LOOKS MORE LIKE COALITION.
Five Regulars Willing to Agree to Plan, It Is
Said-One More Would Finish Addicks.

Dover Del Jan. 22.-Two more ineffective bal
lots were taken to-day by the Delaware legislat-
ure in the struggle to elect two United States
Senators The only change from yesterday was
gain of two votes by ex-senator Higgins, for
the short term, he receiving the two cast before
for T Coleman Du Pont. The result of to-day's
balIoting was follows:

Notwithstanding the urgent appeals Of Senator
Hanna and others to the regular Republicans not
to vote for a Democrat the coalition plan may yet
be the one adopted to defeat Addcks. The regu-
lars are more in favor of the plan now than they
were Monday. when the caucuses were held.
Individual members of the faction approached
certain Democrats to-day, with intimation that
an agreement might be reached next week It is
authoritatvely stated that five of the eight regu-
lars ready 10 agree to the plan, and one more
would be sufficient for election.
The regulars demand to name the Democratic
candidate may prove stumbling block which
will prevent the breaking of the deadlock.
