MUST BOW TO ADDICKS.
Regulars Have No Other Choice, the

DOVER, Del, Feb. 1.-THE twenty-one
Addicks Republicans in conference to-day
formally replied TO the ten regulars, refus-

the election OF two United States senator's
Concerning Addicks's withdrawal the an
swer says:
1T may be admitted that there was a de-
candidacy of Mr.. Addicks was indeed the
cause OF the political anarchy in this State
or whether IL was in effect a factional
fight for supremacy alone and the spoils Of
office. No part of it's inspiration was due
TO a desire to trade dicker over these
high positions. The time has passed for
such considerations. The situation is clear
Mr. Addicks has withdrawn as candi-
date before this Legislature. There Is no
longer any reason why the party should not

all that he thought about the bill and ne
had one of his glowing sentences cut In

He voted against the bill. For wonder
Mr.. Statesman did not come back at the
gentleman from Johnson, but contented
himself with registering strong aye Tor
the bill.
AS soon as the speaker announced that
the bill had passed Mr.. kirkman, the ma
Jorfty caucus chairman, made the Gus
tomary motion TO reconsider ana taoie,
which was carried, and the bill cannot be
brought up again in the House.
Representative Harrington said last even

defeat the bill in the Senate or to amend 1t
in such manner as TO remove many OF
the features that have proved objectiona bic
TO the Republican members who stood with
him in opposing the making of IL caucus

"I believe that we can at least get the bill

would like to have it changed so that 1t

Representative Bearss, of Peru. who was
one of the Republican boiters, explained
his action after the adjournment of the
forenoon session.
IF it had been a party measure in which
there was some politics, of course i would
