REPUBLICAN LEADERS ON THE
!. ATTITUDE OF THE PRESIDENT. =

The republi can, leaders are more con-
founded by the attitude OF their Presi-
dent than the democratic leaders we're
confounded seven months ago by the at
titude of the ELECTORAL Tribunal they had
4 erected. uo s..' 3ni 90 A"un i.' -ilNA f"
1t wrs the hope Of Senator Conkrng
and other decided republican Senators to
lay over those cases of contest and
credentials until after the spec,f' session,
meantime letting the ,electiors a Penu-
| sylvania, and New York more especially,
come off uninfiuenced a division Of the
republican Senators. ~. . .A'A 's'sA q
twas noticed that none Of the South
ern Senators took any part in the debate.
They are averse to discr ssion in which
the Sonsaern question may again bt come

| REpUBLIc \. HAYES SENATOR'S. d.
Iasked MIR. Spencer what republican
Senators would probably side with
Hayes. r....'. ...
"George Hoar, Stanley Matthews and
Booth, of California, are COD, idered to
be Hayes centre and right and left wing.
1 believe that Dawes also goes part of the
way with Hoar, in accordance with
Massachusetts, dictum. Then Burnside
| talks Hayes good deal. The most not
able de ecti perhaps is Morrill,, of
| VerD ont, who has gen ally been in ac-
cord with Edmunds. He is leaning, l
think, toward Hayes policy. Dorsey, of
Arkans. !, is the only one OF our set that
is Hayes-ing. Paddock, of Nebraska, is
i rather the same way, except on the civil
service. We don't know anything about
Christiancy's attitude. Angus Cameron,
although elected by Independents, is a
i sound and and firm republican. McMil-
Ian also seems TO be substantial man,
reliable as a n orthern Seuator. Wheeler
dislikes Coukling and cottons to II ayes.
Joe Chaffee belongs to Blaine; Blaine has
a sort of lease of all the jobbing interest.
Thele are about eight or nine republican
Senators who indicate an intention to
support Hayes policy,and think have
named them al"
"Then he has the whole democratic
pal ty to draw?
rely on them one minute after he gets in
straits. They will assist to disintegrate
| us but they look on him with less real re-
| spect than they do upon the upright,
bold, sincere republicans. Conkling h.
acquired more character among the
democratic leaders since the Roche ster
Convention than he ever had. The Hayes
policy, which breaks up the republi can
vote, they assent to without respecting
it. But they recognize in the few uL-
hlnchlng men who are seeking to give
direction TO the betrayed and discouiag.
ed republican party masculine antagon-
lists, leaders with common sense"

THE ACTION OF THE SENATE IN THE
LoUIsI.,N ma BUSINESS.
The chagrin of the Louisiana demo-
clatc Senators to-day could not be dis
! guised. 1t means indefiDite waiting for
the disposal of their credentials, and will
enable them to understand the trial
! which M. 'Pinchback had to undergo
, for several years while his case was
pending. In egard to the action of the
= Committee on Elections, it is understood
J to be the purpose of the republican mem
bers, If the Senate does not discharge
them from the further consideration of
7 the subject, to await the arrival of the
Chairman, Senator NJ Morton, whose pres
eDce here is promised by the first Mon
DAY in December. 1t is claimed that
there is no particular hurry for dispos-
ing OF THESE c. Ses at the ext "a session.
3 Then, should Mr.. Morton not be able 10
n attend early in December, he may be
here alter the holidays. in regard to
Mr.. kelloGg's claims, his political friends
IN the Senate say that while he is
:, anxious to have seat be is willing to
wait. so long as it strengthens his
party.
