SALEM, Oct. 4.-Congres sman Ellis
and Senator Mcbride are both here
and are taking more or less fntesese In
the senatoriai fight. Everything is
being done by the Corbett and atnSi-
Corbest forces to further their res-
peative ends, and the ground Is being
stubbornly contested. The outlook
for Corbett to be elected is growing
slim. Either George or Simon stands
a better show than he. Twenty new
clerks were sworn in this forenoon.

NO ELECTION
OF SENATOR
Corbett Was Ten Short Ct
Election On First Ballot.

SALEM, Oct. 4.-Both houses balloted
on senator today separately, and the
combined vote of both houses was as
follows:
w. Il. Corbett. So.
NJ. &. George, l6.
Alfred S. Bennett. "a.
This would indicate that Corbett's
chahces of lection are not bright. 1t
is generally believed his full strength
was shown on the first ballot, and not
having received majority of both
houses, it will be difficult for him to
muster additional strength in the
joint convention of both houses when
they shall assemble to vote jointly for
senator.
The democrats, populists and silver
republicans selected Judge A. S. Ben
nett, OF The Dalles, as their choice, and
will probably continue votiug for him
during the session.

The Gallant Admiral Is Killed
Again in Madrid.

The funny Spanish stories about Ameri-
can naval disasters serve to while away
dull moments at the Navy Department.
Sampson. for instance. must be man OF
many lives. Madrid reports for the Sec
ond time that the American squadron has
been destroyed and the gallant admiral
went down in the wreck. 1t happe.,Sd on
Cape Maysi this time. That Sampson
was on shore at Key West yesterday send
ing cablegrams to the Navy Department
did not matter.
These rumors run queer course. A
lot of them are concocted on the London
stock market. Then they are cabled over
here and circulated through Wall Street.
Some scatterbrained correspondent hears
them and through various stages of ad-
dition and establishment they return to
London. Then a solemn news agency
sends them over the continent and the de-
lighted Spanish proceed to give a new
coat Of red paint to old Madrid.
