graphic message this morning from the

WARRINGTON, Jan. 26.-For the first
time this session there was a protracted
Struggle In the executive session of the
Senate over Presidential nomination
that OF Louis McComas, ex.secretary of
the National Republican committee, to
be associate justice of the District OF
Columbia supreme court Within a few
days after the reception of tho nominn.
ton the opposition to the confirmatio
began to develop in the shape OF what
was more Or less vague charges touching
the business integrity Of the nominee.
The Judiciary committee sifted each
OF these and declared in it's report to
the Senate that in its judgment there
was nothing that in any way tended to
show that Mr.. McComas was not fitted
for the place to which the President
proposed to appoint him. The opoosi-
ton was then transferred from the out
side to the Senate chamber itself.
Yesterday at o'clock the Senate went
into executive session with determine.
ton on the part of the Republican Sena-
tors to confirm tho nomination before
adjournment. The case was in charge
OF Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, who, in
behalf Of the Judiciary committee,
moved that the nomination be con-
firmed.
The opposition, however, desired to
be heard, and was heard at length.
More than four hours were consumed in
the debate. The opposition to the nomi-
nee in the Senate was based almost en-
tirely upon the ground that Mr. McCo-
mas was not resident of tho District.
The Republicans replied to the Demo.
Gratis on this point by referring to the
precedents set by Mr.. Cleveland in his
District and Territorial appointments,
and asserted that Mr.. Cleveland might
feel disposed to again ignore platform
declarations in that respect aud select
the best'htted man for federal appoint.
ments regardless OF residence.
When it came to q vote there was no
attempt to iilibuster and the result was
decisive, the vote standing IS for con-
firmation to IS for the opposition. Be-
cause of the failure to adopt the usual
resolution notifying the President of
the confirmation, the result was not
formally announced at the conclusion
of the session.
Judge MoComas received all the Re-
publican and half the Democratic vote.
lie was principally opposed because
vice President-elect Stevenson had not
been confirmed by Republican Senate
four years ago, after Cleveland's defeat.
1t was also urged that this would be
precedent for Senator Lamar's sue
cessor.
The Senate in executive session also
confirmed the nomination of Elijah w.
Haiford to be- major and paymaster in
the United States army.
