The democratic caucus remained In

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.
