ILLINOIS LIKELY TO ELECT SMITH DESPipSULL Voters Apparently Ignore Slush Fund Revelations. Bit Times Special CHICAGO, Sept. 10. voters seem likely to elect Frank L. Smith United States Senator despite his acceptance of campaign contributions totalling $125,000 from Samuel Insull, multi-millionaire public utilities magnate. The suggestion of Julius Rosenwald, millionaire merchant and civic leader, that a high grtjde Republican be named as an independent candidate* and elected, did not get across. It received the approval of a few prominent citizens academically interested in politics, but it made no Impression on the rank and file of the voters. As in Pennsylvania the majority of the voters here are willing to accept the product of the machine, regardless of what it is. Can’t Find a Man Another obstacle to the plan is the inability thus far of Rosenwald

and those who agree with hkti to And a suitable opponent to Smith. A downstate man is considered necessary, because Senator Deneen is a Chicago resident and politics requires that the Senators be diivded between the northern and southern portions of the State. Former Governor Frank O.
Lowden, most prominent of those mentioned as a prospective Smith opponent, announced that under no circumstances would he become a candidate. Others ots prominence take the same position. is Oiled. The Illinois Republican machine, in the meantime, is preparing to defend Smith and to elect him. Data is being assembled to suppose the argument that there was no impropriety about Smith’s acceptance of $125,000 from Insull. Besides showing that George E. Brennan, Smith's Democratic opponent, also accepted $15,000 from Insull, the organization declares that in the four years Smith headed the Illinois corporation commission public utility rates to consumers were reduced $78,425,803 and Insults companies suffered 95.8 per cent of the reduction and all other companies 4.2 per cent. The Defense These figures include lower rates for gas, electricity and telephone and street car fares. The $78,425,803 is arrived at by comparing prices and consumption with the rates in effect when Smith took office. Elaborate analysis have been prepared intended t 6 show that Smith instead of helping Insull actually reduced his percentage of earnings. "Insull’B contribution won't cost Smith’s ten votes,” a Smith manager said. Others not in politics declare Smith's losses as a result of the Senate committee investigation will be enough votes to hurt, unless in the next two months there should be a surprising change of sentiment.

-The' Republican Senate camjaign committee, which has opened offices in Chicago, is preparing to help Smith just as it will help other Republican nominees and just as if there had been no dislosures.. Reports that President Coolidge might oppose Smith’s election are discounted in Chicago.
