COMMITTEES COMPLETED
THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS MAKES
Up ITS LIST

Senator Stewart Left or the Ap-
preparations Committee But Put on
Several Other Committees The
Action the Result Of His Selection
by the Democratic Caucus.
WASHINGTON, March 15.-The repub-
lican members Of the Senate went into
caucus this morning at 10 O'Clock for the
purpose OF receiving the report Of Its COM
mittse making the assignment of the mi-
nority chairmanships and the membership
of the various committees. AT noon the
caucus had not finished it's work and when
the Senate was called to order the repub-
lieans entered the chamber without being
ready to report. Something Of a contest
was manifested when it came to filling the
vacancy on the committee on nppTopria-
tiOns.
After the caucus reassembled there was q
debate of some length on the sub iect OF the
removal of Senator Stewart of Nevada
from the appropriations commi ttee. Sena-
tor Stewart found one or two champions,
but the caucus was practically unanimous
in the opinion that iuasmuch as Senator
Stewart had been the recipient of a CHAIR
manship at the hands OF the majority he
should not be permitted 90 remain on the
important committee of appropriations as
a representative of the minority. He was
therefore removed and Senator Teller of
Colorado was substituted in his place. So
