Trumbull did not vote Yea on the resolution that
Mr. Stanton illegally removed. On the contrary

jouIn because of the presence of anti-Impeachment
Senator's but because it had no quorum; so say the
anti-Impeachment Senators who were In attendance.
The resignation of Mr. Forney as Secretary OF the
Senate will probably be acted on during the coming

of the Board Tie thinks that while the registration
of the soldiers is illegal he Is constrained under te
rights of the case to dismiss the petition.
