Bennison Bros., MONbAY as St. mittec appointed to mnlumnplan of action with regard to the admission of the new democratic senators against whose title some question has been raised. The committee, consisting of Senators Pugh, Blackburn, Harris and Vest, reported that it had care- fully considered all the facts in the cases of Senators Turpic, of Indiana, Faulkner, of West Virginia, and all the other new cratic senators, and reached the conclus that all were fully entiticd 1o their seats. It was unanimonsly rcsolved that the entire list of mocratic scnators were entitled to their scats, and in so far as the democrats could influence the matter, they should be sworn in Monday. It was tho unanimous opinion of the caucus that no de- parture from precedent should be made, and 1o obstacle to the admission of all the sen- ators-clect should be_anticipated. The com- mittee also reported that they had examined all the credentials of the republican senators- clect and found several upsn which objoctions could legitimately be based. The facts were laid before the caucus and_discussed, but the defects being merely technical, they deter- mined to make no objections to their admis- sion. An understanding was reached, how- ever, that should the admission of any demo- be objected to, the party would uct as & unit, according s circumstances might seem to require. It was made known that democrats held the advantage in the fact that Senator Jones, . of Nevada, i8 absent and paired with Senator Hearst, who. begins a new term and is therefore not yet o senator. Upon request, the republican aucus at once assented, as proposeds by Senator Keuna, who has charge of the demo- cratic pairs, to pairing Senator Jones' with some democrat already sworn in, This re- duces tho Voting strength _of each party 1o N nty-four, Senators Beck and Kenna elected respectively chairman and secro- v of the democratic caucusto serve during the coming session.

Reed, of Maine, for speaker, and the nomination was confirmed by ac- clamation. Reed madea brief speech, in which he counselled party harmony and predicted republican victory in the next presidentialt election Nominations for the remaining oftic of the next house were then made as follows: Edinond McPherson, of Pennsy! vania, by Representative Bayne, for clerk; Daniel Shepherd, of Tllinois, by Adams, for at-arms; W.
