ELECTRIC VEHICLES
IN STRONG DEMAND

The enormous demand for electric
vehicles Is well illustrated in letter
just out by General Manager George
T. Odell of the Consolidated Wagon &
Machine Company. He states that in
three of the largest cities of the United
States 1900 electric vehicles are in
use. The growth of popularity is due
to their cleanliness, the absence Of I'M
pleasant odors, and the great percent
age Of days in the year that the ma
chine can be worked.
TAe Car Supreme" manufactured
by the Columbus Buggy Company, and
carried by the Consolidated Wagon ~
Machine Company, is one Of the most
popular electric vehicles known. Mr..
Odell. in paying Il testimonial TO its
value, says that he accomplished $500
miles of travel in eleven months with
I'm the confines of Salt Lake ana Davis
Counties, with one of these machines
He adds that the car in question had
been given hard usage or ne has no
doubt that 10th the battery and tires
would have covered more than 5000
miles. The expense for wearing out
and breaking mechanical parts on this
vehicle during the period named was
less than $500.
The Consolidated Wagon & Machine
Company Is having a heavy demand
on ali lines of autos this year, and the
Car Supreme" will be among their
leaders.

Mr. Foraker was quickly on his feet.
declaring that the Wisconsin senator
had violated the rules of the senate,
and should take his seat. After some
skrmishing Mr. Gore moved that the
senator from Wisconsin be allowed to
resume the floor and proceed with his
speech in order.
Rollcall was had on the motion,
which resulted in 46 senators voting
in the affirmative and ono, (Mr. Forak-
err in the negative.
Mr.. La Toilette, who did not vote,
Immediately resumed his speech
Mr.. La Toilette said he believed he
was warranted in what he said He

had voted alone and he liked the man
who fights alone when necessary.
Mr.. Foraker, saying he had under.
stood the senator to say he might he
here six weeks, confessed" that he
had seized upon chance to stop him
as the weather was hot and he wanted
TO go home.
Protesting against any confession in
the chamber. Mr. La Toilette sat on
the arm of his chair and said he did
not propose to unduly tax his streng III
or to speak without a quorum. Later
he thought he heard talking In the gal
cry and, renewing his request for alb
solute quiet. the vice president called
for order in the galleries.
Senator Gallinger read a rule of the
senate which permits the privilege of
the floor 10 clerks of senators only
while engaged in official business. He
declared that Senator La Follette's
clerk had been on the floor for two
hours counting senators and reporting
the absences OF a quorum to the sena-
tor from Wisconsin, thus aiding tho
senator In his filibuster tactics.
Mr.. La Toilette said that If his clerk
was not properly in the chamber he
would have him retire.
The president decided that tho
clerk was not entitled To the floor.
Mr.. La Toilette spent much time
reading extracts from remarks by MIR
Aldrlch in the senate in 1907. In which
MT Aldrlch appeared as critizing Ger
tain bonds as of too nuctuatinE nature
to be held by banks and yet. the Wis

Demanded Twenty Roll Calls--During
Day Threatened to Keep Senate
In session Three Weeks.

Washington, May 29.--it has been a
long time since the senate has been tied
up by hllbuster with such slender
support as was in evidence today when
Senator La Toilette undertook to de-
feat the conference report ON the Al
drich-Nreeland currency bill by talking
it to death. The report was brought
w shortly after l o'clock, and Mr. La
Toilette took the floor He insisted that
a quorum should be maintained at all
times, and up To 6 O'Clock he had de-
manded 20 rollcalls. The house was
able to obtain more or less relaxation,
and mt the same time keep the support
ers of the bill in their seats. The heat
was excessive, and many were very
restless under this restraint 1t soon
became evident that the Republicans
would have difficulty in maintaining
the presence of a majority and 1t was
just as apparent that proceedings would
be suspended whenever the necessary
II senators were not present.
LA TOILETTE ILL.
Mr.. La Toilette complained Of his
recent illness, and during much of the
day leaned strongly upon the arm of
his chair, half sitting as he talked. He
