TAFT AND CoRTELYoU.
First Tflt Between Friends of Two
 and Former Wins


 and Fermer Wins.
 Columbus. Ohio. ,sOct. 19-(SpeciaI)-- The gloom produced at the Taft head quarters recently by the failure of the Taft followers to capture the delegates from the Eighth Michigan District, was dispelled by the news from the Third District of Virginia telling of the first brush between the Taft and CorteIyou forces.
 The fight in Virginia came up over filling vacancy on the district cons- mittee and the Taft element won out by electing John C. Luce, a strong Taft man, in the face of determined opposition on the part of the Cortelyou followers. Both Taft and anti-Taft resolutions were offered and both were tabled, but the Taft people claim that they could easily have forced the adop- ton of their resolution but they were content to elect Taft man, withou, carrying the fight any further.
 The tilt in Virginia is taken by the Taft men as an evidence of the cor rectness of the theory that there is a Cortelyou boom in the South and that 1t is being carefully nursed.

 Mir. Reese is one of the five members of the Committee, and he will leave here Sunday Afternoon to be present.
 The Commission immediately after being created by the last Florida Leg islature, held session of about three 4aanti1s and went as far into the in- vestiration as possible without the tes- tirnony of ex-Governors Bloxham and Fleming and Attorney General Lamar, all of whom were absent from the State at the time. Adjournment was then taken until they could be se-l cured, and now the investigation is to be resumed and their testimony heard. This will complete the work of the Commission, and a report will be for initiated.
 It Is believed in many sections of the State that Governor Broward will cali special session of the Legisla- ture to hear this report of the Commis- sion. and also that 1t will be found that the funds have been properly handled during his administration.

Many legislative committee meet lnsrs were called yesterday, but few were held because the legislators m &aa main had become tired of being sfatesmen,, and had gone home for 6ay of complete rest among the home folk When yesterday, a legislative reEess day, had ended. but little had been accomplished toward the pig task of the present Legislature.
 The Senate committee on Commerce and Common Carriers intended to meet and the call had gone out, but quo- found by hunting high and low.

 This committee did not kill the newspaper amendment yesterday, but the only reason they did not was be- cause there was no meeting. The poor thing was only given recess until Monday morning. Before the Senate meets Monday 1t will be put to death The slaughter will probably take place at the Capitol. Then the committee. having filled It's orders from the Governor. will report the bill favosably with an amendment. ..
 It is possible some Of the important administration railroad amendment! will come mp tommorw in the Senate for a final reading But the probabil' ities are the Senate will not get tha far, and that the big bills, will no come up until day or two later,
 There will be no fight on them. Th' Senate will vote sOlidly for the rail road measures endorsed by the admin tsfration. There will doubtless be con siderable oratory, however.

sandor's Peonage Case.

Another side to the Sandor case de< veloped today. Sandor Is the man who. Wednesday. appeared before tho United States Court and voluntarily surrendered and asked to be allowed to commence serving his sentence ol thirteen months for conspiracy to coms init peonage.
 The cases had been appealed by ths Jackson Lumber Company, i've othert having been convicted st the samG time, and all were out on bond.
 Today Judge Reeves, leading count sel for the company. stated that he req ceived a wire from the company sevs efal days ago requesting that he cont to Lockhart and bring a United Stated deputy marshal with him, as the com- pany desired to surrender a man whd was under $3.0o0 bond and who was acting suspicious. Judge Reeves wired back that he could not come to Lock- hart, but that the bondsmen had the authority to bring Sandor to Pensa- cola and surrender him.
 After the arrival here Sandor, in company with J. W. LaMaistre, whd brought him here, went to the ofties of Judge Reeves, where he asked the latter to use his influence with the manager of the company not to surs render him. It appears that SandoE did not want to surrender: as he claim ed. unless he found that his bondsmen intended turning him over to the au.. thorities, and in that case he preferred to voluntarily surrender.
