Senate Free Coinage Battle Moves To Open Debate
Washington March 30 Interest in the silver question shifts to the Senate as Senator Stewart plans to call up the free coinage bill after morning business. The bill, on the calendar as passed over with out prejudice, faces an adverse finance committee report and five minute debate limits per senator. A Vest Carlisle canvass predicts ten Democratic votes against free coinage, with Gorman possibly casting the deciding vote if the estimate holds, potentially tying the chamber and leaving Vice President Morton to decide.
