President. I was out of the city last week. and I suppose the request made by the Senator from Massachusetts was owing to that fact. I want tosay something upon the bill. in the opening particularly about the general features of the question of emigration to this country. I would be very glad to go on tomorrow if it were not the fact that the subcommittee of the Committee on the Judiciary which has charge of the question of the confirmation of Judge Sloan is holding a hearing today. We have been in session all day. and we are to hold a meeting this evening beginning at half past 7.
