York appointments which were confirmed
by the senate were sent in on Dec. ", and
the fact that they have been held up so
long without action has occasioned some
comment. All five Of the nominations
were In the hands Of the committee on
commerce. Of which Senator Murphy is a
member, and they were naturally referred
to him because of the fact that he repre-
sented the state from which they were
made. He IS understood 70 have held the
nominations before making a report un-
til he and Mr.. Hill could make investi-
cations concerning the appointees. Hav-
ing made these, they agreed that the nomi-
nations should 90 tothe senate, where they
were acted upon. The same explanation
applies in the case Of Mr.. Poucher, who
was confirmed as district attorney on Mon
day. That nomination was in the hands OF
Mr.. Hill as a member Of the judiciary com
mittee.

A New-FoUND JOY.

The Joyous acclaim with which the
annexationists. the apologists for the
ilngosm Of the late administration, and
the curious lot Of personal enemies Of
President Cleveland have received the
asst straw, as It were Of Chairman Nor
gan's single-handed report on the

any floating comfort, no matter how
rough the seas, how slight the support,
how hopeless the prospect Of rescue.
The Philadelphia Press says:

the mutual concession is happy issue

Of the senate spent "A large part OF the Gay
in caucus. The proceedings were not mark
ed by many interesting incidents, and the
discussion was more of the character Of ar
gument in favor of the interests which the
various senators particularly represented.
Senators Vest, Brice and White made
speeches. In order that all senators might
have an opportunity to say something the
roll was called by states, and nearly every
man in the senate had an opportunity to
express his views. Some of the states asked
TO be passed over, Senator White of Cali
fornia, the Alabama senators and Senator
German reserving themselves for today,
when it is expected that they will close the
general debate.
The programme then is that the bill
shall be gone over 10y schedules and the
finance committee instructed by sugges
tion or votes of the caucus as TO what
changes shall be made. That was the un.
derstanding when the caucus adjourned
though il may be upset and some new pro
eramme sprung after the closing speeches.
The general tone Of the caucus was
against trusts, and several statements Ia.
