April. 7.?-Senat r Thomas 8 .Marlin of Virginia waa ?elected at the Democratic senate caucus today a-* permanent caucus chairman and minority leader during the present congress. He received II out of the 37 votes cast, 16 going to Senator Ben). F. Shlvely ef Indiana. Senator W. E. Chut sj a| West Vlr gtnla was elected secretary. being elected by acclamation. Senator Owen declined reelection as secre? tary. The eipected long conteat did not develop. Prior to the session the progressive Democrats, as follow? ers of William J. Bryan prefer to be deslrnated. met In the office of Sena? tor (rwen to canvass the situation. A number found themselves in an embarrassing position, because of pledgee made many weeks ago that they would support Mr. Martin for the minority leadership. It was de? cided that the progressives should vote for Senator Newlands of Nevada, aa Senator Culberson of Texas and Stone of Missouri both declined to be eosne candldatea The plan was changed In caucus, however, when It waa learned that Mr. Shlvely, who was the vice chairman under the leadership of Senator Money during the last congress, would not object to receiving the complimentary vote ef thoee who would not vote for Mr. Martin. Mr. Martin waa nominated by Sen? ator Clark (Ark.) and Senator Shlve? ly by Senator Kern (Ind.). Senator Stone seconded the Shlvely nomina? tion. The 17 votes cast account for the Democratic strength except four. SJanators Tlllman of South Carolina, Terrell of Georgia and Shlvely were absent because of Illness, and Senator Martin did not vote. The roll cell follows: For Martin: Bacon, Bailey Bankhead. Bryan (Fla.) Chllton, Clarke, Culberson. Fletcher. Foster. Johnetone, Overman, Paynter, Percy, Hayner. Simmons, Smith (Md.), swdpvcn, Taylor. Thornton. Watson aad Wlllla ua For Shlvely: Chamberlain. Davis. Oorv. Uluhcock. Johusuu (Mo.), stern. I?a. Martin. Myers, Newlands, O'Oorman. Owen. Pomerene, Held, Smith (& C). Stone. The fact that the battle had been fought In advance v?f the caucus en? abled the Democrats to keep In the background all the Bryan and anti Bryan sentiment manifested during the preliminary scrimmage* The friends of Senator Martin decided ln asmuch ae they had the votes to elect their candidate it would be folly to bring this question into the caucus which appeared to be entirely har montoua The appointment by Mr. Martin of a steering committee which will also serve as a committee on committees wee authorised by the caucus. The committee wl'l have to report Us pro? gramme for the Oiling of vacancies fjsj standing committees to the caucus Itself. A statement issued by Senator Owen, speaking for senators who voted against Mr. Martin, says: "Those who supported Shlvely did ?cause they are militant pro? 's Democrats determined to en he policies of the national pro -? <e Democrats .and they feared Hast ute country might feel that Sen? ator Martin would not be regarded as progressive as the coutry had a right to expect of the leader of the senate.

Obscuring of Sun's face to He Plain? ly Visible Here. Charleston, April 8.?On the 28th day of this mouth people in the Stale will have an excellent opportunity of obesrving a total eclipse of the sun, which will be more plainly visible here than any other eclipse for years. The eclipse w 111 be visible here as an obscuring of two digits of the south? ern limit of the sun. This means that from this point the moon will totally blot out a portion from the lower part of the sun, which will represent in size two astronomical digits. Many people in this city will get out their smoked glasses and amateur telescopes aud attempt to learn something about the king of the planets. . The eclipse will be visible in a large portion of the United States. The sun will set eclipsed east of a line drawn from Plttsburg to Matagorda Bay, Texas. Washington, D. C, is at the northern Atlautlc boundary of the area of visibility. The ecpllse v ill be Invisible north of a line drawn from Portland, Ore., through Mil? waukee and Plttsburg to Washing? ton. Tho eclipse will be very small In the Western and Middle States. At San Diego less than one-half of the sun's face will be obscured, while at Chicago less than one-sixteenth will be eclipsed. , The cities where it will be best visible are given below, with the time eclipse will begin and end: Charleston, S. C, begns 6.14 p. m. ends sun sets eclipsed. , St Louis, Mo., begins 5.43 p. m., ends 6.28 p. m . . New Orleans. La., begins 5.22 p. m. ends sun sets eclipsed. Bulelgh, N. On begins 6.23 p. ni., ends sun sets eclipsed. Jacksonville, Fla., begins 6.06 p. m., sun sets eclipsed. Little Kock, Ark., begins 6.43 p. m., ends at sunset. , Juckaon.

Louisville, Ky., begins 5.56 p. m., ends sun sets eclipsed. Richmond. V.l., contact at sunset. 1 There will be another solar eclipse this year, which will take place on October 22. This will be an annular eclipse, and will not be visible on the Western Continent. Astronomers will hall the eclipse this month with great rejoicing. Al? ready the great observatory on Mount Wilson is making preparations for observation. A solar eclipse fur? nishes valuable opportunities for the study of the sun's corona. This por? tion of the sun is practically beyond the study of the astronomer under normal conditions, because of its great brightness. When the moon passes between the earth and the sun, it is possible to train a telescope upon the corona in such a manner as not only to get photographs and observations of the corona, but what is considered far more Important, to obtain a epectroscoplc analysis of the com? position of tho corona. An effort will be made to obtain a spectroscoplc photo of the corona, which is ex? pected to add greatly to the infor? mation of astronomers concerning the iiposition o fthe solar body.
