ment In the senate.
Senator Martin, chairman of the
democratic caucus, who framed the
committee had announced his inten-
ton of giving the new and progress
I've senators fair representation. The
steering committees first function
will be to take up the personnel Of
committees.
Several Of the important committees
probably will be enlarged to meet
the demands of the democrats for
greater representation. The demand
for places by republican senators is
SO strong that 1t does not seem prac-
tlcable to reduce the republican rep
resentation and the democrats insist
on more liberal recognition.
Senator Gallinger, chairman Of the
republican committee on committees.
conferred on this subject with Sena-
tor Martin and they agreed to take up
the matter with their fellow senators.
The minority representatives took
the position that there should be a
at least four democrats to every five
republicans on the committee, and Mr..
Gallinger. while disposed to concede
the fairness of this contention in the
main, held out for more than one ma
iority on the larger committees.

DEADLOCK UNBR0KEN
IN IOWA LEGISLATURE

Des Molnes, Ia, April 1.-THE six
ty-fifth joint ballot this afternoon, the
third taken during the day, failed to
put even perceptible dent in the SEN
satlonal deadlock which has existed
in the Iowa legislature for many long
weeks.
Adherents of Judge w S. Kenyon
and Supreme Court Judge Deemer,
the leading republican candidates, are
holding conferences tonight ana both
sides seemed determined to hold their
ground.
The democrats who have been cast
ing their fifty or more votes almost
solidly for Claude r. Porter, appear to
be equally determined not to give aid
to either faction of the republican
party.

he wore gloves. Will Rogers also
made conflicting statements as to
where he found the child, which dis
crepancies varied more than mile in
distance. The officers had been work
ing on the assumption for some time
that Will Rogers was guilty, but II
remained for Fornoff by his clever
arrival AT his conclusion that Virgins
was connected with the affair to
bring him face to face with evidence
that resulted in his confession of the
crime.
Tonights disclosures have again
aroused the city to such degree of
excitement that authorities fear may
result in demonstration tonight.
All the accused men are in the coun-
ty Jail which is guarded by large
force Of deputies. Plans have been
formulated for taking the prisoners
to the penitentiary at Santa Fe to-
morrow for safekeeping.
The arrest of Virgins came late to-
day. His confession Is said to have
followed at once.
Waldo Rogers, the 2-year-old son
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Rogers and the
grandson Of II. r. Waldo, general
counsel for the Santa Fe in New
Mexico, was. kidnapped from the FAM
ily residence on the night of March
goth
Taking advantage of the absence
from the city of the boys father, two
masked men went to the Rogers
home shortly before midnight and at
the point of revolver compelled
Mrs. Rogers to dress the child for
night ride and deliver him to them
They repeatedly assured her that the
child would not he harmed and that
he would be returned safely provided
the police were not notified and
$4,000 in small bills was paid to
their Representatives. They named
lonely spot eleven miles north of
Las Vegas as the place where the
money was to be delivered by Mrs.
Rogers representative who was to
come to the rendezvous alone the
following day.
Taking only her bankers and her
brother-ln-law, viii Rogers, into her
confidence, Mrs. Rogers secured the
$4,000 the following morning and
delivered IL to Win Rogers to carry
to the place of meeting.
VIII Rogers returned Thursday
night with the child. who was well
and unharmed. He declared TO Mrs.
Rogers and later to the authorities
that he had been met at the appoint
ed place by a man. who after reeeiv-
ing and counting the money, direct
ing him to a well-known canyon fif-
teen miles south of the place of meet
ing, where he had found the little boy
lying in an arroyo wrapped in n
blanket.
The authorities were not informed
until the child had been returned to
his mother, when search for the
kidnapers that involved the territorial
mounted police. private detectives
and posses composed of Las Vegas
citizens and ranchers for miles around
was begun.
A reward of $4,000 was offered
for the capture and conviction of the
kidnapers and the entire country was
ablaze with indignation. Threats of
lynching were freely made. Blood
hounds were taken to the supposed
place of meeting north of Las Vegas,
but We're unable to find the trail of
the supposed fugitives.
