Especial correspondence.l


Washington, May 3.-That plans are
afoot to defer any test of strength on
the case of Senator Lorimer until next
session of congress has become known
about the senate.
Anti-Lorimer senators have got Wind
that such a movement is on and they
are perturbed over it. They are like
wise bent on forcing q vote If they
can do it.
AS the result of this situation. there
will doubtless be fine row in the
senate before many days have gone by
over the question Of whether to force
the Lorimer case to an issue or to al
low it to drift over to next session.
All along, since the trouble over
Lorimer began in the senate. the pro-
Lorimer forces have been careful
about timing any tests of strength.
The vote in the last congress, when
Lorimer got thru by narrow margin.
was not taken until the pro-Lorimer
senators were reasonably sure they
had mustered the votes
Same Policy Now.
The same policy is being followed
now. The case Of Lorimer is not strong
get a majority report out OF the spe-
cial committee for the reason that
Senator Jones OF Washington about
faced and supported Lorimer instead
of voting against him as he did in the
last congress. But even then. Lorimer
is in danger and especially has his
strength been sapped in the senate
since the overwhelming vote in Illinois
A. h
Roosevelt in his war on Lorimer and
the Lincoln league. even going to the
extent of knocking out Uncle Shelby
Cullom. Since then, pro- Lorimer en-
thusiasm has not been at fever heat
in the senate.
Committee Slow to Act.
Under the circumstances. the Lori
mer forces do not want to hurry the
case to vote. The special committee,
headed by Senator Dillingham;. with
five Pro- Lorimer senators on It to
three against LoriIner. is slow getting
its report ready for the senate. This
is so far true that Senators Kern. Ken
yon and Lea, who are against Lorimer,
are getting their minority report
against Lorimer ready and will soon
file it regardless of what the majority
does. The filing of the minority report,
it may be expected. on its threatened
filing. will hurry along the majority
report. A motion TO discharge the COM
lnittee is expected unless 1t hurries.
A powerful movement is on in con-
gress to end the session quickly. II II
materiaiizes. the session will wind up
about June TO- The pro-Lorimer forces
are in favor OF this. They are eager
to get the session ended and to hold
off a test on Lorimer until after the
elections next November are over.

the country. Outsiders have failed to
show up in any number or to have
sent in orders to their commission
representatives at this market In vol
ume anything like the business that
was doing fortnight ago.
Only a limited business In feeders
has been done here lately at prices as
high az. 1870 and 1t would take some
thing very fancy to land as high as
$685. at this time, most Of the fairly
good to very good 700 to S50-pound
feeders going at $620@6.60. the more
ordinary class of 900 to 700-pound
feeders and fair to good stockers 60
ing at $5.60@6.10, the trashy and light
err stock steers at 1886 down to $40.
Something fancy in the high bred
stocker line would sell at s6.25 or bet
ter but most of the steers ranging IN
weight from $50 down go below IS.
A very liberal stock of young cattle
of light and medium weight is avail
able, but the red-hot demand for little
beef stuff has skinned off most OF the
fair weight steers with flesh enough
for slaughter at this time. Notre Dame
University took a load of 9S2-pound
tseers from feeder dealers drove yes
