Washington special thinks Caperton's
death will likely postpone the Belknap
verdict. The Suns Washington special
says the conviction seems to have grown

Impeachment finds itself in a funny
predicament. The Senate adjourned
last night until eleven this morning, and

o'clock. The Senate met and adjourned,
but the court did not meet. There is

with number of Senators concerning
the time of final adjournment, and was
informed that the Senate will be ready
to adjourn on Monday. He does not

all the business before Wednesday, and

for $40. and favors the passage of the
House bill thus amended, through the
Senate.
