Caueus Action-Matthews' Confirma-
tI0n.

Caueus Action-Matthews' Confirma.
tIon.
Washington. May 13.-Only about
half of the republican senators were at
the caucus this morning on account Of
the heat. The best of feeling pre-
vailed. 1t is understood that they will
meet again this afternoon at two
O'Clock. The effort to get Matthews
nomination reconsidered failed, and
three senators informed western press
reporter that no attempt was made in
executive session.
Thermometer 95o.
Mrs. Garfield is not SO well this af-
ternoon.
Sir Edward Thornton officially says
that he will go to Russia.
The senate has confirmed Don A..
Pardee, as circuit judge of the 9Th
judicial district.
1t was ordered when the senate ad-
journed to-day it be to meet on Mon
day next. An executive session fol.
lowed.
The republican caucus this morning
regarding the harmony over contested
nominations, was encouraging, but nc
definite plan was laid down.
The applications for the continuance
of the per cent. bonds at 81 per cent.
are pouring into the treasury, and Sec
retary Window believes the refunding
will be quicklysapd successfully accom-
plished.
The president has nominated Chas,
E. Henry, of Ohio, as United States
marshal for the District of Columbia
Frederick Douglass as recorder of deeds
for the District of Columbia, vice Geo.
A. Sheridan, resigned.
1t is rumored that Teller, who paired
with Sewell, of Alabama, has tele.
graphed Sewell, that he (Sewell) did
wrong in voting for Matthews, as he
(Teller) would have opposed him. Sc.
well, who voted for Matthews under
the information that Teller would have
done so, is expected to move recon.
sideration, and then refrain from vot.
ing for his confirmation, which would
defeat Matthews.

The republicans will not hold another


The republicans will not hold another
caucus until Monday. A majority of
the senators did not agree to the COM
promise. There was a suggestion to
release senators from action previous to
the caucus on the Robertson case, but
it was not pressed. The caucus still
decidedly favors the president. but
shows a disposition to not crowd mat
ters until Robertson's case actually
comes up. The administration sena-
tors hold that the former caucus agreed
to act first on the uncontested nomina-
tions, these being all disposed of, the
caucus should now consider the others.
1t was held that senators should vote
henceforth as they Individually chose.

IxaacIo's Hand Quiet.

Denver, May 13'-The governor to.
day received a telegram from Coz.
Pope, saying that the commanding Of
ficer at Fort Lewis reports that he had
talk with Ignacio on the 4th inst,
who said he knew nothing of the trou-
BILE on the Dolores river, as reported,
and that on the 9th, Ignacio brought
his brother to see him, who stated that
he had just come from Dolores, and
that no outrages had been committed
by the Utes, but lately some Piutes had
quarreled in trade with some whites
near Ute Peak, Utah, and two or three
whites were killed. Ignacio and Me-
rian expressed themselves as on the
most friendly terms, and are indignant
that the trouble should be laid to them.
Dorsey's Attempt TO Conceal the Evil
denee.
Denver, May 13.-The Tribune to-
morrow will contain the following:
Immediately after the expose of the
Dorsey completely in the star route
ring was telegraphed over the country,
attempts were begun to quash the suit.
Yesterday it was successful, and the
letters were surrendered, and Dorsey
paid the money to Wilcox for which the
suit had been brought. The same day
on which the papers were surrendered,
Postmaster General James telegraphed
to Denver for either the letters, certified
copies or photographs of them. The
ringsters probably concluded that they
were safe, but are mistaken, as there
are certified copies in existence, and
they will be used in connection with
the documents in the possession of the
press agent at Portland, Oregon.

THE RIDDLEBERGER BILL.
ITO Readjusters and everybody else
would say" said Mr.. Tucker, ''that this
yRiddleberger bill is delusion." You can't
enforce it and in the face of the constitu
] ton of Virginia and the decisions of the
limited States Supreme Court it is idle tc
think about it. We can talk in Virgins
sabout what we will do and what we wont
lido, but when you come to the U. S
supreme Court you find the whole power
sof the United States to back it. A Read
|juster Court of Appeals being appealed
from would only have it's decision revers
led by the U. s. Supreme Court and that
would end 1t. Saying in the bill that 6
lcoupon holder can't appeal from the coun
3ty court amounts to nothing; the consti
tuition of Virginia says he can appeal ant
THAT ends the matter.
After Mr.. Tucker closed there were
calls for Mr.. Stuart, but he did not re
Ispond, and the meeting adjourned.
