Before adjourning the
committee appointed a meeting for
Wednesday afternoon at 4:30 to
hear Mr. Morgan's answer to Mr
Bingham's attack upon the consti
tutionality of his measure. Mr.
Morgan appeared Wednesday after
noon and had saiJ but a few words
when the cointnittte informed him
that if his bill applied to the entire
state it would not be favorably re
ported. That put Mr. Morg n and
Mr. Bingham out of the race.
When ll.e meeting adjourned.
Chairman Hunt informed Mr Bing

Marsters, who caid that whatever
