admittedly had gone to Shurtleffs
rooms, which were occupied by Mr..
LorImer, to arrange about federal
patronage. and rapidly passed 10 the
connection of Lee O'Neill Browne with
the case. This man, declared to be
Mr.. Lorimer's chief agent. "a fact
which rests on the testimony of Browne
himself, Is not the subject of discus
sion"
The senator then undertook to show
that Browne had been instrumental
in procuring the 80 democratic votes
cast for Lorimer. Picturing Browne's
leadership over and control of a cer-
tain large number of members of the
Illinois legislature, and the relation
ship of Browne to Lorimer, which was
described as that of campaign man
ager, Senator Root wanted to know
how this control was secured and
maintained.
The use by Browne of the term

ocrats to vote in the Legislature for
Lorimer, was made most of by Mr.
Root. He said the testimony showed
that Mr., Browne had recourse to this

Washington, Feb. 3.--The entire sem
ate today sat through long speech
by Senator Root and heard him de-
clare that Senator William Lorimer
should be excluded from his seat on
account OF bribery In his election by
the Illinois legislature, regardless of
methods OF subtraction resorted to
with reference to the seven alleged
tainted votes. He said 1t was i'm
material whether the taine1 votes We're
subtracted from the general vote on
joint ballot or only from the Lorimer
vote.
Senator Bailey created sensation
by asserting that II Lorimer We're shut
out by any such logic, then Mr.. Cui-
lom, the Illinois senator, also should
DE excluded, and he added impres sive-
ly:
"And there Is no one here who would
acquit Mr.. Cullom of having knoWl-
edge of any wrongdoing In connection
with his election"

meritorious the same may be. of any
individual democrat, and with that end
In view this committee recommends
that each democratic member of the
assembly lay aside his personal choice
in order to bring about the desired re-
suit, and In event a conference should
prove Intellectual, then we recommend
that the members of the legislative
assembly should, if possible, deter
mine senatorial choice by caucus
proceedings"
The general impression here tonight
Is that the committee marched to the
top of the hill and down again. The
senatorial situation has not been inn
proved. Nobody is even curious to
know what the vote will be tomorrow.
For days the democrats have been
trying to hold a caucus or a confer
ence or any old thing, but they have
not succeeded. Ten men will not sign.
