WASHINGTON, March e--The Senate de-
-oted most ~ to-day's session 10 o secret
session, and il is presumed that oehinu
che closed doors the conduct OF the heWs-
paper correspondents in printing secrets
Of the executive sessions was ngs'n us
cussed, rs Senator Dolph and othcr mem
hers of that august body have been greatly
worked up for the past two weeks over
this question. Some OF the senators
want All nominations considered IN
omen sessions. aud there IS resoiu-
tion 20 that effect now pending, ana ~ mas
strength in that body. Inc sentiment OF
the people il also probably In favor OF sueh
q change in the methods, espeeiaiiy as .ne
etar.chamber system OF considering nomi-
nations il unjust 10 men whose names are
before the Senate. Behind closed doors
things are said and done which would %
let alone il the doors were opened.
There Is some talk that the Senate may
finally decide to abolish the press gallery
aud shut the correspondents out entirely.
The cranks in the body even want to deny
the reporters of the regular press ASSOC
CITATIONS any privileges they now enjoy
on the floor Of the Senate. Well, If this
should be done, the senators who rely on
the newspapers for publishing their acts
will get the worst Of the bargain: The pre-
yailing opinion is that the whole busi-
ness viii result in wind. Ihere
has been nothing but wind so far IN
what has been done, and the men noted
for common sense in the Senate are not
taking a hand in this ridiculous perform
ance, and there are several senators who
are themselves largely interested IN news
papers, and il is understood they nave
done some plain talking since this matter
has been under discussion. Senators Bar
bour. Daniel. Vance, and Ransom haven't
had much TO say on the question, and the
belief is expressed that they at least will
vote to prevent the United States Senate
from making itself ridiculous IN what the
star-cbamber cranks are attempting.

O'Dell stepped outdoors and asked, him
what was wanted. Major gave glance

Mr.. Wells dying on the frosty highway.
The old soldier was picked up and taken
