WASHINGTON, July 27-The nomination Of
Thomas Hanlon, to be collector of internal rev.
enue for the Terre Haute district occupied two
hours more of the executive session of the Sem
ate to-day. Senators Harrison and Voorhees,
did the talking. They discussed the case fully.
When the vote was finally taken it was tie

and 80 Hanlop was rejected. Senators Van
Wyck and Riddieberger. Republicans, voted for
confirmation, as did all the Democrats
present; Senators Logan and Cameron,
Republicans, were absent, and neither was
paired. Had they been present. Hanlon's re-
lection would have been by two majority.
Logan, it is ascertained, arranged his pair upon
all other questions, and Democratic Senators
say he did not pair on this question because ne
wanted to repay Senator Harrison for voting
against his position in the Payne case Had
Logan been present however. he would have
voted against Hanlon. Indiana Democrats say
motion will be entered to reconsider this vote,
SO that Hanlon, not being rejected when Con-

propriety than otherwise

TO take the same position in respect to the bill
as was taken by Senator Jones, fromlhis State,
while it was under discussion. IL fact it is re-
ported that Joness speech was made after con-
suitation with Garland. Senator Vest made
what is considered the ablest fight against the
bill in the Senate, arguing that it was in viola
ton of the Constitution to tax one industry for
the benefit of another. The President does not
always take the advice of his ministers however,
and the friends of the oleomargarine bill are hop
ing that he will ignore Garands opinion as he
did that of Secretary Lamar regarding the bill
granting the right of way to a railroad through
the Montana Indian reservation. Mr.. Lamar and
Indian Commissioner Atkins both advocated that
measure, but it was vetoed all the same.
