Especial Cable to The Times Dispatch
London, March 4.--Evidence that in
nuence has been exerted in high quar-
tiers to. keep Mrs. CORVALLIS Vests
restitution suit from the knowledge
of the public is afforded by the scanty
references in the morning papers. For
instance: the Morning Post. generally
regarded as the official chronicler OF
such actions, contains no reference to

an endeavor has been made in Mrs
Vests behalf to have tho action heard
in camera. but Sir Samuel Evans would
not accede to the request although he
did everything else possible to pro-
mote secrecy.
There is n good deal Of talk in legal
circles about the hushing up of the
case, many calling the proceeding
scandalous. Sir Samuel Evans was ap-

REPUBLICANS TO HIT BACK
Senators to Retaliate for Dem
ocratic Hold Up.

Washington. April IA conference Of
Republican Senators has been called FOR
tomorrow morning To consider plans for
retaliating OH the Democrats for holding
ID more than twelve hundred Republican
nominations IN the Last few months Of the
Taft administration. Senator Townsend T.
leading the movement, and Senators
Root Burton. Jones, Kenyon. Lppitt and
Colt signed the call for the conference.
Indications tonight were that. differ
cnces OF opinion were likely TO develop to-
,norrow. Senators who signed tho call
take the position that President TAFT
made these nominations in good faith
without regard TO political eXiGoncies. and
they should have been confirmed. Senator
Townsend is willing 10 keep up the
tattle until the Democrats concede they
were mistaken and consent To confirm
the Taft nominations where no good rea-
son for Withholding approval IS shown.
Some Senator'S predicted tonight that
President Wilson would not be greatly
displeased IL Taft nominations were con-
flrmod where the nominees qualifications
were shown TO he sufficient. Some OF the
Republican leaders however, are likely
to oppose the plan to fight the Wilson
nominations They see little TO be gained
by IT, and think they will have enough to
do in other ways In combating Demo
cratic policies.

HEDGES ON OWN DICTA
Exemption Of Unions and Farm
ers from Anti Trust Law Re-
mains In Sundry Civil Bill.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington. April if.-Some OF tho Pres
ident's friends In Congress arc becoming
perturbcd over his apparent inclination to
shift his position with respect to the
paragraph in the sundry civil bill aimed
at cXcmptihG farmers associations and
labor unions from prosecution under the
antitrust law.
The bill. introduced in the House to-day
by Representative Fitzgerald contains the
paragraph which President Taft charac-
terized as class legislation Of the most
vicious sort" As NJ. Fitzgerald and Sem
ator Martin. of the Senate Appropriations
Committee conferred with President VIII
son before the bill was introduced IL is
assumed that the paragraph in contro-
versy was retained with his approval
There is little doubt that both houses will
pass the bill unchanged
In view Of the President frankly stated
objection &c the practice Of carrying leg
isgtive riders IN appropriation bills, cX-
pressed shortly after his inauguration, his
friends fear that he Will lay himself open
TO the charge Of hedging on the sundry
civil bill item to avoid the wrath Of the
farmer and labor vote. The President re-
ferred this question to the Attorney Cen
cral for an opinion. and said to-day that
he had not reached decision himself.
The course mapped out by the heads OF
the appropriation committees Of the TWO
houses suggests, however. that the Prcsi-
dent has expressed no pointed objection 10
the antitrust law rider. TIE indications
are that IT is the purpose Of the Demo-
Gratis i'm Congress to resort TO the excuse
that the riucr j. unimpCrtant, that IL is
not permanent legislation and ihat it Will
not tie the hands of the Department Of
Justice in prosecuting suits against farm
crs associations and labor unions, mas
much as the prohibition applies only 10

vided by the one item If the bill is
changed in this one particular the chair
men of the two committees insist II VIII

its passage indefinitely delayed.
IL il is the purpose OF the adminstla-
ton to regard the antitrust rider a In

torney General 20 exercise some ingenuity
in proving that such is the case. There
is pending i'm Chicago a suit against the

this is settled out Of court or disposed oi
