CONFIRMATION OF KNOX
Senators Jones and Turner Speak in Opposition
to thesscnate's Action.
(By the Associated Press.) }

Washington, Dec 16.-Just before ad-
iournment tonight the Senate confirmed
the nomination of Hon. Philander Z.
Knox, to be Attorney General OF the
United States.
The nomination of Mr. Knox was taken
up when the Senate first went into exc
cutive session few minutes after Il
O'Clock, but the point was made that
there first should be action upon the Hay
Pauncefote treaty under the agreement
reached last Thursday. The virtue or
this plea was conceded and tentative
agreement was made that further con-
sidoration of the nominations should be
postponed until tomorrow
When, however, the Senate had dis
posed of the treaty the, ATTORNEY Gen.
erals nomination was again called UP.
The discussion Of it turned upon mo-
tion made by Senator Jones, of Arkansas,
to recommit the nomination to the Com
mittee on Judiciary, in the mean time
publishing the testimony bearing upon
the case.
Speeches in favor of this proposition
were made by Senator's Jones and Turner,
and in opposition by Senator'S Hoar and
Pettus. 1t was contended by the two
Senators last named that the only evi-
dence presented against confirmation had
been filed by members of the Antitrust
League, and was very vague and in
definite The Senator's favoring the mo-
tion said that if this were true there
could be no objection on the part of the
friends of the Attorney General to placing
all the facts within reach of the public,
and the meantime the committee should
give to the subject the more thoroughly
the public would be convinced of the fair
ness of its position when ultimately
taken. They dwelt at some length upon
the charge made that the Attorney Gen
eral previous to entering upon the du-
ties of that office had been attorney for
the United States Steel Corporation, and
the armor plate manufactures.
In reply to these accusations it was
said that it was Legitimate for an at
tcrney in private life to represent any
interest in his official capacity, and it
