viii Lose Seat This Year.

st. Paul, April 14.--H II. Kohlsaat,
proprietor of The Chicago Record
Herald, whose testimony in the Lori
mer investigation in Springfield, H.,
preceded the revelations Of Clarence
S. Funk, says that he believes that
Lorimers days in the Senate are num-
bered.
81 have not the slightest dought,"
said Mr. Kohlsaat, that the inyesti-
CATION will be reopened in Washington
and that the verdict this time will
be against him. The present Senate
never would have seated him in the
first place and the personnel as it
stood at the time of the first inquiry
would not have indicated him IL the
facts which have now come to light
had been obtainable then.
81 do not look for any jail sentences.
1t would probably be found impossible
to show misdoing to that extent"

1t now seems probable that nothing
will interfere to prevent the engage
ment of Tommy Leonard as playing
manager Of the Keene baseball team
the coming season. The directors of
the association have been in correspon
dence with Mr.. Leonard who at pres
ent is at college at Chattanooga, Tenn.
and a contract in which he signified his
willingness to make, has been forward
ed to him. Unless something arises
to interfere, Keene is assured of a
hustling field captain and one who is
playing the game every minute of the
time. The directors are daily receiv-
ing applications from ball players all
over New England who desire to put
their summer in at Keene. Wood
combe of Fitchburg who caught here
at one game last season, is one of the
many who would like to wear a Keene
uniform. There seems to be no dearth
of material and the problem now be-
fore the directors is to select such
men as will make the Keene team a
pennant winner-Cheshire Republi-
