CHARLESTON, W. Va. Feb. l9-At noon YES
terday, when the legislature met, every one
thought the senatorial question would be
settled but beyond a little excitement nothing
more than the usual result was reached. A
number Of democrats in voting announced
their reasons for casting their ballots against
kenna, giving, among others. their belief that
be could not be elected. kenna lost twelve
votes, and the general belief is he cannot now
be elected at all though all would return TO
him should Dorr conclude TO vote for him. and
his election would be assured at any time under
this contingency. As retaliatory measure a
number of democrats have asserted that il one
nAn can prevent the democrats eiecting a
United States Senator several can prevent an
election at ALL and in view of the approaching
end of the regular session ON the 22d. some
sharp political work is expected from both
sides.

successor has been elected and qualified -
Claiming his election upon the face of the re-

any justice of the peace Oh the payment of the
regular fee and then be ready to step into and
hold the governorship when opportunity
affords.
Excitement, of course, is increasing, and as
the expiration of the session draws nearer
