 RECESS APPOINTMENT

A special dispatch to The Re publican last evening says the indications in Washington are that no action will be taken at this session of congress by the senate on the confirmation of Richard E. Sloan as federal judge for the district of Arizona.
 Tn that case, v the dispatch con- tinues. Sloan will be reappoint- ed as soon as congress adjourns. :"
