The Next Congress.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Ex-senator Hawley
said that he had not tae least doubt that the
Republicans had the house. but that he ex-
pected, or rather feared, that the Democrats
would steal it. The situation will remain un-
changed until the certificates are issued. The
most serious aspect OF the affair arises upon
the possibility of the Democrats having O
majority of one or three. 1t is belle we'd that,
feeling as they do now, the Republicans will
not permit the Democrats 60 organize the
next house without resistance There is
even talk of Withdrawing and perfecting an
organization of their own under the circum-
stances. Many Democrats. however, are
disposed 10 regard it as 70 their advantage
10 be in the minority, and are especially op-
posed to any further resistance to the admis
sion OF new stntes into tbe URin;L
