Democrats Have But One Major ity on Sugar SoheduIe--Ask
 Appointment Successor.

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 9.-- The death of Senator Johnson, of Alabama, last night, has caused much apprehension among the Democrats, as the spit over the sugar schedule leaves the Dem- ocratic party with but one ma .jority. The members of the ma jority insist that Gov. Smith inn mediately appoint a successor to Senator Johnson, but under the new direct primary law no pro- yison is made for filling vacan- cies and an election must be held, which will require several weeks and possibly longer.
 The nearness of the vote on the sugar item; the fear that one senator might be ill or that. an accident may occur, and the still greater fear that one Democrat ic senator nov in favor of sugar may change his opinion ad block the, passage of the schedule, has caused the leaders to insist on an immediate appointment.
