 If this purpose Is persisted in, it will mean that Thursdays session will be ex- tended to, and, if necessary, through the night.
 1t would mean test of endurance be- tween the friends and the opponents of the measure and either continuous speaking by the opposing senators, or d filibuster by them. On the other hanl. the supporters of the measure would be required to maintain a quorum as a re- quisite to doing any business.
 The popular electionists have consid cred all these points. and say they know just where they stand. They express more confidence in success than they have manifested for some time This re- newed hope is due to canvass of the democratic side of the Senate, which con- vinces them that even with the Suther- land amendment Incorporated some demo- cratic votes will still be assured
 That amendment provides for ultimate federal control of senatorial elections ia case Congress should decide such control to be desirable.

It now appears cer- tair that the Moody dispenasry bill will be made a special order for the same day or which the Parks bill will be consitl- cred. According to the plan its time will be at Il o'clock, the Parks bill at noon. E The Moody bill will be defeated 1t now appears certain. At noon the Parks bill vii; be presented for battle and on ac- count of previous defeat of the Moody bill it is probable that no substitute will b1 offered. The indications are that theI will be no filibustering in the senate ano the fight will be on the issue alone. It nay happen that no amendments will be offered. One senator, it is understood. is thinking of offering an amendment preventing the effectiveness of Parks bill in cities of less than 1OCo people. But this amendment if it Is offered will be beaten, according to the plan of the majority. The local optionsts of the senate are ab- sclutely certain that their plans will be carried out to the letter.
