In order to soften the procf of the charge of Rohertw the committee accompanies it with a statement from the prosncutlng attorney of Salt Luke Citv,8aying that for va rious reasons it is not likely that Graham will be brought to trial under that indict ment; It is probable that thf wishes of, the McKinley ad irfinistTation, are among those "reasoua" for not try ing to convict the polyga- mist postmaster.

As soon as thy realized what had been done the d miniht ra tion Sen a t ora flocked upon the floor. The yea.vsand nays were railed tor, but Mr. -Allen objected, and the objection was bus rained. Later, Senator Alien good riatumtly agreed .that the vote should be reconsid ered and the resolntion sem to the valander. " J Col.
