the grounds upon which the appeal will
be based There is little doubt however.
that it will be contended the trial court
erred in denying Mr.. Lchmann's motion To
dismiss the entire indictment on grounds
Of lack of jurisdiction in regard to the

agreed to receive compensation for acting
as an attorney before the Postofflce de-

the evidence adduced by the government
that Senator Burton ever received COM

It is also probable that the bill Of excep-

examination of Senator Burton upon Ger

fcrred to in the examination in chief Those
parts Of the testimony to which the OBJ

NO FLOWERS in CONGRESS
Officers of Both Houses VIII stop All
Floral Pieces at Door on
Opening Day.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-There will he
no flowers in either house on the opening
day of congress. Two years ago. soon after
Speaker Cannon was sworn I'm and an at
tempt was made to bring i'm large floral
pieces and place them upon the desks OF
members, the speaker issued positive orders
TO stop the proceeding and the banks OF
flowers remained in the Hobbies until they
were sent to the homes of the members.
A standing resolution Of the senate was
adopted during the last session OF con-
gress barring flowers from the senate
chamber. Mr.. Cannon has already given
notice that he will not allow the flowers
to be brought I'm as heretofore. The flower
practice started as a tribute TO different
senators and representatives when they
returned 20 Washington at the beginning
OF sessions Of congress. Rivalry of ad-
mirers of different members of both houses
reached the stage where half the desks
were buried in flowers and the persons they
were meant to compliment We're completely
hidden behind tho productions OF the
florists. The officers of both houses have
been Informed that there will be no floral
display and flowers intended for members
will probably be stopped at the doors OF the
capitol on the opening day.

Foil, About His share In Plot to
Escape from Prison.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo, Nov. 2-Gov-
ernor Folk tonight announced that he
would offer a reward of $500 for the arrest

were together in their cell that he had ex-
plosives by which he could blow up the
stockade and they could escape. Later,
when it was discovered that Vaughan did
not have a sufficient amount Of the ex-
plosive. il was decided To hold up the dep
uty warden and make him let them out
through the round gate Blake was loco
motive engineer and the plan was TO cap

Vaughan took the other convict4 to the
sole leather room of the factory and
showed them the pistols and the amunl-
tion. Vaughan had kept these hidden all
! the time
J Vaughan refused TO make any statement.

urday night that the supplies might have
been brought into the prison by freight or
by express with goods brought into the
