The gathering OF Senators at Senator
Arkell's res idonoe at Canajoharie on Friday

rue that subject was talked over. but more In
tho way OF chai,lng Senator Mccarthy than

complime nted him on the figure that no would

| Arthur was a candidate or not. anHaf he really
| supported Blaine. Baker wanted to get Hub

| Senntorship. When the gathering broke up
! none of the number knew how oil OF tho others
| would vote In the caucus for Senator. 1t is
| possible that after moro tea parties they may
