LONG BITTER AS
MACHINE FAILS
Huey'S Forces Are Beaten
in New Orleans
Mayor Race.
By United Press

By United Press
NEW ODLEANS, Jan. 24.-Sena-
tor Huey P. Long, loser in a local
election which robbed him of his
last stronghold, fought bitterly to-
day to stave off a complete diSin-
tegration of his once all-poWerful
political machine.
While his enemies gathered from
the south parishes to celebrate his
first defeat since he rose to power,
new returns from yesterdays cleo
ton gave an increasing plurality to
Mayor T. Semmes Walmsley, run
ming for reelection. Senator Longs
candidate, John D. Florer, was run
ming close race for second place.
Senator Longs entire political fu-
ture was at stake on the results
and secluded in his guarded hotel
suite, he loosened charges of whole
sale fraud at the polls against his
rivals and said his candidate would
insist upon a run-off election pro-
vided complete returns did not give
Mr.. Walmsley a majority and Mr..
Klorer ran second. A run-off is re-
quired by law where the leading
candidate does not have a majority,
but, heretofore, the second candi-
date always has withdrawn, making
a run-off unnecessary.
Returns from 214 of the city's 262
precincts showed that Mayor
Walmsley had $4,000 votes; Mr..
Klorer, 22,894, and Francis Will
liams, third candidate, 1854.
Senator Longs control over the
country parishes which originally
were his stronghold, has evaporated
and observers believe that should
he lose out in New Orleans, which
casts one-third of the states total
vote, he quickly would be reduced
to political impotency.
Senator Long charged that 10000
illegally registered voters had
stampeded ballots and declared that
if they had not voted his candidate
would have won.

The resolution to move
headquarters was included in
a lengthy report of the inter-
national officers of the union
which was adopted after pre-
cipitating a series of five
minute orations on the motion
to adopt.
Rising in the packed convention
hall, decorated with flags and bunt-
ing of a patriotic hue, a roughly
dressed delegate demanded that the
report embody something on the al
legged dual control" situation in
some of the mining areas.
While scattered cries of protest
against adoption of the report arose
through the hall, tall, ruddy-faced
man with white hair arose and an
nounced that he was G. A. Syden-
sticker of Kingston, w. Va, miner
and a minister of the gospel"
Corporations Attacked
Explaining that many traitor
miners in West Virginia aand other
parts of the country were seeking
to undermine the work of the
United Mine Workers of America by.
attempting to organize other groups
for dual control, Mr.. Sydensticker
shouted:
IF you're true union men. you'll
indorse this report 100 per cent and
go back and tell those TRAITORS" who
are going into your homes and
churches seeking to undermine this
union, that you have Endorsed this
report and that you're proud you've
done it."
ANY man who refuses to stand
behind this union and refuses to
indorse this report is the tool of
some rotten corporation"
Thunderous cheers, mingled with
scattered boos and Kisses, greeted
Mr. Sydensticker's remarks. Several
men who had opposed adoption of
the report arose and shouted, all
trying to be heard at once. A fight
was waged to allow the speaker to
continue without interruption.
Official Probe Promised

Gap, Pa, Endorsed Mr.. Syden-
sticker's remarks and charged that
the dual control" movement in

Mr.. Bachman's automobile
was trapped between two
large sedans on state high
way No. 1, near where a ran
som of 100000 was paid to
the kidnapers of William
Hamm Jr., last year.
The two mysteriously acting auto
mobiles we're jockeyed back and
forth alongside Mr.. Bachman's car.
The latter was mystified by these
attentions. After fifteen minutes OF
such maneuvering, one of the sedans
edged Mr.. Bachman toward the
side of the road and several shots
were fred in the air.
While Mr.. Bachman remained at
the wheel of his car, the two auto

mansion yesterday and last night
indicated that young Bremer's safe
release was expected hourly. De-
jected relatives of the kidnapped

bers of federal agents were reported
to have arrived in Minneapolis for
a federal drive against the kid
napers. Adolph Bremen. father of
the kidnapers' victim.' is a personal
friend of President Roosevelt.
The federal agents have estab-
hshed headquarters in Minneapolis,
il was reported. The elder Mr.. Bre-
mer has refused to confer with po-
lice or federal agents, believing that
such cooperation would jeopardize
his sons safety.
Police Plan Destroyed
This attitude was believed to have
destroyed prearranged plans where
by a special anti-kidnaping squad of
St. Paul police had planned to de-
stroy the kidnapers by forcing the
delivery Of the victim at the same
time the ransom was paid. The
police squad wearing bullet proof
vests then planned to use its ma
chine guns to prevent the kid
nspers' escape.
II any genuine ransom delivery
was attempted last night, police be-
lieved it had failed because of the
mistake over Mr.. Bachman's auto
mobile.
Details of the ransom delivery
attempt we're contained in two
notes and a telephone call received
by DR.. H. T. Nippert, Bremen family
physician, the United Press hac
