THREE BALLOTS FOR SENATOR
BUT NO CHOICE.
Hunter Issues Statement, in Which
He Admits That He Has No
Chance of Election.

FRANKFORT Ky), April 20.-A
sensation was created everywhere just
before the time for the Senate to meet
this morning 1t was known that Hag-
En- the new Democratic Senator, had
arrived with his certificate, and would
be sworn in this morning, but when
the train came in it bore Senator Ogil-
vie, the sick Democrat, who has not
been here before this session This
made the Senate full for the first time,
there being 1873 members in the joint
session, seventy Republicans and six
ty-eight Democrats. and seventy votes
being necessary to a choice This put
Hunter one vote farther from election
and made more certain the impossi-
bility of his election.
When the joint Assembly met to-day
both the new Senator and Senator Ogil-
vie were on hand Ogilvie looked like
dying man. A preliminary roll call
showed present and impaired 10S and
- necessary to a choice The fifty
first ballot stood: Hunter %, Black
burn 80, Martin y, Boyle ;, Stone /.
Two more ballots We're taken with the
same result.
HUNTERS HOPELESS FIGHT.
LOUISVILLE Ky). April 20 a
special to the Evening POST from
Frankfort says:
DR.. Hunter, the Republican nominee
for United States Senator, this morn

Il have gone over the whole situa-
ton carefully and admit l don't know
where my one vote is to come from.
Under the circumstances, I am willing
to say l shall not prolong the fight be-
You'd a reasonable time when I see
that it is hopeless. The proceedings

nothing to do with my change of front
1t has not been a factor in the fight,
except to solidify and strengthen the
loyalty of my friends. 1t was simply a
transparent conspiracy to defame me-

ANNOUNCING HIS WEDDING.
But He Was Wise Enough to Know
That Cabiegrams Come High.

When man gets married away from
home he naturally feels it necessary to
acquaint his home folks with the joy
full news as soon as possible. John
Liddell, the handsome Englishman who
led Miss Marion Hellyer to the altar in
Riverside last Saturday, before a large
party of faShionables, was thoroughly
impressed with his duty in this respect,
and SO he hunted up the nearest tele-
graph office and set to compose the
message telling Of his good fortune
Some men would have gone into de-
tails to the extent of naming the bride
and the time and the place, and solicit
ing the parental blessing But tele-
graph companies do not handle mes
sages for nothing, no matter how felic-
itous they may be in their character.
and, as everybody knows, every addi-
tional mile Travelled by the message
makes it that much more profitable to
the grasping corporation.
Inasmuch as Mr. LiddelPs home is in
Shanghai, China he prudently refrained
from committing the fault of verbosity.
OF course his people were expecting
something in confirmation of what had
been discussed in letters from time to
Tune, and he found it much easier on
that account to practice brevity and
economy without sacrificing the mean
ing of his message This is what he
sent flashing over the wires and under
the ocean to its long journey to Shan
ghai:
"Hurrah,"
At any other time the receipt of such
telegram or cablegram by Mr.. Lid
| dells people might have caused them
some concern, but the happy groom
was thoroughly confident Of being I'M
derstood. He has money TO burn
and could have cabled a full account of
the wedding without creating any
financial distress to himself. AS it was
there was nothing cheap in the mes
sage.

filled If the senior Maryland Senator's

politicians are correct in their statements,
Senator German will refuse to retire
from Maryland politics and will decline
to.agreesswith those who considered his
defeat OH Tuesday last final Knockout
for him.
One OF the shrewdest Of the shrewd city
politicians said day or two ago that
I'VE will have this fight all over again
two years hence. German has his eye on
the Democratic nominatior for president
in 1900. No appointment or place which
he might be able to got outside the State
would aid him in this aspiration. II he

In what way could he even hope to ac-
complish the redemption .of the State
and again enthrone the deposed bossess
His friends say the solution of this
problem is very simple. They assert that
as soon rs he retres from the Senate he
will pr oceed to repair the machine and
get it In good working order. Then he
