LORIMER FIGHT WILL
Be ON IN FULL BLAST
Gamble, Among Others, Is Ex-
pected to Tell Why He Fav-
ored Seating Boodler.

Washington, Jan. 16.-Debate in the
Lorimcr case Is expected to break out
in full blast next week. Members of
the privileges and elections committee
who signed the majority report favor
ing Lorimer will defend their course.
Senator Gamble is getting ready to de-
fend his position.
Senator Burrows will lead off Mon
day. The Lorimer leaders here are ex-
erting every possible influence to save
Lorimer from being ousted. 1t is de-
clared today they cannot muster much
over a third of the n a
Senator Crawford is getting nu-
merous letters of approval for his
course in assailing Lorimer's right to
his seat.
At a dinner the other night a half
dozen or more of the republican pro-
| gressives went over the list and elm
mated the doubtful class and putting
each senator either for or against Lor-
inner, as the majority of those present
judged the tendency Of the individuals,
made their tentative lineup 46 to As,
in favor of a resolution to vacate the
seat in question. This may BIZ regarded
as very conservative figuring. It GER
tainly is much more SO than that done
by some of Mr.. Lorimer's lieutenants
for publicity purposes wherein the
Lorimer case is given a certain
strength in excess of SO.

In explanation OF her crime, the police
say, Mrs. Melber says she has been O

she has had to struggle to care for her
self and her child, n that this battle
for existence drove her to take the
boys life.

arrest by keeping watch in the station
over a trunk that had been checked
from Schenectady, and believed to be-
the property Of Mrs. Melber. When the
woman appeared to get it soon after s.
O'Clock she was arrested.

considered q test OF the sentiment of
argely in favor OF the proposition.
The situation vas such as to rouse
The Immediate interest OF the senators.
Senator Sutherland was prompt In obs
aiming the attention Of the chair. He
wanted to amend the resolution so as

ttate legislatures supervision OF ei>c-
lions and making other changes.
Senator Rayner, q stanch advocate
&c he committee, sGsssestcd that SIS the
amendment went to the heart of the
question there should be time for con-
alteration. Senator Rayrer did not
press his point. but his plea was taken
Up by Senator Hale, OF Maine. whose
position on the merits of the measure
8 Numerically opposite. He was sure
that the resolution could not be acted
Upon without protracted debate. He
Urged deliberate. movement and precip-
lately moved an adjournment OF the
Senate. The first vote was WV yoce.
THE yeas appear to have it," an
iounced the chair.
"Never!" exclaimed a half dozen

nays
Accordingly a roll call was ordered,

OF the 43 negative votes. 20 were cast
~ republicans.
Encouraged by this. Senator Borah

Unanimous Consent Refused.
For probably 10 minutes the members
4 h Senate discussed the details or
ne proposition. Even Senator Hale
appeared to fall in with the request.
Senator Borah's colleague, Senator
Hepburn, had not said a word up to
this time, but when the chair put the
request for unanimous consent he said
"No" and spoiled the entire plan.
Senator Borah seemed displeased and
proceeded to discuss the situation, Say
Ing the Sutherland amendment had
been offered in committee n was per-
fectly understood, as was h general

Senator Carter did not agree. He
wanted time for consideration and for
the digestion of the Sutherland and
other amendments. which by this time
mad been presented by Senators De-
pew and Nelson.
Senator Cullom requested an exec
utive session. Such requests by the
venerable Illinois senator seldom fall
On u~nheeding ears. This was no excep-
ton.
Senator Borah stated That he would
not permit much other business until a
lay is fixed for a vote on the resolu-
ton.
After a brief session the Senate ad-
iourned until Monday.
