WASHINGTON, D. O., Dec. Ex-senator
Faulkner introduced resolution to.
day calling upon the Superintendent OF
the Census 10 furnish tho Senate with
the population OF the State OF West vir.
einia by counties, on which no based
the population OF tho whole State in the
recent official bulletin Issued from the
Census Bureau. Senator Cockrill init.
mated that ho wanted the samo intor.
nation for Missouri, aud he presumed
senators from other States wanted it for
their respective States. MIR. Hale oh.
leCted to the imnlediate consideration OF
the resolution, and under tho rule 1t
went over until tomorrow. Mr.. Faux
ner explained that he had been to the
Census Bureau three or four times 10
obtain the population of his State by
counties, G1 1t was necessary to have il
ior tho State Legislature, which will
meet next month, 80 that that body cain
properly rediStrict the State for Con-
sresGional aud Legislative represnnta.
l0n. lie had been told at the Census
Bureau that the population by counties
could not be furnished, az it was only
completed "in the rough" and was not
accurate enough 10 give out officially.
MIR. Faulkner says he cauno. under
stand why the aggregate result OF the
census for the whole State can be ar.
rived at without knowing the popula-
ton OF each county. The population OF
one county cannot bs changed without
affecting the aggregate for the State, and
no cannot understand by what process

tho entire State can be arrived at with.

tunts in each county,

In view Of the Postmaster Generals

calls attention to the fact that tho usual

says: The Commission Is somewhat
surprised by the statement in tho report
OF the Postmaster General that the pro.
portion OF railway mail eligihles who fail

In other words, instead OF onc.third,

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 29.-From
the Post: An intimate Senatorial friend
OF Vice President Morton said to-day
that the latter had not yet made up his
mind to the course OF action be would
pursue when the fight over the cloture
rule really BEGAN. He is, however, just
now au earnest student Of precedents.
The Vice President" said this sena.
tor, "is in hopes that the Republicans
will hold another Caucus and decide
definitely upon the course OF action
they desire to pursue, and the
part which they expect the pre-.
siding olhcer to play in their
programme. Whether Mr.. Morton will
consent to follow the caucus dic,ation is
another matter, and he has thus far
given no evidence OF his intention to Go
80. While he is n Republican, he
realizes that he is Vice President
OF the whole country, and is not
bound to ST. bmit or even agree with the
results OF Republican caucus. Neither
does he feel called opon to lower his
dlsnlty BY stopping down from the
chair, aud he will certainly not find il
convenient to take a trip to Florida, as
1t has been suggested he might do"
