SENATOR KENYON INTRODUCES
RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING
DEEP PROBE.

Washington. Aug. 49, Investiga-
ton of the operations Of the inter-
state commerce law was asked in a
resolution today by Senator Kenyon.
Particular inquiry was urged into the
commissions progress in devising a
more practical and equitable scheme
of rate making: what proof the com
mission requires respecting cnalleng
ed rates; what burdens are imposed
upon the public in attempting to OBJ
tain relief; how common carriers may
discriminate between localities and
between commodities and class
freights; the adyisability Of congress
prescribing maximum and minimum
rates for low grade freight; what
evils are not reached by law what
new legislation Is needed and the ex-
tent to which wharves, water fronts
and terminal railroads may be CON
trolled.

NOT FIGHTING Police.

Santa re, N. Nj. Aug 49, Declar.
ING that the sheriffs' association is
not engaged III fight against the
mounted police and that the prize
fight dope sent out from Albuquer-
que was purely fictitious, a delega-
ton Of county officers called on the
governor here today to consult with
him about salary bill. The delega-
tion informed the governor that the
meeting ii Albuquerque was not a
session Of the sheriffs association but
was meeting Of county officials prln-
cipally county commissioners and
sheriffs although there were num-
Der Of county clerks, treasurers and
other officials present.
The question Of the interference
by Captain Fornoff OF the mounted
police during boxing contest at Al
buquerQue recently, the sheriffs here
assert, was never taken up. The sher-
ifs maintained that they had met for
the purpose Of getting salary bill
and not for the purpose Of looking for
more troubles than they already had.
Governor Mcdonald did not abso-
lutely decline to call special ses-
sion Of the legislature but he created
the impression, his visitors said, that
he was not favorable to such a plan.
The governor did not have any com
ment to make concerning the inter-
view with the officials.

NEWYORKERASKSRETRACTION
WISCONSIN soLoN REPLIES BY
MODIFYING HIS STATE
MENTs.
POSTOFFICE BILL is CAUSE
WHETHER OR NOT employees
OF DEPARTMENT SHOULD
STRIKE is CONTENTION.

Washington, Aug. 10. Senator
Root and Senator La Toilette got into
wordy clash over whether Mr.. La
Toilette favored legislation in the
postoffice appropriation bill which
would sanction a strike Of govern
ment employees. When Mr.. Root asked
the Wisconsin senator a direct ques-
ton to that effect, Mr. La Toilette
shouted that he refused to be trap
ped by the senator from New York"
Mr.. Root insisted that Mr.. La Fol
lette withdrew the remark, saying it
was offensive,
4 If the remark is offensive win
modify it, said La Toilette.
1T is offensive" returned Senator
Root Il have asked the senator the
direct question: What is his position
in regard to the right of postal en-
ployes to strike"
4 do not sanction Legislation that
would in any way authorize strikes
on the part Of the postal employees,
replied La Follette, and the squalI
blew over with several senators re-
marking that a false issue had been
raised. The clash came up over d pro
vision in the bill which would prevent
any organization Of postal employees
from joining with any other organiza-
ton.
Several senators contended it was
framed directly to prevent affilia-
ton with the American Federation Of
Labor. The attempt SO to amend the
bill was defeated 81 to 20.
Senator LaFollette refused to go
further with his charge that his mail
had been rifled by postoffice officials
who wanted to know about an investi-
cation Of the service the senator was
conducting. Officials Of the depart
ment characterized the charge as abs
surd. Mr.. La Follette's investigation
related to the right of the postal EN-
ployes to organize.

appel CALLS RIVAL
ATTORNEY A liar
DEFENSE BEGINS ARGUMENT
FOR DARRoW WITH lMPAS-
sICNATE SPEECH.

Los Angeles, Cal. Aug. 13.-Open-
ing argument for the defense was
begun today IN the trial of Clarence
S. Darrow, charged with jury bribery
in the Mcnamara dynamlting case.
Attorney Horace H. Appel declared
that the United States prosecution
officials in Los Angeles assisted the
county district attorney to introduce
Bert H. Franklin, the confessed brib-
er, as SPY in the camp of the de-
fense. Tears, epithets, obiurgations
and bitter excoriations punctuated
the impassioned address OF Appel to
the jury and at one climax he shook
his fist in the face Of Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Joseph Ford who
opened for the state yesterday, and
shouted liar and base falsifier.'
Appel asserted that the states case
against Darrow rested on the word Of
Franklin, who was not only detecs
tive but confessed criminal.
And the uncorroborated testimony
ii detectives ana criminals you
know. is worthless he added
Appel's attack on Ford was occa-
stoned by the latter's statement yes
terday that not only were criminal
tactics employed in the Mcnamara
defense, but that the present case was
reelSing with corruption
Appel told the jury that Franklin
was introduced to Darrow BY a letter
from United states District Attorney
A. /. Mccormick and that thereafter,
as spy, trapper, he drew money
from Darrow and deliberately began
an attempt to bribe jurors, not as a
servant Of the McNamaras or their
chief attorney now on trial. but in the
interest Of the county district attor-
ney.
Appel said he expected to conclude
his address this afternoon and that
Earl Rogers. Darrow's chief counsel
would follow him
