SEN. DeLONG
TO HELP DELAY
THE MEASURE
Especial TO The Sentinel. }

Denver, March 10.-The temper
ance forces are feeling good over the
victory won in the senate at late
hour yesterday afternoon when by a
vote of Is to 10 the Wardlaw bill,
the house bill, providing the amend
ments to the local option law, was
referred to the committee on judic-
larry. a committee known to be hostile
to the measure. Senator Tobin. of
Montrose. is one of the members of
this committee.
1t will be remembered that a few
days ago the Cary bill, the senate
bill, was referred to the committee on
state affairs or committee which is
favorable to the amendments and
thereby the temperance people lost
out. The action of the senate yes
terday regarding the Wardlaw bill in
dicates very strongly that neither the
Wardlaw bill or the Cary bill will
succeed in getting through the senate
In the senate this morning Sena-
tor Scott moved that the Hicks direct
primary measure be advanced to the
head of the calendar. The motion
was defeated by a vote of ) to 1S
and Senator Horace T. DeLong of
Grand Junction was one of the sena-
tors who voted to block the progress
and advancement of the direct pri-
mary law. Senator Tobin of Mont
rose voted for it. All the votes cast
for the motion were democratic votes.
The above action makes it certain
that an agreement has been entered
into between the republicans and five
democratic senators whereby all leg
islation on important measures will
be blocked and delayed until the Be
shoar-Barela contest is finally and
forever decided. Senator DeLong is
in the combine
The senate judiciary committee to-
day reported favorably on the bank
guaranty bill which was reported a
few days ago from the house. and
gave the bill place on the calendar.
The Hicks registration bill. very
important measure, was passed by the
house this morning after some discus
sion.
Lieutenant Governor Fitzgerald
has not yet received an answer from
Attorney General Barnett as to
whether he can vote legally in the
Beshoar-Barela contest. 1t is be-
lieved that 1t viii be proven that the
lieutenant governor has a right to
vote. in which case he viii vote to
seat Beshoar. and thereby the cele-
brated contest viii be ended.
The day has been very busy one
in both houses.

The GORDON
CASE in HANDS
OF THE JURY.

When court adjourned last q al
the defense had not finished thesSp5rk
of examining its witnesses. s. ourt
opened at Q O'Clock this morSS & and
within the first hour of ts session
the taking of evidence We complet-
ed. An hour was oeclsS~-d by the
court and the attorneyrS>n preparing
the instructions TO tkT Jury. About
II o'clock the arguments began. 1t
was not until late this afternoon that
the case reached the jury.
The first argument, a very able
one. was made by Deputy District At
torney Fry for the prosecution. He
did not conclude until the noon re-
cess.
This afternoon the court opened at
o'clock and Attorney George w
Bullock spoke for the defense His
argument was quite lengthy and
very forceful.
Then followed Attorney J. s. Car
nahan for the defense. He, too.
made powerful plea for the de-
fendant
The closing argument was made
by District Attorney Logan and his
arraignment of Gordon was scathing
and his denunciation of the shooting
as cold-blooded and unjustifiable was
powerful.
The case went to the jury at about
pm. Many predict that no YER
dict will be returned under several
hours.
The court room was crowded this
afternoon by people anxious to hear
the arguments.
1t has been a hard-fought case
from start to finish, and it is hard
to forecast the verdict.
The Gordon case is the last Grim
inal case to be tried at this term of
the district court. The convicted
prisoners will probably be sentenced
| by Judge Shackleford tomorrow.
The civil docket will be taken up
