The Senatorial Caucus.

The republican Senatorial caucus last
night was attended by about thirty mem
bars. Senator Sherman presided, and was
made the official medium of communication
to the press. His statement was that the
caucus had determined to fix the hour of
meeting of the Senate after to-day and until
further ordered at 10 O'Clock, and continue
the sessions as long 80 possible. no hour for
&C ournment being fixed, the tariff bill alone
to be considered for several days then dit
placed for a time at least by the river and
harbor bill. From Senators it was learned
that the object OF this policy is to
endeavor to force the democrats to show
their purpose toward the bill. whether or
not it is to be enc of delay. The repub'i-
cans hope by this movement to tire out the
democrats, who are to be left to do all tho
talking, except when it is considered neces-
sary to answer come point made In speech
on that side. The only other measure to
be considered Is the appropriation
bills. The river aud haIbor bill may
be taken up before the olose of this week,
should Senator Frye, chairman of the ooU-
mIttee on commerce, who will be in charge
of thu measure, consider That it Is best to
DO 80. The same policy will be observed
ssith reepect to thes bill az towards
the tariff bill-the democrats will be
permitted to 90 most Of the ticking. Ac-
cordipg 10 al reports. the election bill as
