TRIED TO BUY EVIDENCE

TAWNEY DRAWN INTO CASE
ALLEGED AGENT ACCUSED Ex-
MINNESOTA CONGRESSMAN
OF cRooKEDNEss

Washington, July 25.-James Keel
ey, general manager of the Chicago
Tribune, today told the senate
Lorimer investigating committee that
George o. CLAWS recent arrest on a
charge of embezzlement, was at his
(Keeley's) request. Mr.. CLAWS had
been authorized to buy lobbyists
books, which CLAWS claimed would
show that lobbyists paid Lorimer 25
per cent of fund of $4,000 in fight
made by the "Fireproof Magazine" Of
Chicago for mail privileges. Keeley
said Clovis told him former Repre-
sentative Tawney of Minnesota, for
many years chairman Of the house
appropriations committee, was mix
ed up in the DEAL"
Mr.. Keeley told the CLAWS story in
response to questions from Senator
Lorimer's counsel. The witness tes-
titled that CLAWS said the books
were in the possession of the widow
of one of the lobbyists, that she had
tuberculosis and would sell them.
"Glavis said the books showed that
Congressman Tawney was mixed up
in this postoffice matter" said the
witness. "He said that an item in
the books showed that Lorimer had
something to do with a liquor case
Mr.. Keeley said he telegraphed
$3.50 to be paid CLAWS for the books
and that CLAWS acknowledged having
purchased them, but later sent word
he would like to withdraw from the
agreement and refund advances. Mr..
Keeley would not consent.
"Why did you want the books?'
asked Attorney ffanecy.
ITO turn over to this committee.
If they were useful evidence" replied
Kelley.
Mr.. Keeley said he became con.
vinced that he had purchased gold
brick, but something that had hap
pened since he came to Washington
in the last week had changed his
mind.

PRESIDENT MUST DECIDE
LEADER UNDERWOOD ANNoUNc-
Es REJECTION OF LA FOL-
LETTE MEASURE
RATES CUT ALMOST IN TWO
LEGISLATION EXPECTED TO RE
cEIvE EARLY APPROVAL OF
BOTH HOUSES

Washington, July 25.-The new
cotton revision bill submitted today
to the caucus of house democrats
from the ways and means committee
cuts from an equivalent ad valorem
rate of 1912 per cent, under the
Payne-Aldrich act to an average ad
valorem rate of 27.O6 per cent. Under
the Wilson bill of 1894, the last dem
ocratic tariff, the average ad valorem
rate was 1876. Under the proposed
rates the committee estimates that
imports of cotton goods for twelve
months at $39, 10000 against $685.
417,441 last year and that the duties
derived under the new act for year
would be $1O,599,OO against $13,673,-
sol. Democratic Leader Underwood
explained the cotton bill to the demo
cratic caucus this afternoon. "The
schedules" he said "are cut nearly
so per cent or practically in half and
we will push it through the house
with little debate"
A caucus of democratic senators
has been called for tonight to consid-
er the wool tariff revision bill in the
hope of harmonizing the differences
on that legislation. Whether the
democrats shall assist in passing the
La Toilette bill is still the bone of
contention.
AS the result of series of confer
ences held today the prediction was
freely made in the senate that the
upper house of congress on Thursday
would adopt the house wool bill.
This will put the wool issue squarely
up to President Taft. Democratic
Leader Underwood today served no
tice that the house would not accept
the La Toilette bill.
While President Taft in recent
speech denounced Schedule X of the
Payne-Aldrich law as 'indefensible,"
he also indicated that he would pre-
fer to have revision of the schedule
await the report of the tariff board
promised in December. The presi-
dent has not definitely indicated,
however, that he would use the veto
power.
The positive statement was made
this afternoon by senators processing
to know that at least five insurgent
republicans and one regular republl-
can would take the house measure II
they could not get the La Toilette
bill. This would insure a majority
for that measure.
Senator Poindexter predicted that
the house bill would not in the end be
accepted. He said he would vote Tor
the La Toilette measure as a scbsti-
tute, but in case of its failure he
would cast his ballot for the house
bill. He said Senators Clapp, Brown
and others felt as he did.

GOVERNORS DAY TOMORROW At
NATIONAL GUARD ENCAMPMENI

review of the troops will be an inter
esting and inspiring sight. Governor
Mills will have the pleasure of gazing
upon the largest and best drilled force
of New Mexico troops that the eyes
of any chief executive of this terri
tory have looked upon, for the pres
ent encampment is the largest and
most successful in the history Of the
New Mexico National Guard.
Strenuous Maneuver Today
In heavy marching order the First
Regiment of the New Mexico National
Guard this morning began the execu-
tion of the most strenuous maneuver
that has been attempted since the es-
tablishment of Camp Mills. The two
battalions under the command of their
majors, left the camp early this morn
ing for tramp of several miles over
the rough country in the vicinity of
Hot Springs. The soldiers of each
battalion carried their full equipment
and camped at noon. Camp was pitch
ed as though for the night, the men
putting up their campaign tents and
cooking a hasty meal.
The maneuvers were participated in
by opposing forces, the Reds. who
were commanded by Major Ludwig
William Ilfeld, and the Blues, under
the command of Major Arthur Bail
The Reds, having withstood the attack
of the Blues in their entrenchments
yesterday, determined to attempt to
escape with their supplies over the
road leading west from Hot Springs.
The Blues determined to give pursuit.
The resulting maneuver required
much marching and it was expected
the soldiers would not return to camp
before 2:30 or o'clock The maneu-
yer was expected to give the COM
officers and their men a
,hance to show their skill in military
actics. 1t was also in the nature of
IN endurance and marching test.
The manuever as outlined by First
Lieutenant F. S. Young and Adjutant
General A. S. Brookes was as follows:
