Democratic Caucus.

| WASHINGTON, June 14.-At Demo.
cratic csucus, held in thu hall of the
House for the purpose of determining
what course should be pursued by the
| Democratic members of the Committee
OF Conference OF the army appropriation
bill, in addition TO about three iourlhs OF
the Democratic members Of the House
there were also present eight or ten
Democratic Senators, including Baysrd,
Wallace, Withers, Randolph, Hill and
Hereford.
Representative Hewitt, of New York,
who had charge of the bill in the House,
made statement, showing there was
no hope Of an agreement being reached
by the conference committee, except up
on the basis of the House receding from
most, if not all, of its dissgreements to
the principal amendments OF the Senate.
He called attention to the fact that the
House provision for the reduction of the
force Cf the army 10 10000 men was
adopted by an extremely small msj ority,
and that the Senate majority against
this proposition was very large. He also
alluded TO the absolute unsnimity of the
Senate in voting TO refer all questions on
army reorganization to Commission,
to report at the next session of Con.
gress, and to 3 similar action
taken with the concurrence OF
nearly all the Democratic Senators in
regard to the proposed transfer of the
management OF Indian affairs TO the
War Department. In conclusion he ex-
planned the nature of the Senate amend
ments to the posse c0mitatus clause, and
invited an expression OF views on the
part of the caucus, which might be aC-
cepled as instructions for the guidance of
the Democratic Congress. On all points
maintained, an informal debate ensued,
in the coure of which Representatives
Hartrdge, Springer and Blackburn
tooke the ground against any yield
ing OF the House of the positions
oa all these subjects. Mr.. Eden favored
making q stand only on the Indian trans
fer section. NJ. Potter was opposed to
any concession of the penalty provision
stricken out by the Senate from posse
cOnita tlLS clause, and Senators Withers,
Bayard, Hill and Hereford, argued that
the House ought TO yield AL the points
in controversy.
The attendance diminished gradually
during the progress of the dis
cusslOD, and finally the caucus
broke up for want of a quorum,
and without voting any instructions.
Aside from the tenor of some OF the
speeches made in caucus, 1t became eyi-
dent in private interchange OF views
among the members that there are a
sufficient number of Democratic repre-
sentatlves ready to unite with the Repub-
hcsns to ensure the adoption OF con-
ference report, which will yield the
House positions, and the conference
committee will frame their report accord
lngly. l. will be presented and doubt
less adopted by both houses tomorrow.
Lster-The conference committee COM
