TEaaESSEE Is UNABLE
&c a6REE ON SENATOR

NASHVILLE. Tenn. Jan. 12-As far
as surface appearances go there has been
little change IN the senatorial situa-
ton in this state since the vote in joint
convention was taken yesterday at noon.
Those who have closely watched the
night for United States senator declare
that Ex-Governor McMnlaa has been
practically eliminated from the race:
that his vote yesterday-57-brought al
most his entire strength. The friends
OF Mr.. F1tzhugh. the Independent DEM
ucratic candidate. are more sapguine to-
day Of his final success II is predicted
that when the showdown comes he win
get the solid Republican support
Should the regular Democrats become
convinced there Is no hope for McMil-
Ian. il Is understood their strength win
be thrown 70 Hon Luke E Wright. OF
Memphis.
Should the deadlock continue. it is pos
sible that Hon. Nat Baxter. Jr.. speaker
Of the senate. and one OF the wealthiest
men in the state. may be centered upon
as a dark horse
