In executive session of the senate
the nomination of McCulloch to bo
secretary of the treasury was taken
up. Senator Eiddleberger moved
that its consideration be postponed
until after the holidays, which motion
was lost as was also another by the
S3me senator, to postpone it until
Monday. Senator I'iddleberger then
said he "was not fully prepared to
so state his objections to the con
firmation, but he would, as prelim
inary, ask for the reading of Secre
tary McCulloch's annual reports
during his former administration of
the treasury department. He yielded,
however, to a motion to adjourn,
which was carried unanimously.
