Senator Van Wyck appeared in his usual roi'c of the end man and bones combined. 111 opposition to h resolution introduced by Ssenator Piatt, authoriz ing the Committee on Indian Trader shiprt to sit during the recess. He thought it was a wrong course to pursue to let ihet-e committees come in. one after the other, w.th resolutions i f that kind, and he offered an amendment to authorize all the regular and special committees of the Senate to si: during the recess. He supposed the Committee on Commerce w uld want to sit. and the Committee on Sea Coast Defences wi-uli want to spend tne summer months along the Atlantic and Pacilic oonst-. Probably the Committee on Indian Alfairs w.u..l want to make a summer campaign. He inquired of Senator Dawes whether that was not so. Mr. Dawes replied that no such resolu tion had been matured. Mr. Van Wyck went on to say that tht -e committees alw.,ys disclaimed the idea of being actuate-d by anything but a rtc-i- of duty in determining to sit daring the recess, but he noticed that their sense of duty always l ecame .-ry -:r ng i-t before the expiration of the session.
