WILL HAVE No SENATOR
The Oregon Legislature Can Last
but a Few Days
DOLPH LEFT IN THE LURCH
The Statesmen Will Have to Agree Upon
Compromise
Members of Both Senate and Assembly
Appear to be Against Third Terms,
What Will the Vote Shown

Salem, Ore, Feb. 21.-The Oregon leg
islature will adjourn sine die next Satur-
day at midnight. This was decided upon
today by the passage of a resolution in
both houses fixing the time OF adjourn
ment. The contest for United States Sen
ator, which has been carried on during
the entire session, is the all-absorbing
topic. Today Dolph lost two votes and
many predict that his support will go to
pieces tomorrow. The opposition to
Dolph has centered upon George H. Will
liams, ex-United States Attorney
and he has now 80 votes. The situation
tonight seems to point to the election of
Williams, as he is believed to be the
second choice of the Dolph men. Those
who bolted the caucus nominee undoubt-
edly favor Governor Lord as first choice,
but without the support of number of
Dolph men it will be impossible to elect,
unless the Democrats and Populists take
a hand, and this is not likely to occur.
The last ballot today stood Dolph, 80;
Williams, %; Hare, 10; Raley, 6; Waldo,
2; McAllister, /. Necessary to choice A.

HAYWARD is ON THE RACK
How the Accused Came to Meet the
Unfortunate Girl
The Defendant Admits All the Tales of His
High Rolling, but Denies That He
Killed the Woman.

Minneapolis, Feb. 2l.-The cross-exam-
inaton of W. W. Hayward father OF the
young man accused of numbering Miss
Cling, was continued today. County At
torney Nye could not shake his testimony
in the slightest. By the testimony OF
Gunsmith William Yale, the defense es
tablished that the bullet which killed Miss
Cling was the same weight as the one
taken from No. 3S short cartridge Blixt
had testified that Harry Hayward had
told him the cartridges were long.
The defendant Harry Hayward, was
called, and took the stand with his arms
folded and teeth set. He declared, in an
swer to questions that the testimony of
Blixt and Adry Hayward was false. He
said he knew the reason his brother testi-
fed falsely against him, and Erwin asked
him to explain. The prosecution objected
and the objection was sustained. Erwin
then asked: "Did your brother have any
fear of you for the reason you might make
disclosures about him?'
"Yes, SIR" responded Harry. The an
swer was ruled out.
Now you have heard Adry say he had
never seen Miss Cling. Did he ever see
her?''
"He did. 1t was on a narrow, dark
road between Nicollet avenue and Lake
Calhoun. He could not see her very well,
but he could feel her all right.
"Was he alone with her?'
"He was not.
''Who was with him?''

necessary. The young lady is here i'll the

miss Veddar. They were both with
him..
Nye objected to anything further in
this line and was sustained by the court.
Il tell you," said Judge Smith, ''it is
an insult to this Court; when you know
what you are proposing to show has been
ruled out by this Court, you try to bring
it in in another way.
II mean no disrespect, said Erwin,

proof. Now" turning to the witness, II

Hayward said he had gambled high and
lots of it. He admitted he tried to keep
it from the public, but his friends all
knew it. He said he had gambled in al
most every city in the country and named
San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego
and Cheyenne among the places he visit
ed. Miss Cling knew he gambled and took
part in faro game herself.

The Boise Legislature Wants Senators Elected
by the People

Boise, Idaho, Feb. 2l.--The Assembly
today, with but five dissenting votes,
passed memorial to Congress in favor of
the election of Senators by direct vote

There was one pair today and the vote
for United States Senator resulted: Shoup,

There is much nervousness tonight. A
Populist caucus has been called to con-

be elected by the Populists, enough of his
men will leave him to elect Shoup. 1t
