The statement attributed to the rebel leaders at Torreon that they were awaiting news of the political eff feet of their victory on Washington also Is taken as a sign of general ex- peetancy that the United States gov ernment will recognize their claims Conditions precedent to political rec oenition in such cases always have been regarded as involving the establish ment of a regular government at some capital and the possession of one or more seaports through which the new government can communicate with the outside world. Recent reports assert that Tampico is about to surrender to the eonstitutionalsts without further fighting. In that case 1t will remain only for General Carranza to locate a capital and appoint a cabinet and other administrative officers to claim rec ognition.
 The United States, however, Is likely to go slow in admitting this claim. AL ready the constitutionalists, through the lifting of the embargo on arms and

22 After Nomination

Montgomery, April 4.-tSpecial.) )-TWen-
 ty-two prominent men Of Alabama are
 seeking nomination as representatives Tn
 the Sixty-fourth Congress of the United
 States. Two of these candidates are un-
 opposed--Dr. John W. Abercrombie of
 Tuscaloosa, present congressman from
 the state-at-large and J. Thomas Hei1ln
 of Lafayette, present member or con
 gress from the Fifth district.
 The races for Congress in the various
 districts of the state have been hotly con
 tested, the least fight probably havine
 been made in the Second district. where
 Congressman Hugh Dent of Montgomery
 is opposed by Woodford Mabry of Mont gomery. Mr. Dent is expected to carrJ his district by good majority
 In the First district the fight has been between Congressman George w. Taylor of Demopolis and Oscar l.. Gray of But Ter Reports from this district are con hicting, though MT. Gray is reported to
 stand an excellent chance of securing
 the nomination. However Mobile is strongly united in favor of MT. Gray, and the vote of that city, if concentrated upon that candidate, might seriously impair MT. Taylor's chances. It is believed, how ever that Taylor will win by small ma jority.
 Fight in Third and Sixth It is difficult to make any forecast or the contests Tn Ine | 1lfu dnu fSlAih tiS tricts In the Third district, Congress-
 man Henry D. Clayton of Eufaula is op- posed by Henry B. Steagal of ozark, and this race has been one of the most hotly contested in the entire state. Friends of both candidates are claiming victory, though it seems that MT. Clayton stands the better chance. Two months ago

 declare that each has an even chance.
 Congressman Fred l.. Blackmon of An

 over E. B. Deason of Clanton. and Con- gressman John l.. Burnett of Gadsden, representative from the Seventh district, | Is assured of victory over l.. B. Raipey

Henderson's Manager Confident

Mir Kennedy's statement is as fol- lows:
 Reports from throughout the state, reaching me by mail telegraph and long distance phone, almost hourly since my forecast of last Thursday, not only con firm the estimate l then announced, but warrant me in revising my forecast to the extent of stating that the race for the first place in the contest for governor Is now neck and neck between MT Hender- son and MT. Conner. with the advantage slight in favor of MT. Henderson.
 ''The undecided vote, always the balance of power, has consolidated on MT. Hen derson as being the candidate to win the fight. Changes have taken place from MT Conner to MT. Seed, and it is now an even chance that MT. Seed will carry the Sixth congressional district, thus leaving only the Fourth and the Seventh congress sonal districts to MT. Conner.
 As previously foreeasted, MT. Hender- son will carry by substantial pluralitles, the Second, Third, Fifth Eighth and Ninth congressional districts; Captain Kolb the First; the sixth district in doubt between Mr Seed and MT. Conner"

CAMPAIGN CLOSED
 IN DALLAS COUNTY

Selma. April i.-tSpecial. 1.-The sena- torial campaign closed here tonight with the most enthusiastic rally under the aus pices of the Dallas County Underwood club ever held in the state. The closing address of the cahnpaign was delivered at the Academy of Music by Capt. Samuel Blackwell of New Decatur and a bet ter worded or more brilliant and con vincing speech was never before made to a Dallas county audience. During to- day there came to Selma from all parts of Dallas and the surrounding counties a. large number of Underwood supporters and many of these attended the meeting at the opera house. When the address began tonight at & o'clock the opera house was crowded with voters who occupied every available seat of the parauette | and dress circle.

Crowd Enthusiastic

SfOWu
 Throughout the address by Captain
 Blackwell the crowd was most enthusi- astic and several times the speaker was
 interrupted by prolonged outburst of ap-
 plause following some statement of the
 great worth and ability of Oscar W. Un-
 derwood and which applause lasted tor
 more than a minute.
 Captain Blackwell was introduced to
 his hearers at the Academy of Music to-
 night by Gen. c. W. Hooper. president
 of the Dallas County Underwood club.
 General Hoopers introductory remarks
 were characteristic of the speaker who
 is plain spoken asl honest in his daily walk through life
 In opening his address Captain Black
 well started out on the great benefit
 which the American people were and
 would derive from Underwood tariff bill and went in a resume of tariff legisla- ton for years past the dry statistics of the first part of the speech proved some what disappointing to the large audi ence, but as the orator got deeper into the heart of his address the audience awoke to the fact that they were listen ing to one of the best campaign ad-
 dresses which has been delivered in Selma
 during recent years.
 Captain Blackwell told of Hobsons pro- posed prohibition amendment pending in Congress and expressed the opinion that 1t was not time for the enactment of such a measure and that an effort to pass it now would throw the cause oi prohibition backwards not less than 2d I years. The speaker also told plainly the record of Captain Hobson in Congress | and expressed the belief that if by sone unfortunate circumstances the people of Alabama should nominate him to the Senate that he would at once begin cam pagning for the presidency and would
 not have time to attend to his duties in I the Senate
 ] Captain Blackwell concluded his address | with a glowing tribute to the memory Of the late Senators Morgan and Pettus and expressed the belief that after the demo- cratic party had honored Woodrow Will
 son with the presidency; as long as the i principles of democracy should stand that the great democratic party from the At l lantic to the Pacific and from the lakes to the gulf would demand that Oscar w. 1 Underwood be 1his successor in the office which was the highest gift of the people.

 Interest in Senatorial Race
 The greatest interest in the state as well as in the nation at large, has been md is centered around the contest be- tween Oscar Underwood, democratic leader in the House, and Capt. Rich iaond P. Hobson, congressman from the Sixth district for the long term sena- torship. MT. Underwood has made but T short personal campaign because of his duties in Washington, leaving his interests entirely In the hands of his friends. Captain Hobson has been cam paigning for many months, making speeches in every nook and corner Of the state.
 The contest for the short term. the unexpire6 portion of the term of one late Senator Joseph F. Johnston. is be- tween Capt Frank s. White of Birming- ham and Ray Rushton of this city. Both have made a whirlwind canvass of the state in limited time.
