Senate, has abandoned the Republican party.
He cannot stand the attitude Of that party
on the tariff question. Mr. Carr was elected
to the Senate four years ago as labor Re-
publican, and was the hero Of the famous
deadlock in 1889, which lasted four weeks,
and resulted in his election to the presidency
of the Senate. Mr.. Carr is one of the most
influential men in the State.
