He first brought their whips on his shoulders by
moving the adoption OF his "bluhng' resolution calling
for an immediate investigation Of Tammany Hall de-
partments lie said that the NewYork senators felt
Inundated by the fact that they were ruled by the
interior Of the State: men from Chemung and like
counties governed.
Ahp said senator Fassett. who represents Chemung
County, do you feel Inundated by the fact that a
Chemung County man rules you as the Governor OF

This reply rather upset the composure of Senator
Ives and by way Of diversion he asked Senator Lis
penard stewart the Republican Senator from New
York. how he could tamely submit to being ruled by
the country. Senator Stewart replied with much
dignity and force that he was unaware that
he was oppressed in any way and tina;

TO a coll for Democratic caucus which Is to be held
to morrow night. 1t is understood that the caucus
will choose q Generasslmo, and elect Grand DIVISION
commanders to lead the Democratic forces and also
decide whether or not the minority shall fibustcr
against the adoption Of the proposed new code OF
rules and the consideration and decision OF contested
election cases. some OF the Democrats, 1t seems,
have already reached the conclusion that for so small

the welfare of the party demands that number Of
them shall be reduced 10 the ranks and the rank and
