situation in the senate today was
sQuelched by emphatic disapproval
from Republicans and Democrats who
Joined in declaring that the senate
should not by discussion lend weight
to any efforts to intensity feeling in
Mexico.
After Senator Smith (Mich.) had
opened the subject by declaring that
the constitutionalist junta here had
the ear of the state department and
was influential in bringing about the
resignation of Ambassador Wilson,
Senator Williams (Miss.) replied with
the charge that there was an or
ganized and syndicated effort to
bring about war with Mexico. He de-
clared there was money behind it,;
and not all Mexican money"
senators must hold themselves in
check" said Senator Williams LAS we
read many of the metropolitan papers,
there Is a sameness of statement, in
certain OF them that shows syndi-
Gated money effort behind it. 1t is
time we should pause. I don't feel
even brave when talking about war
with Mexico, a country disrupted,
broken and torn with dissension. This
question is too important to be dis
cussed mere for any personal adVan-
tages; for any small advantage to any
person"
Senator Smith, after announcing he
would make to the senate Monday a
IepOfC IrOn the special cOmmltIee,
which worked along the Mexican Dor
der last year. yielded to expressions of
disapproval and agreed to submit the
report first to the foreign relations
committee.
Senator'S Crawford and Kenyon join
ed Democrats in declaring the senate
should not by it's discussion lend
weight to the efforts to intensity the
NJ exican feeling.
Senator Crawford expressed the
highest confidence in President Will
son and the state department, saying
they were entitled to the senate's
united, sympathetic, loyal and com
plete support.
Il regret to observe any disposition
or evidence of a desire to hinder or
make more difficult the work of the
foreign relations committee" he said.
The administration may commit err
ror, or probably it will. 1t will have
to be subjected to criticism; that is
inevitable. But members of the sem
ate. body which must participate in
the settlement of international ques-
tons, have a duty that should compel
them to rise above partisan criticism"
Senator Williams declared Senator
CrawfCrd's "cool, dispassionate state
nent'' would be "applauded by all
America"

New York, Aug. 9.-Bradstreets says:
While irregularity still pervades trade,

SUBPOENA PROMINENT MEN.
Atchison Joint Raid Will Embarrass
Many Merchants.

Atchison. Kan, Aug. 9.-The joint
raid in Atchison promises to be more
sensational than people imagined. H.
r. Howard, a spotter, who came here
from Topeka two weeks ago, to secure
evidence for Attorney General John
Dawson, gave that official the names
of hundreds of the best known men in
Atchison, whom ne saw in joints, and
W. P. Montgomery, assistant attorney
general, said that the list included
three of the most prominent men in
Atchison" The list also includes the
names of a mum Der of policemen.
Howard declared that he spent con-
siderable time in joints with members
of the police force, and he specified
the places and the exact time. He
also declared that he spent whole
night in a gambling place, operated by
George Brown.
a county official says that the evil
dence against the men arrested is so
conclusive that any of them would be
foolish to go into court and contest it.
