LORrMCR LEFT NO VACANCY.
Gov. Deneen May Not Appoint 9
senator in His Place.

SrRrNorIElp. Ill. July 17.-Attorney-
General Stead in an opinion submitted
to Gov. Dcneen this evening holds there
is no vacancy in the Office Of United States
Senator in Illinois due to the action OF
the United States Senate in ousting Will
lam Lorimer. He therefore rules that
the Governor has no power to appoint a
Senator.
The Attorney General Gays the case
Of Lorimer is analogous to the cases
of Lee Mantle of Montana and Matthew
=. Quay of Pennsylvania, both OF which
involved the question Of the power OF the
State Executive to appoint a Senator
where the Legislature OF the State had
failed to elect.
The Interpretation put on the Lea reso-
luton by Attorney General stead 10 that
the Legislature OF Illinois Of 1909 failed
to elect United States Senator.
