GUARDSMEN ANSWER,
MAI. TAYLOR'S DENIAL
Point Out that One Reason Given for
Delay in Payments Is that Rolls
Went to Louisville.
MANY ARE IN NEED OF MONEY

In reply to a denial by Paymaster
Boyd Taylor that delay in paying SAL
aries to National Guardsmen had been
caused by the fact that Brig. Gen. Har-
ries, commander, lis a resident OF
Louisville, KY, members OF the guard
last night said that of four reasons
advanced officially for the delay, one
was that the pay rolls were sent to
Louisville, as was admitted by Col
Charles II. Ourand, acting comma nder.
While Mai. Taylor said that Gen.
Harries had nothing to do with the
delay, he did not attempt to deny that
the pay rolls were sent TO Louisville,
or that the time consumed in sending
the rolls through the malls could have
been saved had Gen. Harries been in
Washington.
Some Of the members OF the guard
charge that while they had been told
to wait for their money, stan officers,
most Of whom are older men and do not
particularly need the money. were paid
on the last day of camp.
The guardsmen have not received Off
cial notice that they will be paid tenor
row. Unless Mai. Taylor mailed notices
last night, many of the guardsmen will
not know when they are TO be paid.
More than 200 guardsmen were at the
armory last night. Most OF them had
gone there in hope that they would re-
ceive their pay. They said that they
needed the money so badly that they had
visited the armory every night. One
guardsman named three men in Company
A. Second Regiment, and four men IN
Company E. Second Regiment, who had
lost their positions because they attended
the camp.

CONDUCT OF SOUTHERN
JURIST TO BE PROBED
Chairman Clayton Instructed to Pre-
sent Resolution Authorizing
Such Action.

Inquiry into the conduct OF Judge
Emery Speer. of the Southern District
OF Georgia, is assured as a result OF 40
ton taken yesterday by the House Com
mittee on the Judiciary.
The committee instructed Chairman
Clayton to present a resolution to the
House authorizing the committee to
probe charges involving Judge Speer sub
mitted by the Attorney General. These
charges, which are said to be OF a grave
character, were made the subject of in
vestigation by officials OF the Depart
ment OF Justice.
The results were submitted to the
committee in the form of a report The
committee has had the matter under
reached the conclusion that the state of
affairs embodied in the departments re-
port warranted further inquiry. In ac-
cordance with custom, the House will
pass the Clayton resolution.
This has been done in a number of
cases where judges and other Federal
authorities have been under fire. 1t is
the understanding that the committee
has gone SO far as to determine just
when II will be convenient for Judge
Speer to appear in Washington with
counsel. According to statements made
yesterday, Judge Speer indicated that IL
the committee embarked on an investi-
cation he would prefer that it be put
over until fall.
It is understood that the Investigation
will be begun in the fall IL Congress re-
mains in session; otherwise 1t will not
be started until next winter. The COM
mittee plans to hold its hearings in pub
lie, as was done in the preliminary in
vestigation of Judge Robert W. Arch
bald.

DISTRICT HEADS Held
TOBE in CONSPIRACY
Home Rulers Tell of Plan Of Com
missioners and Solons Against
Tax System.
TO PROBE OYSTERS ELIGIBILITY

The existence of an alleged conspiracy
between the civil Commissioners, the
chairman OF the House District Commit
tee and Representative Henry George,
ir,. of New York, for the ultimate dis
rUptiOn of the half-and-half financial
system of the District, by means of pack
ing the local board of assessors, was
Proclaimed by members of the Home
Rule Committee at a meeting last night
at the New Ebbitt.
Col. Charles c. Lancaster delivered a
spirited speech in denunciation Of the
alleged scheme, and other members OF
the organization supported his asser-
tons.
AT present the total assessments
amount to approximately $780, OO0," said
Col. Lancaster. 1T is the purpose OF the
parties to this conspiracy to increase
the assessments to about $1O0O0,O 900, thus
making the District revenues sufficiently
large to pay the expenses incident to con-
Quoting the local government. If the
District raised an amount sufficient to
pay all its expenses, Congress would find
a ready excuse to discontinue paying her
share of this annual burden"
The question of the eligibility Of Ed
ward W. Oyster, recently appointed as
sistant assessor and successor to Sam
uel 7. kalbfus, was discussed. A COM
mittee of five was appointed to investi-
gate the record of the appointee.
The committee is composed OF W. J.
Frizzell. DR.. J. K. Gleeson, ]. W. Stag
gers, W. l. Wilkerson, and James L.
Skidmore. 1t has been pointed out that
Mr.. Oyster voted in Pennsylvania last
fall, thus removing his bona fide resi-
dence from the District to the Keystone
State.
Announcement was made that W. J.
FriZzen, ore of the leading members,
would file quit in his own name in the
District Supreme Court instituting quo
warranto proceedings to test the elIgi-
bility OF Oliver P. Newman as District
Commissioner.
The following were elected members of
the home rule committee last night: T.
NJ. Neale, w. r. England, William
BraUnd, and James B. Norman.

drastic. He said that he was in favor of
legislation that would require the sals Of
the stock of every combination adjudged
to be a monopoly by the decree of a
court by putting the concern in the hands
of a receiver and selling its stock at re-
ceiver's sale. In addition to that, the
Senator from Iowa proposed that per-
sonaI defendants in such a suit should be
imprisoned.
Favored by Several.
Senator o'Gorman declared that the
Kenyon amendment was important, and
several Democrats intimated that they
were in favor of II, and finally, at the
suggestion Of Chairman Simmons, with
the consent Of Senator Kenyon, 1t was
referred to the Committee on Finance,
and it is likely that it will be reported
back to the Senate in some form.
Senator Lodge, in discussing the print
paper and wood pulp paragraph, insisted
that the retaliatory provisions iaptie

thought the committee had narrowed the
matter too much by applying the lCty

were of mechanically ground wood pulp.

Several speeches were interjected into
the proceedings. Senator Clark Of

pressed regret that the Senate could not

connection with present tariff legislation
He condemned the Democrats for their
adherence to the caucus rule.
Textile Mills Discussed.
Senator Smith of South Carolina made
an attack on the textile mills and read
reports showing the condition of the en-
p.oyeS, and thereby invited one of the
liyeliest coi!oquies of the day., Senator
Lippitt of Rhode Island Tetorted that the
textile mills of New England paid their
empioyeS lnuch higher wages than are
paid in the mills of South Carolina and
Georgia, and that the employees in the
New England mills were protected by
more humane laws, such as the regula-
tion OF female and child labor, than sur
round the employees in the Southern mills.
IN the course of the debate, Senator
Smith referred to the situation at Law

OF Arizona touched on the same subject.
