Washington, Aug 2.G.--At the end
OF three days fight In which Senator
La Follette's threat of continued
fillbuster hung over the senate to
force consideration, that body adopted
today the Penrose resolution calling for
complete investigation of the cam
paign contribution of John ID. Arch

all financial transactions and corre-
spondence relating thereto, between
the two financiers and Colonel Roose-
welt. representatives In congress and
members Of the senate of the United
States"
The objection to the resolution died
out In the final hours of the session.
When the senate met at noon 1t had
been mutually agreed that no opposi-
ton would be made to Senator La
Follette's request for action. Based
on the charges by Senator Penrose
that the Standard Oil company had
contributed 100000 to the Roosevelt
fund in 1904, the resolution had been
amended by Senators Poindexter and
Pcnrose to cover. respectively. all the
political activities of Archbold and
Perkins.
