[Special Dispateh to The Evening Star.) MEMPHIS, TENN., Noy. 10.—The status of tha egislature 1s the most interesting political question in this state and has been for several days. Some of the counties composing legis- lative districts are so remote from railway and telegraph lines, that it requires a week or two to hear from them. The state-debt and low- tax democrats, together will have a majority of the legislature on joint ballot and will, no doubt, elect a democrat U.S. Senator. Itis said thal Gov. Marks will be the Senator, He has never taken a decided position on the debt question, but has trimmed so as to keep tn with both wings in tbe party. Senator Bailey can- vassea the state for the debt-payers, and is no:, therefore, a favorite with the repudiation dem- ccrats. ‘There are several seats in the legisla- lure In dispute, and these will all be decided fo favor of the democrats, as they control the de- termining power.
