REPUBLICAN, CAUCUS.


The republican conference held by the admin.
istraton members of the senate and a few other
prominent republicans, was in fact q caucus
called at the instance of Chandler and some OF
his friends, for the purpose of etfecting the re
mOval of Irumbull and FentOn from their re.
spective positions as chairmen of the judiciary
and contingent expenses committees. No def
mite plan has been resolved upon regarding q
successor to kenton. but it was generally under
stood, II the movement succeeded, hEdmunds
would replace Trumbull at the head of the judi
ciary committee.
Senator Wilson, aided by Col John W. For
ney, who was present as a privileged person
quietly urged the Improperly of the movement
and cited the ill results which followed the re-
moVal of Sumner from the foreign relations
committee why the efforts should be abandoned.
Others, who were interested in preventing a
further rupture in the party, pointed out the
possibility, if not the probability, of failure
by the democrats TO nominate a regular candi-
date, and the consequent necessity of preserving
the unity of the republican organization.
Peaceful connsels finally prevailed, and the mat
ter was dropped for the present

ESPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE DAILY sPY.I
WAsHINGToN, D. c., May 9

WASHINGTON, D. c., May g.
DEMOCRATIC VIEW OF THE NOMINATION.
The democratic members of congress are evil
IDENTIFY, by large majority, opposed to taking
up Greeley and Brown. The feeling against it
has strengthened greatly within a day or two,
and one cause of it is the reception of dispatches
from nearly all the prominent party leaders,
stating that they are opposed TO adopting the
Cincinnati ticket. Some OF the ablest democrats
in the house have privately declared that they
did not care the toss of a copper whether Grant
or Greeley is the next president; and such men
as Voorhees, say openly that they would rather
have Grant as president, elected by republican
votes, than Greeley elected by democratic votes
THE PARTY LEADERS
Naturally oppose anything which will tend to
break up the party and endanger their re-elec-
ton to congress. The rumOrs that Gen. Grant
has an idea of Withdrawing us a candidate at
Philadelphia are all without foundation. Recent
interviews with him by prominent republicans
show that he has not the slightest fear of the
Cincinnati movements and has not entertained
the thought Of withdrawal. Many republicans
in congress think it would be better if Grant
would withdraw, but quite as many hold that
he is the strongest candidate the party can
select However that may be, IL early every body
agrees that there is very slight prospect that
Grant will be dropped at Philadelphia.
FREE SALT.
Gen Butler made a vigorous attempt to OBJ
tain free salt for the fisherman, to-day, but he
was checkmated by MIR. Farnsworth, who
Shrewdly proposed, as an amendment to Mr..
Buffers proposition, that salt used to preserve
meats and butter should also be free A Vir-
ginian added "salt used as fertilizer" and as
the amendments were carried, it broke down
the original proposition.
CONDENSED CANNON FOR OUR MONUMENT.
The house has agreed to the bill giving GER
tain condemned cannon for a soldiers monu-
ment at Worcester.
THE TARIFF BILL.
Very little progress was made in the house
with the tariff bill. There was stirring con-
trOyersy over salt, but it was allowed to remain
as in the bill, with a reduction from eighteen
cents to eight on each hundred pounds. At the
rate the house has progressed to-day the bill
will occupy three weeks at least; but it is ex
pected that after the members have talked for a
few days, that they. will allow the bill TO move
along more rapidly.
THE WEATHER
Is hot here to-day, and members were driven to
the use of fans to be comfortable; talk of getting
in the senate adjournment resolution has been
common, and if the weather continues hot few
days longer, Mr. Dickey of Pennsylvania is sure
to move the discharge of the ways and means
of the resolution, and bring it before the house
for immediate action.
AMNESTY.
The senate went through its old contest over
amnesty to-day, and killed it with civil rights.
The prospect of passing civil rights or an am
nesty bill this session is very small
