The Senate Caucus. and Later.

of the tobacco monopolies seventeen
senators supported him III caucus, ana
as ten senator's Were absent and the vote
against his proposition was only twenty

suit. He explains that he is not bolter-
He does not threaten to vote against the
tariff bill on the final roll call ii his prop
osition is not part OF IT, Apparently
his desire is 10 state his case in public
debate and have other senators both for
and against him state theirs. and then
rest upon the judgment thus declared be-
fore the country
This matter takes on the greater inter-

other propositions none too strong with
democratic senators. but likely to be in

not suffice for the democrats. If with

them. They will be obliged to express
themselves beyond mere votes recorded
at the behest OF the party caucus
An effort TO compose all differences IN
caucus is party usage grounded in good
sense. II Is well, when possible. to pre-
sent an unbroken front 10 the enemy
when the battle begins.
But il has sometimes happened that
stanch partisans have rebelled AT caucus
dictation- They would not be silenced
on points of value 10 their constituents.
or OF concern TO their individual convic-
tons They have insisted on a contro-
versy held and decision recorded in
the open, so that al might be advised
Of the real attitude of the contestants.
IL has been repeatedly stated since the
Underwood bill reached the Senate that
It's road there would be as rocky as the
famous road TO Dublin, that the full
power of the presidency would be neces-
sary to secure the passage OF even an
amended bill. The bill has been amended,
and we shall now see what we shall see.

The Amazing Story of David Lamar

more amazing story of deception.
fraud and duplicity was probably never
before told on the witness stand than
that related yesterday by man calling
himself David Lamar. who recounted to
the Senate lobby investigating commit
tee how he had endeavored by ways that
pass all honest understanding to obtain
for his friend Edward Lauterbach en-
plovlnent as counsel by certain large IN
terests in their dealings with Congress
The effrontery shown by this man. who
is known in Wall street as 1.-The wolf.
who Iaughingiy confesses to having had
numerous names, who gloats over his
temporarily successful tricks and frauds,
has no parallel. He impersonated other
people in telephone conversations. he
carried false stories of other mems inten-
tons back and forth and with an amaz-
ing brayado asserted that Introducing
resolutions in the House of Representa-
tiyes was 'as easy as taking candy from
a baby.
The most important fact in this connec-
ton is that there is no definite punish
ment for this sort of enterprise. This
man who calls himself Lamar can carry
his tales and give false names over the
telephone and the law has no terrors for
him. For this form of trickery is not yet
classified as punishable offense, and
thus the man who has the nerve TO work
these games can evade all penalties save
that of public condemnation and a loss
of reputation. But reputation is not an
asset for such as the wolf of Wall
street" Indeed, a reputation for trick
cry deception. cleverness and the like
is an asset. 1t is JUNCTION to his soul to
he brought now into the light as per
petrator of the tricks that have for some
time fooled and confused members of
Congress
This is a most interesting chapter in
the history of the American lobby that
is now being written through the dis
closures before the Senate investigating
committee. and doubtless before the end
is reached a tale will be unfolded that will
astound the public for the audacity of
those who have been engaged in schemes
shape the law to suit their own ends.
Perhaps some benefit may come from the
confessions of Lamar, whose usefulness as
a lobbyist such as it ever was, is of
course at an end. Assuredly one lesson
TO be learned from this mans frank
avowal is that henceforth public men
should be careful about accepting identi
ties over the telephone.

where to be seen. Investigation of
his tent showed that he had not made
fire in his stove that morning, and
this leads the men to believe that
he had not remained at the camp
Monday night. All of the effects
were intact, and it appeared that he
had taken nothing with him. The
men from the other camp were noti-
fled and both stated that they had
not seen Johnson that morning.

to find him AS the Bald mountain
section is thickly timbered, the task
of searching is not an easy one. 1t
is the opinion of those who know
that part of the woods that a man
can easily become lost there. 1t is
thought that if Johnson had gone
insane and drifted away from camp
that he could not possibly survive
longer than three days at the mos
