tee to investigate the Lorimer
case is one OF the principal mat
ters on the Senate programme to-
day. Under Senate rules this
subcommittee must be regularly
elected TO carry on the investige-
tion- The committee includes
Senators Dillingham;, Gamble,
Jones, and Kenyon, Republicans,
and Johnson, Fletcher, Kern, and
Lea. Democrats.
The Finance Committee, whIIh
was scheduled to end its rediproc-

finish. but will wind up to-day,
with Secretary of State Knox as
star witness. Mr.. Knox Will tell
the committee that the treaty Is
Identical with the bill and other
wise o. X. Tomorrow the com
mittee will take up it's report IN
executive session. The report is
expected to be without recon-
mendation.
1t Is probable that Senator
Pomerene will address the Senate
to-day on hts resolution directing
the Attorney General to crini-
nally prosecute the Standard on
and tobacco trust defendants. He
was to have done so yesterday,
but the Senate~adjourned without

Another effort may be made to-
day TO break the deadlock over
the election OF a president pro

been taken yesterday.
The House meets to-day after
an adjournment over from last
week. The Underwood wool bill,
reducing the Payne-Aldrich du-
ties on Schedule K. will be had
before the House by the Demo-

The Committee on Rules will
report the hearings on Represen-
tative Berger's resolution TO In

Judiciary Committee. That COM

VIII Instruct Departments to Join
in Sugar Trust Inquiry.
Representative Hardwick, of Georgia,
called at the White House yesterday to
discuss with President Taft the investiga-
ton into the sugar trust which he will
commence next week.
He asked the President to aid him In
having the executive departments give

should not give all the aid in their
power. He will issue instructions to them

Ting OF claims arising from the Boxer
troubles, Mr.. Foster secured the ap-
proval Of the State Department to the
proceeding. Moreover, when, the money
was paid TO the claimants by the de-
partmept, proper bond was not exacted.
1t was the failure 10 demand this bond
that resulted in the court action IN New
YORK by which other heirs of Gen.
Ward attempted 20 get some of the
money paid Mrs. Amidon.
Put Life Into the Claim.
After Investigation had shown that
Gen" Townsend had failed to ac-
count to the Chinese government for
many thousands of dollars advanced him,
the Department Of State, with Secretary
Bayard at the head, refused to consider
diplomatic advances by this government
to collect the claim. The affair was forty
years old and dead so far as the State
Department was concerned until Mr.. Fos-
ter undertook, as he expressed it, ito put
some life into it,
The letter Mr.. Hay was finally In
duced to send Mr.. Conger. was perfume
tory In tone, and stated: This matter
has received consideration from several
of your predecessors to whose dispatches
and records you are referred
These dispatches and records contained
reports against the claim by Mr.. DENLY,
former Minister to China, and former
Secretary OF State Bayard, who practi-
cally forbade the legation to press the
claim.
Mr.. Conger, under date Of November
g. 1902, wrote a personal and confidential
letter TO Mr.. Foster, stating that be had
had to stretch his instructions "a good
deaIs to bring the matter to a success
full issue and at the same time telling Mr..
Foster that he would advise that It be
mot given out too publicly that payment
was contemplated out Of the Boxer in
demnity. AT the same time there Is on
record a letter from Mr.. Conger to Sec
Tetary Hay of November 3, 1902, wherein
the Minister reports on the progress of
the case and adds: VIII kindly inform
Hon. John w. Foster"
MIR. PenheId's Denial. -
Mr. Fosters reference in his testi-
monys to having won Judge Penheld.
former solicitor Of the State Depart
ment, over to sanctioning the presenta-
ton OF the claim against the Chinese
government called forth a vigorous
denial yesterday by Walter s. Penheld.
his son, prominent local attorney.
Ny father told me he had never
been won oyer TO believing that the
claim should have been presented
said Mr.. Penheld, when Mr.. Fosters
testimony was brought to his atten-
ton yesterday. "He was opposed to
the presentation. and IN no way instru-
mental In getting 1t brought to the
attention of the government of China
by Mr.. Hay"
VIII Make Thorough Investigation.
Representative Hamlin, beyond promis-
ing thorough investigation Of the mat
ter and stating that. on the face Of IT.
there appeared plenty of room for In
vestigation. refused to discuss the story
at length.
This is apparently Just the kind Of
the committee is trying to un-
cover and prevent In the future, he said
This is an effort Of some people to
levy blackmail on me" was Mr.. Fosters
comment. They have been engaged 10
It for some time. Now they are trying
to do It through the newspapers. I do
not propose to say anything at this time.

markets, is not nearly up to the av.

and Pennsylvania have many more

they have never before come in con
