Both sides of the senate Anxious to
Perfect Organization.

WASHINGTON, April s.--The Repubii-
can and Democratic senators have at hast
apparently begun serious efforts TO reach
an understanding upon a basis Of reoT-
ganization Of the senate committees.
The managing committees Of both sides
Of the chamber were in session during the
greater part Of the afternoon today. and
sub-c1sulmittees representing both parties
met in conference tor the exchange Of
propositions, Senators McMillin. Calm
ger and Carter representing the Rspubii-
cans and Senators German, cockrell and
Faulkner the Democrats.
The Democratic conferees outlined the
position OF the Democratic side or The
chamber TO be that the Democrats should
be allowed 70 all the committee places
held by Democrats in the last congress.
The Republicans proposed that che reor-
ganlzarion should take place on the basis
Of percentages. an arrangement which
they admitted would result 81 reducing
the Democratic representation IN the CON-
nittess 20 an average OF one member.
This did not prove an acceptable basis
OF settlement 10 the Democrats. where
upon the Republicans suggested a com
promise again. They called attention 10
the fact that the Republican plurality over
the Democrts was nine nov. wheEeas Il
was Only two at the beginning Of the last
session. This they pointed out, would re-
quire about thirty-ftve more committee
assignments than In 1876. They suggest
ed that the Democrats should make con
eessiors that wosid give the Republicans
a. sufficient increase of places 70 perulit
