Miller Matter Laid Aside In Senate Conflicts Over Miller Nomination
Washington July 11. The Miller matter triggers renewed friction between Senator Quay and Magee over the failed confirmation of George Miller as Collector of Revenue. A political settlement aims to hang the appointment in committee until next winter with Miller likely to be confirmed later, as Wanamaker faces possible cabinet cuts and Quay campaigns on Sunday opening protests for the World's Fair. The Homestead affair attracts intense Pittsburgh interest and Senate adjournment is anticipated in two weeks. Captain Hooper reports a British steamer violation at Port Allen and transfers cargo for prosecution, valuing vessel and cargo at about $100,000.

The document warns repeal of the 1890 silver purchase law would flood the market with mine output, depress silver bullion, and derail prospects from the upcoming international money conference as Europe seeks more currency.
