cations are that considerable progress will

HAIR-SPLITTING ART.
Opinion of Senators on the Question of
Recess.

There are now two questions calculated
to puzzle lovers of knotty problems. One
Is How old is Ann?'' and the other is
whether or not there has been a recess of
Congress from the time the extraordinary
ssion ceased 10 eXis until the new sess on
was born.
In the Senate today there was almost a
unanimous opinion 10 the effect that there
no recess in any sense that could be
construed to permit the making of recess
appointments. Senator Lodge was outspok-
en in his belief that there was 'consiruc-
lively a recess, even though it be of In
intestinal time, but rule senators did
not accept this view.
The idea that a recess could be construed
from infinitesmal quantity of time be-
tween the ending of one Congress and the
beginning of another. which In fact were
continuous. was generally rdiculed and re-
garded as a metaphysical problem not for
practical men to discuss. This knotty
question looked as if it might have a ve;y
important side 10 it this morning, and sem
stors were discussing in way as to their
action, if any. in relation to the matter.
1t was an open questions with many of
them what should be done if the President
should send list of recess nominations.
The nominations that did come soon as
the new session had met were marked
merely nominations.
a second list of nomna atoms were of 167
army officers, among whom was Gen.
Wood. This list was merely preceded by
the statement II nominate the officers
herein for appointment in the army of the
United States" No reference was made to
any recess nominations
The opinion prevails at the Senate that
General Wood is now ''brgadier general"
and will be such in both rank and pay I'M
til his domination has been confirmed. Upon
the confirmation of his nomination as a
major general. however. his pay as such
will be available from today so that there

His nomination and those of other officers
who failed of action in the extra session,
were sent to the Senate as having been
commissioned August and subsequent
days. The Senate clerks have found that
there are no complications regarding these
army nominations for precedents show that
no matter when army and navy appoint
ment are confirmed they are commissioned

Judge Kohlsaat Refuses to Establish
Precedent.

CHICAGO. December declaring tha'
he did not wish to set precedent WHICH
would have to be followed In other cases.
Judge Kohlsaat. in the United States ans
trict court today refused to direct the petl-
tioning creditors in the Dowie bankruptcy
case to furnish an indemnifying bond
such a bond,' said Judge kohlsaat, IS
returned only as protection to the alieseo
bankrupt The case in question seems W
be a novel proposition wherein the aHeseo
bankrupt does not appear but some credit-
ors are acting for him. Even If Dr. Do"le
were proved solvent do not see what REM
edy there would be for the creditors, unleSs
the alleged bankrupt sought to sue on sucn
a bond Dr. Dowe is the one VINO might
suffer injury, and l think he should De the
person to demand such bond.
While thus indicating his opinion, Judse
Kohlsaat asked the creditors to submit pc
fore Wednesday briefs in support OF incl,
contention. The original petitioners WIN
also file brief, and 1t Is expected tha' d
contest will ensue before the court acts on
the matter.
