WEALTH OF SENATORS
HUGE TOTAL WHICH LEGISLA-
TORS CAN SCORE.
M EN- bers of Upper Branch of Congress
Who Are Worth Fortunes Which
Mount Up Into the Millions
Of Dollars,

The United States senate has an
embarrassment Of riches, at least the
! general public Is disposed 10 view
| with disfayor. If not suspicion. the
fact that the members of that legisIa-
| tive body Of the nation should possess
and control 50 much of the country
wealth.
If one should take tablet and pencil
and make a financial census OF the
upper branch OF congress. they would
| discover that SO members. less than
one-haf of the total membership, are
easily worth $4,000 900, showing that
the clubbing OF the senate by some
as the "mllllonaire's club is not with
out warrant. A partial list of mem
hers would read about as follows
William A. Clark, 100000. 600

Stephen B Elkins, 100000, ooo-rall-

George P. Wetmore, s5000000.
Others whose wealth is counted in
the millions, but the exact amount Of
which is not known, are: Philandef

Warren and Reed Smoot, OF Utah. who
is about to be barred FROM his seat

To this list should be added thu
names of Frank b. Brandegee, OF
Connecticut; Charles A. Culberson, Of
Texas; Lee s Overman Of North
Carolina; Henry f. Burnham, of New
Hampshire; William p. Dillingha n,
of Vermont, and Frank P. Flint. of
California. for their wealth comes
close to the million dollar mark, if it
does not largely exceed that sum.
Then there is a long list of names
of those who are Independently rich
Such members could schedule easily
above the hundred thousand dollar
mark, and from that figure it would
run up in many cases to 5000 goo and
more. Among such are Morgan G

vlncennes, July 31.--In one of the
prettiest and most exciting games o.
the season the locals won in the 1911
inning this afternoon from Cairo by
one lonely. maasley run
For nine innings Johnson, of thC
visitors, pitched superb ball. In the
tenth and eleventh innings he pulled
himself out of bad holes but in the
twelfth he got in one from which he
could not escape anG after desperate
effort the locals succeeded in getting
one man around the circuit.
II was a pitchers battle and both
Johnson and Chenault showed up In
almost faultless form. The former
struck out eight men and the latter
seven. Johnson had two wild pitches
ana gave four first base passes; Che.
nault hit one and had two wild
pitches and walked only one.
The game was characterized by
beautiful fielding and both sides put
a world OF ginger and vigor in their
work. The whole Twelve innings were
filed with spectacular and interesting
plays and Vincennes made the only
error IN the whole game.
In the twelfth McClain got hit
Two wild pitches we're then made on
which McClain got two bases. Wilkin.
son then made single which scored
McClain and finished the game.
Four bases were stolen on Quiesser

tells of an occasion when the humor

attend literary" dinner In Indlanap

that city.
Riley had been told of to take
In to dinner the sister OF his host, ar

The conversation touching upon the
beauties of Chaucer. about whom .
certain set Of the city was then cul
tivating a fad, a spirited discussion
ensued during which the bewildereG
sister caught from time to time only
the name "Chaucer."
At last she whispered to Riley:
Who Is this Mr.. Chaucer they're
talking about so much? Is he very
popular In society,""
Madam" solemnly Responded
Riley, that man did something tina

An Estimate of 1880, 900 Bales.

Under date of Nov. 10 Messrs.
Latham, Alexander & CO., of New
York, put forth an estimate of H.
100000 bales as the cotton crop OF
1906-'07. "This result they say,
els the average of more than 5000
estimates addressed to us by reliable
bankers, merchants, planters and cot
ton buyerS-reSidents Of the different
eotton-growing countries in the South
and We regard it as cOrrest as it is
possible TO obtain at this date The
crop of 1905 '06 is given as 11,346.-
900 bales. The government report of
acreage this year Is stated as 1885,
AS acres larger than last year. This
paragraph is quoted from the circu-
lar referred to: ''The receipts to date
have been 4,622, 500 bales against A.
464, 1916 bales last year-an increase
OF l58,486 bales, and with a proper
tomato increase until the end of the
season the total yield of the crop
would be 11,747,749 bales" This is
confusing to us. The total of 11,747..
749 bales just quoted does not square
with the estimate of 12,150,000. There
is of course an explanation of the
discrepancy but We do not understand
it, unless, indeed, Messrs. Latham
Alexander & Co., expect the proper
tionate increase In receipts from this
date to the end of the season to be
greater than during the correspond
