Senators Morgan and Pettus will probably remain here during the holidays. however, and possibly there will be nothing in the way of acting on the Alabama nominations tomorrow.
 As for the nomination of MT. Re sse, there is no fear that he will be turned down by the Senate. The charges against him which are now being inves- tigated, are thought to be of trtval na- ture or at leaJt of trival originh 1.
