favor of unseating Senator w. A..
Clark, of Montana, on a charge Of
bribery in his election. The Com
mittee reported against Quay, of
Pennsylvania, who was appointed
after failing OF election by the Leg
islature, but Quay is said to have
votes enough pledged to him to seat
him in spite of the report. Clark
will not be so fortunate and will
lose the seat that is said to have
cost him Sl5O,OOO Clark is a Dem

This may make some difference.
