The SEAT VACANT
BeVerjdge Submits Minority Re-
port in LOrImer Case.

Washington, Jan. 10.-The fight to
prevent Senator Lorimer of Illinois re-
tanning his seat in the United States
senate was opened with a contest be-
tween Senators Beveridge of Indiana
and Owen of Oklahoma, both of whom
contested the right to fire the first
gun in the same cause.
Senator Beveridge, by virtue of be-
ing a member of the committee on
privileges and elections, which investi-
gated charges of bribery against Mr..
Lorimer, gained a tactical victory by
filing a minority report attacking the
petition of his colleagues on the com
mittee who voted to exonerate the
Illinois Senator.
The senate held that the resolution
under the rules would have to go over
for a day Mr.: Beverdge then sub
mitted his report, the conclusion of
which was:
THAT this election was invalid un'
der any possible view of the law. If
the senate so concludes it is our duty
so to declare Therefore ! submit the
following resolutions:

Legislation is likely to find earnest
advocates in both branches looking to
the election of United States senators

be thoroughly effective, requires an
amendment to the federal Constitu-
ton; but the legislature win be asked
to avoid the delay incident to this by
