They think it is lessening the sovereignty of their governments and tablishing to a cer- tain extent a suzerainty from Washing ton over them.
 A WASHINGTON dispatch stated that the republican leaders in the house were striving for an early adjourn ment, and unless the senate held them back expected to wind up the business of the session in the early part of May.
