naner. written: by Senator Colhmer, and rcatl
10 the President by him as chairman Of the
conrnittec Of nine..: This was the official ut

and the remarks Of its authorized committed
being simply the expression Of their indirid-
nal views, called forth by the Psesident'a IN,
quiries uith: regard to the precise Significance
: Of the paper which had been read to him. To
ne sure, tile caucus Is in sense responsible
for the general spirit and drift Of the femafks
Of the Senators composing the committee,
since they were selected with a full knowledge
Of their opinions. Bnt the formal act1on Of
the caucus is embodied In Senator Collamcr's

the caucus by its committee. In this only the
Senatorial majority spoke as body. That
paper, from which the seal Of secrecy has
