A SECRET MEETING.
Democratic Senate steering Committee

Democratic Senate steering Committee
Holds a session to Discuss Party flans.
WASHINGTON, Nov. "a. The fact has
transpired that the democratic steer
ing committee Of the senate held q
meeting in this city Of three hours
duration on Wednesday last The
members who we're present are very
reticent as to what occurred, but 1T is
known thorough canvas was made Of
the democratic situation with view
to deciding upon line OF policy in
the next session. The question Of the
organization of the senate was dis
cussed at length, The committee did
not reach final conclusion on this
matter, but when it adjourned there
was a general understanding that
unless future events should
make change desirable the
committee will recommend to
the democrats in the senate
to make no move whatever until the
republicans and populists shall develop
their plans 1t appeared from the dis.
cussion that the democratic senators
are divided as to the policy to pursue,
some advocating an active effort to re-
tain democratic control Of the senate,
while Others advise surrender to the
republicans without struggle. The
steering committee finally concluded
1t would be wise to wait until it was
made plain whether the republicans
would be q unit in their desire to take
control, and whether the populists
would hold together or some of them
would agree to assist the republicans
