Interesting Notes on the Extra Session
Talk-Jorgensen and Gorham in Row.
WASHINGTON, April l9.-The Demo-
cratic Senators have determined to meet
Blair's resolution declaring for an ex-
ira session for inquiring into the tariff
and the necessity for some revision
with the proposition to JON
him on the tarin questioh
but not in the call for the extra session,
Mr.. Blair, when interviewed by the AS
sociated Press reporter, said he was IN
earnest in pressing an extra session. as
he believed this was the only way
10 break the pending deadlock
in the Senate. II is said the Republi-
cans will not Weld and the Democrats
are determined not to, but the Demo-
Gratis could not maintain the present
attitude in the legislative session. The
Democrats would not dare to obsruct
the regular legislative business by
opposing the election of Senate officers,
besides being the easiest and quickest
way OF breaking the dead lock. There
is much important business for
Congress TO do. AS reported, his
resignation was offered on the
advice OF the President and his
Cabinet. Mr.. Blair said it was not true
that it was his own idea Of the solution
OF the difficulty.
Senator Sherman said to-day to the
other Senators OF his party that
it was necessary to confirm some
of the Presidents nominations, but
he held that this could be done without
any surrender of the present fight. The
President is desirous to have a number
OF important nominations confirmed.
The Democrats declare that they will
not submit to the election OF new
officers, even if an extra session is
called.
Congressman Jorgensen, OF Va, and
Editor Gorham, of the National RepuCH
can, had a quarrel last evening over the
lstter's severe criticisms OF Jorgensen,
because he favors straight Republican
organization in Virginia. Jorgensen de-
nounced Gorham as liar and slanderer.
The Republican Senators have all been
notified TO be promptly in their seats
tomorrow to make determined effort
to pass the resolution ior the election OF
officers. The Democrats heard OF the
matter and have Just sent word to their

house to escape, but while climbing the
fence was overtaken by Edmonson, who
fired ball into her head. He then beat
her badly with his pistol and left her for

tell who shot her and to state that she
