The democratic caucus remained In ession but fifteen minutes. Tile dom- cratio members coming on are com- nittcd by the action of their caucuses > insisting on the election of a prrsi- ont pro torn : IB soon as the senate is onvoned. The republicans declined o'confor on that basis , and nothing us done. FKOM A UKPtniLICAN STANIU'OINT. WASHINGTON , October 8. Af tor lie adjournment of the republican aucus its chairman , Senator Anthony , uririshcd the following to the press as 10 presentation of tlio case from a epublicnn stand point : "Bothrepub- can and democratic senators met at 1 o'clock this morning , Senators An- tiony and Pendlcton presiding. li aving been understood that soverul emocratic senators had manifested a illingnosa to confer with the ropub- .cans , the latter Appointed a commit- no , consisting of Senators Edmunds , herman , Allison , McMillan and Lo an to confer witlrsF'sirmlar ' commit- ee of democrats upon the or- anizatiou of the senate. This pns commuicatcd 'to the demo- rats , whereupon the latter ap- ointed Fendloton , Plight Garland , Davis and Yoorhees. The committees met and the republicans wore inform- d that before receiving notice of a cairo for a conference the democrats ad determined that under existing ircumstanccs the democrats would lecc a president pro tern of the son- to and that the democratic committee ere not authorized to confer with the epublicans on the subject. As this ecision covered the most important oint upon which the conference was csircd , the republican conferees ithdrew , and upon their report of ho facts the republican caucus ud- ournod to moot at 10 o'clock a. m. londay. " It has been well known that , as a esult of iufoimal conversations with romii'ent senators of both parties oth caucuses wore called to meet at lie same hour Saturday for the ex- ress purpose ot consultation. Anide rom the action related in the forego- the republicans unanimously greed to cast their voteo for Senator Anthony for president pro tern. Var- ous mattotH were discussed , but no tlior definite action was taken. Later Ilia evening it was learned that tlio opublicans had determined to enter a retest against the action of the omocrats in refusing a confor- nco on the subject of thu residency pro tern , No extended libustoring is expected but there will ortainly be one or moro republican peukora when the matter comes be- ore the senate. Prye , of Maine , is allied of as the principal speaker , 'he object seems to bo particularly or the party to go on record as pro- csting against alleged arbitrary soiz- urn by thu democrats of only a chance , or a possible succession to the presi- loncy which , the republicans claim , ightfully belong to themselves. As ar as can bo learned the Republicans 0'0t no further than the dis- ussiou of the question of the residency pro torn. The matter ofiSecrotary is loft for Monday's caucus. The understanding is that ho democralH will make no move to wards completing the reorganization. L'ho republicans may call for another conference towards the adjustment of ho rest of the senate , but much will depend on how the protest against the irst name offered is received. Ac cording to the democrats no attempt will bo made to interfere with the reg ular swearing in of three now repub lican senators-elect , unless the republicans licans decide to filibuster against thu election of Bayard. In that cane Warner Miller's .case will probably o thrown into the committee on priv ileges and elections. A IIIIIKP HEHSION. That the republicans dp not now intend to prolong the session is uvi dent. Senator Anthony and Allisoi both said to-night that they cxpocto ( the session would not last a week The object of the meeting Monda ; morning is to BOO ull democrats or a least enough to elect u president pr torn. torn.Senator Senator Fair is not expected thi session. Ho hus paired with Scnuto IMatt , of Connecticut. All olhora ar expected to be hero in their seats. I is probable that the democrats will not take any stops in regard to the election of a secretary before Decem ber , unless a movement in that di rection is inaugurated by the republi cans , but nllow Qhi f Clerk Khnb : : to perform tliounctions / of that ollico. CAUINET MEETING TUESDAY. Members of the cabinet not al ready here are expected to-morrow morning. The first cabinet moot ing with the president occuts at Senator Jones' residence Tuesday. UAI1INET HUMORS. Humor lias it that this will bo the last assemblage of President Gar- fiold's cabinet ; that Secretary Windpm at least will ask that his resignation > o accepted forthwith. Other do- > arlurcs nro not improbable. Noth- ng is heard to-day about ConkJing's trobablo accession to the treasury Portfolio , though it is generally ad- nittcd that sonio ono must be chosen or the place soon. Secretary Win- dom said this evening that his plans or the future wore too in definite for urn to say anything about them. .TUB IMlBStUXNUY I'KO TKM. These who ought to know bust seem o think that the cabinet slate will do- ) end somewhat on the issue of the opublican protest agiiinst Senator { ajanl's election to thu presidency ire torn , of the senate. This is bought not impossible though highly mprobablo. It is thought that some morgency may yet bring David Davis o the front for the presidency. At uiy rat a there is sure to bo consider able debate before the president is ilcctod. A rUOIIAKLEOIUECTION TO MILLKK. Speeches may bo expected from Senators Edmunds , Curloton and " 'rye ' at least. If the republican pro- cst is too strong the democrats may raise nn objection to Mr. Miller's wearing in and this will add to the omplications. The program , as ar- angod Saturday , remains un- hanged. THE FIH.ST DAY'S ruooiuiM. There is nothing now to indicate iiut there will bo a Ion ? session. The enato will bo called to order at noon . > y the chief clerk , and Senator Pen4 Ipton will make a speech in uomin- J ting Senator Bayard for the presi- .oncy pro tern. Senator Edmunds : rill also speak in nominating Senator mthony tor the same position and thor speeches may follow. It is ossiblo that the first day will bo do- otod to speeches , though it is not tow intended to carry the debate to nything like filibustering. Once tie president is chosen and nothing ut accident can prevent Bayard's be- ip ; the man. Next in order will bo fie swearing in of the republican sen- tors , unless tbo democrats insist on boosing a secretary first. This qucs- ion they have not yet decided. The robabilities are that they will make 10 effect to complete the organization jut let thu chief clerk act aa secretary n the interim by virtue of.succession. HB SECEETAUYHIIIP OF T11E SENATE. Marquis D. IBaurank , of California , i looking up as a republican candi- , ate for secretary of the senate. Pos- ibly the republicans may propose to lect a secretary. In that case tjjo oinocrata will elect thcir-man unless ) avis votes with the republicins. of Uuch a proposition , of courHo , will not oino from < the republican side until lie new men are sworn in. It may o definitely stated that thejo is no resent intention on the part of the umocrats to object to the swearing in f any now senators-elect. If tlwo natters progress smoothly it isthought liat thu business of the session can o concluded next week. . Senator David Davis arrived to-day nd has boon called on by a score of omocratic senators this evening. AUTUMN SPORTS. * iTHE TURF. tloui ! Associated Pieu. JEHOME PARK KACES. NKW YOUK , October 8.
