that no decision was reached.

Patient Much Better,

DR.. Coupal found the patient better
than yesterday when he arrived here
The colonel was able to sit up for
meals and converse at length with the
Presidents medical adviser.
Later Maj. Coupal talked with
Washington over the special long
distance line which is reserved In the
general store Tor communication with
the White House.
Whatever the outcome of DR..
Coupals negotiations may be, there is
at least one resident of Plymouth
who will remain skcptical until the
last. He is John Wilder, whose prop

whose wife is an aunt of the PreSi-

his nefghbor may be prevailed upon

group of newspaper men and villagers

will be successful, hut Il is agreed
on all sides that Col. Coolidge must
be the one TO decide.
The cool and crisp weather was

materially. Although his appetite
has not been hearty, he was able TO
pslrtake OF some solids AT his meals
and was represented TO he in general
good spirits.
Col. Coolidge was stricken week

an aiment known as heart block
Numerous severe attacks We're noted
and on Wednesday his condition was
admittedly grave. although not criti-
cal. Since then he has shown some
improvement. but his condition con
tinueS serious.
The heart block first was noted last

MAJORITY Is 1926

Madison, Wis, Sept. 3O.-P)-
The people Of Wisconsin "havc
rr-afiirmed their faith in the
fundamental principles of the
progressive movement and have
re-enlisted in the struggle to
wrest control of the government
from the special interests en-
trenched at Washington" Rob-
crt NJ. La Toilette, Jr., senator
elect from Wisconsin. declared
today.
Milwaukee, Wis, Sept. 3O.-LP---
Wisconsin again placed the stamp Of
approval upon the name Of La Fol-
lettc and ut special election held
yesterday chose the 3O-year-old son
of its late senator to represent the
badger state in the United States
senate.
The approval was emphatic as
shown by the enormous majorites
that all but one county in the state
gave to the new senator. Only one,
Rock, home of the stalwart section
of the republican party, refused to
bow to Robert NJ. La Toilette, Jr.
With 315 precincts of the 2,692 in
the state missing early this morn
ing. owing to the heavy rains in the
northwest section of the state. La
Toilette showed a plurality of l34 4,54l
over Edward F. Dithmar of Baraboo,
independent and . majority of 49,
9l5.
Half Strength
Approximately half the voting
strength Of the state went to the
polls, and returns from 2,377 pre-
cincts showed that 33l, 1887 votes were
cast. although in the election of 1924
slightly more than 100000 votes were
polled. The Tuesdays election vote
was slightly larger than that polled
in the primary Of September Is.
The new senator went on record
during both his primary and election
campaigns as unqualifiedly endors-
ing the platform of the Wheeler-La
Toilette party of 1924. He empha-
sized. however, that the contest in
which he was engaged was "between
man who will stand behind the
Coolidge administration and one who
will follow in the footsteps Of Rob-
ert Marion La Toilette"
He promised to carry on the work
started by his father and made this
one of his leading pleas for votes.
Socialists Routed
One of the surprises of the cleo
tion was the weakness displayed by
the socialists in Milwaukee. For
the first time in Is years they failed
to carry a single ward in the city of
Milwaukee, while La Toilette romped
home winner in a majority of
them.
The socialist candidate, John NJ
Work, ran third in the senatorial
contest, polling 1902 votes.
The democratic candidate, William
George Bruce, running rs an inde-
pendent, owing to the fact that he
did not poll enough votes in the pr-
mary to permit his name to 60 un-
der the democratic emblem. ran
fourth, with vote of 1857. These
votes we're in 2,377 precincts out of
1892 in the state. The La Toilette
Dithmar votes in these precincts
we're: La Toilette, 222,l5l; Dithmar
S7.6O7; George Bauman, the socialist
candidate, had 700 votes.
The late Senator Robert M. La Fol-
lette was elected in 1922 and his son
will fill his unexpired term which
ends March I, 1929.

are still alive and his feeling i.
shared by Captain f. J. King, com.
mander of the Submarine Base

chance of any survivors being found
Forty deep sea divers are aboard
the boats of the rescue fleet anxious
to aid in the effort to reach the
sunken submarine before all hope is
abandoned. Several trips were made
to the ocean floor yesterday. Two
bodies were brought to the surface
on early trips and later the divers
cleared away debris and took Other
steps to enable them to continue the
search of the hull more expediti

Officers Mt the Submarine Base
today said that it might be neces

Such step. however, would have
to be ordered by the Navy Depart,
ment at Washington and probabl!
would be taken only upon the rec
