supporters, under the leadership Of Nor

hausted their resources, foughs against ad-
| journment III order that his admission might

| nents could collect their strength. This Ie-
suit Is disastrous 70 Morton's leadership,
and reveals p surprising lack Of discipline
among his followee. The friends of nc
Miller are in the best spirits and very
hopeful.
The eelegfa 2hie notice OF the action of
Congress, furnished che RzpypAcAs by
Che Associated Pres, is this:
A sesolution foy . .ecess from e0-Hay until
Monday, Jannsry S, Was passed-ehisty two
TO twenty-sevsH. The discussion OF this
resolution developed che ideas of Senator's
on the repeal Of tho bankrupt law. which,
IN the main, we're adverse.
Tais is followed by a statement that
Senator Morton offered and argued i'll
ssructions 10 the Judiciary Committee on
the proposed sepsal Of che bankrupt acs.
This resolution vas discussed and Laid On
The table. Would it not have been as
fair TO infer che disappointment: of the
opponents Of compulsory and involuntary
bankruptcy, m the adjournment, IS to
have attributed that discomfort to the ad-
vocacy Of seating Gle Aouisians Senator?
There wese measures of finance pending
Of sstseme impostasce. Shall che fiscal
deficiency be made sosA by o Joan, an
issue q slose eareeocy. OF by taxation?
These age questions hat might well make
tue Senate pause befcse distressing for che
enjoy ments Of the sason. Il is possible
thas each end alH Of these intesests COM
bieed 40 postpone adjournment 20 a Later
date. The Lousians case eonId not have
bean urged as . season tos continued ses-
coon. Indeed, in another column Of che
Pica.esn. it is ADMITTED that our seasoning
is correct:
We ase informed S'om Washir seon that
the Gouisiana case has given way to more
important Tuestions o AnaHce and revenue.
This eMphatically contradicts the copy
boz CORES ondent, since - shows that the
adjousnme0s was sH connected in any
manner with seating the Louisiana Senator.
Yhese could have teen no need of . de-
cision either for the business Of the Senate
or che interests Of the Republican party.
Among she seventy Four Senators there is
but one vacancy. There are but three
Liberal Republicans and but nineteen
anti Republicans. With clean snajority
Of shirly Republicans what odds could
it make to the Republican party whether
Louisiana was represented by one Gepub-
licaa o. two? Bus the Picayune CORE

Tbese is another specimen Of our special,
PEP copy boz. The Associated Press
sends us this:

ernor Bard leave for home to-day. Messrs.
