Indianapolis, Ind, May 3.-Harry
S. New slipped into the lead by a
neck today in the tabulation of votes
in his race with Albert J. Beveridge
for the republican nomination for
United States senator from Indiana.
After the pendulum of victory had
swung back and forth from the first
returns, the count of 1,244 precincts
out Of 1882 in the state, gave New
q lead of 1,172, who seeks reelection
on the record of the Harding ad-
ministration.
The vote:
New, 56,546; Beveridge, 55,374.
Throughout the night as the re-
turns were reported, the lead rested
with first New and then Beveridge.
The discontents with the Harding
administration were represented by
Beveridge, progressive.
New headquarters here claimed
the state by from 5000 to 10000.
The Beveridge camp said they had
won by 10000 to $4,000.
Incomplete returns showed New
leading in thirty of ninety-two coun-
ties in the state. Beveridge led in
thirty-six. Count of the vote pro.
ceeded slowly.
Hopes of New supporters were
placed on Marion county, in which
Indianapolis is located. The vote
here was exceptionally slow in tab
ulation. In thirty-two of 2O5 pre-
cincts in Marion county, the vote
was:
New, 1877; Beveridge, 3,SO2.
The vote in the Calumet regior
around Gary, as indicated in frs
reports, was surprise at the New
headquarters. Indications were tha
Beveridge would carry the distric
by 1000 votes. Political ,eadquart

Indianapolis. May 30.-Albert ].
Beveridge, progressive republican,
and biographer of John Marshall,
piled up steadily increasing lead
today in his battle to supplant Harry

ried seven of the thirteen congress

Near Panic Relgns.
BY LAWRENCE MARTIN,


(United Press Staff Correspondent
Washington, May S.-Partial re-
turns on the Indiana santorial pri-
mary created near panic in repub-
lican senatorial ranks today. SEN
ators were amazed and incredulous
over the news that returns from half
the state showed Beveridge more
than 5000 In the lead over Senator
Harry 8. New.
The fact that many Of the pre-
cincts yet to report are from sections
where Beveredge should be stronger
than New added to the gloom of
News friends.
Senator Jim Watson, News col
league, was surrounded by an eager
group the minute he appeared in the
senate. Watson had no later infor-
nation than that conveyed in United
Press dispatches. New, he said, con-
tinued confident that the total count
would show him victor for the noml-
nation.
Means Harding Rebuke.
If New loses, his defeat will be
interpreted as direct slap at the
Harding administration.
At Senator News office tele-
gram received shortly before noon
from the New headquarters in In
dianapolis gave the following fig
ures:
In 1903 precincts out Of 1874,
New 1921; Beveridge 72,4S3. News
office here said his denomination
by six to ten thousand was expected.
The figures given include sixty pre-
cincts out of 200 in Marion county
where indianapolis is located.

Culbers0n Gets the Cate
In Texas Primary After 80
Years in Arena of Politics
BY JAMES r RECORD.

Copyright 1922, by The Arguso
Fort Worth, Texas. July 20
After serving Texas in high office
continually for 30 years, United
States Senator Charles A. Culber-
son, who won his political spurs as
the Little Christian Governor
finally has been retired
His defeat in Saturdays primar-
les, confirmed by today's count
was the first he ever suffered in
his long career. For the first time
in 60 years the voice of a Culber-
son will not be dominant in Texas
politics. Long before Charley"
Culberson attained prominence in
the seats of the mighty Of the DEM
0cratic party, his father, Uncle
Dave" Culberson, represented the
old First Texas district in the halls
Of congress. In fact "Daye" Cul-
berson died while a representative
and leader in the party in the
state.
Mayfield Is Winner.
His son succeeded him in power
and influence only to fall victim in
the primaries to a Ku Klux candi-
date and an advocate of the manu-
facture and sale of light wines and
beer. Texas has a double primary
system. First place In the initial
contest went to Earle Mayfeld,
state railroad commissioner and
generally hailed as the Klan can

paign in which, since January he
has delivered $50 speeches, May
field has concluded each address
by waving violently an American
flag and announcing that he will
make every foreigner who comes to
the United States kneel and kiss it.
Second place is held by James
Ferguson, once impeached and re-
moved from Office as governor. He
advocates restoration of light wines
and beer and during the campaign
