CONGRESS.
Senate's Time Taken Up With the
PinkertOn Resolution.
After Considerable Discussion 1t Is Adopted

ard Then Adjourns.
SENATE.

WAsHINGToN, Aug. 2.-The resolution for
the appointment Of select committee TO
look into the Pinkertons, occupied most of
the time of the Senate today. Sherman
thought the question sho7ld not be taken
up now. The House had already examined
the matter, and the subject involved to
some extent the domain of q sovereign
stste. The Senate itself had no quorum
He knew the question was q very impor-
tant one, and hoped the resolution would
go over to the next session, when it could
receive proper attention.
Palmer said the Importance of the in
vestigato1 couldn't be overstated. The
country would be startled at Tie amount Of
information that would be collected as to
which of such dangerous semi-politicaI and
semi-miiitary organizations were employed.
They ought 10 be hunted down as enemies
Of mankind.
Vest also favored the investigation. Quay
said If the committee could go to Home
stead and influence an adjustment it would
be welcome, otherwise the people would
not be satisfied with it.
After the discussion the resolution was
adopted without division. Adjourned.

ARGUMENTS OF COUNSEL
In the Case of the Unit-d States Against the
Trans-Missouri Traffic Association.


CHEYENNE, wy. Aug. Especial tele-
gram to THE HERALD. THE second day
Of the case of the United States against
the Trans Missouri Traffic association, in
which it is claimed that the latter is a
trust and should be dissolved, introduced
Hon. George r. Beck, counsel for the
Santa Re and the first orator for tue de-
Tense He talked four hours as against
the 1ive occupied by Judge Ady. govern
ment attorney for the state Of Kansas and
the originator of the suit. In concluding
this forenoon Mr.. Ady held right to the
line that the defendant was q blind pool or
trust; that it was amsuable to no ordinary
laws; that It had shelved competition in its
territory which is west Of the Missouri
river. He maintained that having become
m offensive institution. composed of cor
porations. it could only be reached through
application Of the antitrust law of Con-
gress. MIR. Ady was quite careless in the
use Of language, but he made
every point clear without being tiresome
Mr.. Beck is a much younger man than Mr.
Ady, and he went after his adversary of
the people in vigorous, choppy style. The
OanLd re cOUnseAOr gave an explicit MS
tory of the confused and unfortunate hap
penings which made the cementing Of the
corporations into a common interest ne
ceSsiiy. He ssid they were combined to
keep in force rates that would pay them
FOR the operation Of their lines; that would
avoid decentralization Of business: that
would be fair A principal purpose was to
improve the service. and this had been ac-
complished. together with the maintenance
of rates that were satisfactory al around.
lie said THAI the ruinous competition was
still there, for the reason that any CON-
psng could cut loose and play lonely on a
days notice.

NIPPED In THE BUD
A Conspiracy to Defraud Five
Chicago Banks.
Dtt,is OF the Scheme ConcOc ed by These
Nspoleons OF Fira1ce-Ttelr Paper
Protss ed 100 Som.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-The flight Of George
Bartels, paying teller of the Capital Trust
and Savings bank, with $4,000 cash, has
unsarthed what seems to have been con-
spiracy to defraud five Chicago banks. The
scheme was partially successful and over
$50, 900 was received from Bartels' employ
ers, but mas since been made good. An
other bank is said to have lost $4,000,
which amount was also made good.
Three men formerly connected with the
Chicago bank have been arrested, charged
with conspiracy to defraud. These are
William A. Forbes. n. w. Burnside and
Charles Nannon. Barfels was the fourth
man wanted. The preliminary hearing is
set for. Thursday Charles Nichols, the
go between, has made an affidavit support
ing an expose of the whole scheme. An
application for a receiver for the whole
concern has been fled by the former pres
ident OF the company, and this investment
throws light upon the method used.
Forbes was manager of The Chicago Bank
Note company, Burnside, soa OF well
known physician, was associated with
Forbes. Arson was az employee of the
firm. The young men had been vuuehed
for by numerous wealthy and financial
men, and on the strength OF this. opened
an account with the Centennial Trust Saw
ings bank, State Bank OF Chicago. First
National bank and the Milwaukee
Avenue State bank Immediately.
They deposited checks, drafts. etc,
which have since been found 10 be fraudu-
lent and later drew cut cash by colIusiOn
with the teller. Bartels great run OF paper
was dumped on the Central Trust Savings
bank.
II is said the plotters intended to pull all
the banks they had money deposited with
into their net and then break up and clear
out, but their paper came TO protest too
soon. Bartels disarmed suspicion by in
geniously warning the bank officials that
he was suspicious that tue note company
was s.kfting' and suggested that a general
guarantee OF the transactions be secured
from the wealthy men.

INVESTIGATING THE ''DRUNK" CHARGE
Cobb of Alabama took the stand in his
own defense today. Several days before
his speech in the Noy Rockwell debate
he was engaged in the laborious work of
gathering material. ETC. His throat trou-
bled him, and before beginning his speech
he requested an employee of the House to
bring him a cup OF beef tea. From time TO
time be had this sent back and replenished.
Watsou's assertion that he had told the
page to bring more whiskey was untrue,
for be never said it. When whiskey was
brought by the page for beef tea and
placed on his desk he did not know; he
was too much engaged at the
time in his argument to notice
who placed it on the desk
Cobb ackncs lodged that whisky was
brought him during the course of the even
ing by some friend, but only 10 relieve his
throat. II it affected him in voice or man
ner he was not conscious of it. He had
drank q little beer during the day. When
the whisky was put before him he slipped
II TWO or three timee, and when he con-
Guided his remarks took another sip but
was not made drunk by it.
