LAST NIGHTS CAUCUS.
1t Results in Steady Gains for Hood and
for Burton.

1t Results in Steady Gains for Hood and
for Burton.
The first caucus on United States sena-
tor which was held last evening in the
senate chamber was an interesting meet
ing.
]. R. Burton developed more strength
than his opponents expected and from
thirty-seven votes on the frat ballot went
up to forty seven at the close of the vot-
ing.
Major Hood had nineteen votes
on the first ballot and on the eighth bal
lot, cast just before the adjournment, he
had run up to thirty votes, making a
total gain larger than any other candi-
date.
Senator Thacher's followers remained
firm during the caucus AMI he had one
more vote on the last than on the first
ballot
Cyrus Leland, Jr, and J.. W. Ady were
practically out of the contest when the
adjournment was taken, although each
of them had a few votes
John j. Ingalls, secured one vote only,
and that was on the first ballot, while
Senator Lucien Baker got one vote each
on the first and second ballots.
Judge Albert II. Horton received one
ballot received four votes.
When the caucus adjourned it seemed
to be Burton against the field, with Mr..
Burton within seven votes of the nomi-
nation.
One of the surprises of the caucus was
that A. w. Smith did not receive single
vote.
Promptly at o'clock the caucus was
called to order by Judge w. B. Sutton of
bo had cd OF ho fafo
printer caucus a week ago.
Judge Sutton ruled that the organiza-
ton as far as the senatorial caucus was
concerned was only temporary, but the
senate at once made it permanent, with
Representative Tucker as secretary and
Senator c. 2. Scott as assistant secre-
tary.
Senator Morgan, Representatives Gar.
denhire, Powers and Merridith acted as
tellers.
Senator Baker raised the question as
to how many votes were necessary to
nominate, expressing the belief that it
would require fifty-four votes, a ma
| jority of the Republican members of
both houses, no matter how many mem
| bers might absent themselves from the
caucus or refuse to vote
This raised some discussion, and Col
onel Veale, with several other old-time
| legislators, began telling how they did
in '79 and in other goneby years. When
these "reminiscences had been repeated
| for about fifteen minutes, Representative
Satterthwaite remarked that the State
Historical meeting was held the night
before in the other end of the building.
Some of the members insisted that a
majority of the votes cast was all that
was necessary, but when it was put to a
vote Senator Bakers position was sus-
tanned and the nominee must receive
fifty four votes.
1t was decided not to have any nomi-
mating speeches and the caucus proceed
ed to ballot
Eight ballots in all were cast as fol
| lows:

by Kansas City man, yet even Kansas
City man may do an honest legislative
deed through mistake. The law IL con-
stitutional.
at seems to be intended that the sup
posedly dangerous provisions OF section
3 are to be read in connection with sec
ton 2, and not with section 1; and sec
tions and 8, taken together, simply mean
that it shall be a crime to sell or to
offer for sale what, on its face.
purports to be lottery ticket, no matter
whether it represents a real lottery or
fiction, the mere sale of what purp0Tts to
be lottery ticket is made crime, and
the whole offense consists in that act
''The accused cannot say the ticket
was a mere pretense-that there was no
such lottery in fact; nor call upon the
state to prove that a lottery actually ex-
listed as represented by the ticket. The
court is to say TO him, The question Is
not whether this ticket is in reality what
it purports to be, but whether you sold
or offered to sell this ticket
''Ihe legislature has power to say that
printing or selling tickets in the similI :
tude of lottery tickets shall be punishsd
as crime OF course the object of the
section is to prevent evasion. If no
tickets which look like lottery tickets
can be sold, then, of course, real lot
terry tickets cannot. That Is the
idea; and it is a legitimate idea
"However, it would be much better
were sections and 3 combined as one
section, and were section 2 made more
specific, SO there could be no question as
to the meaning and application of sec
ton g.
"Section 5 should be amended so as to
include landlords as we'll as tenants. In
my opinion, if thus amended, that law
will destroy the lottery business-or
make some county attorneys rich"

The house went into committee of the
whole yesterday on Mr.. Cubbison's anti
the bill to punish the player in public
gambling house, and players in private
house where the snm bet is over So.
Mr.. Eckstein opposed the second sec

pies private houses and also prevented
social games for prizes.
Mr.. Beekman said he would oppose
this bill and every other one that he
hadn't chance to read.
Mr.. Brown, Populist, of Pratt, said: 81
see no cause for the objection to the
passage of the bill as offered by the gen
tleman of the other side. 1t has taken
the Republicans thirty years to wake up
| to the fact that lotteries should be abol-
ished, and I want this to go through be-
fore they fall asleep"
The committee reported the bill to the
house recommending its passage as
amended, subject to amendment and de-
bate. The amendments were the strik-
ing out of the second and third sections.

pointment Of enrolling clerks, was adopt
ed.

! from Morton county to seat on the floor,
! giving him per diem and mileage, but
allowing him no other privileges, was
adopted.
The house refused to appoint three
