One of tho questions was whether

tion of the revised statutes which

Senate Outlook '
Washington Jan 22 The pres-
ent indications are that tho senato
will divide its attention in the main
this week between tho general elec-
tions bill and tho policy of a bond is-
sue as decided upon by the secretary
of tho treasury. There has now been
a positive agreement upon tho partot
the Republicans to continue lira dis-
cussion of tho election bill and to take
It up with a view to its final disposition
tho eflect that while it did not dis-
pute the power of tho secretary to
issue bonds under tho act of 1875 it
was of the oninlon that he could not I dave to
use anv of such funds for any purpose and closo
other than In redeeming legal tendci
notes.
Who Will Ite ISett?
Washington Jau 17. Now that
Hornblowor has been rejected as jus-
tice of tlie supremo court by tho sen-
ate every politician and newspaper
man In Washington Is speculating as
to tho name of tho man whom tho
president will no 7 send in for the
place. One of the reasons given out
by tho opposition to Hornblowor why
ho was rejectod was that tho Now
York senators were not consulted In
tho matter of his selection for tho
place and that this conduct on tho
part of Mr. Cleveland was a blow at
every eonator Arguing from this It
is said that tho president will not
name another mn from New York
for tho place because ho will not con-
fer with Senators Hill and Murphj.
Their crowd is against Cleveland and
tho Cleveland crowd is against them.
