WASHINGTON, Dee. 15.-The nomi-
ntion of Secretary Francis as head of
the interior department was referred
to the finance committe, in accordance
with the custom of the senate. Nomi-
nations Of the president for cabinet po-
sitions are usually confirmed very
promptly The nomination of Mr..
Francis was sent to the senate week
ago, and today was the first meeting
of the finance committee since the nom
ination was sent to it. Secretary
Francis will not be confirmed until af-
ter the senatorial election in Missouri.
1t is understood that Senator Vest, a
member Of the finance committee, sug-
gested that the nomination go over
until after the holidays. The opposi-
ton, If such it can be termed, can be
traced to the recent election in which
Secretary Francis supported the gold
Democratic candidates. Considerable
feeling has been engendered, but it is
not believed that the opposition will be
carried so far as to prevent a confrma-
ton.
The committee considered briefly the
bill which passed the house last ses-
sion authorizing the bottling of spirits
In government warehouses. A subc0m-
mittee, consisting Of Senators Aldrich,
Sherman and Jones (Arh.), was ap-
pointed, and will grant hearing to
interested parties Jan. Z.
