Augusta, Jan. Tho fusion Sena-
tors made q marked concession to-day
in voting, Is to 12, to refer the matter
of those counted out to special COM
mittee, to act at once. The committee
will probably be named tomorrow.
There were scenes in the house never
before witnessed in New England.
The supreme moment came when the
assistant clerk refused to put the mo-
tion to adjourn, and Mr.. Hale, stand
ing upon desk, put the motion him
self, which was followed by deafening
applause and the immediate withdrawal
Of the republican members. The
whole audience arose and there followed
. tremendous storm of applause. The
audience seemed to be largely ON The
side of the republicans.
The result of the day was really n
triumph for the fusionists, but the re-
publicans say it will be ephemeral. How
amid so much excitement and intense
feeling, good order could be preserved
was a marvel.
The republicans held secret caucus
tonight to determine on their future
action, at which thefe was iuii ana
Tree interchange OF OPINION. III is
thought that the republicans will all
qualify tomorrow and participate in
legislative action.
