DEADLOCK IN SENATE
aALLINeER FAILS or ELECTION
AS PRESIDENT PRO TEMPoRE.
Bacon Gets Democrat Vote-sltua.
uatIon Results From the oppo-
sItIon Of Insurgent Repub-
lcans-Three Paired.

Washington.-The incapacity Of the
Republican party in the senate to con-
troll caucus edict without the aid Of
the Insurgents was demonstrated in
the senate when, after more than two
hours Of effort, and as result OF
seven ballots that body failed to elect
Senator Gallinger of New Hampshire
as president pro tempore to succeed
Senator Frye of Maine.
Mr. Frye's recent resignation was
based on poor health. The deadlock
was due to the opposition Of the insur-
gent Republican senators, FIVE Of
whom voted against and three Of
whom were paired against Mr.. Gal
linger.
Soon after the senate convened
Vice-President Sherman absented him
self from the senate and Senator
Lodge assumed the chair Immediate
ly Senator Cullom, as the chairman Of
the Republican caucus, moved that
the senate proceed to the election Of
a president pro tempore, placing Mr..
Gallinger In nomination. The nomi-
nation of Senator Bacon Of Georgia by
Senator Martin, chairman OF the
Democratic caucus, followed. Sena-
tor La Toilette performed the same
service for Senator Clapp.
Upon the first ballot it was apparent
that when the insurgents did not cast
their votes against Mr. Gallinger they
were SO paired as to render effective
the votes Of absentees.
Senator Borah announced his desire
to vote for Gallinger, but stated that
owing to a pair with Senator Works.
who was unfriendly to Senator Gal
linger, he could not do so Later he
stated that this pair had not been ar
ranged to injure the New Hampshire
senator. Mr.. Dixon was paired with
Mr.. Cummins and Mr.. Kenyon with
Mr.. Bourne.
The first ballot totaled 73 votes. of
which Mr.. Bacon, the Democratic can.
didate, received 35; Mr.. Gallinger, the
Republican candidate, 32, and Mr..
Clapp, 4, while Mr.. Bacon voted for
Mr.. Tillman and Mr.. Clapp for Mr..
Bristow
Messrs. Bristow, La Toilette, Gron-
ma and Poindexter voted for Clapp.
Messrs. Cummins, Bourne, Works and
Crawford, insurgents, were all absent,
but paired for Senator Clapp, except
Mr.. Crawford, who was i'll. All the
Democratic votes were cast for Mr..
Bacon. Necessary to a choice, 81.
The only change in the second ballot
was that Senator Gallinger, who had
refrained from voting on the previous
roll call, voted for Mr.. Lodge, In

GETTING A HIGH STANDARD
Child's Idea Of Goodness Set Forth
in Perfect Faith, Without
IrreVerence.

All things are relative, and to the
child, gazing at life and its wonders
with eyes as yet undimmed by So
phistication or sorrow, nothing is i'm
possible, nothing unspeakable, moth
ing too sacred to be discussed or too
dinicult to be attempted. Not irreV.
erence nor impertinence, but inno-
cence prompts such speeches as that
recorded of the child of a popular
journalist by his devoted paternal
grandmother.
Grandma" said the little boy, de-
lightedly addressing her, do you
know what's going to happen? Papa
says that If we're real, real good, he'll
take us to the circus!"
That's NICE" smiled the young
hearted adult between whom and the
eager youngling no hint Of age sepa-
ration mars perfect comradeship.
How good do we have to be?"
The embryo man, after a moment of
silent consideration: "Oh, as good as
God, l guess!"

Primary Bill Likely to Pass.

Preliminary debate in the house the
other day indicated the probable pass
age of the White bill, requiring can
didates for all state offices to be NOM
mated by direct primaries. 1t was re-
ferred to its author, Representative
White of sandusky. to whip into bet
ter shape.
The bill was amended to complete
the list of primary nominations by
including the state food commission
er, the state school commissioner and
the clerk of the supreme court. The
number Of signers to petitions was
reduced from 2 per cent to one-half
of 1 per cent.
There also were reported the Nc
Donald marriage bill, the Yount
school book price bill and the Gray
bill, fixing at two years the terms of
members of the state board of agri-
culture.

Important Measures Passed.

The Huffman canal bill provides an
expenditure of $4,000 by the state
engineer for surveying the eastern
and western canals, with the ultimate
object in view of building a deep wa
terway from Cleveland to Marietta
and from Toledo to Cincinnati. The
Johnson bin would tax as credits,
bank deposits, instead of treating
bank deposits as cash, as such de-
posits are now considered for pur-
poses of taxation. The Hudson bill
seeks to provide a means Of registra-
ton for cheap lodging houses and is
aimed as cure for registration evils
resulting from such conditions. 4..,.

To Prevent Will Contests.

If the house acts favorably on Sen
ator Dore's bill, passed by the senate,
there will be no contested wills in
Ohio. The measure provides for proof
of testaments in the lifetime of the
testator. This is to be done by giving
notice to heirs-at-law that the testator
has filed his will in probate court. Nc
one is to see what is in it, but if any.
body thinks that the maker of the
will is under undue influence or isn't
competent to write a will, he must
object within time fixed. Dore fig
ures that no one will make a protest
when it's possible he is getting the
bulk of the property. The question is
not to be raised after the death Of
the testator.

Report Of Measures Introduced

Senate Passes Winters UtIlity Bill.

J Senate Passes Winters Utility Bill.
BY a vote of % to 8 the Win
ters utility bill passed the senate.
Turning down seven amendments pre-
sented by Stockwell Of Cleveland, the
senate put through the bill in the
exact form in which public service
corporation lobbyists had urged. Not
only are the sections relating to tele-
phone mergers worse than those con-
tanned in the Elson bill Of i'll fame,
defeated last session, but according to
both Representatives Langdon and
Stockwell, the sections relating to
stock and bond control, valuation Of
property and regulation of rates are
so constructed as to include every
thing the lobby wanted. The bill will
go back to the house where, leaders
on both sides say, the amendments
will be rejected.

Ing to illegitimate children and re-

OUTLOOK IMPROVED
Business Activity Still at a Minimum
But Prospects Are Much More
Hopeful.

New York;. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade said:
Warmer weather has stimulated in
creased activity in retail trade in
most of the large centers, but the
business situation as a whole is 9Th
erwise unsatisfactory, so far as the
immediate volume of transaction is
concerned, although the outlook is
favorable. Consumption is below pro-
ducing capacity, and curtailment is
the order of industry, particularly in,
the iron and steel trade, in which
there has been a further blowing out
of furnaces and a reduction in unfill-
ed orders.
Steel of for First Time.
Unified tonnage of the United
States Steel Corporation shows a fall
ing off for the first time this year.
Concessions are noted in sales of
southern iron for prompt delivery, all
though prices on distant shipments
are generally maintained. Somewhat
more encouraging prospects appear
in the rail division, two railroads be-
ing in the market for a considerable
tonnage, while other negotiations are
pending.
Activity in Cotton Goods.
AaAf H.,
.on goods markets by large purchases
made for the account of printers and
conVerters, the total being in excess
Of 100000 pieces. Jobbers are care
full purchasers of domestics. Mer-
chants regard trade conditions as i'm
proving slowly.
Weather a Factor.
Adverse weather has held back re-
tail trade, but with every sign of
higher temperature demand increases
considerably. Yarns are firmer, more
as consequence of high cotton than
increased demand. The export trade
in cottons is well above that of year
ago. About so per cent of the loom
age available for worsted and wooden
dress goods is employed. The trend
in mems wear toward woolens is pro-
nounced, and novelty fabrics are be-
ing sought.
Shoes and Leather.
Trading in footwear does not show
the usual activity, although condi-
tions have improved and manufac-
turers are working on fairly satis-
factory volume of orders. Leather
is in slightly better demand, with
larger trading in the east. The do
mestic hide markets developed activ-
ity as an outcome of liberal buying.
The principal movement was in ma
tive steers and combing trading is
estimated as involving from 100000
to 100000 hides.

SALARY Not LARGE Enouoh.

Senator Yount stated that the brib-
cry scandal results chiefly from the
fact that the salaries of members of
the general assembly are not large
enough to attract men of sufficiently
large caliber. Yount suggests that
salaries be increased to at least $2,500
instead of $1,000 a year. He stated
explicitly that he is not candidate
for reelection.

The section is the one exempting en-
ployers of labor who have less than
four employees from the operation Of
the act. To secure a committee on
conference the senate refused to con.
cur in the amendments. The house
will ask for a committee also.
