Sides in Trial of Strother
Brothers.

Culpepper Va, March 1.-The at
tempt of the defense to show that
Phillip and James A. Strother, charged
with the murder of William F. Bywa-
ters their brother-in Law, were laboring
under emotional insanity on the night
of the shooting was the feature of
their trial today. Two witnesses, one
called by the defense to prove its the

other by the state in rebuttal, gave ex-
pert opinions.

SMOOT HAS HIS EXPENSES
Protestants Are Out of Pocket-De-
bate in the Senate Over Two
or Three Amendments.
Especial to The Herald }

Washington. March 2.-There was a
revival of the Smoot case in the senate
today. when an amendment to the gen.
erai deficiency bill. giving Smoot $4,000
to pay for the expenses of counsel IN
his contest. was considered. This
amendment was adopted without dis
cussion. but later Senator McLauren
of Mississippi called attention to the
fact that the protestants against Smoot
had incurred expenses for counsel and
proposed an amendment to the bill pro-
posing to pay them $4,000 to reimburse
them for these expenses This amend
ment was ia bled by viva voce vote, and
McLauren then offered one appropriat-
ing $500 for the same purpose. He
cOntended that the prCtestants in the
Smoot case occupied substantially the
same ground as the contestant In an
election case. and were entitled 10 be
reimbursed for expenses. Senator Du-
bois explained that these expenses had
been borne by several ministerial asso-
Citations, and by women's clubs and as
socia tons. and funds expended had
been used to pay counsel in the Smoot
case.
Senators Bacon, Carmack. Clay and
Daniel vigorously opposed the adoption
of the McLauren amendment as form
be followed indescTiminately by per-
sons wishing to annoy any senator
who might be elected, II those wishing
to annoy him were assured that their
expenses would be borne by the gov
eminent.
Senator Burrows explained that At
torneys Tayler and Carlisle had ap-
peared for the protestanfs. and Worth
ington and Van Colt for Smoot, in the
| case, and that the expenses of wit
nesses had been paid by the govern
ment.
McLauren with some warmth assert
ed that the women who had worked
hard to keep a man out of the senate
who In their estimation was unworthy
TO have a seat In that body, should
not be turned down, Personally he
disclained any feeling against Smoot.
but urged the justice Of paying the ex-
penses of employing counsel against
him as we'll as for him. Senator Hale.
In charge Of the bill, moved to lay the
amendment on the table and this was
adopted without division
