SENATE REORGANIZATION
Proposition Of the Allied Opposition Nay Be
Accepted.
Why the Conmittee of the Republi-
cans Think Such Action Would
Ne Advisable,

While nothing definite was accomplished
at the meeting between the democratic and
the republican committees on committees,
settlement of the question Of reorganiza-
ton CT the Senate win be speedily reac he'd.
This morning the two committees met sep
arately and then met together and ex-
changed propositions. The proposition pre-
sented by the democrats was that which
has already been widely discussed, of per-
mittfng the republicans to retain the chair
nanships as they now are and to fill by
the appointment of republicans all vacan-
cies caused by the retirement of republi-
cans. This gives the democrats, populists
and silver republicans places they had
under the last reorganization and retains
the combined silver forces in substantial
control of the committees, except as to the
more important chairmanships.
The republican committee on committees
is to meet tomorrow to act on the propo-
sition.
The expectation of those who have au-
thority in the matter is that the PROPOSE
ton will be accepted. The reason advanced
by conservative republicans why this ar
rahgement should be agreed to Is that if
there is the iron-bound agreement between
the democrats, populists and silver repub-
lcanS which they ciaim to have then
they will have 1t in their power. If no ar
rangement Is come to with the reoubli-
cans. TO take the matter in their own hands
and to make a complete reorganization.
1t is not deemed desirable to get into a
fight In the Senate over this matter at a
time when 1t will interfere with the tariff
A number Of the republican senators who
al not placed on committees now, or who
are dissatisfied with what they have. are
greatly opposed to entering into the agree
ment. and threaten to make a fight, believ-
ing that better compromise can be cf-
fected. 1t Is understood, however, that the
members of the committee on committees
are satisfied that the proposition before
them is the best they can get

The policy of Secretary Bliss to REIN
state old soldiers who lost their positions
during the last administration wherever
feasible to do Is expected soon to

claim the right to be reinstated under

rule will be followed with regard to these

der trial today was much larger than yes
terday. when the trial opened. At the
MORNINGS session John Robinson, who.
with VIM. Mcgee. found the body of the
murdered woman in the Rroadkiln river,
was recalled for cross-sxalnination. The
most important point favoriny the states
case was then brought out by the defense.
Robinson. In answer to questions, said he
could walk from the spo. where the body
WAS found to Vaoghn's landing. by what Is
known as the Sailors oath. In twenty-five
minutes.
The defense wished to show that, after
one oar OF his boat had been broken, the
man who murdered Mrs. Lewis, or Gordy,
could not have padded the boat hack to
Va!ghn'S landing against the tide with only
one oar. nor could he have tound his way
back by land.
This theory was exploded by the testi-
mony of Robinson. VIM. aIexee cOrrobo-
rated Robinson in every particular.

clans, who made the post morten examina-

SEED DISTRIBUTION.
Secretary Wilson May Return to the
Old System.

There is a strong possibility that the seed
division of the Department of Agriculture
may be reorganized in such a way as TO
have the packages of seed sent out by
Congressmen put up In this city. IL this
Is done IL will give employment to a large
number OF women. as was formerly the
case before Secretary Morton ordered that
the seedmen supplying this material should
put It in packages and send it out from
their establishments.
Secretary Morton took this action be-
cause it was claimed to be more economi-
cal to have the seedmen do the work than
to have 1t done in this city. But Secretary
wilson proposes to make great effort to
procure seed of high quality and rare va
rieties. such as the farmer could not very
readily obtain by purchase.
Speaking to a Star reporter today Mr.
Wilson said that he had not yet had time
to consider this matter carefully.
