WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-5In the Senate,
during the morning hour,a large num-
Der OF petitions were presented and re.
ferred. The report ofthe Committee on
new rules for the government of the

tiOn concerning an article about him in
the Union, q Democratic newspaper OF
Washington, charging him with selling
his official influence, and moved that a
committee be appointed to investigate
the charge. AT the unanimous request
OF the Senate he was induced to with
draw the motion. The editor of the u u
ion sent a note stating that he placed no
faith in the charges, land ii he had known
about them he never would have al
lowed their publication.

tions to instruct the judiciary Commit

Voking any nylegislatiYe concessions made
