IN THE KANSAS PACIFIC MATTER
Washington. Dec. 1o-Attorney- General McKenna
already has taken steps looking to the postpone

resolution he telegraphed its substance TO exGov-
ernor Hoady special counsel. at New York. with a
request that he prepare at once a motion asking

graphed 10 the President synopsis OF the resou-
ton. Mir. McKenna had heard nothing OF the re

claim would he say what would be done In
such an offer made before the motion for

ooubt that this offer. II Il had been made before the
adoption Of the Senate resolution. would have been
accepted. 1t may be- Il Is said, that the President
will consider himself bound. In courtesy 10 the
Senate TO ask, for a postponement Irrespective OF
any offer that might now be made or he might
ascertain the views Of the leaders In Congress on
the acceptance Of bid OF $.JO30c. should II be
made and act accordingly.
The Attorney General to-day expressed no doubt
that a postponemen. would be granted BY the Court
upon the showing the Government would be able to
make In addition to the potent reason that the
Senate had requested this action, there was an
other, ne said. Of little less importance. Re-
sponsibe persons outside OF the Reorganization
Committee were taking interest In the
Kansas Pacific road with a view, no doubt. OF be-
coming bidders II their Investigations warranted
such step Who these persons were the At.

things considered ne thought the reasons for a

preparations for presenting the question to the

Hoady was requested by the Attorney General to
confer with the committee on this point and report
any conclusions reached.
Representative Powers OF Vermont. chairman Of
the House Committee on Pacific Railways. said to-
day that there was not likely TO be any strong op-

The Kansas Pacific Railroad. The subject Will be

caI views In one comprehensive bill. but TO cover
sneciaI subjects In a number OF special bills some
OF which would go before the House Committee on

tary 10 present bill covering all the phases OF
financial reform suggested In his recent recommen-
dalton to Congress- and the desire OF members OK
the committee was to treat the subject az an en-
tirety For that reason there was considerable
comment when It was reported that Mr. Gage
would divide the subject into several bills. some
of which would go before the Ways and Means
Committee
1t was this last feature which occasioned the live
licst comment owing to the sharp contest between
the Ways and Means Committee and the Banking
and Currency Committee to control Legislation
designed to bring about currency reform. This feel
ing found expression on tho floor OF tho House the
second day Of the session, and after a sprited ui'
between Mr. Dingey and Mr.. Walker the matter
was compromised. The Walker committee ieit tha'

request to the Secretary. As result OF ths inter
y1ew 1t became generally understood about the
House that the Secretary would not comply win

said that he could not say what the Secretary
