FOR ABSOLUTE CONTROL.
REPUBLICAAs DESIRE 70 HE"Vs
LATE COMMITTEE MhMBERSHiP,
And Are Pulling Wires with That End In
yiew-A Combination Made WIN
the Popuiists.

WASHINGTON, March 3O.-The Repub-
leans OF the Senate this morning put into
motion the machinery looking TO the re-
organization OF the Senate, so far as the
committee vacancies are concerned. The
caucus was called for 10 o'clock, and
was promptly attended by almost every
one OF the straight Republicans OF the
body Adjournment was not taken until
1879.
Senator Allison. chairman OF the Caucus
Committee, made an elaborate report. Ia
which he told OF the tronbies which con-
fronted and winch still stood In the way
of the committee. Many conferences had
been had with the Democratic Steering
Committee and at no time were the menu
bers of that committee. and particularly
Mr.. German. its chairman, willing TO ad-
NIT that there was any changed condition
in the Republican party since the Senate
committees had been reorganized by the
Republicans. The Democrats insisted.
said Mr. Allison. that they should have
the same number of members OF the ocm-
mittee as they had under the previous ar
rangements. and declined TO permit the
Republicans to take an additional number
sufficient to out-yote the Silver Republic
cans, who had bolted the st. Louis Con-
vention, and who were now members OF
committees. II they continued with the
Democrats.
Short speeches were made by Senators
Hale. Gallnger, Wolcott, Wilson, ana
others.
The only new member who spoke was
Senator Mason, of Illinois He contended
that the new senators were entitled 10
committee assignments, and that
the effort should be made TO
place them. IL the EFFORT was
futile no blame could be attached TO
the straight Republicans. They would at
least have made an effort. and. more than
that, the new senators could not ask;
that much. however, he said they we're
entitled 10.
Absolute CONTROL.
Mr.. Allison stated that the situation
had been carefully canvassed, and willis
sufficient votes TO pass the necessary reso-
luton were not now In sight, he said that
the committee hoped within very short
time TO be able 70 say that the votes were
at hand that would give the Republicans
the absolute control OF the membership
OF the committees.
Tho result OF the discussion, which was
OF a decidedly varied and somewhat ne
bulous character. was resolution IN
struc,ing Chairman Allison to appoint
a Committee on Comrlttees, which will
assign the Republicans TO the various
committees on the basis insisted upon by
the Republicans. This will at least put
the machinery in motion. and force the
fighting to a finish.
COMBINE WITH POPULISTS.
II is understood that combination has
been made with certain Populists. where
by they are TO vote with the Republicans
| on the question OF reorganization. The
| Populists. who are TO be given good chair
| manshps, are said 10 be Senators Jones
\ (of Nevada. Stewart and Kyle. II Is
| understood that Senator Hoar. OF Massa-
chusetts. oppose such a combination.
and will not agree TO any reorganization
| OF the Populists.
