one important measure hdS
the naming of a candidate TO receive the
complimentary vote for United States
Senator. On Tuesday three of the mem
bers sent a telegram TO Franklin K. Lane,
asking him if they could place his name
before the joint session. Other members
felt bit slighted in not being asked TO
sign their names to the request and quite
a little dissensiOn was the result. For a
while it looked that the minority would
split, but the differences were settled and
il was agreed that Lane should receive
the full complimentary vote.
Lane replied TO the message and said
that he would be pleased TO have the vote
cast for Thomas J. Geary. The answer
cid not sound right to some of the mem
bers and the original telegram was sought
for When ii was produced the answer
was more readily understood. 1t was
seen that Lanes reply was forced one
and that in order TO uphold his dignity
he could answer in no other way. The
| telegram read:
"Wfl you accept the complimentary
vote? If not. suggest some one"
Nothing was left for Mr.. Lane to do
but suggest, and suggest he did. When
/ the matter was brought up to-day three
/ Of the members were advocating the name
I Of Geary. but their talk never got above
! a whisper The Lane faction showed
such strength that the men who were
