For Which No Service Was Rendered Ac- cording to The
 Statement
DENOUNCES APPOINTMENT OF INCOMPETENT ATTORNEYS.
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE DE FICIT IS NOT DUE TO THE PAYMENTS MADE TO
 HENEY.
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press
 WASHINGTON, D. C., July 19.- That Francis J. Heney, special coun- sel for the department of justice, and famous graft prosecutor, at San Francisco, received from the govern ment last year $23,OOO for which he rendered no service whatever, was the statement of Chairman Tawney of the appropriations committee of the house today. Tawney asserted, however, that the payment of Heney's salary had nothing to do with the $27,OOO deficiency in the department of justice.
 Answering queries, he said the pros ecution of the tobacco trust was part ly responsible, and the prosecution of the turpentine trust also used part of the funds.
 Clark of Missouri denounced the appointment of incompetent district attorneys. He declared if the gov ernment had competent prosecutors it would have no need of any great ex- pense by having special prosecutors, which, he said, was growing to be a fad and to be nothing less than steal ing.
 Mann of Illinois, supplementing Tawney's statement, said Heney need ed no defense.
 Fearful that Heney would get a further allowance, Fitzgerald offered an amendment prohibiting it, but the amendment was voted down.
 The Calhoun Trial.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 19.- The case of Calhoun, charged with offering a bribe to Former Super visor John J. Furey, was called in Judge Lawler's court today and both sides answered ready, and the trial was begun.
 Calhoun was in court with his le- gal representatives, except Rogers and King. Langdon alone appeared for the state, Heney now being in Alaska. He is expected to return by the time the jury is completed. A hundred talesmen were drawn and the examination of jurors was be- gun.
 Twenty-four talesmen were exam ined the first day of the second trial of Calhoun, for the alleged overhead trolley bribe. All those challenged were excused. It was evident that most of the talesmen were anxious to avoid service on the jury, and only few questions served to dis qualify several.
 Heney assumes charge when he returns from his trip to Alaska. In like the first trial of the trolley mag nate, when the court room was jam

CONFEREES ARE INVITED TO
 DINNER
PRESIDENT IS EXPECTED TO RE PORT PROGRESS OF ABOLISH ING THE TARIFF
 RATES.
By Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 19.- conference committee have been in vited to a dinner at the White House Wednesday night. It is assumed that the president expects to be ready to report his progress in getting votes for the abolition or the reduction of duties on raw materials. There is a persistent report that the president will not be satisfied except with free oil, iron, reduced hides, coal and lumber.
 Older congressman predict a de- mand for every concession possible without endangering the adoption of the conference report. Senator Borah said that most of the western senators would be afraid to go home if the reduction program, including hides, goes through.
 Accepts Corporation Tax.
 WASHINGTON, D. C., July 19.- At the forenoon session of the con ference committee on the tariff it was agreed to accept the senate's cor poration tax amendment, but the agreement was not reached until the provision had been drafted by the at torney general and many changes made.
 Women Besiege President.
 WASHINGTON, D. C., July 19.- Joining the crusade started by Mrs. Beulah Amidon of the General Fed eration of Women's Clubs, hundreds of women are deluging the president with letters urging him to prohibit "wet goods' demanded by the pres ident to define whisky as the product solely of the distillation of grains.
