All Americans Abroad.


AT home we are gophers or badgers. as
the case may be, while abroad we are
people of the United States without ref
erence to the states, and that is the way
1t should be-, he said.
THE people do no want to rob Con-
gress of this power. The proposition to
give the state legislatures control of sena-
tOrial elections would be like giving Con-
gress control of the election of the state
legislatures.
Senator Nelson contended that with the
main resolution accepted and the Suther-
land amendment rejected the House and
the Senate would be on an entirely differ
ent footing, which he considered incon-
sistent.
Use Army if Need Be.
In response to a question from senator
Bacon, he expressed the opinion that If
necessary Congress ought to have the
power to regulate the election of sena-
tors. even II the case shoulo be so ex-
IRENE as to require the use of the army
Senator Bacon elicited acquiescence in
the statement that the Sutherland
amendment would permit the use of
federal registrars, judges, marshals and
returning boards as we'll as the military
forces. The Minnesota senator con-

amendment he had no especial referenct
to the south.
His purpose was rather to protect the
large cities OF the north from q condition
of chaos that might arise In them. Il
want the amendment as q matter Of self
preservation and for the welfare Of the
people, he said.
rs there anything in the Sutherland
amendment involving conspiracy
against the south?' inquired Mr.. Young
OF Iowa
Nothing" responded Mr.. Nelson, "un-
less it may be regarded as a conspiracy
to maintain the Constitution as 1t is
Senator Bacon Protests.
This question and answer had the eff
feet Of bringing Senator Bacon to his
feet. Il have studiously avoided
bringing the sectional question into
the controversy" he said. II did not
want to involve the south. Other sem
ators here insisted on dragging in the
sectional discussion. We have re-
Trained, but II they will not be salts
fed otherwise we can have something
to say about the south"
MIR. Nelson declared that much as he
desired election Of senator's by direct
vote, he could not accept 1t with the re-
moval Of all federal control Of senatorial
elections. He would not have senators
look at the subject from the "uplift'
point of view, but from that Of the gen.
eral welfare.

IS FOR DIRECT VOTE
But Senator Nelson Wants
Congress to Control Elections.
FEDERAL POWER INVOLVED
Minnesotan Would Employ Army, if
Necessary, to Regulate Elec-
ton of Senators.
FEDERAL POWER INVOLVED

No opposition was encountered by Sen
ator Borah, when at 1:3O o'clock today
he called up for consideration the resolu-
ton providing for the election of United
State senators by direct vote of the
people.
Senator Nelson Immediately took the
floor. He supported the adoption of the
resolution, but advocated the Sutherland
amendment placing control of senatorial
elections in the hands Of Congress, as
necessary to the proper preservation of
the federal power in a matter essential
to its welfare. He commended that as re-
ported from committee the resolution
would have the effect of depriving Con-
gress of a power which it now has. He
contended that the people did not want
this change

the report will show.
Il have strong hopes that this legis-
lation will get through Congress at this

Senate bill can be taken from the Speak
er's table in the House and put through"

This bill was recommended by the De-
partment Of Justice at the request of
the commission appointed to investigate
the title and interest Of the federal gov
| eminent in lands within the District. II
provides a special method of procedure
for q court determination Of the United
states right to lands bordering on the

vides q new procedure for the condemna-
ton OF land IN the District. One Of the
| important changes Is to take out OF the
hands Of the President and to put in the
hands Of the courts the decisions as to
the proper persons to whom to pay the
money for the property taken.

sKY-sHooTER TESTED
Weapon Is Designed TO Destroy Aero
plunes In Warfare.

Washington. August a5.--A one
FOUNDER gun, designed by RearAd
Iniral Nathan c. Twining, chief of the
Naval Bureau OF Ordnance to destroy
aeroplanes in battle. was partially
tested at the proving grounds OF the
navy at Indian Head. Ma, yesterday. Its
preliminary performance was satisfac
tory to the ordnance experts. Only one
shot was fred and, at an angle of
eiGhty-fve degrees. the shell was sent
1000 yards into the air and dropped
into the Potomac 500 yards distant
from the gun.
The test concerned principally the
carriage of the sky shooting weapon.
This feature is believed BY the naval
officers to have been perfected. per-
uniting the elevation of the gun at al
most any angle.
The naval guns at the present time
are constructed TO shoot at objects on
a horizontal line, and one of the diff
cult problems to solve In the proposed
aerial gun is a carriage which in
some way will diminish the tremen-
dous recoN from a gun aimed in Il
practically vertical position. Another
difficulty. and probably the greatest. is
the sighting OF such gun. The
trajectory Of shell fired in the air
is radically different from one fred
horizontally. and experiments with
proposed sights will be conducted to-
morrow
If the one FOUNDER. which was manu-
featured at the Washington Navy
Yard. proves success. three or four
inch guns next Will be constructed

positive relief that the tired fans flied
out of the park. The players OF, both

lead In each sole of their shoes. and
an exhibition as has bean seen in the
local yard this season. Bobby" Vail
and Jobson were the opposing pitch
ers. and the Tar's constant smile con-
trasted strangely with the sour coun-
tenance of the former Colt. Jobson
seemed 70 feel that he was too good
for his job. and was just waiting for
some fellow to knock the chip off his
shoulder. The Bugs started the works
in the first inning. and as the game
went on the score was first in favor
81 one club and then the other team
would take the lead. With the score
tied in the seventh. Staub doubled
and brought in the winning run N.len
Curtis singled TO left score:
