FIELD UNITED

FORAKER STILL IN RING
MUCH GOSSIP AS TO THE OUT
COME or THE FIGHT.
FORAKER STILL IN RING

Columbus. o.. Dec. ss.-The prospect OF
a settlement by caucus this week OF the
senatorial fight, winch Is stirring ONO
Congressman Theodore E Burton an
nounced that he was opposed to the plan
of bringing the Republican members of the
legislature together in Joint conference on
saturday next. Tie supporters Of Charles
p Taft last night demanded that a eau
Gus be held Saturday and are circulating
a petition to that effect.
Mr.. Burton let IT be known today that
he is entirely satisfied with the progress
OF his campaign and that he is not con-
choice tpoa the legislative leaders ten
DAYS IN advance of the time set for the
senatorial balloting to begin. United
States Senator Foraker has already an
nounced himself as opposed to caucus
and General q. Warren Keller, another OF
the candidates. has also taken an opp0s-
fng position. thus leaving the Taft sup
porfers practically alone
II seems doubtful now that decisive
conference will be held at any time. Mae
than ever il seems that the fight Is 10 be
taken to the floor OF the legislature, anu
this turn is particularly pleasing to Sen
ator Foraker The Foraker forces believe
that the contest Will ultimately resolve
itself into a choice between Senator For
aker and Mr. Burton.
Gossip Concerning Contest.
There is much talk Of Senator Foraker
throwing his strength to Mr.. Burton in
the Cleveland congressman and the brotA-
er OF President-elect Taft. This talk Is
based largely upon the befief that Senator
Foraker is planning TO make his real fight
for another term IN the senate two years
hence, when a successor TO Senator
Charles Dick viii be chosen. Geographical
considerations have great deal to do
with the choice of United States senators
in Ohio. the northern and southern ends
of the state each claiming the privilege CT
naming a representative in the upper
branch of the national congress The cleo
ton of Mr.. Burton from Cleveland would
leave the field clear for a southern man
in 1911. The election of Mr.. Taft would
make it practically an impossibility for
Mr. Foraker To run two years hence, botn
men being residents OF Cincinnati. The
geographical turn of affairs deeply affects
Senator Dick and his coming to Columbus
20 look after his own interests has been
eagerly awaited.
The real situation seems to be that none
of the candidates controls at this time a
sufficient number of votes and that the
senatorship is far from settled. Former

was formally brought forward tonight as
a candidate.
