he had never met an officer OF Bordens IN

matter ruled out Observation-Disclosures
another lively fight, in which Senators
Grady and Bracket again took leading
parts Mr. LttletoI contended that 1t
was most important to his case to show
that Aids, though recorded as voting
for this bill, really did not do so. and
fought it where possible. Senator
Bracket reiterated his statement that to
admit such evidence would open the way
for the endless manufacture Of evidence
by man in his own defence
Grady agreed with the Aids lawyer
and maintained that what happened IN
this instance in 1909 might easily have
furnished motive for Conger's attack on
Aids in 1910 He declared it was in
sufferable'' that there should not be
full, frank and free discussion OF the
case. but that lawyers objections should
be interposed to shut out matter gong
right to the heart Of the case. 10
cut out further speechmaking, Senator
Davis said he would rule on the ques-
ton later. after Grady had threatened
to appeal from the ruling OF the chalr
IL the chair ruled as he did yesterday.
THAT appeal would have made necessary

members had left town
GRADY'S STAND SIG NIFICAET?
Senator Grady's stand is significant if
it foreshadows a leaning of the Demo
cratic Senators toward Aids. The ~
vestigation has reached stage where
speculation about the opinions OF the
various Senators will not down, ana
every word on the floor OF the Senate
that indicates an inclination one way CT
the other is eagerly taken up and dis
cussed In the debates that have accom-
panied the taking Of testimony thus far
the so-calied 'insurgent" Senators-those
who attended the now famous meeting
at the Ten Eyck which framed protest
against the selection of Aids as majority
leader and TO whom Conger first breathed
his charges-have consistently stood by
Allds'S accuser.
Some Of the Democrats have expressed
sentiments regarding the admisslbility
of evidence similar to Gradys; but
there has been nothing to show that the
minority Will act as unit when the
final vote Is taken. Inc value " 'iio
Democratic party of a verdict adverse
to Aids is openly recognized. II Alius
is acquitted, all Congers testimony in
volVing the Republican organization IN
the scandal viii fall. But counter to
:ais is the opinion that Conser and ms
witnesses have delivered their shots
yrith such lasting effect that the people
of the state may not be satisfied TO take
@ Judgment of the Senate in favor of
:ne defendant More than one Demo
crat has expressed the belief that the
turning down of Conger's charges would
react against Republican prospects at
the coming state election as severely
as their vindication, although in a diff
ferent way.

Aids side. evidently to show that Moe
