the HOUSE COMMITTEES TO Be
ANNOUNCED ON MONDAY.
Doubt About the Confirmation of
Presidential Appointments.

Oct. ~.
According tn a programme arranged
by the Democratic leaders OF the
House this evening, the House VIII
adjourn tomorrow until Monday.
This will be done for the double pur.
pose of affording Speaker Randall all
Friday aud Saturday to gather infor-
nation concerning the So or 30 new
Republican members with the vie OF
tittiugly assigning them COMMITTEES
positions, and also to let the Colorado
case go owe as unfinished business,
and thus to prevent a call OF states on
Monday for resolutions, which II
seems are thought likely to prove as
perplexing and troublesome to the
Democrats as to their party opponents.
All the committees will be announced
OIL Monday. 1t is now considered GER
tain that Atkins, of tennessee, will be
made chairman of Appropriations. and
that the craftsmanship of the Pacific
Railroad Committee will be given tn
Throckmorton, of Texas, and that Of
the Judiciary to Randolph Tucker, Of
Virginia. 1t is also believed hat Say.
Ter will be placed on the Ways and
Means, and Ewing, of Ohio, the cham
pion OF soft money advocate. on the
Banking and Currency Commitlee.
Throckmorton's chances for the Pa
cific Railroad craftsmanship are, how
ever, lessened by efforts being made
In behalf of Regain. OF Texas, to place
him at the head OF the Currency Com
miltee.
1t is painfully apparent that many Of
the Presidents nominations are not re-.
ceived with great cordially by the Sem
ate, and there is a growing doubt OF the
confirmation of many of The most i'm
portant of them. This is especially the
case with those which nave been re.
ferred to the Judiciary Committee.
whose members are generally opposed
or Indifferent To the President. Every
nomination of a Democrat, will, IL is
safe to say, be sent Jack to him. The
members say in defense of their re-
fusal to confirm them, that the South
ern negroes and Republicans have lost
every means of defense and protection
except the Federal Courts. They in.
tend to insist that the affairs of these
courts he men whose loyalty to the
cause of human freedom cannot be
questioned. Members of the Cabinet
say the reason the President did not
advise with the members of the Senate
on appointments, Was that the Senators
were absent. and that the President
will not be- disappointed if some of his
nominations are rejected forthat cause
In the House to-day. afier reading
the Journal, the consideration of the
Colorado case vas resumed, and Har-
risOn made an add rpss advocating Pat
terson's right to a seat. Garfield sup
ported Bedford Is having q prfnd Jdcie
right. Adjourned.
Speaker Randall has completed his
list OF committees, so far As Democratic
Representatives are concerned, and to-
night is consulting leading Republic
cans, regarding the minority repre-
sensations.
A Western Representative, who is
opposed to substituting the Texas Pa
cific Railroad, and who has taken some
pains to canvas the House on the sub
ject. says the prospect Is weaker in the
| present Congress than 1t was in the last.
He does not believe there is the least
prospect of the passage of any hill ex-
tending further aid to this undertak'
ing.
