WASHINGTON LETTER-

Jan. 97-
A new scheme is being hatched
by Senators to enable
their part to the Senate
after the 4th of March, that is as
daring and audacious anything
ever attempted in this country in
the political line. he first step
in this scheme was taken this
week when Senator Chandler,
who is an adept in tricky politics,
offered a petition in the Senate
from Henry A. Du Pout and
eleven members of the Delaware
legislature, asking that the Son-
ate reconsider the vote whereby
it declared Mr. Du net en-
titled to a seat in the Senate.
This scheme never would have
been sprung had it not become
certain that the Democrats would
elect a Senator to fill the Dela-
ware vacancy. Those who are
behind it do not expect to seat

ting his before the Senate

this Congress. When Senator
