Senator Nelson grinned. You will
have to be careful then, Nelson
warned. Chairman Overman raped
for order.
Gotchaux declared he had seen
many senators, among them Senator
Williams, of the finance committee.
He told me-" he continued, that
neither he nor the majority of the
finance committee were in favor OF
free sugar but hat the majority OF
them would vote for it."
The witness named Senator Bris-
tow, Shively, Sherman and Stephen
son as among the senator's he had
called on. Most Of them, he said,
were sympathetic.
He created a laugh when he re-

But he is not a practical sugar
man." he added. although he col
lected 5000 in Louisiana to help

remorseful enough to make an ardent
pleader."
Dickinson also declared that SEN
ator Shively had told him that in
dividually the finance committee was
against free sugar, but hat the ma
jority would vote for 1t as it was an
administration measure. GotchauX

The subject taken up was alleged in.
reference with postal facilities.
Sharp clashes occurred during tbs
evening between Attorney e. w
Knight, for the operators, and Sena-
tor Kenyon, of the COMMITTEES. and
between Attorney General Lilly and
Senator MARITIME.
Senator Watson had suggested that
as the committee had to return TO
Washington soon the remainder of
the investigation should he held at
the national capital. and that was
agreed To. Mr.. knight explained at
length tho difficulty of preparing the
operators case at the short notice
they had. This aroused Senator Ken
