Washington, May 3.-All the promi-
nent republicans attended the caucus
this morning. They desire TO deter
mine what is contested and what is an
uncontested nomination. The adminis-
tration senators maintained that an
adverse report of q committee should
constitute contested nomination.
Conkling and friends held that an OBJ
lection by one senator from the state
In which the nominations belong made
1t contested. This point was not set
tied, and this afternoon the caucus will
pursue the question.
Conkling was conspicuously pleasant
to-day, which macy regarded as proof
that he was satisfied with the situa-
tion.
The democrats discussed informally
this afternoon how they had better vote
at the approaching executive session.
Some of the democrats are working
hard for Conkling. It ia claimed that
fifteen democrats will vote against Rob-
ertson. There is report, however,
that some of the republicans are drop
ping away from Conkling because they
will not push their fight to the disad-
vantage Of the republican party.
Executive sessions will certainly be
held this week.

Important Discoveries In Egypt.

New York, May 3.-A Cairo, Egypt,
dispatch says: Maspero has just opened
some more pyramids of Sakkara, en-
closing the tombs Of the kings of the
fifth dynasty. The mortuary chapels
Of each contain about eighty square
metres Of the smallest and most closely
written texts, giving the precise details
of the religious belief of that age. 1t
is complete coup de grace to the Osiris
masonic theory, and all previous con-
ceptions are entirely upset. Except
the finding of the Rosetta stone in
1893, no discovery in Egypt equals this
in scientific value. The entrance to
the passage is difficult and dangerous,
on account OF the loose blocks that en-
cumber 1t. An American Egyptologist
and correspondent are the only per-
sons allowed to visit the interior with
Maspero. The latter explorer returns
to paris next month, and will publish
the discovered texts. All OF the SAX
kahara pyramids, about sixty in num-
Der, will be opened as soon as possible.

Berlin, May 3.-While the czar re-

implacable enemies of his government
are as dangerously busy as ever. Ru-

by the nihilists, in dissenting manifes-

continue to arrive here. On Sunday
last the police were engaged in search

bridge, though nothing seems to have
been found.
The social and political atmosphere
of st. Petersburg is growing thicker
and thicker, and is fraught with omens

city as gloomy prison house, where
little is heard of the outside world, and
everybody lives in constant state of
painful suspense. The chief journals
still appear in mourning.

A Lecture on the Failure OF Free
Government i'm Americn.
New York, May 3.-Henry George,
of California, lectured at Chickering
hall last night on 1.-The next great
struggle" He was introduced by f.
b. Thurber. In the course of his re-
marks he said: II measure my words
after looking at many things and think
ing of many things. 1t is my opinion
that as it stands to-day, this great
American experiment in free govern
ment is failure. Men of New York,
do you govern yourselves? 1t is mere
ly question as to who will be your
boss. Even judges sit on the judicial
bench who buy their places. Has not
Brooklyn a boss? Look at Philadel-
phia; for years and years she has lain
PROSTATE at the feet of boss. The
same is true of Baltimore and San
Francisco. 1t is not the problem of
municipal government we have to
solve, but of republican govern
ment.''

confidence exists as to the future of the
coming crops.

The Presldent's Letter to Dawes

Washington, May ga reporter of
the western associated press visited the
White House this evening and OBJ
tained the true version Of the presi-
dents letter to Senator Dawes. The
president did not retain copy, but the
note was short. In the first place the
president wrote that he was in favor of
free ballot and fair count, not only in
Virginia, but in every state. and that
he would encourage it, but he would
not assist in elevating man who, as
an editor ofa daily paper, is constantly
attacking and defamipg him and his
administration. This referred to Cor
ham, editor of the National Republi-
can, and the nominee of the republicans
for secretary of the senate.
The above is substantially all the
letter to Dawes contained. In it the
president said nothing about the pend
ing nominations in the senate. On
this subject, however, the president
maintains the same position he took
before the caucus committee. He says
that he sent all Of the nominations to
the senate in good faith; that if the
senate sees ct to pass some of the nom-
nations over, that is the business of
the senate. But the president cannot
countenance any movement or sugges-
tion for selecting certain nominations
for consideration and leaving the others
unacted upon. AS to what the senate
shall do he has nothing to say or sug-
gest. That is for the senate to de-
termine.
