have everything ready.
But last night some fun-loving
guests of the hotel entered the wedge

DRIVING FINISH
IN SHOOTS CASE
Former Senator Kearns Com
ing With Delegation
VIII Inaugurate Eleventh Hour So-
cial Campaign against the
Mormon Senator.
ARE OLD PoLITICAL ENEMIES

Washington. February g. There
will be driving finish IN the smoot
case on February 20, the date agreed
upon for the vote. Senator Smoot
stated in open senate there is no one
more anxious than he to secure a vote
and Senator Burroughs also says the
same thing. Between these two rests
the point as to whether a vote will
be taken.
Within the past two weeks, and
particularly since Senator Hopkins
and Sutherland have delivered
speeches in behalf of smoot, the lat
ter's stock seems to nave risen. and
his adherents claim that he has at
least 20 votes in his favor, which
fact is responsible for the Michigan
senator delaying the vote.
However within the next few
days former Senator Kearns OF Utah.
themu,ti-milllonair who wasSmoot's
colleague for a brief time in the SEN
ate, will arrive here with a large
delegation of citizens of Utah, and
by missionary work among the men,
bers OF the senate will try to influ-
ence as many votes as he possibly
can against his former colleague.
This delegation left Salt Lake some
time ago, when it appeared that a
vote was to be taken in the senate,
but when they were half way across
the continent the program in the SEN
ate shifted and the vote in the
Smoot case was again postponed.
Senator Kearns is a genial most,
and, not wishing to have his delega-
ton reach Washington until they
could make a twelfth-hour appeal to
the senate, ne TOOK the delegation to
New York, where they are now DO
ing the town, having en- route stop
ped off at Niagara and other points
of interest along the line. It is said
to be Senator Kearns' plan to give a
series of dinners to his former fell
low members of the senate.

OF Samuel j. Tilden, says the Cleve-

by flaw in the Will which he him
self had drawn. He devised $1,000. 900

The intent was plain, but the will
was invalidated and the money went

not been witnessed as required by
the Pennsylvania law.
