4 SCHEME OF TIE AGITATORs.
TALK OF DECLARING MR. TILDEN PRESIDENT II TIE
DEMOCRATS GET A MAJORITY.


IBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE
WAsHINGrOS, Nov est is impossible to con-
ceal the fact that many Of the Republicans IN Wash
mgton are 10y no means easy in their minds over the
rumors that Mr. Tilden to be declared the lawfully
elected President of the United States, by joint
oution of Congress- afterthe Democrats have gained
a majority in the Senate.
Some Of the Republicans openly avow their belief
that the plans for such coup q etat were long ago
perfected and that the attempt to the adms-
sion Of General Butler aud Mr.. Eustls to in the
Senate before a vote was taken the Keilogg-Spof
ford ease is a part Of the programme. They remem-
Der that Proctor Knott reported from the
Special Committee on the Powers and Priv
ileges Of the House the last day OF the
last session Of Congress, after the Electoral
dispute had been settled, resolution declaring that
Messrsr Tlden and Hendricks received 1876 Electoral
votes for the Offices respectively Of President aud
Vice President OF the United States, all Of which
votes were cast and lists thereof signed. certified,
and transmitted TO the scat of Government, ETC.,
and declaring that in the opinion of the
House both Of the Democratic candidates
had been lawfully elected. On this resolution
the yeas and nays were called, and II was carried by
fine solid vote of the Democracy. VI the lao VINO
voted in the Affirmative on this resolution. eighty
five are still members of the House. There IS no
reason to believe so Representatives say that these
same men would not vote for a similar resolution
to-day or 20 doubt that the authority OF the Demo
cratic caucus would not be sufficient 20 secure Tor II
fine unanimous support of the Democracy
IL may not be that the Democratic managers OF
this scheme propose to put II III operation during
the present Winter, even If such plan actually eA
lists although there some indications that II such
resolution should be introduced IN the senate dur
ing the December session, IL might possibly Dc pass
ed Tie fact that many Republicans VINO are not
frightened at trifles look upon these rumors IN
veTV serious light shows how great the feeling OF
polical insecurity Is which now prevails In wash
lngtOu.

SECRETARY THOMPSON'S REPORT.
AN INCREASE OF THE NAVY RECoMNEsDED-A
MORE COMPREHENSIVE POLICY NEEDED.
inv TuRaRAPH To- THE rRmuER1

WASHINGTON. Nov. 2s.-The Secretary Of the
Navy has completed his annual report. In addition
to interesting information in regard to the present
condition of the Navy. it presents review
Of its condition for the past ten years.
The conclusion Of the Secretary is that naval
legislation in the past has been OF such
fragmentary character, that the efficiency OF tne
service, both in ships and men, has been very IN
iunously affected. He believes In the creation OF
6rst-class Navy With the revival OF foreign trade
81 the daveloument of commerce, he thinks 1t
yu become necessary that the Navy should DO
established ON a footing much more commemorate
yritb our importance as a Nation. The Secretary
susgests that a comprehensive policy having ID
view the gradual increase of the Navy shal De
adopted. and as this is matter which belongs !"
Congress, he will urge legislation for that object
La addition to an increase of the NUMBER anu
character Of naval vessels Secretary thompson also

Messrs. Edmunds Hoar, and Others explain that the
Constitution required tine VicePresident to give the
casting vote in all cases Of tie. Messrs. Thurman
and Eaton held to the opposite view. As il made no
difference in this case, the appeal was abandoned,
but the Democrats gave notice that they would OBJ
ject 10 such a vote if il occurred again.
Mir Wheeler finally announced that he should ex-
ercise the privilege at discretion.
The next motion was by Senator Salisbury, who
moved to recommit the Kellogg resolution to the
committee, in order to give Mr. Spoford chance to
establish facts against Mr.. Kellogg which he had
no chance of being heard before the Committee on
Privileges and Elections Two hours Of debate fol-
lowed. which was chiefly participated in by the
Republican and Democratic members of the COM
mlttee.
Senator Hin made a strong speech against Mr..
kellogg's admission, presenting many new points,
and arOusing a good deal of interest. His manner
was somewhat unsenatOrlal but hls friends say thaL
he IS accustomed to speaking to large masses Oh
people, and in a short time his voice ana yes uIes

A COMPROMISE PROPOSED.
The Democratic Senators will hold a caucus at 10
o'clock tomorrow morning to consider proposition
made by the Republican Senators to fix time for
closing the debate on the admission of contestants
Senator Edmundss proposal is to name an hour by
consent of both parties, at which vote on the adj
mission Of Butler, Corbin, Kellogg, Spohord and
Eusts shall take place, with the understanding that
those admitted shall all be sworn IN at the same
time. considerable number of prominent Demo-

MIR. Corbin seems to have no chance whatever Of
admission. Senator'S Conover and Paterson having
declared that in their judgment General Bdter was

even after General Butler has been defeated, al
though they might allow him to slip ia by reInam-
ing away, and not voting providing he had Che sup

Mr. KeHoggs fate is even more doubtful than
General Buffers. Ii has always been believed, ever
since Congress met in extra session. that four or five
Republicans would vote against his admission
when the question was taken up. Tue excitement
