MANN White SLAVE BILL
With Some Amendments, Occupies At
tention of the House.

Washington. Jan. 19.-The Mann
white slave bill, with some amend
ments as the result of the passage by
the House of the Bennett bill for the
suppression of the same traffic vas
taken up by the House today. The bill
includes provisions designed to reach
Che traffic in women by international
agreement and the interstate commerce
laws, and covers the District of Column
bia and the territories. Mann, chair
man of the interstate commerce COM
mittee, by which the bill was reported,
proposed an amendment inserting an
immunity clause for witnesses to meet
any possible inhibition by any state
imposing a penalty for giving infor-
nation. The amendment was designed,
he said. to put the bill beyond con-
Stitut!Onal question.
Bennett of New York spoke in favor
of the bill. while Richardson of Kan
sas insisted that the rights of the
state would be violated by the enact
ment. Citing many legal decisions to
sustain his position Russell of Texas
contended that the bill under consid-
Grafton was constitutional.
Consideration of the measure will
be continued tomorrow.

INSIDE TELEPHONE. FACTS
Come Out at Public Telephone Hear
ina Wednesday in New York.

New York jan 19.-Col. Albert
Clowery, president of the Western
Union Telegraph Co., as witness ana
mention of the name Of William j..
Connors of Buffalo, chairman of the
Democratic state committee, with an
alleged transfer of s2,O00,O00 in stock,
frightened the otherwise routine pro-
ceedings of the state legislative COM
mittee which is trying to determine
the advisability of placing telegraph
and telephone lines under the juris-
diction of the public service commits
sion. Hearings were resumed here to-
DAY.
In a letter addressed to the chairman
of the committee, State Senator George
A. Davis, James NJ. E. O'Grady of
Rochester. N. Y, wanted to know why
Mr.. Connors received from the pro-
motors Of an Independent telephone
company in Rochester $2,000000 worth
of stock, gratis, as was charged in tes-
timony during recent litigation against
the company. O'Grady, who is counsel
for certain stockholders in a suit
against the directors of the United
States Independent Telephone Co., re-
viewed in his letter some details of
testimony figuring in the suit at Roch-
ester in which, according to the writer
it was Sworn by Alder o. Fem, pres-
dent of the Alliance Bank of Roches-
ter, that he had issued certificate of
stock of the face value of 81, 900, 900 to
William j. Connors of Buffalo, n. Y,
without any consideration $
at the request and under di-
rection OF Thomas w. Finucane s.
because he (Mr Con-
nors) was an influential man. Finu-
cane is a Democrat state committee
man from the 41st district.
Mr.. O'Grady then concluded with
this request:
We desire to call the attention of
your committee to this transaction be-
lieving as we do that it is a matter
that your committee should investi-
gate and probe to the bottom in order
that the real reasons why this stock
was turned over to Connors should be
known and in order that proper 1egis-
lation may be had to forbid similar
transactions in the future"
The committee took the matter I'M
der advisement
The most interesting thing in Col.
Clowery's testimony, which had no
bearing whatsoever on the transaction,
in which Mr.. Connors is alleged to have
been concerned, was that his company
made an average profit of only 81
cents per message during last year

MEN WANT TO STRIKE
Though National Organizer Advises
Philadelphia Car Men Otherwise.

Philadelphia, Jan. 19.-As a result Of
a series of disagreements between the
grievance committee of the local union
and the management of the Phladel-
phia Rapid Transit Co., 5000 motormen
and conductors, members of the Anal
gamated Association of Street and
Electric Railway Employees, last night
and early today voted to strike at the
call of the executive board of the
unicn. The men claim that the COM
pany has violated the terms of the
agreement entered into at the close of
the last strike and that members of
the union have been Disseminated
against in favor of members of new
rival union.
c. o. Pratt, the local organizer, ad
vised against a strike but said that IL
the men felt that it was needed to clear
the atmosphere the national body
would stand by them OF the last ditch.
1t is probable that the national execu-
tive committee of the association will
try TO arbitrate the alleged grievances
before they give their approval.

The Republicans Of The
House in Caucus
Nominate Members Of Balm
ger-pinchot Inquiry Committee.
Rayney Rejected Democrats viii
Probably Oppose the List.

WASHINGTON Ian. 19-The caucus OF
Republican members of the House TO-
night named the House side of the
Ballinger- Pinchot investigation COM
mittee and incidentally rejected the
name of Mr.. Rayney OF limos one Vi
the Democrats selected by the Demo-
cratic caucus last Saturday night de
the House minority's representation
on the investigating committee.
The six men selected lncluue three
Regular" Republicans, mccain Oh
Massachusetts, Olmsted of Pennsyl-
vania and DENLY of Michigan one IN
surgent" Republican, Madison, Kansas,
and two Democrats, James OF Ken
lucky and Lloyd of Missouri.
Rayney. who with James was select
ed bv the Democratic caucus last Sat
urday night, was not selected by to-
nights caucus of the majority but Mr..
Lloyd was chosen instead of him.
The caucus lasted three hours. 1t
was a great deal more peaceful than
most members had expected. But six
Insurgents bolted, the other boilers be-
ing Lenroot. Nelson and Cary of Wis
consin and Davis and Lindbergh of
MINNESOTA. In several speeches,
strong objection to both James and
Rayney were voiced. 1t was alleged
that Their extreme partisanship would
UNIT them for a judicial investigation.
Against Rayney was cited in this con-
nection his activity in stirring up
trouble for the Republican administra-
ton in Panama canal matters"
The matter will probably come up in
the House tomorrow and it is now ex-
pected that the Democrats to a man
will vote to repudiate the Republican
caucus action. Incidentally there is
the question which could not be an
swered tonight, whether under the cir
cumstances Mr.. Lloyd will consent
to serve.
