Investigation Of Title

Action May Be Really Effort of LaFoI'
Iette to Clear Up the Situation
Before Becoming White
House Candidate.

Washington, d. C.. July 1S.-Sena-
tor Stephenson may urge the senate to
make an early investigation of his
election.
Whether he viii do this is not yet
determined. 1t is known that he is
considering such course, and before
the session ends the senate may find
the junior Badger senator on his feet
demanding that the senate get busy in
this respect, report To the senate and
let the country know what was done
by him in furtherance of his candi-
dacy.
Some of Stephensons friends think
he would be a gamer through asking
for an investigation. They regard the
likelihood that the committee on privi-
leges and elections will make a report
at this session as remote. I'm this sit
uation many think the senator should
demand of the senate an early Vindi-
cation. and to that end should HIM

In the senate on Monday for the first
lime since the filing OF the request for
an investigation into the manner OF
his election. He consulted a number
of his senatorial friends relative to
the prospects of an inquiry
The theory has been advanced to
Stephenson that really the investiga
tor la Toilette TO clear up Wiscon-
ton is an effort on the part of Sena-
his candidacy for the presidency.
When the investigation of senator
Stephenson's election was first discuss
ed the threat was made that Stephen
son would retaliate by making public
some of his memoirs ahead of time
This raised the question as TO what
the senator had in mind. There has
also been some curiosity to know just
what his connection was with the La
Toilette campaign before they became
political enemies
1t has been suggested that Senator
La Toilette seeks to have this cleared
up before he becomes a white house
candidate.
