FNT&ERWOOD^D HJX?8COCK || 1 WILL CONTEST FOR SENATE LEADERj Wshington, Nov. 24.?Owing- to the | recent death of the Democratic leader in the Senate, Senator Thomas S. Martin of Virginia, a contest has been 1 . started for this important post- The principal candidates are Senator! Hitchcock, the acting leader, and Senator Oscar Underwood of Alatarna. Doth are exceptionally strong men aiid 'both are strongly supported, and there is likely to be a sharp fight. The important question in the matter is, however, as to whether the President will exert his influence in behalf of one or the other of these contestants. The treaty situation may cause the President to do this, and in that event it may be that he will find it wise to favor the selection as Democratic floor leader of some person other than Senator Hitchcock, in view of the unsuccessful efforts of Mr. \ Hitchcock in connection with treaty ratification and the further fact that Jiis attitude and statements during the . a j x? CoV* ni-rtVioMv irt_ receni ireaij nsm, ?vuiu j/ivuv.u.., ? terfere with the effectiveness of any further efforts which he might make to secure concessions from, the reser| vationist Senators. | SUPREME COURT HEARS ARGUMENTS ABOUT PROHIBITION Washington, N?v. 24?The Supreme ; * Court recently heard the final arguments regarding the validity of the WaHimp "Prohibition law and the Vol- i stead Act.

PRINT PAPER MARKET STIU) HYSTERICAL New York, Nov. .24.?The psat week has brought about no material change in the news print paper situation unless it is to make it worse so far as the users of sheet print and the smaller users of roll print are concerned.
