WAS STEPHENSON
 ELECTION LEGAL?
Senator Jones Introduces Resolution Questioning Validity of Senator
 StephensOn's Election

washington. March 22.-To gain a par liamentary advantage In the final dispo- sition of the Stephenson election case, Senator Jones today introduced reso- Iution declaring that Mir Stephenson was mot duly and legally elected to the Sen ate"
 This was offered as a substitute for the Heyburn. resolution. which the majority of the privileges and election committee, which declared that Senator Stephenson s election was valid. The advantage is that Senator Jones' substitute must be voted on before the committees resolu- ;tion.
 Either resolution requires only a ma jcrity vote. though resolution of expul- sion from the Senate will necessitate a two-thirds vote.
 The Senate will vote on the case on the legislative day of next Monday after speeches by Senators Borah, Reed and others.

 AGAINST SENATOR
Mississipian Accused of AL tering Enrolled Bill Pass
 ed by Legislature

Jackson, Miss, March 22-State Senator A. w. Bond. a prominent member of the state legislature from Wiggins county, was arrested here late today on a charge of altering an enrolled bill that had been passed by the legislature .authoriz- ing the creation of the new county of Stone, with the county seat at Wiggins. the home of the senator, in the southern part of the state.
 S. R. Mskisson, who is connected with an abstract title company here, also was placed under arrest. It Is charged that he made the alteraton under the direction of the senator. Both were released on bail of $500 each until the meeting of the grand jury in June.
 The effect of the alteration in the bill, it is claimed. would have been to annul a recent election in the district occupied by the new county, a majority favorins its creation.

BURNS DOES NOT
 THINK MUCH OF
 SOME LAWYERS

Columbus, O., March 22-Detective Will liam J. Burns was the central figure to- day at the trial of State Senator Isaac F. Huffman, accused of bribe taking. This Is one case of series. one having ended in three years sentence for Rodney Diegle. sergeant at arms of the senate, and another in conviction of State Sen ator Andrews, in whose case sentence has been deferred. Burns testimony was devoted chiefly to trying to clear attacks on the reputation of his employe. De- tective Smiley, from whom Huffman Is alleged to have taken a s200 bribe.
 Burns was asked if he had made the following statement before the Lorimer investigation committee in Washington.
 'I consider private detectives the big gest lot of backmailing thieves that ever escaped justice.
 ''I did. and I say so now" replied Burns fairly shouting and rising from his seat.
 You swore to 1t then; will you swear to it now?'
 'I will, but also added to that state ment that I sometimes included lawyers in the same class as I could hire certain of them to commit murder.''
