1t produces a white spark which will

NO ST. LOUIS REINFORCEMENT
Circuit Court Declines to Follow Sen.
atorlal Redistrieting Plan Sug-
gested by Attorney General.

st. Louis, Missouri.-The circuit
court In banc declined to follow the
apportiQnment of senatorial districts
for the city Of st. Louis as prepared
by Attorney General Major and Sec.

The court held that inasmuch as
the city had sufficient population to
warrant the allotment of seven sena.
tors to st. Louis it would refuse to
make any apportionment whatever.
The matter came up when Jesse w.
Barrett, a member of a political Or
ga~nization, applied to the court in
general term and asked that the sem
atorial districts he re-aranged in ac-
cordance with the constitutional pro-
visions.
The matter has been fought out for
the past two years. When the leg
islature failed to adopt a bill provid.
ing for a arrangement of the dis
tricts the duty devolved upon the
governor, secretary of state and the
attorney general.
Gov. Hadley refused to participate
