WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-A West
ern Associated Press agent called
upon Senator Davis last night and
asked him il he had been notified
of the Republican, purpose to
nominate him. He replied that he
had not; that he had heard OF moth
ing except what he had read n the
newspapers; that no Republican
Senators had approached him on
the subject, DOR had he any con-
yersation about it at all. When
asked what he would do il NOM
mated in the Senate, he declined
to answer, saying that he consid-
cred 1t indicate to tai * about the
matter; that he had no profter for
him to decline something that
would not be offered him. Lead
ing Democrats are very positive
that their party will not flibuster
to prevent or delay the election of
Davis If he accepts. The Demo.
Gratis say that il Davis votes with
the Republicans, or If he refrains
from voting that would give the
Republicans majority and there
would be nothing for the minority
to do but to submit If Iavis de-
termines to accept, the present. it,
dicatious are that he will b elected
and installed as quietly az, Bayard
was.

tonight indicate the election of
twenty Republican and thirteen
Democratic Senators. Tho die

Ohio will have from thirtyo thir-
ty.five majority in the Mouse.
Should the official fgurs verify
the above the Republics will
have larger majority p both
branches of the General Asembly
than they had in the last billy.
