Gain Governorship.
Chicago, Jan. 22.-Conferences which
began in Chicago today probably will
determine whether Senator Hopkins
can be returned to the upper house at
Washington. When the legislature adj
journed yesterday until Tuesday with
the senatorial deadlock showing no
signs of breaking, the leaders with the
exception Of Governor Deneen departed
for Chicago. It is by no means GER
tain the governor will not be called
to this city before Tuesday to partici-
pate in the important councils. Mean
while those who, to be rid of Deneen
as governor, would make him senator,
almost gave up hope. The governor
consistently refused to be considered
in the race. The nature of the next
move can scarcely be conjectured.
