Mr.. Edmunds and the Senate Presidency.
Special to the New York World.
1t is understood that Mr.. Edmunds is to take
an aggressive attitude in the coming debates of
the Senate, and that this lies at the bot
tom OF his wish not to be president of the
Senate, that he may lead the Republican ad-
vance in denouncing Objectionable appointments.
Mr. Edmunds will not direct his energies against
real civiservice REFORM but against the humbug
reform which he thinks has been conspicuous in
q number of appointments. 1t is said the Sena-
tor has been storing up good deal OF informa-
ton during the summer and that he will pass In
caustic review some of the personal appoint

He Is delighted with the appointment of Dark

stated that a Democratic member OF
Council was receiving over $40 year.
The Times said 1t was not true nor any
thing like true. We went to the record
and proved our assertion true. We
then stated that Democratic mem Der
drew 5000 cents for April. the Times
did not deny this, but stated that Re-
publican member of the present Coun-
Gil drew $40 more in the same time
We went to the record again and
proved that the Times was mistaken 4
the small error of S26. The Times Then
intimated that 1t did no. mean for the
month OF April, but ever since last
July. We have not had q chance TO
search the record since, but will leave
it to an indiscriminating public I, de-
eide if it is worth while going farther
to secure a third conviction.
