Tonehorns Assert Right to Title OF
Southern Champions.

Austin, Tex, Nov. 19.-By over
whelming the Kansas Aggies by 4S
to O on Clark field yesterday. the Uni
versity of Texas asserted its right to
the championship of the southwest.
The Longhorns found Kansas unex-
pectedly strong at some crlticai
sta yes. however, and in the last quar-
ter were held for downs twice within
the 2O-yard line, and once within five
wards of the goal line. Driving runs
of Paul Simmons, Daniels and Brown
proved too much for the Aggies' de-
Tense. although Texas made rev con-
sistent gains through the line. Ag-
new and Haucke played a good game
for Kansas, while Marble and Loomis
were almost impregnable on the de-
fensive. Neither team could work the
forward pass successfully, owing to
the condition of the field. A driving

STATE INDICTS THEM FOR A5AN. DOMINIC CHILDREN IN FLOP
 ING WITH GIRLS.
HARRINGTON IS SUSPENDED
Federal Investigator Ordered to Ex- plain Demand That Attorney General McReynolds
 Be Ousted.

Sacramento, Cal, June 27-Bench warrants, issued in the superior court of this county for the arrest of Maury l. Diggs and Drew Caminetti, will be served immediately. They are based on indictments found by the county grand jury and charge abandonment of their children when the men eloped to Reno with two young women of this city.
 The sheriff and his deputies had been unable to find Car1inetti up to late last night. Diggs is understood to be with his parents in Berkeley.
 Caminetti was seen in hotel in this city shortly before the issuance of the warrants. Then he disappeared.
 Both men are already under bail on the same charges brought by informal ton in justice court in this county. The indictments hasten the putting of these state cases on the criminal court calendar and obviate the pre- nminary trial in the justice court, which has been continued from time to time pending the hearing on the Mann act charges in the federal court at San Francisco.
 Washington, June z7.-Clayton Her. rington, special agent of the depart ment of justice at San Francisco, who sent President Wilson a telegram Sun day night, appealing for the removal from office of Attorney-General Me Reynolds. his official superior, be- cause of the circumstances of the resignation of United States Attorney McNab, has been suspended without pay by A. Bruce Bielaski, chief of the bureau of investigation of the depart ment of justice.
 This action, it is said, is to give Herrington an opportunity to explain his telegram. If the explanation is not satisfactory, officials declare, the special agent probably will be sum- marily dealt with.
 Harrington is a former judge and is in charge of the federal govern ment's bureau of investigation at San Francisco He helped District Attor- ney McNab prepare the DiggsCami- netti cases, the postponement of the trial of which resulted in McNab's resignation and his sensational charges against the attorney-general.
 President Wilson has recommended to Attorney-General McReynolds the names of Francis J. Heney, Matt J. Sullivan, Thomas Hayden and others for appointment as special prosecu- tors in the Caminetti-Diggs and the Western Fuel company coal customs cases. No final selections were made.

DEMOCRATIC SENATE CAUCUS REACHES AGREEMENT AFTER
 TWO DAYS FIGHT.
AMENDMENTS ARE DEFEATED
Free Sugar in Three Years and Free Wool Opposed by Only Six Members-Victory for
 President Wilson.

Washington, June 27.-Free sugar in 1916 and free raw wool are now established in the tariff revision Iill, having been approved by the Demo- cratic caucus of the senate after a two days fight.
 The sugar schedule, as reported by the majority members of the finance committee and practically as it passed the house, was approved by a vote of 40 to 6.
 Free raw wool as submitted by the majority, and just as it passed the house, swept the senate caucus by a vote of 41 to 6.
 This ratification of President Will sons tariff policy, he having insisted upon the wool and sugar propositions before the ways and means commit tee in the beginning, came after long series of developments since the tariff bill passed the house, in which the president has been an active parti :i- pant.
 When the fight of the anti-free sugar
  ting hot, the president issued a public statement declaring that any sugges- tion of compromise on his wool and sugar schedule ideas was absolutely out of the question, and later he stirred all administration leaders to action when he made his charge about the existence in Washington of an "insidious lobby" investigation of which has brought results regarded as favorable to the tariff bill.
 The six Democratic senators who voted against free sugar on the final vote approving the schedule were Hitchcock of Nebraska, Newlands of Nevada, Ransdell and Thornton of Louisiana, Shatroth of Colorado and Walsh of Montana.
 The six who opposed free raw wool to the end were Chamberlain of Ore gon, Newlands. kansdell and Thorn ton, Shafroth and Walsh.
 No attempt was made in the caucus to bind the members to the action of the caucus. The question will come up when the entire bill has been passed upon. Administration leaders said they believed only the two Lou isiana senators would ask to be re- leased from the caucus pledge if one is submitted. The general opinion is that a binding resolution will be of fered.
 Amendments eliminating free sugar and substituting a duty of approxi- mately F cent a pound on refined sugar, to retain the Underwood rate for three years, reduce it 10 per cent in 1916 and 25 per cent each succeed ing year until it reached the free provision and maintain the Under wood rates indefinitely, were voted down. The highest vote for any amendment was 10.
 An amendment to the wool sched- ule, proposing duty of 15 per cent ad valorem on first-elass wools, with wools of the second and third class, such as carpet and clothing wool, free, was defeated, 39 to '.
 The caucus ratified the committee amendment placing hair of the angora goat on the free list.
 A dispute arose over the committee amendment putting a countervailing duty on wheat and four. Some Demo crats asserted, following adjournment, that the countervailing duty would be stricken off, leaving wheat and flour on the unrestricted free list on . parity with cattle and meats.

Washington, June 27.-Robert S. Lovett, chairman of the board of di- rectors of the Union Pacific Railroad company, told the senate lobby inves- tigating committee that a long-contin- ued and determined effort had been made to have Edward Lauterbach, a New York lawyer, retained by his company ito grease the wheels" in Washington and prevent unpleasant agitation in congress against the dis solution plan of the Union Pacific Southern Pacific systems, ordered by the supreme court and now before the department of justice.
 Judge Lovett made no charge that any corrupt methods had been used, but said someone purporting to be over the telephone had urged the re- tention of the New Yorker, and had suggested the likelihood of difficulty in congress which might be averted if he was counsel.
 Name of Congressman Used.
 A similar telephone conversation had occurred, he said, between man also representing himself as Riordan, and Maxwell Evarts, counsel for the Southern Pacific.
 Otto H. Kuhn of Kuhn, Loeb & Co.,, a New York banking house interested in Union Pacific, the witness said, had had several conversations with Lauterbach personally, in which the lawyer had referred to what might be expected from the radical element" in congress in relation to the dissolu- tion plans of the two roads.

Senator Douglas signalized his en-

with the president Of the United
States, James buchanan. The reasons
for this break were Of a nature now
paralleled by the events encircling
President Wilson and the senate. DOUG
las demanded the distribution Of public
offices in support Of his policies. Pres
ident Buchanan differed from Douglas
and permitted the patronage to be US
ed against Douglas.
President Wilson presents the oppo-
site attitude He puts the public good
above the public office and declines
either to give out office to senators as
compensation for their support or to-
penalize these who oppose him by de-
nying them public patronage. Buehan-
an went to defeat in trying 10 reta-
late on senators who opposed his
policies and went to political dis
