vacancy. Seven ballots in joint session
were taken Saturday in effecting i
decision and the closing scenes of the
legislature have not been paralleled in
the history of Missouri politics. When
it became evident that Warner would
be the choice, the democrats, who had
steadfastly supported Cockrell through
out, locked horns with the republicans,
who were split on the caucus nominee.

Kerens and over (. score Of other NOM
inees, and the assembly chamber be-
came a place of general riot. Efforts
were made to stop roll call on the
seventh ballot. several attempted to
tear the presiding officer from the
chair, and the democrats tried to effec:
an adjournment without election. The
time for sine die adjournment had been
set for 3 o'clock by concurrent reso!u-
ton and as the hour approached the
clock was smashed in the melee. Amid
an uproar that almost bafi1ed control
at times, the seventh ballot of the day
was taken, resulting in the election
of Mai. Warner. The vote stood:
Warner, 81; Cockrell, SO; Niedring-
haus, /. The total vote was ITS, maxi
ing So necessary to a choice, and War
ner received three votes more than the
majority. -,
Mai. Warner was United States dis
trict attorney for the Kansas City dis
trict for several years and is we'll
known in political and legal circles.
He had been grand commander OF the
G. A. r. and held many other positions
of honor. He was republican nominee
for governor in 1895 when William J.
Stone was elected to that Office. ~

Very great Importance is attached
to the recent discovery that an ordin'

messed into service, in place OF a

the purpose of transmitting messages
by the wireless method, which was
made by Maj. Squire, Of the United
