Democratic Senator's here that the pre-
liminary conference will probably be de-
ferred. until tomorrow morning. The Ave
who are at the Atlanta Cotton Fair will
not be here until morning. Morgan and
Garland are quoted as being willing to
give the Republicans the presiding officer,
the Democrats having the Secretary and
sergeant-at-Arms. The Republicans would
unanimously accept such a proposition.

to fail to take the presiding officer would
disgust the rank and file of their party,
and be an admission that their representa-
tives are unwilling to take power when it
falls to them. Arthur told some Demo.
cratic Senators this morning that 1t would
be wise for their party to yield the Presi-
dency Of the Senate to the Republicans.
