The universal belief in both republi.

clspaf"h received by The News Friday
nom Washington, is that the republican
senate will refuse absolutely to con-
firm any nominations whatsoever made
by President Wilson before he retires

ton of Clinton Mcclellan brother OF
Senator Mcclellan, for postmaster at
Memphis
The only exception which is even
probable, in the opinion of political
wiseacres at Washington, is the con-
Judge for West Tennessee. There is a
chance that Garrett may be confirmed
