'DENEEN WILL NAME
SUCCESSOR TO LORIMFR

Springfield, H.. July 13.-Who will
succeed William Lormer in the SEN
ate is the engrossing topic throughout
the state. A successor may be APP
pointed by Governor Deneen or the
state Legislature may be called in -ex-
ira session. Although the governor
has refused to say what he intends
to do. ii is generally believed he will
make the appointment.
Should Governor Deneen appoint a
senator he would have only about a
month to serve. The senator thus ap-
pointed would not take his seat un-
til December and the legislature prob
ably would elect senator in January.
Among those mentioned are Roy O.
West. newly elected member of the
republican national committee, and
b. A. Eckert, a Chicago millionaire.
Friends of former Senator Albert j.
Hopkins, who received the advisory
vote at the primaries preceding the
Iorimer election, are urging that he
be appointed. Governor Deneen re-
fused to state whether he would even
consider Mr.. Hopkins.
