LAWYERS of the Senate locked horns again
to-day. when an effort was made TO pass

Der of absentees appeared on the floor
The Curnmins bill was then displaced by
the unfinished business. Half an hour was
devoted to bills on the calendar and ad-
iC,FnI:1ent taken until Monday.
Senators Cummins and Nelson defended
the bill while Senators Root and Hepburn
opposed it. Mir. Root said that under the
bill a corporation printing newspaper in
New York could be indicted for libel in
every district Of the United States, and
brought into court hundreds of miles away
from its principal Office without any oppor-
tunity to say why it should not answer the
summons.
making libel a crime against the laws of
the United States.
Libel might be a crime against the fed
eral laws. Mr. Root replied. He recalled
spending several weeks some years ago
showing reasons why a New York editor
should not be brought to Washington to be
tried for libel. Mr.. Root offered an amend
ment requiring the Judge of the district in
which a corporation has its principal office
TO indorse an indictment found by court
in another district before the indicted cor
poration shall be held TO answer to the
Indictment
This was opposed by Senators Nelson and
Cummns. who said its effect would be to
enable a district judge III New York to
veto an Indictment against a New York
corporation found il a United States court
outside OF New York.

HUGHES DEFENDED.
Bennett Praises GoUernor,s
Stand on Income TdT.
IFrom The Tribune Bureau


Washington Feb IA vigorous de-
fence of Governor Hughes's position on
the income tax amendment was made. and
a notable tribute to the ability and char
acter of the New York Executive was paid
bv Representative William S. Bennett in
closing debate in the House on the dip
lomatic and consular appropriation bill
to-day The charge had been made by
Representative Cordel1 Hull, of Tennessee,
and somewhat less directly by Representa-
tive Finley, of South Carolina, that Gov
ernor Hughes's objection TO the income
tax amendment was to enable large bust
ness interests to escape the payment of
their share of taxes. Mr.. Finley declared
that Governor Hughes was leaving public
life because of ''UncongeniaI companions,
and alluded to Representative Bennett and
other leaders. Mr.. Bennet's speech was
declared by Mr.. Finley to be in further
ance of his aspirations for the governor
ship.
Mr. Bennett said it should be clearly I'M
derstood that Governor Hughes desired a
further amendment to the income tax
proposal. removing the restriction to ap-
portionment by population or assessed
valuation. I'VE have never had a Gov
ernor" he declared, I'VE have never had
a public official in our state. who has been
less subservient TO the material interests
than Governor Hughes has been during
his term of office" Mr.. Bennett added that
the New York Legislature would take no
action which would not be in the inter-
ests of the entire country The state.

he said, aggregated about s., 900, coo more

jure the state The political career Of
Governor Hughes, he added, proved that
he was not subservient TO wealth, because

JEFF DAVIS CAUGHT MAPPING.
In His Absence Senate Passes Bill He
Opposed
from The Tribune Bureau


Washington. Feb 1l.-When Senator Jeff
Davis receives The Congressional Rec
ord tomorrow he will probably realize
that there are few practical dividends in
indulgins in wholesale criticism of his
colleagues and in making light of what is
known as Senatorial courtesy.
Mr.. Davis was absent from the Senate
this afternoon when Senator Flint reported
\ hill authorizing the construction of pipe
lines over portions OF the public domain
in Arkansas. Senator Owen asked for the
immediate consideration of the bill, and
vote was about to be taken on it when
Senator 0verman asked if it met the ap-
prevail of the Senators from Arkansas
Ny owen replied that it was supported by
Senator Clarke and opposed by Senator
Davis. Mr Overman suggested that he
thought il was hardly fair to act on the
hill in the absence Of Senator Davis, TO
which Mr. owen replied that the Bill had
been delayed in committee because OF the
or1position Of the Arkansas Senator. Inc
legislation was of great importance TO the
oil fields Of Oklahoma, as the new pipe hhe
would carry twenty thousand barrels OF OH

twenty miles OF pipe lines to reach the

on immediate action.
No objection was made 10 Mr.. owen re

the perspective with which they may
view the merits of these claims
on February l Mr.. Penrose submitted
an adverse report on all the resolutions,
and they were indefinitely postponed,
without debate. This is the report which,
il IS alleged. was held up at the Govern
ment Printing Office. The delay in
printing it aroused Mr.. Penrose and
others. and they insisted on the dismiss
sal of IIr. Turner.
The whole affair would doubtless pass
as merely an instance of clerical over
sight were it not for the persistent
1umor which connects the name Of
United States Senator with the shrewdly
devised effort to obtain this legislation.
