It is believed the miners have decided to accept thc operators' offer that the anthracite strike commission take . up the dis pute,; but will ask that the tribunal be permitted to consider the original demands with certain important modi fications.

In the Senate Mr, Aldrich express- 1 ed thc Opinion that ih? edd of the general debate *>ri tile railroad rate bill would become apparent before the end of tho present week, and that then an agreement upon a day.?br;a. vole could be reached. The statement was made in response to a request :by Mr. Tillman for such an agreement^ There was no other discussion:;of;vthe rate bill during the day, owiiig'tpTthe; j fact that no senator Avas prepared: to speak., lt was aunoii?ced\?^a't^;Hr.i Spooner Would reply..to.-Miv.Ba\^?7s speech. ??' Thc session- was almost entirely de- -, ted to the consideration of the con ference report on the bill providing for the final settlement of the affairs of the Five Civilized Tribes of Indians and in connection with that report there was a sharp controversy over an amendment inserted by the senate which'provided for the ratification of the dispursement of $lS6,000.of the Loyd Seminole fund made by Special Agent J. E. Jenkins and Administra tor A. J. Brown. The debate turned upon the exceptional fact that the' ( house Avas insisting upon the reten tion of a senate amendment from which the senate Avas appcarently anx ious to recede. The debate Avas characterized by a uumebr of spirited passages between Mr. Tillman on the one side and Messrs. Teller and Clapp on the other. The South Carolina senator contended that the Indians had been defrauded, Avhile his oppon ents urged that if they had been the proposed legislation did not deprive them of their rights under the laAv. No conclusion Avas reached. Some Lively - Discussions. After a brief speech by Mr. Lati mer in support of the House railroad rate bill, Mr. Foraker took the floor on the measure and consumed practi cally all of the remainder of the day's session. He spent some time in the discussion of some of the amendments he has suggested to the bill and then entered upon the consideration of the eui ire question of railroad rate regu lation, urging again the unconstitu tionality of the pending bill from va rious points of view. He was fre quently interrupted by other Senators. Mr. Lodge spoke briefly in support of the practice of granting loAver rates on goods intended for export than on those used in domestic consumption. Mr. La timer in his speech said that at the present time seven corporations control practically all of the railroads of the country, and no argument is necessaiy to convince a thinking man thal his consolidation means the elim ination of competition and the placing of despotic power in the.hands of a few men.
