 Another Republican caucus is in near pro- spective. It may be held Saturday, but probably not until Monday morning. It is now considered not unlikely that the caucus may decide to hold one or more executive ses- sions, but it will be with the fixed purpose of holding business entirely in Republican hands. The first step in the natural and proper order of business will be to refer pending nominations. Then the committee will report back such as they deem impor- tant to have confirmed, and as the proceed ings will be entirely regular, the Democrats cannot object to it. After the combinations agreed upon by the Republicans shall have been disposed of they can resume the present fight and stick to it as long as they please The rumor that Conkling will make speech against the administration is generally dis credited, and by intimate friends of the stall wart absolutely denied.
