SENATE USES OLD
TACTICS TO STOP
DIRECT ELECTION
Vice President Ignores De-
sire of Progressives in Re-
ferring Resolution.

W hen the Senate, early this afternoon
received from the House the joint reso-
luton providing for popular election OF
Senators, Vice President Sherman very
promptly said that it would be sent to
the Committee On Privileges and Elec-
tons. Thereupon an interesting contest
developed.
For many years resolutions to this
effect have been sent to Privileges and
Elections. and just as often they have
been given chloroform, for it has been
part of the business of the Senate man
agement to keep this committee safely
opposed to aEv such foolishness.
In the last Congress Senator Borah Of
Idaho put one over on the elder
statesmen by introducing a popular cleo
ton resolution, and asking that 1t be
sent to the Committee on judiciary. 1t
80 happened that at the moment the
the resolution was actually sent to thu
Committee on Judiciary before any one
saw the mistake that had been made.
The next thing Borah did was to or
ganize majority of theJudiciary in
favor Of the resolution, and get 1t re-
ported out.
The old guard did not propose to be
caught mapping again that way, how
ever, and when the resolution reached
the Senate today the Vice President
unhesitatingly sent 1t to Privileges and
Elections. Senator Culberson few min
utes later protested against this, and in
sisted that it ought to go to the Judici-
airy Committee as 1t did last session.
Not An Eye Blinked.
Keeping their faces perfectly straight
and never blinking an eye, Senators who
are opposed to popular election pointed
out in grave terms how serious mis-
take It would be to send such a resolu-
ton to any other committee than the
particularly appropriate one o. Privi-
leges and Elections. Senator Clara,
chairman of the Committee on Judiciary,
instead of insisting that the resolution
come to his committee, expressed the
opinion that precedent favored the refer
ence to Privileges and Elections. and he
was generous enough to be willing that
it should go there. Senator Clark is
opposed to direct election, an knew
that If the resolution came to his COM
mittee 1t would be reported out.
No Attention to Progressives.
The progressive Republicans and the
Democrats insisted that the resolution
go to the judiciary; the regular Repub-
licans urged that the resolution go to
the Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tiOns.
Senator Culberson finally moved to
change the reference and send the reso-
luton to the Judiciary. The Vice Presi-
dent refused 20 allow a vote on this. and
it was not in order until after o'clock.
The matter, accordingly, went over,
with everybody expecting that when 1t
came up again it would be the first test
of strength between the Republican
regulars on one side and the Democrats
and progressive Republicans on the
other - ~ - ~

DRESEN. April f1.-Capt. Won Oidt-
man, pilot of the balloon Nordhausen,
is expected to die from fracture Of the

of the balloon exploded yesterday and
hurled him and three other men through

so that Korn might be rescued the
operators of the balloon let It fall
against the gasometer, where the gas
was ignited.

He Had to "Cough Up
In More Ways Than One

PITTSFIELD, Mass, April 16.-
Charles Connors, of Dalton, had "a
cough up" S25 before he could get
half a dollar out of his throat. Con-
nors, who left the hospital today, re-
Gently won a wager by catching in his
mouth half dollars thrown from a dis
lance of ten feet.
The last one slipped down his throat
and stuck. The doctors worked on him
a week before they could relieve him
and charged him fifty half dollars for
their labor.

to town. People were here from
almost every section Of the South

voted a success by those who had
the affair In hand and by those

unpleasant occurrence on the
grounds during the day, and there
was plenty Of dinner for everybody,
which Is the real test that desig-
mates a picnic from a grating
scheme.
During the day speeches were
made by members of the Farmers
Union and Others. which were list
ened to with about the usual atten-
ton the picnic speaker Gets.
Rain began to fall about three
o'clock In the afternoon and drove
the crowd from the grounds, thereby
