Wlsconsi:l's Governor yy.4l Go to the
se:-ata, lut Viii Dslay Taking
HIS Seat.

Madison. Wis, Dec. G.--After read
tl:g his message to the legislature, Gov.
"a folelte l..aue a sIa.ement that he
would accept :he United States sena-
torship. TO which ne was elected by
the legislature at the last session. He
stated that during this special session
or at least at its close he would resign
as governor and accept the commits
sion as United States senator.
He then made a short statement
declaring that certain fixed obliga-
tions bound him to continue as
governor, as laws involving millions
of dollars were being challenged in
the courts, and legislation vital to the
state was pending. He could not
offer more than a qualified acceptance.
The close of the session found the liti-
cation undecided, he said, and the
new laws untried. Adverse decisions
in the circuit court might call prompt
ly for curative legislation, and the
administration of new laws might dis
close defects requiring immediate
remedies. Every reason made it his
plain duty to await the circuit court de-
cisioa and the contest over the new
laws.
