C., Nov. 10.—The Repub- lican Senators were in caucus to-duy from 12 odlock until 5, and adjourned imposing the strictest injunction of sccresy upon evers Sen- ator. The very fact that it was thought neces- sary to take much special precautionary meas- ures to keep the proceedings ot the caucus from publicity is construed to indicate tkat the session was a violent one, and that the dellbera- tions were not harmonius. Dispatches of the most sensational character are being based up- on this idea. Takiog the cue from - the alleged interview with Sepator Conkling in the New York Herald of yesterday, similar words are being put in his mouth to-night as having been Teiterated with more deliberation and greater emphasis io the caueus procecedings this after- noon. The statements In thelr general scope are THE MEREST SENSATIONS. It can bestated upon the highest suthority that as to the general results the caucus was entirely harmonious, and that there is more hope to-nignt of perfect unity ip the party and less to fear from threatened rupture than there been at any time since the 4th of March. Whatever differences of opionion theremay have Dbeen before the caucus convened, or may have Deen mauifested pending the caucus, wheao the adjournment was reached therc was unusual zood fecling. All bitterness was forgotten, differcnces were scttled, und the foundation laid for well-considered, deliberate, and harmonious action bereafter. That was TAE SPIRIT OF THE CAUCTS. Of course in 2 session of five hours, with all but four Republican Senators present, it was to be cxpected thatin the first interchange of seu- timente there should be sume manifestation of dissatisfaction with the Administration policy. There was 2 ood deal of animated discussion,— indeed, it became so animated at one time that the speakers were cautioned by the Chairman, Senator Anthony, to speak in morc subdued toues that the discussion might not be heard in theadjoining corridors. As to Mr.Conkling, he referred to'the pretended interview in the New York Herald, which bic characterized as ‘ state- ments purporting to come from him,” which in many particulars were incorrect, and which were to some extent disavowed. THE ACTUAL RESULTS of the cancus arc understood to be briefly these: Tirst, the Republicans agreed to present a solid Iront to the Democracy on all political ques- tions; to vote us a uvit against the Democrats upon all questions relating to administrative or party policy. Sccond, as to contirmations, they decided to stand upon tbe President’s Civil- Service policy, and to decline to confirm in cases ‘where it may be clearly made to appear tnat re- movals have not been made for cause. This is the programing already outlined in these dis- patches. The lntter position was forced by the Conkling men. The champion of the Ad- Iministration was Dawes. The most promicent opponents of the Administration were Conk- ling and Oglesby. The latter is represented as havinz desired to induce the party to MAKE OPEN WAR upon the President. These decisions were not agreed to in the form of a resolution. The res- olution was presented in due form, but no vote was taken upon it. Itis a compact which, de- broken at any moment. Itis a sortof * Sitting- spite the predictionsof party unity, is liable to be Bull? treaty. The absentees were Blaive, Sharon, and Burnside. LATER. It fs by no means certain that, because the Republican Senators were barmonious in their caueus, their unity Indicated a hearts lodorse- ment of the acts of the Administration. On the contrary, one Senator’said to-night that the results, £o fa as he could see, might be sum- ‘marized in the statement that there was entire harmony, but the Republicans gencrally did not. seem to approve of anything that the Adminis- tration had done. This is the view of an ultra- Admiuistration man, and can fairly be taken as the seutiment of the caucus. It is said that no resolution except that of secresy was adopted. CONKI. However faithful the representations of Conk- ling’s views io the New York interviews mav have becn, itis certain that in his speech to-day he spoke in amost courteous and respectful tone of the President. . He did not and does not approve of the Louisiana Commission, although he does approve of the withdrawal of the troops from the Southern States. He does notap- prove of the recognition of Nicholls, and thought thar the President should at Jeast have given Packard official recognition. The question of the New York appolutments was ot considered in the caucus, nor was reference mage to them. The case of Kellogg was con- sidered, and while the four Senators who were not present may possibly feel themselves bound by the caucus decision, it is belicved that the general understanding is that the Republicans will endeavor to seat Kelloas, and not to recog- nize the Louisiana compromize a3 having com- pelled the party to logically seat Spotford, WILL NOT TAKE ISSUE. _ Tothe Western Awnclated Press, WASOINGTON, D. C.. Nov. 10.—The Republic- an members of the Serate held a caucus to-day lasting from_about noon untill after 5 o'clo Tt was very fully attended. The toptes dissuss were the so-called ® Southern policy ” and « Civil-Service policy * _of the Administration, with special reference to the Louisiana contest and sundry nominations before the Comisittee. Opinions were frecly interchanged by nearly all the Scnators, showing that the majonty were not in accord with the views and aciion of the President on the subjects discussed, and that lcss than a majority are disposed to make aoy formal issue with him. Such a course Was not deemed expedient in a party sense, nor called for by pubtic interest under the prescot eir- cumstances. THE ARMY BILL. - NONSENSICAL LEGISLATION. _ Speciat Dispaten t0 The Chicuzo Tribune. WasnIxeTos, D. C., Nov. 10.—The Demo- crats in the House to-day undid their good work of yesterduy upon the Army Appropriation bill. The result was that the bill was left in such an incongruous shape that they did not dare to submit it to a vote in the House, but forced an adjournment. The purpose of this delay is to bave a consultation among the Democrats to attempt to discipline the Texas and a few other members so that they will act in obedicnce -« the party whip aud spur, and to rearrange some fcatures of the bill so that it will not be the inconsistent mockery of legislation it was when presented ta the House from tbe Committce of the Whola to-day. Yesterday by means of a fusion be- tween the Repablicans, the Texas delegation, and two other Democrats, the restrictive feas tures limiting the army to 20,000 men WERE STRICKEN OUT, and a proviso made to leave thearmy ot its present legal standard of 25,000 mep. To-day that restrictive feature was re-embodied in the bill, with 2 modification in the sbape of o sup thrown to the Texus members, which the latter, zealous only for their own section aud uugrate- ful to the Republicans for the aid they had rendered, accepted. The Texas people_con- sented to the moditication of the ariy of 20,000 men upou the coudition that there shall be statioued four full regiments of cavalry, with the companies tilled to 4,000 strong, UPON THE RIO GRANDE BORDER. The House also added a new saction to the bill, which will be a very unwelcome intellizence to 1he oflicers assigned to stall duty. It provides that such ofli shali receive no higher rank ur pay while on that daty tnau the lineal rank and pav belonging to them. This will reduce Can- tains to Licutenants, who, as stail officers, have received the relative rank and full pay of Colonel to their -real rank and emoluments. The reduction of salary will be very great. The amendment was incorporated in toe bill WITHOUT ANY MATERIAL OBJECTION. Gen. Sherman, upon being Injormed of it to- night, sald: * te rizht. The staff is canng up the army. All these exerescences oueht to beeut off. {twon't hurt the army oue particle.’” Thére was a passaze in the debate relative to baving Cabmet otlicers sit as a responsible Min- istry upon the foor to be ready at any time to unswer questions. Gen.” Cox, ol Ohio,advocated this, and reminded the Dem- ocrats that George H. Pendleton recommended it when iu Conzress. Sam Cox, who has re- cently been made responsible for a tinance speech of J. D. Cox, made the point that o Tesponsible Ministry was only possible by the adoption of the British systetn, aud that it was not practicable in_this country. He expressed doudts whether Sceretary Suerman would re- sizn had he a seat as a” Cabines Miaister on the floor, in spite of the vote opon the Sitver bill last Monday. There was ONE NOPEFUL FEATCRE in the day’s debate. The Southern policy for the first time received justitication, and tbe President’s course an_indorsement and encour- agement from_Southern men. In the debate, Mr. tooker, of Mississipoi, one of the most im- placable of the malcoutents, desired to have & Timitation placed uron the use of troops in the States.He scems to have violated the decision of the Democratic caucuses 1 presenting this subject to the House. Houker was immediately MADE THE TARGET OF ATTACK. Gen. Garfield, in a pussage of great force and brilliancy, arraizned the Bourbons for artempting to place 2 shackle on the Government, and showed how well the (woposed amendment wizht preparc the way tp } pew insurrection. Goody, of Virginia, Casey Y ounz, of Tennessee, and Ellis, of’ Luuisiaua, opposed the amendment on tie ground that it w a2 manifestation of distrust towards the President, and that inasmuch as the Adminis- tration, by the withdrawal of troops from the Southern States, bas indicated a confidence iu the prople of the Southern States, the Demo- cratic rnembers of the House should in their turn do nothing to express lack of confidence in Bim. Mr. Reazan, of Texas, ex-Pustmastes- General of the Confederacy, TOOK SIMILAR GROUND. fie maintained that the President is not makg improper iise of the arwy, nd did not wish th President to think it was now the purposc of the Southern people to reopen the Pandora box of political agitation and discussiou. The spirs of nvery coasiderable portivn of the Soutlu then way represented In a sentence of Mr. El «The South hus asked for oeace, and to be trusted, and sball she not trustin returu ol ‘This was THOE ONLY RAY OF LIGUT in the day’s bustaess. It was still significant that none of the Demoerats in the States which the army saved from the hands of the mob last fall bad a word_of approval or commendation for the army. Party discipline, indeed, was so strong that some of them assailed it. Hooker’s amendment, was lost by the somewhat extraordi- Dary vote of ayes 33, navs 137 A THE BUSTED BANKS. A RELIEF BILL. Spectal Dispatch fo The Chi WasHiNGToN, D. C., Nov. 10- has prepared a bill to be presented to Congress forti:e relief of allthe insolvent Chicawo savings banks, otber than the States Savings Institu- tion. The latter will fuliy escape the tax upon the deposits by the decision which the Comunls- sioner of Internal Revenue will undoubtedly make, but the other savings institutions are not upon the same footing, and it will be necessary to o to Congress for their relief. The bill hae been submitted to Senator Davis, who will uu- dertake the charge of it. He desires, howeser, that the depusitors seud petitions bere in aid of thebill. The following is the text of the bill, with the reason assigned for its passage: A Bier for an act to remit taxes on insolvent sav- inus-banks. icted, by tie Se f the Un to and House of Rep- States of 1 t i any Juse 18, 1 ct F Be it en nk shucls has ci Nax been recoynized a4 & B whicn hus made returns 3a i v the Deparuncnt of Iutesnal R o¢ sball become insolvent. th chimed to be due by suc States ot the Lme OF during s be oy 1he Commissioner of nternal Re od and aniated; provuded that uo xuch pe abated except in ro far a3 the coliection taercof would eperate to lessen the Gum seceiveable I the depositors in such b THE, stated as follows: Sec. 3 as gmended by the act of June I provides that savings-banks shull be nually taxed on capital- and ou Aepos $2,000 in any one name, shull be tre 2 on deposits below that limit Lo the case of the insolvency of a savings-bank it naturally ozurs thnat certain taxes have acerued sinee the last pavinent of tax, which acerued tuxes are by well-known printiples of law A FIRST LIEN in favor of the Government 02 all the assets of the insolvent ban Further, it is a fact that certain savings-banks recogmized as such by the laws of their respective States, 23 'which have beretofore a3 such reported S i-Annually to the lnternal Revenue Depart- ment joying the wxemption x on small depostis. as above detailed, on assessed by the Internal Revenue De- partment the sraount of that tax on the ground Phat these savinus banks, although so rucug- nized by thelr respective States, do ot come ithin the purview of the act, and have been enjoying an exemption to which they are not entitled, and certain of these savinus banks have become insoivent.
