Gromer's Declaration.

CAIRO, Jan. 5.-VscOunt Cromer British
diplomatic agent in Egypt and General Lord
Kitchener, the sirdar, have held a reception
to Sudanese sheil1hs and notables at the sff-
dar's house at Omdurman Lord Cromer,
in the course of long address to the
sheikhs pointed to the British and Egyp-
tan flags floating together near by and said:
For the future you will be governed by
the Queen and the Khedive. The sole rep
resentative in the Sudan of the two govern
ments will be the sirdar in whom both the
Queen and the Khedive have the fullest con-
fidence No attempt will be made to govern
the country from Cairo, still less from Lon
dom" Then announcing that they must look
to the sirdar alone for good government,
Lord Cromer promised them perfect re-
ligious freedom, and in reply to a sheikhs
question assured them that the Moslem sa-
cred law would be applied He also declared
that taxation would be moderate and just.
LONDON, Jan. 6.-The Times, comment
ing editorially this morning upon Lord
Cromer's declarations, says: ''They consti-
tute the planest assertion of British SOW
ereign rights in the Sudan yet made"
The Daily Chronicle says: 1.-THE speech
means a protectorate and will be so inter-
preted on the continent"
The Standard says: "Ofense will perhaps
be taken at Constantinople at the conspicu-
Gus omission of the Sultan's name, but it
would be sheer perversity to complcate mat
ters by a formal recognition of an intu-
ence which has forever ceased to nave any
validity in fact or moral right.

THE SENATORIAL Caucus.
Next Tuesday Evening Is the Time
Agreed On.

Agreed On.
The House will caucus this morning i'm
mediately after adjournment, in Room 112
of the Statehouse. This caucus is called to
take action on the report of the House por-
ton of the joint caucus committee, which
met yesterday morning to fix the time for
the senatorial caucus. The joint committee
agreed on Tuesday evening next, at $50, but
under the instructions given by the House
caucus its committee will have to report
back and have the date and time approved
by the full House caucus. For that pur-
pose the meeting has been called for this
morning, but no objection to the time is an
ticipated.
Senator Gilbert yesterday moved that the
representatives of the metropolitan papers
and of the Associated Press be admitted to
the senatorial caucus. The motion caused
much discussion. 1t was opposed by some,
who said they would favor admitting repre-
sentatives of the Republican papers, be-
cause, in a measure, the caucus was fam
lily matter. The committee finally decided
that it was not within it's province to take
action on the question, and that it should
be determined by the joint caucus.
