THE immediate objects of the

Santa Fe, n. NJ. Jan. 13.-In spite
of all efforts to effect a compromise
the race for speaker of. the house of
representatives today was locked
tight and the outlook was for fight
on the floor of the caucus The
caucus was called for 1880 o'clock to-
night, but when that hour arrived it
was announced that an adjournment
had been taken to 10 o'clock to-
morrow. This action was taken over
the protest of A, A. Sedillo. who ad-
mitted later. however, that the delay
would strengthen his candidacy. The
reason assigned for postponing the
caucus was the non-arrival of Valen-
tine D'Armond representative from
Valencia county
1t was believed tonight that Sedillos
chances had been greatly strength
ened by Governor Lariazolo coming
out In his favor. At least 1t was ru-
mored that the governor had decided
to take such a stand after conferring
WITH F.fsWfFdo ~ ,ltAsn er,,' ot's ~ lva8
publican leaders. 1t was known DUR
ing the day that the contest had been
carried to the governor. who is said
TO have declined at the time to lend
his aid in any way to the contest.
ScdilIo Leads Opponent.
There was never any doubt but that
Sedillo would so into the caucus with
healthy lead. The only question
was the scattering votes which might
flop to one of the leading candidates
after the first ballot. Friends of r.
c. Baea of Santa Fe, were claiming
that he had enough votes to sway the
majority, but this claim was not taken

Both LleWellyn and Sedillo seem to
be after the speakers chair only and
are determined to fight to the last for
this prize, and If they lose that to lose
everything. 1t was said that proffers
of floor leaderships had been refused
by both men. their friends insisting
that they stay in the race to the
finish.
Major Llewellyn declared that he
did not believe either of the candi-
dates would have enough strength tc
win the nomination In the first skirm-
ish. He believed that there were many
scattering voters who were waiting to
see which way the breeze was blow
ing and would so into the caucus un'
known quantities.
Sedillo never gave up. He claimed
to the last that he had enough votes
TO nominate him, and 1t was this con
fidence on the part of the Bernalillc
county man and his friends that pre-
vented the consummation of any pro
posed compromise.
