rive Home Tuesday Evenlng-rrip
Was Succrssful.

Richmond, Ind. Nov. eS.-President
RoOsevelt's special train arrived here
at s:45 O'Clock, leaving a few minutes
later. After a soiourn Of two days
in St Louis which proved an expe-
rience thoroughly delightful and al.
most unique, President Roosevelt now
is speeding toward Washington. where
his train is scheduled to arrive at
seven O'Clock tomorrow evening. The
president, Mrs. Roosevelt and all the
members of the party are congratu-
lating themselves upon the success Of
the trip which was regarded by many
with serious apprehension. President
Roosevelt has expressed his perfect
satisfaction with the arrangements
made for his safety. comfort and con-
venience and just before his train
pulled out Of the exposition grounds.
last night, he congratulated and
thanked President Francis and other
exposition officials and the officers who
were his personal attendants for the
admirable work they had accomplished.
Secretary Loeb, on whom fell the great
task of perfecting the arrangements
for the trip and for the safety of the
president, now that the strain Of re-
sponsibility so far as the visit to the
fair is concerned has been removed, is
feeling thoroughly satisfied. Few
stops will be made en- route to Wash
ington and II is likely the president
will make no extended remarks at
any Of them.

Peabody Plans To
Hold State Senate

Denver, Colo, Nov. 2G-It is an
nounced by the Peabody managers
that they will surely have the senate
in the coming legislature and this is
the plan they have formed to secure
a majority in that body: Throw out
enough precincts in Denver to seat
three Peabody senators; count out
John Martin OF Pueblo; count out
Charles B. Ward OF Boulder. This
programme will be carried out, 1t is
claimed, by the state canvassing
board.
The supreme court is to be asked
to throw out the Denver precincts
and issue orders to the elections
commission not to certify returns
rom them to the state canvassing
board. At present the Democrats
have nine holdover senators. They
claim they have elected ten. This
makes nineteen, while the Peabody
men have sixteen, il the three from
Denver are conceded to them. II the
Peabody plan to unseat Martin and
Ward is carried, the Democrats will
have seventeen, while the Peabody
people will have eighteen.
The main object in securing con.
troll Of the senate is that Peabody
may appoint two new supreme court
justices, who will be Immediately
confirmed before Peabodys term ex.
pires, because 1t is feared they will be
needed in the stirring events which
may center around the settlement OF
the governorship.
1t is said the republican managers
will throw out a couple Of Demo.
cratic senator's in retaliation for the
way the Democrats threw out Sena-
tors Dick and Mcdonald two years
ago.
