DEATH FOLLOWS
A DENOMINATION

Sioux City, Iowa, June 4.-Congress-
man Z. H. Hubbard of Sioux City, rep
resenung the Eleventh Iowa district,
died suddenly this morning.
Hubbard was a candidate for renom-
ination in the republican primary yes
terday against George c. Scott of
Sioux City, and early returns indicated
he Sad won the nomination.
Heart failure was given as the cause
of death. Hubbard made hard cam
paign for denomination, and apparent
ly was in his usual health yesterday.
Early last evening he walked to the
home of John c. Kelly to receive the
election returns. At o'clock he fell
unconscious, at 10 he rallied, and at II
appeared much better, but short time
later again became unconscious, and
died at $50. His son Lyle was at his
bedside His wife, on her way home
from Washington. is expected tomor-
row. Arrange ments for the funeral
probably will not be made until Mrs.
Hubbard arrives.

Indiana Senator Defends
the Minority Report Ask
ing His Unseating.
LATE PLEA IS INVALID
"Res Adjudicata" Contention
Has Come Too Late, 1t Is
Claimed.

WASHINGTON, June 4.-With Sena-
tor Lorimer holding conferences with
friends and organizing his defense
and Senator Kern ready to open the
fight against him with a speech III
the senate this afternoon, attention
has focused upon the noted election
case which is likely to be the prlncl-
pal topic considered the next two
weeks, and it is possible it may pro-
long the session of congress.
RAISE "REs ADJUDICATA" ISSUE.
An important feature which prom
ises to precipitate the first fight and
the first test of strength is the con-
tention that Lorimers case in legal
parlance is res adjudicata," or, hav-
ing been once decided, cannot be re-
opened. The majority of the COM
mittee which made the second inves-
tigation holds Lorimer cannot be tried
again on practically the same charges
on which the senate acquitted him
March l. 1911.
COMPLEXION HAS CHANGED.
The minority holds this reasoning
does not apply to Lorimer's case at
| all. But the complexion of the SEN
| ate has been altered considerably
/ since Lorimer's vindication and this
leads to much speculation.
11TH HOUR PLEA.
! In his speech, Kern gave especial
attention to the plea that the case had
been settled by the senate's vindica.
ton last year. That plea, he said
was raised-only at the last moment.
He said he would not admit its va
lidity. 1t had come too late, and thai
plea itself was res adjudicata'
There was, he said, mo suggestion
by Lorimer or anyone else in his be
half that the senate had not ample
power TO direct a reinvestigation Of
the case. He tacitly acquiesced il
the senate's action.
PRESENT IN PERSON.
"He appeared in Person and BY
counsel before the committee il
months of investigation, cross-exam
lining witnesses called by the commit
tee and examining scores of witnesses
in his behalf in every possible phas,
of the case"
Lorimer occupied a seat near Kern
There were many visitors in the gal
lery. Kern praised the personal rep
utation Of Lorimer and said but TO
his convictions regarding the gravit,
of the charges he would not be foun;
in the disagreeable task of prose
CUtor.
