Senators this morning was slimly attended, there
beinc present barely quorum. The caucus was
called TO discuss the eXpedieucy and prospective
result of an ATTEMPT to elect Democratic successor
70 Secretary Burch. wide diversity of views was
deyeloped by the discussions and the cancus aa-
iourued without reaching any conclusion as TO What
should be attempted. One OF the most ProhnhehI
Democratic Senators SAID this afternoon that Whle
of course he was not authorized to speak LOT ll'o
caucus, it was his judgment that no attempt TO
change the present organization OF the Senate
,,ould be made before December. 1t Is understood
that several of the Democratic Senators think that
with ex-senator Withers as their caucus nominee
they would stand fair chance Of clecting him. but
that they would be unable 70 elect Colonel Wash
ipcton. the present nominee OF the caucus. Several
other Senators are said to favor the promotion OF
Chief Clerk Shober to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of Secretary Burch and believe that he could
be elected. On the other hand Colonel Washing
toms friends insist that that gentleman coulG be
elected if the matter were pressed, because, thSV

iBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRtBuNE.l
WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.-FUr some occult reason
the Democrats appear to be anxious to postpone II
not to suppress the publication Of the report of the
Treasury investigation ordered by Secretary VIM
DOM For months Democratic newspapers have
teemed with accusations against ex-Secret&ry
Sherman based upon assertions that this report con-
tains damaging disclosures affecting his Official ana
personal integrity; and it has been asserted with
the greatest freedom by the journals that Sec
retarv Window in order to screen guilty Slr. Sher
man. stubborny refused to allow the contents of the
report TO be made public. In view of these facts it
was certainly a matter of surprise that when
Senator Sherman to-day tried to procure the passage
of his resolution calling for this damaging report
with view to publication, Democratic Senator,
Mr. Farley of California. Sprang to his feet and
moved that the resolution be postponed nutl next
Friday. Mr. Farley supported his motion in some
inaudiblc remarks and then Mr.. sherman said that
he would not object TO the postponement asked, al
though he should insist upon q vote being taken
upon the resolution ut this session.
