?IW vw?? t NOT YET AT E?0 | . 1 EFFORT FAILS TO INSURE 1 VOTE TODAY? OUTCOME RESTS ON FINAL POSITION TO BE TAKEN BY SEVERAL SENATORS Washington, Jan. 12.?The fight in the senate over the right of Tru_ '> man H. Newberry (Republican) of Michigan to a seat in that body, which has been contested by Henry Ford, his opponent In the 1918 elec tion, continued in all of its in_ i tensity today. When the session ended tonight predictions of the outcome generality were held in abeyance, so uncertain had the re sult become. It was agreed among leaders that the outcone rested on s * the final postion to 'be taken by fewer than half a dozen senators, whos attitude has not been disclose. ed. Hopes for a vote today were dashed eariy by last minute de mands of senators desiring more v time to speak. Even an attempt by ? SenAor Spencer (Republican) of Missouri who is leading the ftew_ berry supporters to -obtain an agreement to vote at 4 o'clock to morrow was blocked, Senator King (Democrat) of Utah objecting. Mr. King suggested the agreement might be ehtered into tomorrow if brought up tihen. The introduction of two new res olutions dealing with Mr. New berry's right to a seat also compli cated efforts to bring their the con troversy to a close and deferred agreement on a possible voting time. As a resudt of the new reso_ lotions being1 put in, those senators ' whose time had 'been exhausted un_ der the hour of limitation imposed by unanimous consent, again could gain the floor and several took ad_ ' * vantage of the opportunity. The reeolataoita. brought in today, both to declare' the seat vacant, J were by Senators Owen of Okla homa and Walsh of Montana, Dem_ ( ocrats. Mr. Ofrensad he had sought to eliminate all disputed points in the controversy so that the senate could determine solely whether it was sound public policy that such large aoMunts of money should be ( eacpended ia a campaign. Mr. 1 Walsh's ' resolution represented a J recasting of his original proposition 1 declaring the seat vacant but re_ 1 drafted "to express in firmest tone" c a statement of the senate's views 1 with reapect to the welfare of the 5 nation, when large sums of money are used in a campaign election. 1 ' The possibility of a move by the 1 Democrats to seek the recommit the whole case to the senate elections and privileges committee temporari ly set aside during the day, was talked of again after the close of the debate, No decision was report ed, however, as to whether such a motion should be made. Leaders said tonight that further informal conferences would be held among the Democrats before the senate meets tomorrow. W ANTS FOR RENT?An upstairs apartment.

El BUSINESS OUTLOOK COMES UP TO LAST YEAR?OUTPUT TO BE REGULATED BY DEMAND AND ALSO BY ABILITY TO PAY NOT PRODUCING MUCH. Charleston, Jan. 12.?With sever ll more or less perplexing factors en uring into the situation, the outlook for the fertilizer industry in Charles ;on, as well as in th^. South general y, is regarded as problematical, but >n the whole it can be stated that ;his industry, which is one of Char eston's most important, has passed ;he worst period of the . depression vhi</h struck it with full force last rear, and is now groping its way to i more hopeful condition. One local ertilizer man is of the opinion that he business this year will in volume )e approximately the same as last th le; of M fa Ci at rear, when just about half the nor nal business was done. The session of fertilizer shipments lsually commence here about Janu iry 1 to January 15, but this year it s not expeeted to open until at least February 1. \Vith few exceptions, he local factories have been closed ;ince last March, a few being tem porarily in operation now. The fac ories have adopted a very conserva ive policy in manufacturing and aire lot producing beyond what is requir ed to take care of current business, t has been a number of months since icid phosphate, one of the most im jortant of fertilizers, has been man cactured, and if the demand for \his aroduct is as great as last year, there is likely to be a shortage. The stocks >n hand at present in the factories ronsist almost entirely of raw prod lcts. We are unloading a car of the jest Lump Coal at $9.00 per ton. Ltc AMOS B. MORSE CO. 1921 HEALTHIEST YEAR, BUT AUTO DEATHS HIGHER !)ver 150,000 Fewer Deaths Than in Previous Year Says Life In surance man. . New York, Jan. 12.?There were 153,000 fewer deaths in the United States and Canada in 1921 than in L920, said Robert Lynn Cox, 3rd rice-president of the Metropolitan L?:fe Insurance Company, in an ad Iress before the 15th annual conven ;ion of the Association of Life In surance Presidents "here recently. Mr. Cox presented statistics based ipon official records of companies ;ransacting 80 per cent of the life nsurance business which he said, nay "indicate the dawn of a material A-f + Vtn cno r? rvf Kiimnn WilgVUVUlllg Vi. VilV ife in the two countries." The fig ires show that this year will be en ;ered on the records as "the health est ever experienced." Motor-driverf vehicles, however, are exacting an ilarmingly growing toll of victims. The statistics compiled from the nortality experience of 37 compan es, covered 27,000,000 human lives vhich of necessity reflect the gener il health conditions throughout vthe sountry. The most amazing factor in he health situation of the year draw ng to a close, according to Mr. Cox, s the almost complete disappearance )f influenza as a cause of death, only 1,716 being reported for 10 months )f 1921 as against 25,400 for the cor responding period of 1920, which ,vas not regarded as an epidemic re,r Excess insurance losses of 1918 md 1919 occasioned by influenza ,vere estimated conservatively at nore than $170,000,000. The present /ear's mortality grain, translated in A* maiav oavaH in the navment of ieath cla.ms by all life insurance companies of the United States for L 921, tneasured by outstanding in surance, according to Mr. Cox, will amount in round numbers to at least 551,000,000. "A matter of no small concern among increasing causes of death,' 3aid Mr. Cox, "is the steadily mount ing mortality caused by automobiles and other motor-driven vehicles. The number of deaths in 1921, reported by the life insurance companies that furnished their figures for the com pilation on which this paper is based, was 2,624, an increase of nearly 15 per cent over 1920.
