Washington, March 26.-The senate
spent considerable time in executive ses-
sion today IN the consideration Of the
status OF the committees in which Va
cancies exist The discussion arose over
point OF order made by Senator Allen
against a report which the postoffice
committee attempted to make, favorable
to the confirmation OF Honora bic Joseph
J.. Bristow as fourth assistant postmas-
ter general. Attention was called in this

sertaticn If they were TO continue TO be
held responsible for the conduct OF the
committees, while the Democrats held
out for the privilege of filing the va
cancies caused by the retirement of Dem
ocratic senators. Senator Cannon stated
the position OF the Silver Republicans
TO be favorable 10 a coalition OF all the
silver supporters in the senate for the
organization of the body on a silver ba-
SIS, but ne said they did not desire TO
make this attempt until after the passage
of the tariff bill because of differences
on that question. The subjects was drop
