STEPHENSON EXONERATEO
Senate Committee Probing Elec.
ton Stands Eight to Five.

Washington. Fsb. l0.-By a vote OF to 5
the Senate Committee on Privileges and
Elections to-day approved the report OF the
subcommittee generating Senator Ste
phenson from charges Of corruption In con-
nection with his election.
Senators Clapp. Jones. Kenyon. Kern and
Lea voted in the negative and will present
a minority report TO the Senate. They took
the position that the expenditure of $4,000
in the Senatorial primary raised pre-
sumption OF wTongdOlng on the part OF Sem
ator Stephenson and that they failed 10
find I'm the evidence that such a prcsump-
ton had been removed.
Senator's Dillingham;, Gambte, Hepburn,
Sutherland. Johnston, Fletcher. Bradley
and Pomerene voted in favor OF Senator
Stephenson Senators Oliver and Paynter
were not present.
Senator Pomcrenc. OF ohio. submitted a
special report giving his Views as TO why
Senator Stephenson should reveive valid
title TO his seat. lie said there was 10 evil
dence before the committee from which II
could be found that any OF the f0Ii9} eX-
pended by Mr. Stephenson in connection
with the primary campaign was for corrupt
practices. Mr.. Pbmerene scathingly at
tackled the methods OF the Stephenson pri-
mary campaign, however, and contendcd
that some OF the money was possibly, or
even probably. spent corruptly."

Representative Martin Dies, Texas
Democrat. delivered a speech in the House
to-day which is. perhaps, the most scath-
ing arraignment OF the peerless leader
ever uttered by one Of his own party. The
name Of Mr.. Dies was among list Of thir-
teen "blacklisted" Democrats recently pub
llshed in THE Commoner," whom Mr.. Bry-
an charged with being unworthy because
they voted against the Cullop amendment
requiring the President TO make public the
names Of those who indorse candidates for
the bench.
Rising to a question Of personal priyi-

ARMY ORDERS AER0PLANES
Contracts Let for Five, Despite
Small Appropriation.

Washington. Feb. 1o-Undismayed by the
small appropriation allowed by the House
for carrying on aeronautics in the army
during 1913. the War Department to-day let
contracts for five war aeroplanes. These
contracts were let out Of the appropriation
allowed for this year. 1t will probably
take several months TO deliver the ma
chimes at the army aerodrome at College
Park, Md. and the army aeronautical
squad then will be back from Augusta, Ga
Brigadier General Allen, chief signal
officer, to-day said the War Department
soon would order several more aeroplanes
The signal corps is handicapped in its
aeronautical work by the lack Of officers
available for detail as aeronauts. BY the
time the FIVE new machines reach College
Park IL is expected enough officers will
have been detailed TO aeronautics TO handle
all army machines.

LIMITS PANAMA FREIGHT
Secretary of War Issues Order Il
Facilitate Finishing Canal.

Washington, Feb. 1o.--To avoid inter-
ference with construction of the Panama
Canal, Secretary Stimson issued an order
to-day which will restrict the amount OF
freight to be accepted for transportation
over the Panama Railroad The freight
rates will not be increased
Secretary stimson's action Is OF great i'm
rortance to the Pacific Coast, because It
means that instead of lower charges on
transcontinentai freight, higher ones may
prevail for time at least, because large
quantity Of the freight now handled on the
Panama Railroad will be thrown on the
transcontinental lines.
Within five days the present double track
line across the isthmus must be abandoned
and all trsfic OF not only commercial
freight. but material for the construction
OF the canal, must be carried over TOM
porary single track road
