DANGER IN SOCIAL LOBBY.
ASSOCIATED Press Cablel

WASHINGTON, June 4.-That
President Wilson has Republican sup
port in the senate on his charges
against the lobbyists was demon,
strated in the senate yesterday when
Senator William S. Kenyon of Iowa
Republican, spoke against the prac
tice of outside interference in legis
lative matters pending before Con
gress.
While President Wilson's charges
that an active lobby is in existence
has perhaps not been supported, said
Senator Kenyon, it is without doubt
true that social lobby does exist ano
in this the Presidents protest has
been amply justified.
1t was pointed out by the senator
from Iowa that more harm can be done
through professions of friendship and
hospitality on the part of friends oil
certain interests than could be &C
complished by an army of profes
sional lobbyists, so called.

participate in coastwise trade through

1t has been openly charged that

The elimination of the clause

AGAINST FRISCO HEADS
Restitution Of $7,0oo,o 900 Profit, of
Yoakum and Associates
!, Il to Be Asked.

st! Louis, Dec, a.-Judge Sanborn, of
the United States Circuit Court, today
ordered the receivers to institute restitu-
tion suits against the Frisco officers and
directors to recover profits OF more than
"a oOO. 600 which 1t is alleged B. r.
Yoakum and associates have made by
unloading feeder lines" on the system.
An unnecessary burden of s4o,o0OO00 is
now carried by the Frisco as the result
of the manipulations Of the "otiiclal syn
dicates," 1t Is charged.
In directing the receivers to take steps
to recover these profits, Judge Sanborn
rejected the petition of w. w. Niles, Of
New York, to sue as an individual stock
holder, but he ordered that Niles attor-
news, John D. and Loomis johnson, act
as counsel for the receivers.
Niles had charged that Judge Henry s.
Priest. who has served as attorney for
the receivers, also acted for Yoakum and
other interests in bringing on the re-
was too much involved on both
sides and should be disqualified. Judge
Sanborn also disqualified Judge Walter
II. Evans, counsel for the Frisco, who
has been sitting on both sides of the
table" as counsel for the receivers.
Niles had charged that Receivers W.
C Nixon and W. B. Biddle were not the
proper persons to conduct the restitution
suits because of their affiliation with
Yoakum and the fact that only recently
they resigned as president and vice presi-
dent of the Frisco, respectively. Judge
Sanborn stipulated in his DEGREES that
James C. Lusk shall act as chairman
Of the receivers"
He Is to have charge Of the restitution
suits.
