he had to write letter to silent of his in
a neighboring city regarding an important
lawsuit that was to come up before the

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 5.-There
appears to be disposition in the senate
on the part of the republican members TO
do as little as possible, pending the
change in administration and the possible
change in the organization of the senate
itself. A leading republican senat,r
said to day that outside of the appro-
priation bills there would be little done
"We are not disposed to ignore the sani-
tary legislation and that matter will be
attended to as soon as possible " He
continued: "It would be folly for US to
pass any partisan measures for they
would not go through the house and the
calendar would simI ly be c i'm e ed up
witn mass Of bills that a.i1 never bc
come laws. Looking at the situation
from every point of view, am inclined
to think that We will do as little as We
possibly can"
