POSSIBLE FAILURE OF THE SENATE TO PASS TUE
CIVIL RIGHTS BILL OVER THE VETO.
The probable result Of the on the veto of the
Civil Rights bill Is st the great topic here The radi
Gals have ceased their growing about being able to over
ride the veto and have found that the postponement OF
the vote has seriously damaged their chances for
passing the bill over the veto. 1t is generally
conceded that the necessary twothirds vote cannot
be secured in the Senate II Senator Dixon is able
to be present. which at present appears certain His
presence will secure seventeen for sustaining the
veto, there being only fifty with full Senate after
Stocktons and Foots successors elected There is
no hope for the radicals except In the sickness Of of
the other side There s therefore, less interest taken
to-day in the result Of the action OF the New Jersey
Leg Stature. 1t is important however the pr sent
disability Of two conservative Senators throws doubt on
their being able to be present The best judges
of the position Of affairs here consider that there
is no doubt of the result and veto will be sus
tanned in the Senate The President in great doubt
yesterday, but has fear of the result to day The
whole affair has taken different turn to day. and there
Is strong probability thar of the prominent
Senators who voted to override the veto of tho Freed
mans Bureau will be found the Presidents sd when
this vote is taken
consid rable delegation o. radical New Yorkers ar.
rived in the city yesterday ard to-day in The hope Of
contributing in some way to the passage Of the Civil
Rights bill the Presidents veto. Prominent among
them some old commerca friends Of Senator Nor
gan, who not without hope Of influencing him to
abandon his support Of the administration and add his
voice and vote TO the radical pbaanx. It confident
ly asserted the street this morning that they would
succeed In winning him back to the radical ranks But
this evening tells different tale Nothing
him, and his besicgers have abandoned the undertaking
Some capital also undertaken be manufactured by
circulating the report that Mr.. wiHam Orton, here
was also IN deadly opposition the veto. Mr. Orton
has been Presidential defender In Union leagues and
elsewhere since his retirement from the Internal Reve
nue. Bureau and II he could be brought TO openly op
pose Mr. johnson inhis crisis IL was considered as at
least one point scored IN the game Of intimidation sought
to be pracsed such thought to be weakened
or undecided. There |, thus far evidence that Mr..
,0rton has lent himielf to ouch Uses
The most reliable expression now 10 that there is no
doubt that tho Presidents veto viii be sustained In the
Senate. Seventecn Senators certain, and II Senator
Wright Of New Jersey. is able to be here there will be
eighteen. The postpopcment of the vcto has insured
the defeat Of the radicals and secured tho Of
President in the Senate certain.
