MANSFIELD, o., July l2,-The whole

REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.

Senators Decide that No silver Legislation
Can BE Enacted This Session.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 21.-The postponed
Republican senatorial caucus, which was
called to meet tonight at the residence Of
Senator Sherman, was somewhat disap-
pointing to the Senators who had been IN
strumental In having 1t called. because 1t
failed to secure the attendance of
quorum. Consequently the gathering par.
took rather of the nature Of an informal
conference than or q represen tative caucus.
If there has been any serious intention
of pressing the silver repeal question to an
Issue that intention speedily disappeared
under the discouraging circumst ances ant.
after Q brief expression of individual views
on the subject. it became evident that no
agreement could be reached that could by
any possibility secure the adhesion OF oil
or nearly all of the Repu bile on Senators.
So the subject was dropped by mutual con-
sent. and it WAS made appa- ent the ques-
ton of silver repeal will not be made q
party issue during the remainder of this
Congress.
In view of the small attendance the Sem
ators present contented themselves with
endeavorinR to arrange an order OF busi-
ness to be taken up in the Senate when the
anti-OptIon bill shall have been disposed
of. Under the circumstances 1t was agreed
that nothing should be placed in this order
that promised to give rise TO any cODtrO-
versy within the party lines. Under this
arrangement il was decided that aside
from appropriation bills. one of the first
matters to be brought to the front should
be the bill opening the Cherokee Strip TO
settlement and reimbursing the Indians for
the lands taken; a measure involving an
expenditure of about eight million dollars.
Next in order will he some of the measures
that have been OF Will be reported by the
committee on interstate commerce to cor.
rect defects In the law made manifest 10y
recent judicial decisions. Further than
that no definite arrangement was
made. The subject of passing some of
the statehood bills was broscbed by Ger.
tain Northwestern Senators who have
been urgent in that respect heretofore, but
as these measures appeared to encounter
some opposition from conservative Eastern
Senators. and thereby fall within the line
of subjects likely to develop a difference
of opinion, 10 was resolved to deal! with
them at another and more formal caucus.

dent and Vice. president ought to be in the
hands of the President of the Senate by
Monday next AS matter of fact four
teen States have failed so far to comply
with the law by sending on their electoral
certificates by messenger. and many of
those States which have complied with
the law have done so in so slipshod
manner that If the late election
had been in any way close the
official ascertainment of the result under
the Constitution and laws might have
been made almost impossible and the whole
government might have been thrown in
chaos. One of the first things to be noted
lie that many of the messengers rurporting
to bring on the action OF the States have
come utterly unprovided with credentials
Kansas was one of the most conspicuous
offenders in this respect. The Populist
delegated to bring on the vote of the State
was presented to the President of
