Republican Senators, ut . full caucus
this morning. unanimously agreed 10
preas Keliogg's Ease To q final vote by
8 continuous session, IL necessary. al
though there was no objection TO de-
ferring the commencing OF such SEES

and that the attempt to secur the ad-
mission OF General Butler aud Eustis
to seats in the Senate before tho v0te
