MADISON. Wis, Oct 26.-The ap-
portionment, as adopted by the Demo-
efacy caucus, with a single exception.
passed both houses this afternoon, oil
the Democrats voting for it excepting
Senator Jeruger and ASsemblymau
Brown. The single exception is in the
case of Fond du Lac county, where the
Republican arrangement prevailed. In
both houses Republicans offered every
objection possible. submitting a score
of amendments and making many
speeches.
A tragedy characterized the contest
in the senate, where Senator Maysink
raised lots of objection against the
measure. He is brother -in-law of ex-
Senator Spooner, and was taken sud-
denly ill whilst speaking. He was taken
home and is not thought to be danger
ously ill. The bill got through the up
per house by the narrow majority of 16
to Is.
In the house the Republicans were
reinforced in their opposition by Neal
Brown, one of the Democratic leaders,
and at the present time nominee for
the state senate. He thought the as
sembly bill contrary to the constitution.
Generally he indorsed the bill. but q
few exceptions he thought
Unequal in Division.
