DEMUCRATIC PROGIAM, Spectal Dlpatch fo The Chicago Tribune, WAsHINGTON, D, C., March 15,—Although sev- eral Democratic Senators have asserted in des bate or privately that thoy would pairin nd- vance with tho Maine or Minnesota Senator, and thus permit an organizatlon of the Com- mittees, tho Bourbon elowment opposes any steps that wiil hasten an abandonment of power and of patronage. Should they porsist in this course, the Republicuns Bewators can do nothing before Fridny, when tho two new Sen- ators will probably have arrived and be sworn in. Senator Anthony, ne tho Chairman of the Republican caucus, will then offer a list of Com= mitteemen, a8 & substitute to that of the Demo- crats offered by Pendleton. On this thore wiil ban tie vote,~37 ayes agalnst 37 nays,—and Vice-fresident Arthur will give his . cast- iog . vote In the afirmative.

Otbers, dotermined to die in tho Inst ditch, intimato that thoy : PROPOSE TO DISPUTE THE POWER OF TUE VICE-PRESIDENT to declde, by his casting vote, the formation of committees, but tho Ropublicans can quote numerous procedents, and polat to the constis tutional proviaion (*That tho Vice-Presldent suntl inve no voto unloss the Sonate {8 equally « divided”) as containiog no limitation. So tbo Republicans will wait patieatly until tho now Senators come, ‘The Democrats are piauning numerous means of ayulding the easting vote of the Vico-Presi- dent, in order to prevont the Republicans from recovering control at tho~Sonate. It s sug- gested, for instunce, that thoy do not voto for the Committces ns a whole, but that three or four Democrats presont different vames for cortiin Chairmanships, This would not mako o tie, and the Vice-Presldent would not have a casting vote, and the Senuto would be at a dead-fock, Some Republicans think it podsiblo thint they .
