WASHINGTON, April C Tho republicans
of tho house In caucun tonight decided to
take the shortest possible route to a ter

by concurring In all tho senate amendments
and sondlng tho bill directly to tho presi

of Wisconsin nnd Mcody of Massachnsetts.
who favored standing out against somo of
tho features of the civil government scheme
attached to tho bill by tho senate. They
objected especially to tho senate provision
making all tho members of the upper coun
cil of tho Porto Uico leglslaturo appointees
of tho president and clothing them with tho
power to grant franchises, but tho senti
ment of tho caucus wns overwhelmingly
against them. None of tho republicans who
voted ngnlnst the original houso bill wero
present at tho houso caucus tonight.
As noon an' tho republicans absent from
Washington can bo summoned hon tho mat

a epeelnl rule.
Altornatlvo motions probably will be cut
off under tho rules. There hns been no de
cision ns to tho time to bo allowed for du

out a statement as follows:
"It was a full and harmonious caucus. The
best of temper was displayed. Payno moved
