Albany, Jan. The United States
| 10 cfrta tn a
ever. The legislature tried to choose
the Democrat who will succeed Sen
ator Chauncey M. Depew, but no can
didate received the majority of votes
necessary to election. Efforts to in
crease the following of William F.
Sheehan, the leading candi late, or to
unite the opposition on any one other
candidate thus far have proved fruit
less.
Mr.. Sheehan, with 80 votes on the
first joint ballot and within nine votes
of election, may be no nearer Wash
ington than Martin W. Littleton or D.
Cady Herrick, who received but two
votes. In fact there is a growing i'm
preston that If Sheehan cannot win
the successful candidate is as likely
as not to be some one whose name has
not yet been proposed.
The one ballot taken gave Mr. Shee
han 80 votes. Edward M. Shepard, 13
Alton B. Parker, q; James w. Gerard
3; Martin w. Littleton, 2, and D. Cady
Herrick, 2.
All these were Democratic votes
The Republicans voted solidly for theil
caucus choice, Senator Depew. Com
pared with the total vote Of Tuesday
when the senate and assembly voted
separately, the changes were insignia
cant. Mr. Sheehan lost one vote, Mr.
Shepard one, and Judge Parker ant
Justice Gerard one each.
