congress, drove aw.iy tho foreign capital that Australia had since squandered, nnd this distrust of F.urope in America's ability to keep upon a gold basts came so vividly home w hen tho free gold In the treas ury foil below tlu pjint of fixed re serve that the American people caught the infection of distrust Kvery sl(fn pointed to a steady drain, and tho Liiropcan holders of iocurities to the extent of probably a thousand mil lions had the gold supply at their mercy. Do declared that 'Kansas led the list In the number of f lilurcs con sequent on the flurry. He lauded the banks of tho Fast for their course dur ing the trouble, but declared that laws should bo enacted which would provide for prompt action in emer gency. Inclosing, ho said' The essential soundness of com mercial -i nait'ons In thlb country has been so ilemoustrat ul, that as Dngl slimeii vio'w the Argentine and tho Australian collapses, they will bo disposed to u wait with impatience an opportunity to come back lo us with their surplus capitil. That hour will strike when our national finances aro Inline with tlu experience of all civili.cd nations Tho stinging lesson of the panic of HOI Is an old one. It is simply that "honesty Is the best policy." Horace White of New York gave a history of money from the c trly ages to tho present day, tind continuing said: Dttt the point I wish to illustrate is that the check on a bank or private individual's acceptance, or a certifi cate of deposit in u n insurance com pany, or any kind of shin plaster, will perform nil the functions of a bank nolo if the public have tho same con fidence In the issuer. Th ro .s no dif ference between tho check and tho bank note us regards their Inttinslc nattir- tind iharactcr. A perfectly elastic currency would bo one which should rise and fall in vnltimo uui pastt with the quantity of sugar, flour find cloth and other com modities s.okinsr to bo exchanged for the other. It is easy to sco that the cheek system is automatic and elastic and that It accommodates itself to the volume of business at one time us well as another. It Is not quite so easy to seo that the bank note syhtem may bo made automatic and elastic In tho sumo way. Now our problem is to de vise a system where tho bank noto shall be eliutie a tho chock and In like manner make bartor a solcuco. Most o' the misfortunes that have overtaken banks In this country have resulted from loans to speculators, such n udvan es to railway builders, to real estate owners and the like. The requisites of an elastic currency nro, tlrt, that there must hi no limit set upon it except tho demands for In struments with which to exchange the coiuum ib!e products and materi als moving through the country Mich as have been Imported from foreign countries Second, it must lie issuable at once as the demand for it arrises, without waiting for somebody else to do something eUo and without expend ing more money In preparing for it than Is fa'rly obtained.
