ture. The Presidents message also is
before the subcommittee.
Considerable opposition to making the
appropriation was raised by Senator
Smoot on the ground that the Southern
Pacific Railway Company spent most of
the amount claimed in protecting its own
property and the property OF the Califor-
MIA Development Company in southern
California, which is said to be controlled
by the Hartman interests
Instead of making an appropriation of
million or more dollars in payment of
the amount which President Roosevelt
says is due Mr.. Hartman. it seems likely
that the committee will vote to send the
claim to the Court of Claims for adjudi-
cation of the conflicting interests.
1t is said that then Judgment could be
issued in accordance with all of the facts
and Mr.. Hartman could be paid a sum
equal only to the amount above what il
would have been necessary for him to eX-
pend in the protection of his own prop
erty.

Nashville. Tenn. Jan. 4J.-With the
stage set FOR the Cooper murder trial
Sc became known today that the state
had prepared a surprise for The de-
Tense By having had the body OF Sem
ator Carmack exhumed and an autopsy
held. The defense asserts that Senator
CarInack fired first. The states theory
is that Senator Caunack. with his hat
raised to greet a lady, was shot from
behind. The state now claims to have
proof that the bullet which killed Sen
ator Carmack entered his neck from
behind.
This. however. does not entirely dis
prove the theory OF the defense. Even
the defense does not claim that Col.
Cooper fired the shots Il maintains
that Robin Cooper. believing his ia
Tiers life in danger. fired upon Car
mack 10 protect his sire and IL IS not
contended that young Cooper stood
elsewhere than behind Carmack.
