The changes on this ballot were that
SENATOR'S Knox and Shakespeare left
Willis and voted for DR.. Chandler.
The 46th ballot was taken, but it was
the same as the 45th.
THE rho AXE SATISFIED.
For several days II has been whis-
pored that Senator Blakely and Repre-
sentative Ewing and Frizzell would not |
go to any senatorial candidate entered |
by the Regulars until Senator Knox
satisfied the trio by voting for their |
candidate, DR.. Joseph H. Chandler.
Today Senator Knox complied, and
nearly all the other Regulars followed
suit, and now, 1t. is said, the trio are
satisfied. Whether the stubborn trio
will vote with the Regulars tomorrow
remains to be seen.
