THEY ARE ALL IN THE DARK.
TALIAFERRO HAS NEWsPAPERS
AND PAsCO, THE PEOPLE.

But Nobody Knows where the Leg
fsIature Is "atr-The Majority of
Its Members Are Not Committed to
Any CandIdate-BIOxham Looked
on as the Most Likely Dark Horse.
Pasco Could Likely Out-Distanee
TaIiaferrO Alone.
Tallahassee. Fla March 29.-The Florida
Legislature meets here next Tuesday, and
its session will be marked by a contest
for a United States senatorship.
Besides Pasco and Call there is only one
other avowed candidate, and he is Mr..
James p. Taliaferro of Jacksonville II
Mr.. Call is not entered in the race at the
start, and no other name is placed before
the legislature. either Mr.. Pasco or Mr..
Taliaferro will be elected on the first bal
lot It must be remembered that this is
a straightout Democratic fight, there be-
ing no member Of any other party in the
legislature. As between Pasco and Talia-
ferro, a prominent Democratic politician
said recently:
Pasco has the people, but God knows who
has the legislature"
Never before, when a United States SEN
ator was to be elected has Florida Leg
islature contained so many members not
committed to any candidate, so late as a
week before the session. Most of the best
informed political observers and prophets,
it is true, when pressed to an expression
of opinion, say that if the race narrows
down to Pasco and Taliaferro the for
mer will be returned as his own success
sor.
The most interesting feature of the con-
test is that about which least that is def
mite can be said-the possibility of a dark
horse, and the name of that dark horse.
The organization of the two houses, and
especially of the Senate, will have, it is
believed. a very important bearing upon
the outcome of the contest.
There is no lieutenant governor of Flor
ida, and in case OF a vacancy in the COVER
norship, the president of the state Senate
would succeed to that Office. An ambitious
and influential man elected president of
the Senate might easily. in the present sit
uation. throw his strength to Gov. Blox-
ham, who has often been mentioned in
connection with this senatorship.
Gov. Bloxham, once his name was placed
before the legislature, would prove very
formidable opponent to Messrs. Pasco and
Taliaferro-the strongest, perhaps, that
could be found. This plan is regarded by
some of the best politicians in Florida as
the one probable, and not altogether un-
likely game on the boards in this now eX
citing senatorial contest.

CHEARs DID NOT HAVE TINE.
May Get Into Trouble Through Dis
Regarding a Subpoena.

Columbus, Ga, March 29.-On Monday
morning the officials of the Superior
Court, now in session at Cusseta, in Chat
tahoochee county. came 10 this city with
a summons for Mr.. c. w. Chears. general
freight agent of the Central of Georgia
Railway, to appear before that court as
a witness in the case of the state against
Mrs. Levette. charged with doing the
business of an emigration agent without
having taken out a license.
The summons was handed Mr.. Chears
by a baiiff, but he refused to recognize
1t, stating he had other business to attend
to and could not go to Cusseta. The bai-
Tiff reported this fact to Judge Littlejohn,
who ordered the bailiff to return to this
city and bring Mr. Chears back If it took
the whole of Columbus to arrest him, and
if necessary 10 put handouts on him.
When the deputy returned he found that
Mr. Chears had left the city for Annis-
ton, Ala. The friends of Mr.. Chears fear
he has gotten himself into serious trou-
bic, and the final outcome of the matter
will be watched with much interest.
