A. B. Fall and A. A. Jones today
joined the "Skiddoo 23' column in
the joint balloting for United States
Senators in the House of Representa-,
tives, each receiving 90 votes and
thus dividing honors at the head of
! the column.
! The second ballot has brought no
solution to the Senatorial deadlock.
| The scattering votes beyond the six
| highest candidates, is still insufficient
to elect any one man by giving him
! the required 81 votes. There were
some changes in position that were
anticipated. The greatest gain was
made by A. B. Fall, as shown by the
two columns above, the first being
today's vote, and the second yester-
days vote. He gained six votes. W.
H. Andrews gained three votes. NJ.
A. Otero appeared for the first time
and received four votes. Judge A. w.
! Cooley, with two votes, and Charles
| A. Spiess with one vote, were the
other two new candidates. The great
| est loss was noted by W. ]. Mills, six
votes, part of whose strength went to
Fall and Andrews.

We're: Senators Evans and Bowman

Miguel Baca. 1t took exactly an hour
to record the ballot and figure out the

at the same time, each member of the

The reading of the minutes follow
