kenyon-sheppard Measure Ex:
pected to Pass in Senate
on February 10.

Opponents of the kenyon-Sheppard
liquor bill. which has been the object
of SO much contention in House and
Senate, probably are beaten in their at
tempts to prevent passage of the meas
ure. The friends Of the bill believe they
are going to force the bill through and
that they are going to do 1t this ses-
sion in spite of the fact the House
leaders have passed out the word to
shut Off general legislation for this ses-
sion.
Canvass of the Senate shows the bill
will pass easily when the vote il
taken February 10. Senators who have
been trying to block a vote are stand
ing aside and getting ready to support
1t. On the other hand. the House
Judiciary Committee. Of which Con-
gressman Clayton of Alabama is the
head, is preparing to report out the bill.
Mr.. Clayton long has opposed the bill,
but he has decided to get out Of the
way and let 1t be reported out.
liquor interests who have been fighting
the bill are discouraged. They are try
ing to stem the tide to some extent.
Efforts are being made to get the bill
modified in the House committee.
Through strategy the enemies OF the
bill may defeat 1t for this session. but
even II they do there is little question
it will be put through In the next Con-
gress.
One thing operating to force passage
Of the bill this session is that the
friends of Wilson do not desire him to
be embarrassed by this liquor question

WASHINGTON TIMES BUREAU.
ALEXANDRIA. VA, JAN. %

As result of the failure of the
Virginia Safe Deposit and Trust Cor
poration Of Alexandria two years ago,
the supreme court of Virginia is en-
gagged today in hearing the appeal of
R. Lee Camden against the receivers
Of the trust company, which presents
many interesting features to lawyers
and bankers. Samuel G. Brent, COM
monwealth attorney of Alexandria, is
representing the receivers, while a
number of lawyers from different Sec
tions of the State are appearing in the
interest of Camden.
The trust company closed it's doors
suddenly on December %, 1910, ard as
soon as the receivers took charge they
notified the cashiers of the nine branch
es located in various sections of the
State that the corporation had been
placed in their charge. At Lovingston,
Va, one of the principal branch offices,
the telegram was held up while some
one connected with the telegraph office
drew out his deposit in the bank. IN
formation leaked out to other persons
through the same source, and E. L.
Kidd, who is clerk of the courts. pre-
sented check to Camden, who was
cashier of the bank, for the amount of
his wife's deposit, amounting to sew
eral thousand dollars, which Camden
paid.
When the receivers found out that
the money had been paid out after the
affairs Of the institution were in their
hands they placed the matter in the
courts, and after several months Kidd
and Camden were ordered by Judge L.
c. Barley, Of Alexanria, to return the
money or be liable to the court for
punishment for contempt. They ap-
pealed, and several months ago the
supreme court handed down a decision
in favor Of Kidd, holding that he could
not be held in contempt and punished
for his failure to return the money.
The personal tax and income assess
ment which created so many worries to
Alexandria people last year. and which
was only settled a few weeks ago, Is
again up for consideration. Charles H.

1t was said that the ambassadors

powers that caused the Sultan to bow
