LEANING TOWARD SENATOR GORMAN LACK OF UNITY IN NEW YORK MAY PUT PARKER OUT AMD THEN IS GORMAN’S CHANCE. RcpmienlatlTC Livingston Con vinced That New York Democrat* Will Not Unite on Porker nod That New York Will Throw It* Strength to Gorman—Myer of l.ontslnnn Sny* Oorinu n Is the Ablest and Most Ijoa'lcal Candidate tlie Demo crat* Can Put Up. By R. M. Larner. Washington, April I.—Political for tunes are daily won and lost in the Senate and House cloak rooms. The fluctuations in the political market are as fickle and varying as the ups and downs in the financial stock market. To-day the Republicans will tell you that the election of Roosevelt is as sured, and to-morrow trie Democrats will tell you that this is a Democratic year, and it only remains for the party leaders to concentrate their efforts on a conservative presidential candidate, to bring about a change in the admin istration. The Republicans are committed to the renomination of Roosevelt, and the Chicago convention promises to be nothing more than a cut and dried rat iflcation meeting. If names and dates were given it would appear that the Republican leaders in Congress are hostile to another Roosevelt adminis tration. To what extent these nation al leaders reflect the sentiments of the rank and file, can only be sustained by the decision handed down by the vot ers at the polls next November. Looking for the Right Man. There is considerable confusion in the Democratic household over the se lection of a standard bearer in the coming campaign, but there is hope and encouragement to be derived from the general belief that a wave of Democratic ascendency is in sight. Here in Washington the political tide ebbs and flows periodically, and just how, the expert forecasters predict that “Democracy" is perched on the incoming Wave. A group of Democratic congressmen was discussing the party's future pros pects at the Capitol to-day. There were several well seasoned successful politicians in the symposium. There were no Republican eaves-droppers around and consequently there was a freedom of expression which may re flect some of the inside lights on the political situation from a Democratic point of view. Livingston for Goruinn. Representative Lon Livingston, of Georgia, a veteran in state and na tional politics thus declared himself. “If we do not take advantage of our present opportunity we might as well retire from business. The coun try is ripe for a change in the political complexion of the government. I was in New York a few days ago. I am convinced that the New York Dem ocrats are not united in their support of Judge Parker —they are confront ed by the old contention between the Hill machine up the state and the Tammany organization in New York city. In my judgment the rival fac tions in New York will not concen trate their honest efforts in behalf of Judge Parker, and when the appro priate time arrives, I believe New York will decline to receive instruc tions for Parker, and throw its strength to Senator Gorman, who in my opinion, is the strongest candidate wo can nominate. His strength is conceded by the fact that all of the Republican newspapers are afraid of him.” “How do you account for Senator Bacon's letter to the editor of the Augusta Chronicle, in which the Sen ator indirectly committed Senator Gor man to the Parker boom?” asked an interested listener. “I am* not accountable for Senator Bacon’s statements,” replied Mr. Liv ingston. Myer of Lont*tnnu Say* (iormnn. At this point in the conversation Representative Myer of Louisiana, one of the veteran members of the House, said: “X agree, with you, Livingston, that Senator Gorman is the ablest and most logical candidate we can put up. Sen ator Gorman cannot afford to engage in a scramble for the presidency. His record, his value as a safe and con sistent Democratic leader, precludes him from resorting to undignified meth ods to secure the nomination. It is not required of him and knowing him as I do, I am gratified at the con servative and dignified course he is pursuing. 1 am in favor of nominat ing a Southern man, and Senator Gor man is a good enough Southerner for me. I am convinced that unless we nominate a sound, practical, conserva tive man. who has the confidence of the business interests of the country, we will go to certain defeat.” There is undoubtedly a strong senti ment prevailing here that New York is not heartily in sympathy with the Judge Parker movement. Those who are familiar with New York politics are aware that local power in the distri bution of state and municipal patron age overshadows national issues on election day. killed”"ina’wreck. Train* Crnnlictl Together on the Georgia I’iictfic Rond. Atlanta, April 1. —In a collision be tween a westbound freight and an eastbound work extra on the main line of the Georgia Pacific road near Weems, Ala., to-day, Section Foreman J. T. Kilpatrick of Leeds, Ala., was instantly killed; J. T. Chambers, sup ervisor of Heflin, Ala., badly injured and several others of the work train force were injured. Both engines were damaged. The cause of the accident has not been as certained, but official investigation will be made at once. ttiuckltnrn for Congre**. Charlotte, N. C.. April I.—E.

REITZENSTEIN SAYS THE JAPANESE FLED. Coniinued from First Page. ship Fuji, the armored cruisers Id sumo, Yakumo and Iwate and the Togaino (?). GOLD SWORDS'OF^HONOR GIVEN BY ALEXIEFF. St. Petersburg, April I.—Viceroy Alexieff is at Port Arthur on a tour of inspection. He arrived there yes terday and his stay will be brief, as he will return immediately to head quarters. With Admiral Makaroft and Gen. Stoessel, respectively command ers of the Russian naval, and military forces at Port Arthur, and Gen. SmyrnofT he visited the battleships Petro Pavlovsk, Retvizan and Czare vitch, the protected cruiser Pallada and other ships in the harbor, and later conferred gold swords of honor, with St. George’s ribbons, inscribed “For gallantry," upon the captains of the cruisers Bayan. Novik and Ask old. According to information received here it is believed the Japanese are preparing to repeat their attempts on Port Arthur. Lieut. Newton A. McCully, assigned as United States naval attache with the Russian navy at Port Arthur, and Capt. William V. Judson of the United States Engineer Corps, who is to be attached to Gen. Kuropatkin’s head quarters, left here this evening, ac companied by Col. Papdaroff, the Bul garian military attache, and two Swiss attaches. They will go direct to Vice Admiral Alexieff’s headquarters at Mukden, where their future move ments will be determined. There is a growing conviction In naval and military circles that Vice Admiral Togo's desperate endeavors to bottle up or cripple the Port Arthur squadron are for the purpose of defi nitely immobilizing it while the Jap anese effect a landing at New Chwang or some other point. Vice Admiral Makaroff's capture of a Japanese steamer near an island be tween the extremity of the Liao Tung peninsula and the Shan Tung penin sula proves that he is watching the entrance of the Gulf of Pe Chi Li. It is not believed thf Japanese will attempt to debark on the shores of the Liao Tung gulf while Makaroff’s fleet is uncrippled. PAYS TRIBUTE TO NERVE OF JAPANESE SEAMEN. St. Petersburg, April I.—Admiral Skrydloff, commander of the Black sea fleet, who commanded the Pacific squadron for four years, in an inter view just published, paid a high trib ute to the seamanship, nerve and pluck of the Japanese. The admiral consid ers that only the first attack on Port Arthur was serious. The other at tacks and bombardments were for the purpose of keeping the squadron in Port Arthur, while a landing is effect ed in Korea or elsewhere. He considers Port Arthur impregna ble, of which he believes the Japanese are convinced, and declares that Ad miral Makaroff's fleet later on will play an important role. But for the pres ent and for some months, the scene will be on land. While the admiral does not say so, it is apparent that Makaroff is considering the arrival of the Baltic fleet in the autumn. While he says the Black sea fleet is only pre paring for the customary maneuvers, Admiral Skrydloff adds: "But we are ready for anything.” CORRESPONDENTS ARE OFF FOR THE FRONT. Tokio, April 1. —The first party of foreign correspondents left Tokio for the front to-day. It consisted of six ty-one newspaper men, mostly British and Americans. From here the party goes to Moji, leaving there April 6 on a Japanese transport for their destina tion, which is kept secret. The order of the Japanese authorities unleashing the correspondents was joyously received. It ended a long seige on the part of the correspondents at Tokio. They appreciated the necessity for the government maintaining secre cy in regard to the movements of the troops and their disposition for the campaign, but the newspaper men chafed under their extended idleness. A crowd gathered at the Shinbasishi station, where the correspondents went on board a train, and cheered the de parting writers. MEN OF SUNKEN SHIPS RECEIVED WITH HONORS. Odessa, April I.—The Russian steam er Malaya, from Far Eastern ports, with the survivors of the crews of the Korietz and Variag on board, arrived here to-day and was accorded an en thusiastic reception by the enormous crowds which lined the streets and joined in the procession. The foreign vessels in port dressed ship and their crews cheered as the Malaya entered the harbor, escorted by a flotilla of steamers and other craft with bands 'of music on board and crowded with people, who had gone out to meet her. As soon as the Malaya was signalled the commandant of the port boarded the steamer and pinned crosses of St. George on the breasts of the rescued men. The survivors were received on shore with great enthusiasm. RUSSIANS ARE NOW CLAIMING A VICTORY. St. Petersburg. April I.—The follow ing semi-official dispatch has been re ceived from Liao Yang: “In the first encounter with the Jap anese in Northern Korea, which was crowned with victory for the Russian arms, the enemy’s losses were ten times those of the Russians. According to Korean reports, the Japanese buried fifty men. while 120 wounded were re moved with the help of 500 Koreans to the headquarters of the Japanese main force. The confusion of the Japanese was so great that they hoisted two red cross flags in token of surrender. “Throughout their war with China, the Japanese never showed themselves so distracted. The troops here are in high spirits over the news of this first brilliant fight in Korea.” RUSSIAN CAVALRY” IN MUCH DISTRESS. Seoul, April I.—lt is reported here that the Russian cavalry, in much dis tress, are retiring toward Wiju. They are cutting down telegraph poles to use as fuel, and their horses are dying for lack of proper food. GENERAL ALLEN LOOKS FOR STAND AT THE YALU. Seoul, April l.—Brig. Gen. Allen, United States militury observer with the Japanese army, has returned here from Ping Yang. He says the roads in Northern Korea are in very bad SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY. APRIL 2. 1904. , THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR |ij POWDER Absolutely Pure IT IS A MATTER OF HEALTH SUNDRY CIVIL APPROPRIATION BILL HAS BEEN PASSED BY THE HOUSE There Is a Provision Carrying $105,000 for the Improvement of the Savannah Harbor. By R. M. Larner. • Washington, April I.—ln the sundry civil appropriation bill, which passed the House to-day, there is a provision carrying $105,000 for continuing the im provement of Savannah harbor. Representative Lester says there will be no specific provision for Savannah or any other harbor in the $5,000,000 bill soon to be reported from the Som mittee on Rivers and Harbors. It was originally intended to keep the bill down to a $500,000 limit, but the pres sure was so strong that it has ex panded to $3,000,000. This amount will be expended at the discretion of the secretary. The allotments, which are not to exceed $50,000 in any one piace, will be made upon the recommendation of the chief of engineers. The ex penditures are to be confined en tirely to the maintainance of projects near completion, which may require protection from the elements until a general river and harbor bill is pass ed. No new projects will be considered but the Secretary of War has authority to dredge or otherwise protect chan nels of commerce, not otherwise \)io vided for, in case of shoaling. The House voted down a proposi tion bv Mr. Sulzer to recommit the sundry civil appropriation bill with in structions to strike out the appropria tion of $136,600 for rent of the New York Custom House.

Gen. Allen believes that the Russians intend to make a stand at the Yalu. SAYS THEY DROVE THE RUSSIANS FURTHER. Tokio, April 1, 6 p. m.—lnformation has been received here from a private source that the Japanese troops, after dislodging the Russians at Chong Ju (about fifty miles northwest of Ping Yang on March 28, rested for one day, and then advanced to Yong Chun, about forty-five miles west of Chong Ju). After a brief engagement they drove the enemy further north, the Russians retreating toward Unsan, a town eighty miles northeast of Yong Chun. IIEXKY FOUND GUILTY. Sentenced to 20 Year* for Shooting at Col. Beutey. Bartow, Fla., April I.—The jury in the case of Ben Henry, charged with attempting to murder Col. and Mrs. John Beatey, was out only eleven min utes last night, when it brought in a verdict of guilty as charged in the in dictment. It will be remembered that Col Beatey was driving from this city to his phosphate mine, about ten miles away, last Christmas Eve, accompan ied by his wife. When about three miles from town they were fired on from ambush, a whole charge of shot striking their buggy, tearing the top away, and several shot striking them about the head and face. Mrs. Beatey was painfully hurt, and for awhile it was feared she could not recover. The negro, Ben Henry, was arrested, charged with the crime, and some very strong circumstantial evidence accumu lated against him. The case was tried last week, the jury making a mistrial, and Judge Wall ordered anew jury summoned and appointed Tuesday of this week to take up the case again. Judge AVall sentenced Henry this morning to serve twenty years in the penitentiary. I'uill $50,000,000 Subscribed. New York, April I.—Subscribers to the $50,000,000 loan negotiated by the Pennsylvania Company through Kuhn, Loeb & Cos., a few weeks ago paid their subscriptions in full to-day. So far as the effect on the local financial conditions is concerned, the payment df this large sum probably means nothin? more than the shifting of accounts from one bank or trust com pany to another. A considerable amount of these subscriptions was taken abroad and out of town insti tutions also took a large portion. To Establish n School, Bartow, Fla., April I.—A committee from the Seventh Day Adventists is to meet with the Board of. Trade in a few days, for a conference in regard to the establishment of a school of an industrial nature in this section. It is understood that the school will be a branch of the Battle Creek, Mich., sanitartum, and operated on the same basis. Sweat, Itch, Blister? W NGferasjQf ▼ application prove* Its merit.

With the exception of one amendment, providing certain increases in the sig nal corps, the House disagreed to all other important Senate amendments, and the bill was sent back to confer ence. The propositions to consolidate the office of the .adjutant general with that of the record and pension division, and make Brigadier General Ainsworth, chief of the latter division, military secretary, with the rank of major gen eral, and put him in charge, and allow officers who served in the Civil War, who retire, or who may already have retired, to retire at the next higher grade, were debated at length and met with strong opposition. They were disagreed to and sent into conference. Botli Mr. Hay (Democrat) of Vir ginia and Mr. Williams (Democrat) of Mississippi opposed an increase in the army. The latter declared that the government was starving home de velopment every day by devoting money to some 40,000 more soldiers than were needed. Ho did not believe in putting any more men on a war foot ing. Regarding the proposal to promote Gen. Ainsworth to be major general, Mr. Parker (Republican), of New Jer say, said this was simply a personal army promotion, not obtained in the regular course of the service, and that it invaded the prerogative of the Pres ident. Speaking of Gen. Ainsworth, Mr. Parker declared that “because you know a man and think him a good fel low in charge of a bureau, it is no reason why you should make him a major general.” After some debate on the Alaskan feature of the bill the House adjourned until to-morrow. TALKED OF THE CANAL. Plun of rayment Thai Will Prob nbly Be Followed. Washington, April I.—A considerable part of to-day’s session of the cabinet was devoted to a discussion of the sit uation relating to the Panama canal. That no delay of an unnecessary na ture is now expected was evidenced by a cablegram read by Attorney General Knox informing the cabinet that a meeting of the stockholders of the ca nal company had been called for April 23. At that time the final action will be taken by the company in the trans fer of the canal property to the United States. When the legal technicalities have been complied with on the part of the company to the satisfaction of Assist ant Attorneys General Day and Rus sell, who are in Paris as representa tives of this government, the United States will be in position to pay over to the company the *40,000,000 for the canal property. At the same time $lO,- 000,000 will be paid to the Republic of Panama. Of the necessary amount $30,000,000 is on deposit in New York subject to the order of Secretary Shaw. The re maining $20,000,000 will be paid out of the current funds of the treasury. While the receipts of the government each month are exceeding the expendi tures, it is just possible that Secretary Shaw may issue an additional call upon the national bank depositories in order that the treasury may meet the payment of the $20,000,000 without drawing too heavily upon the funds now in the treasury. It is desirable, in the view of the treasury officials, that rf working balance of about $50,- 000,000 be kept in the treasury. The amount now on hand is nearly $56,000,- 000, and by the end off this month will approximate $60,000,000. To retain $50,- 000,000 in the treasury, , therefore, it may be deemed necessary to call on the government depositories for some thing like *10,000,000. Regicide* Assigned. Belgrade, Servla, April 1. —The regi cides question Is considered here to have been finally settled, all those immediately concerned in the palace murders having been removed from the King’s entourage. A decree pub lished to-day removed the last two, both favorites of King Peter, namely, the notorious Col. Popovlcs, the King's first aide-de-camp, who has been ap pointed commandant of the garrison at Belgrade, and Col. Solarole, who becomes director of the military acad emy. The return of the foreign dip lomatic representatives is expected shortly. Report on Cooper Bill, Washington, April X.—The House Committee on Insular Affairs to-day authorized a favorable report on the Cooper hill for the issuance of bonds for municipal improvements In the Philippines, and guaranteeing Interest on capital to be invested in railroad construction in those islands. Bnnilll* Sentenced Again. Chicago, April 1. —To-day, owing to an alleged technical error, the car barn bandits, VanDtne, Niedermeler and Marx were resentenced in the Criminal Court by Judge Kersten. The bandits are to be executed on April 22, the date named in their original sentence. BRITISH SURPRISED BY THE TIBETANS. Were Not Expecting tlie Fierce At tack That Whi Mnile. London. April 2.—The India office has issued long dispatches sent by Col. Younghusband, commanding the Brit ish mission to Tibet, through Lord Curzon, the viceroy of India, which confirm the story of the Associated Press concerning the engagement be tween the British and Tibetans near Guru yesterday. The dispatches add that it was a Lhassa general who fired the first shot, thereby Inciting the Tibetans to attack, and show that but for the fact that the Tibetans were so hemmed in that they could not use their weapons, the British loss might have been much more serious. Later dispatches to the Associated Press show that so little was the on set expected that the British officers were eating sandwiches and adjusting cameras. Mr. Candler, the unfortu nate correspondent of the Daily Mail, was sitting unarmed, writing. He had a narrow escape from death, receiving twelve wounds; Colonel Younghusband and his staff were not far distant, and also were wholly unarmed, and it is evident that but for the personal cour age and presence of mind of Col. Mac- Donald and his officers a terrible dis aster might have occurred. The Tibetans displayed dogged fear lessness. apparently being misled by the smallness of the British force, and ignorant of the effect of modern fire arms. The whole affair only occupied ten minutes, and even in the retreat the Tibetans disdained to scatter and run and marched solemnly in lines under a hail of fire. REPORT UPON CROPS. Condition*. on tlie Whole, Are Shown lo lie Good. Washington, April 1. —The Weather Bureau’s summary of crop conditions for March is as follows: From the upper Mississippi valley to the Middle Atlantic coast the season Is generally reported backward, although the average temperature for the month in these districts was generally in ex cess of normal, in the Southern States the month has been mild and favora ble for farming operations. Good progress has been made with oat seeding in the Southern states, with the exception of Western Texas, where it has been too dry, and the general outlook for this crop is prom ising. Seeding is in progress as far north as Southern Missouri and Kan sas, but no seeding has been done far ther north. In the Gulf states much corn has been planted and good stands are reported. In the central and west ern portions of the cotton belt cotton planting was progressing rapidly at the close of the month, and some plant ing had been done in ail the Eastern districts. In Southern Texas about half the crop has been planted: and the early planted is coming up nicely. In the central valleys, lower lake re gion, and New England peaches are re ported to have been injured, but itave thus far escaped injury in the Middle and South Atlantic states.

ROYAL FOOT WASH “He Was Very Pale.” “Had no appetite and had a great deal of sore throat.” i * I MASTER E. COLE SHOLES. Nobody, not even the most learned scientist living, can tell all of the rea sons why the children do not thrive in growth. We often notice children who have formerly been robust and strong suddenly and without any ap parent cause begin to show signs of failing health. Appetite is not as keen as it was. the cheeks begin to lose their color, and there Is a falling off in weight. Food does not nourish as it should, there is a susceptibility to taking cold, and the evidence is as plain as daylight that the vitality is lowered. Let us Introduce a letter which ought to be interesting to every mother. Milton Junction, Wis., Nov. 27, 1903, Denr Sirs: I want to tell you what good your Ozomulsion has done to my little son. now three years old. He had been In delicate health and had suffered a great deal with impaired digestion. He was very pale, had no appetite, and had a great deal of sore throat. He was not strong, and we were very much worried about him. A short time ago I commenced giv ing him Ozomulsion, and the change in him has indeed been remarkable. Whenever I see a pale, thin child now I think of it and wish that the child could have the beneficial proper ties which I know Ozomulsion con tains. Our little son now weighs 33 pounds, has rosy cheeks, a good ap petite, sleeps well and is growing nicely. His digestion is all right, he no longer suffers from constipation, and, in fact, he Is the picture of health in every way. We cannot possibly praise Ozomul sion too much, as we are so thankful for what it did to our little boy. Y r ery truly yours, (Signed.) (Mrs.) LIZZIE SHOLES. When the mother sees her little child restored to health by Ozomul sion she does not care about the scientific reasons for this change in health; all she cares about is that MINORITY DECLARES AGAINST IMPEACHMENT OF S WAYNE Parker Gives His Reasons for Thinking the Judge Is Not Liable. Washington, April I.—The minority views of Representative Gillett, of Cali fornia, heretofore published, to which are appended brief statements by Rep resentatives Littlefield, of Maine, and Parker, of New Jersey, In opposition to the impeachment of Judge Charles Swayne, of Florida, have been print ed for the use of members. The Gil lett report is signed by himself and Representatives Nevln, Alexander and Pearre. Mr. Littlefield prefaces his signature by the statement that although he has not had time to examine the minority report, he has carefully examined the record in the case, “and I have no hesi tation in saying that in my opinion it does not disclose a state of facts that would Justify Impeachment proceed ings.” Mr. Parker states that in his opin ion impeachment proceedings should not be begun against Judge Swayne. He comments upon the fact that Judge Swayne has been out of his district a great deal each year, but says it can hardly be stated that he has not resided there within the meaning of the crimi nal statute for a period covering all or dinary limitations of criminal prosecu tions. He concludes: "It does not appear that his behavior In any of the cases cited by the ma jority renders him liable to impeach ment. He was justifiably severe with O'Neal for getting into a quarrel with an officer of his court about his offi cial action as receiver in bankruptcy, and then stabbing him. He was right to be severe when young Hoskins beat the clerk of another such receiver and took from him books claimed by that receiver. He had occasion for right eous indignation against two attorneys of his court, who doubted his word when he denied ail interest in a case pending before him, and brought suit against him personally in order pub licly to emphasize that doubt. In such a case he should not be censured even if he went to the limit of his Jurisdic tion to defend his court. “The adjournment of the proceed ings in bankruptcy of the elder Hos kins was Intimately connected with the contempt proceedings as to the young er one. There appears to be no sub stantial proof of the charges of cor ruption, ignorance, incompeteney, de liberate waste of bankruptcy assets, criminal or Improper favoritism to cer tain lawyers, failure to hold terms, im proper acceptance of accommodation, indorsements from attorneys or liti gants. or the wrongful discharge of convicts- In the opinion of the minor ity all these charges appear to be with out foundation. Whether the condi tions that prevail in this district de mand some legislative remedy may be a question, which is not here now. In my opinion Judge Swayne is not lia ble to impeachment.” Copte* of tlie Meport. Washington, April I.—ln the House to-day Mr. Gillett of California se cured authority to have printed 2,000 extra copies of the report of the Com mittee on Judiciary in the Swayne able to grow and develop us It ought to do. The trouble with children as a rule i . that for some unknown reason their systems luck the nourishing properties of food and the growing body must languish in consequence. When the child takes Ozomulsion it not only gets the wonderful properties of cod-liver oil in the best possible form for palate and stomach, but it also gets the hypophosphites of lime and soda, which have a favorable ef fect upon the digestion, feed the nerv ous system and sustain the growing brain. Tills combination of cod liver oil and hypophosphites, as is found in Ozomulsion, is the best possible rem edy for children who do not thrive. Ozomulsion Is a splendid remedy for coughs and colds and ail affections of the throat and lungs. It goes far be yond this, however, in giving vitality to the entire system and bringing hack the physical vigor by which all children show their prosperity in growth. For the teething baby that suffers so much distress in Its little world Ozomulsion Is a remarkable prepara tion, and in all those conditions in which children do not thrive it is the best remedy which could be employed. Ozomulsion contains no harmful drugs whatever, and is perfectly safe to give to children. Its sweet taste alone commends it, because children like it and do not look upon it as a medi cine. Druggists sell Ozomulsion at 50 cents and SI.OO.

Washington, April I.—The Post to morrow will say: An agreement has been reached whereby the resolution to impeach Judge Swayne of the northern district of Florida will be called up for con sideration in the House next Thurs day. The time is satisfactory to Mr. Palmer of Pennsylvania, who prepared the majority report of the Judiciary Committee In favor of Impeachment, and also to Mr. Gillett of California, who prepared the chief minority re port against impeachment. Speaker Cannon has agreed to Thursday for consideration of the resolution. An attempt will be made by some of the Republican leaders in the House to have the matter recommitted to the Judiciary Committee, thus avoid ing at this session a vote on the mer its of the case.
