Will PETER be Ignored?

Washington, Dec. 10.-Senator
PETER Of Kansas was the subject of
an animated discussion in the DEM
ocratic senatorial caucus here yes
terday. He had written letter to
the chairman of the caucus which,
while not fully committing himself
to act with the democratic party,
pleaded for considerate treatment,
particularly in the matter of com.
mittee assignments. The letter was
read and did not appear to attract
much notice until one of the new
senators arose and went for Mr.,
PETER in some caustic remarks.
He was denounced roundly 70,
some Of his anti-democratic speeches
The result was that the communica.
tion was virtually laid on the table
at least until there is time for Mr.
PETER to define his status more ex
plicitly.

the appropriation made by the leg

proper exhibit of Missouri's re-

aside by the legislature for Missou-
