Military tp Remain on Duty.
FRANKFaur Ky, March 17.-Yester-
days sen &,..Il in the senatorial contest
flashed in tho pan. Bitter talk and a fruit
less balloa tells the story, and those feat
ures have been present every day since
the fight began. The scenes however, had
a different setting and to the dramatic per
son@ were added about 400 bluecoats from
Louisville, Lexington and Frankfort. The
salutary effect of this military display
does not appear on the surface, because
the reason for its presence was apprehen-
sion and not the existence of violence
The presence of this armed force was the
subject of numerous resolutions and acri
monious debate in both houses before and
after the joint session. The senate by a
strict party vote, adopted a resolution re-
citing the action of Governor Bradley in
calling out the militia, which was declared
to be without warrant of law, necessity
or justification" and appointing com
mittee headed by Senator Goabel to 'in-
quire into such contempt breach of priv
ilege," and to report to the senate for final
action. This was adopted as u substitute
for resolution offered by Senator Brons-
ton violently denounclng Governor Brad
ley and declaring the purpose of the SEN
ate to suspend all legislation while the
military guard remained in possession of
the capitol. The house got into a tangle
over number of resolutions offered by
both sides all of which were finally with
drawn.
Last night the senate committee on the
impeachment Of Governor Bradley heard
number Of witnesses, MOD of whom tes-
titled that threats had been made by sena-
tors which necessitated the calling out Of
the military. Some predict that the com
mittee will recommend that the governor
be both fined and imprisoned. 1t is not
generally believed, however, that the COM
mittee will dare do more than censure the
governor.
AT the joint session one ballot for United
States senator was taken, to fulfill legal
requirements, after the Democrats and the
Populist member, Poor, had broken a
quorum by refusing to respond to roll call.
Adjutant General Collier announces that
the militia will remain on duty until the
| legislature adjournS.
