EDMuNps, DESIGNATION
The Belief That It May be Looked for
Very Generally Entertained.

WASHINGTON. March 2S.-Ths belief
that Senator Ednlunds will resign before
congress meets again. on account of his own
health, and the health of his wife aud
daughter, which demand prolonged travel
and residence in Europe. Is very generally
entertained by senators and, as was stated
in these dispatches. afforded to them the
only reason for thinking that Secretary
Proctor might resign. Apart from the
fact that Senator Edmunds has Rented his
new residence on Massachusetts avenue for
two years 70 Senator Washburn OF Mime

Questioned have very little TO offer by way
OF foundation for their belief,
... HoAR's HINT.
No one Of them, apparently, has heard
Senator Edmunds say that he would resign.
He is thought, however, to have said some
thing about 10 to Senator Hoar The latter
remarked, 1.-THE caucus, whea he had been
elected president pro tenn. over Senators
Frye and Hoar: "Neli, It is just as WELL
should probably have had to resign the
presidency pro tenn. before long, From this
it was inferred that Senator hoar expected
Senator ~Edmunds TO retire, and then ex-
pected to succeed him as chairman of tue
judiciary committee. Although. Senator
EdmuudsIs far from being old, be has aged
greatly within the last few years. He has
never taken tho sameN interest
in public affairs or in the
business of the Senate since
It became apparent that he could never be
nominated for the presidency. His absence
from the Senate chamber became so marked
during the last congress that It was alluded
to in debate. As matter of fact he spent
two-thirds of his time when at the capito
in his committee room.
