spite OF indefinite rumors that some
thing would happen within the next
two or three hours, the house this
morning resumed the balloting on the
speakership with little show Of inter-
est. There was little change over the
ballots of yesterday evening and what
change there was can be ascribed to
the presence Of members who were

Rapp could be elected today All OF
the strength the new administration
could throw to him failed to give him
as many votes as he received on the
fifty-fifth and fifty-sixth ballots last
4 week, when he was given sixty-nine.
The three or four votes on the demo
cratic side controlled by Secretary OF
State-elect Woods were refused to

ranks would the breaking Of the dead
lock be possible at this time.

a break is impending.
