er today also makes this change for
the better appear highly probable
It ia thought unlikely that there
will be further trouble with either
the electricity or water supply.
When the power went off last night
many Institutions were forced to shut
down. The World plant depends sole
ly on electricity for power to run its
linotypes, presses, etc, as well as its
lights, and the entire force was laid
off for two hours during the most
important period Of the evening for
morning newspaper. Similar CON
ditions prevailed in many other es-
adjustments that run at night. All
the show houses closed for the night
Contrary to expectations there were
no hold-ups during the time the city
was in darkness The police have not
made an arrest for "a hours and no
robberies of any kind had been re-
ported at 10 o'clock last nieht.
Street car service was badly inn
paired, being completely suspended
Of course while the power plant was
not running.
Horses Are Injured.
The streets were very slippery and

eXtinguished the blaze with chem!-

On the run to First and Guthrie
the east end fire department was
forced to abandon their apparatus at
Second and Cincinnati, the horses
falling three times in a block. The
horse on the Tulsa fire department
was rough shod yesterday afternoon.

Wire S ervice Not Hurt.
Fortunately telephone and tele-
graph wires withstood the blizzard
and unless another sleet storm breaks
down the wires no trouble will be
experienced in the service.
The water went down at the cleo
trio light plant at 12 o'clock Monday
night. The distress signal brought
the llnemen to the plant and in a
short time the entire day and night
crews were working heroically to re-
lieve the situation.
Expenses did not figure in the stu
alton at all. AS rapidly as possible
one thousand cakes Of ice were taken
from the storage room and melted to
furnish water to replenish the sup
ply, At daylight the necessary ma
terial was purchased and temporary
mains laid to the wells in the vicinity.

payments returned to the usual chan
nels.

APPOINTMENT OF Ion FRAME Is
NOT CONCURRED IN BY THE
LOWER HOUSE.
IN session FOR LONG Time
Used More Than Allotted Period for
Debate; Two Officials VIII
Be Up Later.
(BY j. A. M'KEEVER.)
(Staff Correspondent.)

OKLAHOMA CITY, Jan. 7.-(Spe-
cial )-After being In continuous ses-
sion for thirty-one hours the special
session of the state senate at O'Clock
this afternoon by vote OF 21 to 19
refused to confirm the appointment
by Governor Cruce Of Lon NJ. Frame,
OF Ardmore, to be chairman Of the
state board Of affairs. The supporters
Of Frame could only muster 21 votes
on the final vote which was just two
short of the majority OF 23 necessary
to confirm his appointment.
Extended Time.
Under the constitutional provision,
the appointment OF Mr.. Frame ex-
pired automatically II the extra ses-
sion OF the senate adjourned sine die
without taking action upon the nom
ination. The regular session Of the
fourth legislature was by law supposed
to start at IL noon today, but as that
time approached II was seen by the
senate that the debate and minority
and majority reports of the commit
tee appointed before Christmas to in
vestigate Mr.. Frame and other ap-
pointees could not be concluded in
time to take vote before noon. Then
the senate decided to ignore the time
and extend the special session until
such time as the matter could be dis
posed OF.
Doom and Riley Later.
After taking the vote on Mr.. Frame
at o'clock this afternoon the extra
ordinary session was adjourned sina
die, II being decided to ask the gov
ernor to reappoint State Game War
den Doolin and Ben r. Riley secre-
tary OF the state election board in
order that the senate might have OPP
portunity to pass upon them. Their
appointments expired automatically
with the adjournment of the extra
session.
Immediately after adIournlng, the
| senate convened in regular session an1
perfected organization for the fourth
state legislature with the same Officers
and committees that served during
tho special session.
Hard Fight Promised.
A recess was taken until 8 o'clock
tonight when the senate heard thc
committee reports on Mr.. Doolin and
Mr. Riley. No vote will be taken on
these two men tonight as the governo'
will first have to re-submit their
names and there will undoubtedly be
much debate with the promise Of as
hard a fight as there was on Mr..
Frame.
Nearly every senator had something
to say before the vote was taken and
the debate lasted almost continuous
ly from ten O'Clock Monday morning
until o'clock Tuesday night. with
only short recess early this morning
and recesses for meals During the
progress of tho debate It developed
that the investigation of the board of
affairs would lead to an effort during
this session to abolish the board en-
tirely. Two senator's, Thompson and
Barrett, declared in their speeches
that they had bills prepared that
would repeal the act under which the
board OF affairs was established.
This will meet with sturdy opposl-
tion, however, as a statement prepar-
ed by Secretary f. b. Howard shows
where the board has saved the state
100000 during the past year in pur-
chasing supplies.
