WAsHINsroN, d. c., January 2.-There
has been nothing encouraging in the coHdl-
tion OF Senator Kenna in the past twenty
four hours.
He is in constant pain, which the physi-
clans have endeavored TO alleviate oy the
use Of opiates, so that the patient could get
a little rest.
In this way he secured a little sleep last
night
At one time last night, before the physl-
clans administered opiates for his relleI.
the Senator was In such intense pain that
it was feared be could not survive. After
the phvsjclan's visit he grew much easier
and brighter and later fell into a sleep
which refreshed him considerably, but TO-
day the pains abont the heart returned and
his condition is now such that his family
realize that he is in iminent danger.
The slightest aggravatiOn of the heart
trouble would be liable 70 cause fatal re-
suit.
The Senator has been unable to take
any nourishment for the past two days,
with the exception Of a little clam broth
which be took tonight,
He still retains mis- wonderful courage
and clearness Of head, and does not seem
TO realize the danger which he is in.
Mr.. w. Z. Chiffon and his bride re-
turned here to-day from the North, and are
guests at Senator Kenna's house.
The following telegram was received
later by Associated Press:
Senator Kenna, Of West Virginia,
who has been seriously III for
several weeks from complication
of diseases, but who has recently been con-
sidered out OF danger, had relapse yes
terday, and his family believed that he
would not survive the night.
This morning he was slightly better, out
not sufficiently to allay fears and the
Rrayest tapprehensions are felt
DIR. Sewers, Senator Kenna's physician,
when asked this evening as to Senator
Kenna's condition, said that when ne
called on him at p. N. he was very Ill.
He did not, however, apQrehend that ne
would die to night
Senator Kenna's disease is that OF the
heart. from which ne has been suffering for
upwards of two years.
The family of the stricken Senator are
prepared for the worst, which may come at
anV time.

California Legislature assemblies to-mor-

is composed Of ffty-niHe Democrats, nifty

tres in the election Of a United States
Senator The leading candidates have
been Stephen White, Les Angeles, w. w.

The Democrats lack only three votes OF a
majority on Joint ballot, while the Repuoll-
cans lack eight. Statements have been
made TO the effect that the eight PopullSt
votes would be cast with the Republicans
for rhe election OF United States Senator,
but this is denied Oy several OF the Popu-
lists. who state that they will vote as a
unit, their preference being Thomas ".

and Democrats are looking after their
doubtful votes of Burke, Of San Francisco,
who was elected to the Assembly as nom
partisan, and Carlson. Independent, from
San Diego, both of whom have been clasSed
with Republicans.
Assuming that the POpullSUS comOlne
with Repu uOlicans and that Carlson votes
with the Democrats as they now expect
the legislature would be tied on joint bal
lot. and il would develop upon Governor
Markham, who is Republican, to appoint
a Senator. One feature of the contest IS
the withdrawal, since Saturday, OF Foote,
who next 10 White, is considered the
most promising Democratic candidate.
