BATTLE IS RENEWED IN

RIGHT TO HOLD SEAT
Polls Which Are Accepted as
Accurate, Doom "Blond
Boss" to Defeat
FIFTY ARE AGAINST HIM
Illinois Man is Accused of Hav-
ing Acquired Place BY
Corrupt Methods
FIFTY ARE AGAINST HIM

WASHINGTON, July 6.-When
routine business had been disposed of
In the senate. today, William Lorimer,
OF illinois, again faced battle over
his right to a seat as senator. On
March /. 1911, the senate voted 46 to
40 10 retain him as a member. Defeat
today would mean that in the judg-
ment of a majority Of senator's, the
blond boss" acquired his seat in the
senate by corrupt methods and prae-
tees" With that condemnation, in
the event he loses, he will be driven
back to private life in Chicago.
Such a case, involving the standing
of a member, is a question of the
highest privilege in the senate. On
June u, the upper house, by unani-
nous consent, decided to take up the
reports OF the Lorimer investigating
COMMITTEES on legislative day. July 6.

days. but until the final vote that will
decide the fate of Lorimer Is taken,
no other question can be taken up by
the senate
Great changes have taken place In
the membership of the senate since
Lorimer won his fight in 1911. Many
OF the standpatters, from whom his
strength was mainly recruited, have
been retired to private life. They
have been succeeded by younger
class OF senators, TO whom historic
senatorial courtesy" Is not a fetish.
Polls taken and generally accepted
as being accurate, hold no hope for
I nViyn af viz
that Vice-President Sherman rjade a
months ago to advise Lorimer to re-
sign. The arguments In favor of his
retirement were that he could avert
what appeared to be certain defeat
and, moreover, save his senatorial
friends embarrassment by not requir-
ing them TO line up for him again.
Many of the senators who voted for
Lorimer in 1911 were retired mainly
because of that vote.
Polls recently taken show not less
than so senators against the blond
boss" and not more than 40 in his
favor. A majority in the senate is as,
There is no possible gauge by
which the time OF the final vote may
be even Appropriated. A number Of
senators said today that 1t might
come next week, but the general i'm
preston was that It would be much
later.
Lorimer was elected senator on
May 26, 1909, following long dead
lock in the Illinois legislature. A coali-
ton OF Republican and Democratic
forces accomplished his election. A
year later several members Of that
legislature signed confessions alleging
that they had been paid for their
votes. Later charges revealed q

to which big corporations were invited
to contribute.
In all the various investigations to
date, Lorimerites have vigorously
denied any corrupt practices in the
senatorial election.

An Official OF the company explain
