had an important bearing on the political
situation, as indicating what attitude the

completed its task In less than half an
hour. Both regulars and insurgents ap-
peared 10 be well satisfied with the results.
and the feeling that the Republicans had
begun the new session auspiciously was
general
In accordance with the agreement reached
by the insurgents and regulars the former
will have full representation on the caucus
committees and the committees OF the
Senate itself. The membership Of the COM
Mite on committees was increased from
nine to twelve. as a result ~ which the in
surgents viii have four instead of three
of the places. The appointments will be
announced on Thursday
The only motion made ov an insurgent
member OF the caucus was that of Senator
Dixon. who proposed that committee he
appointed TO investigate the patronage ~

met no objection On the contrary. the
insurgents were not only 'nade to under
