THE PARTY CAUCUSES
Republicans to Attempt to Re-
organize the Senate.
FRYE FOR PRESIDENT PRO TEN.
Cummings to Be President of the DEM
ocratic Caucus - The Slate for
House Officers.

Washington City. Nov. 29.-There is
growing possibility that the Republicans
at their caucus next Monday Will decide
to attempt 10 reorganiZe the senate on
Republican lines, and that a candidate
for president pro TEN. will then be decid-
ed upon. Quite a number of Republican
senators, including three or four from
the steering committee, were at the cap
itol today. and informal exchange of
views among them resulted in the general
adoption of this conclusion. There is
difference of opinion as TO the wisdom of
attempting more than the election OF
presiding officer In the beginning, but the
preponderance of opinion is that action
a that time viii be confined TO this. IL
the Republican candidate succeeds in this
contest, the Republicans viii then place
candidates in the field for the other elec-
tive offices.
So far Senator Fryes name is the only
one heard in connection with the office OF
president pro tenn. but there are several
aspirants for the other Offices. Among
those who are spoken of as secretary OF
the senate are G.. c. Gorham, who for
merly held this Office: Mr.. Durfee, who
was for many years clerk of the senate
committee on finance. and George Bar
her, OF Kentucky. For sergeant-at~arms.
+. X. Valentine, of Nebraska. exser-
geant-at-arms: Capt. Curtis. of New
Hampshire; Mai Grant, of North Caro-
lina> and \. J. Shaw. of Spokane, are al
ready named.

Of New York. for the honor
Ohio and Indiana have declared for Me-
Dowell and Glenn for clerk and door
keeper respectively OF the house. There is
now practically no doubt of the election
OF Representative Mcdowell as clerk,
although Gen. Henderson, of Illinois, says
he is stin in the race. An effort is being
made 10 obtain Gen. Henderson's consent
70 transfer his candidacy 10 a contest for
sergeant-at-arms but he has not yet con-
sented, and Il is bitterly opposed by the
friends of Mr.. Russell. The slate for

dren, hiding them in fields of grain and
among the rocks in the mountains"
The returning missionaries say ii was
hard TO pick specific instances out of such
an inferno of cruelty, but mentioned the
following: THE soldiers would toss chill
dren up into the air and catch them on
their bayouets when they came down. At
other times they would stand a number of
children in row. Each Turk would take
a child by the hair. and they would see
which one could cut his victims head off
the quickest. When Tahsin Pasha start
ed ont on his mission of butchery he took
along with him large quantity of kero-
sine oil for the purpose Of removing by
fire all veStiges of the dreadful work
which .he contemplated This oil was
afterward used TO saturate the clothes of
living beings, and the match would be APP
piled"
AT this point Miss Charlotte remarked
II saw one boy with the whole side of
his face burned away. He told me he had
been attacked by the Turks and then
thrown on a heap OF Goals, being left for
dead"
Miss Ely was asked about the treat
ment of Armenian women by the soldiers
THE violation of women and girls by the
Turks was one OF the commonest and one
of the worst features of the whole hor-
