ton; and saying he had named Martin

The governor gives as his reasons his
opinion that the appointment of Mr.
Clark by the lieutenant governor was
tainted by collision and fraud.
The dispatches are practically the
same, that to Mr.. Clark reading:
Il have this day disregarded and
revoked your appointment as United
States senator made by Governor
Spriggs on the 18th instant, as being
tainted with collision and fraud, and
have this day appointed Hon. Martin
Maginnis. United States senator to fill
the vacancy caused by your resigna-
ton"
Those to Senators Frye and Chandler
are of the same tenor, notifying them
of his action. The governor also sent
formal protest to Senator Chandler
detailing his reasons. He has also is
sued an open latter to the people of
the state denying he had any knowI-
edge of the contemplated step when he
left Montana for California He saws
he went to California at the request
Of Thomas r. Kinds to look into the
title of some mining property in which

Finlen $1,000 and thought by going ne

piled on the Indebtedness.

Ter to press the resolutions as present
ed follows:

tween the members of the senate COM
mittee on privileges and elections and

ton on the committee resolution tomor-
row, and that if Mr. Clarl6's creden-
tails arrive. previous to that time they
shall not be presented before Monday.

preceded by discussion of the various
points involved in the controversy, in
Guiding the proper course to be pursued
with reference to Mr. Clark's creden-
tiaiS when they are presented to the
senate.
The principal discussion was. how
ever, based upon the resolution direct

to a seat in the senate"
The vote on the resolution stood to

tus casting their votes in the negative
The senator's expressed the opinion that
the resignation of Mr.. Clark had the
effect of definitely settling the case
and that the senate was not called
upon TO take further action
Senators Chandler Hoar, Burrows
MeComas. CaffeTy and Turiey took the
opposite view.
There was no vote on the question OF
the reference of the credentials under
the lieutenant governors appointment
but there is no doubt that the commit
