Then DR.. Cargil of San Benito came
out and left the Capitol building. Richards

The caucus was one short Of a majority of
the Repu blican legislators by the defec-
tons, and for a time the war wavered.
There arc eighty-seven Republicans in the
Legislature and two Independent Republi-
cans, making eighty-nine in all. 1t takes
forty-ive to make a majority and control
the party. There were only forty-four in
caucus.
Inside there was uneasiness. Outside 1t
was reported that Perkins had won. a
message was hastily sent to De Young's
quarters that Perkins was about to score
a victory and urging a rally of the forces
of the former. Those on the inside waited.
The minutes were long. Men pledged to

obligations. Several of the legislators in

through the walls, gave a change to their
thoughts and soothed their anxiety. The
brass band had the usual attraction for the
crowd of the curious who had gathered
about corridors and Railways. and they
left watching the caucus to hear the music.

and called him blessed. 1t was known
that Wade was opposed to De Young. 1t

vote for Perkins. Chairman Gleaves an
nounced that the roll would be called and
that each legislator woald announce the
name of his candidate for United States
Senator, the candidate receiving the high

caucus nominee. The poll of the caucus
showed forty-five votes for Perkins, the
full strength Of the caucus.

and tiger the caucus adjourned.
With majority of one of the Republ-

with at least six others, the caucus pro-
poses to whip into line enough TO nominate

than enough for ch oice. There are SO
Republicans and Independent Republicans
in the Legislature. That leaves 3S votes

but there are at least three of these who
will not support his candidacy.

Soon after the caucus was called to order
