permission to submit one more ques- ton to Judge Archibald as to whether he had altered the record of testimony in the Louisville and Nashville rate case before the commerce court. His correspondence with Attorney Helm Bruce in this case furnished the foun- datfon for one of the articles of i'm peachment.
 Question Not Submitted.
 Judge Archba1d's attorneys declared if the question was submitted they would require an opportunity to make further arguments. A secret session was at once ordered and at the end of more than an hour of debate it was announced that the senate declined to order the question submitted to Judge Archbald. Senator Reed then formally withdrew it.
 No Vote Before Monday.
 The senate will resume it's consid- eration of the case behind closed doors tomorrow. No vote upon any of the thirteen separate charges against Judge Archibald is expected until Monday. While the senate will con slider the case in secret, it will vote Tn the open. AS soon as the time for voting has been set the house will be notified; and the house managers and Judge Archbald's attorneys will have decision as to whether the accused jurist shall be removed from office
 Tho Possible Penalty.
 The full penalty that may be i'm posed by the senate includes not only removal from office but dIsbarnent of Judge Archibald from ever holding any position of public trust in the fl- ture
 Separate votes will have to be taken on each of the thirteen articles of i'm peachment
 Two thirds Vote Necessary to Convict.
 A two-thirds vote would be necessary to convict Judge Archibald upon any of the counts against him. Two new senators. J. N. HeiskelI of Arkansas and R. M. Johnston of Texas. who have not heard the arguments of the case, will not vote. and two vacancies exist, one from Illinois and one from Colorado. A successful thirds vote upon any single article of i'm peachment would be sufficient to bring about Judge ArchbaIds conviction and removal from office,

ENGINEER BLAMED
 FOR CORNING WRECK.
Had Been Drinking and Had Had
 Only Three Hours Sleep.

Albany, N. Y. Jan. 1O-The en- gineer had been drinking the night be- fore and had slept less than three hours. Hence the wreck on the DeE- aware, Lackawanna and Western railroad at Corning, N. Y, last Inde- pendence day, in which forty persons lost their lives and seventy-five oth- CTS were injured The public service commission so declared today after a painstaizIng investigation.
 William Schroeder, the engineer thus charged, was indicted for man slaughter by a Steuben county grand jury, but was never brought to trial, The country judge dismissed the in dictment upon motion of the dis trict attorney.
 The report says: The action of the engineer should be considered as much an offense against the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, of which he is a member as it is against the railway and the public"
 The commission approves the order issued by the railroad since the ac- cfdent forbidding employees to use intoxicants.

 On AdrianOpIe
HOLY CITY" CONTINUES AN oR-
 sTAcLE TO PEACE
THE TURKS oBDURATE
Are Evidently Hopeful of Saving It-- Allies as Determined That They WiiI cede it-CIinax Next Week.

London Jan. 10.-The pendulum of peace in the Balkans swings between the fall of Adrianople and action by the powers of Europe Advice, sug- Sestions, good offices, pressure and friendly offers-au that diplomatic terminology has been able to invent have been attempted by the powers to bring the conflicting parties to terms over Adrianople, but the reluctance of Turkey to cede the holy city, is only surpassed by the determination of the allies to win their point to have it included in the territory of Bulgaria.
 No Halfway Course.
 Several so-called intermediate courses for solving the problem, by neither entirely separating Adrfanople from Turkey nor entirely giving it to Bulgaria. have been refused by both sides. AS an indication of the stand the allies have taken in the premises one of the Bulgarian delegates said today, "Adrianople is the Alsace-Ior- ratne of our war;
 Roumania Now a Factor.
 Turkeys hopes that she may be able to save Adrianople undoubtedly have been revived by the threatening attitude of Roumania- In this atti- tude Roumania is believed to be backed by Austria as otherwise she would not urge her claim so energetically against Bulgaria in contrast with the pacific position she had assumed fortnight ago.
 Ambassadors Preserve Secrecy.
 The powers are awaiting the result of the representations to be made to the Constantinople government by their ambassadors in the Ottoman cap- ita1. Their note probably will be de- livered next Monday to the Turkish government
 The anbassadoria1 conference met at the foreign office today, but the only information given out concerning thA meeting ok important decision and had been ad- journed until Monday. The ambaasa- dors would not confirm the reports that a naval demonstration had been planned as a last resort to bring pres- sure to bear upon Turkey.
 Turkeys Latest Threat
 The threat of Turkey to withdraw her peace delegates early next week If the allies refuse a further com promise in their demands, was dis cussed at today's sitting of the am bassadors but was not considered d serious one. The delegates of the al- lies have replied to Turkey with a. counter threat that they win give all the arn1stfce now in effect in south eastern Europe if the Tnrlke leave the peace conference.
 French Dinner Fails of lss Mission.
 Considerable hopes had been enter tained that the dinner given last night sador to the delegates to the peace conference and at which the Turks and allies met for the first time on neutral ground, would furnish the CO., casion for friendly conversations which woud break the ice of the deadlock; but the delegates failed to unbend from strict fornality and the affair is d9- scribed as having been cold and stifH The Marquis IInperiali, the Italian aIn- bassadoF to Great Britain, will give s luncheon in honor of the Turks to- morrow.

as to whether he had authority to grant an application for Castro's re- lease on bail pending the determine tion by the immigration authorities of the Venezuelan's right to remain in this country.
 May Render Decision Today. Judge Holt said that he was disposed vfded he had authority to do so and requested counsel in the case to sub init briefs. He will probably render decision in the ease tomorrow. Cas- tro in the meantime was taken back from the federal building to Ellis Is- land. where he has been confined since his arrival in this country on Decem- Der 31.
 Court Dsciairs Authority.
 Judge Holt upheld the contention of District Attorney Wise that Castro's examination by the immigration au- thorittes had not been completed and that for that reason the court had no authority to interfere in the case. Castro's counsel. George Gordon Bat tie. held that the case had in fact been com pleted, on the ground that the i'm migration authorities had "extorted from him under duress' a promise to leave the country and that he had promised to go back against his wish es. MT. Battle read from an affidavit of Castro in which the Venezuelan set forth that he had refused to answer certain questions put to him by a spe- cial board of inquiry concerning the internal affairs of Venezuela and that he had been told that if he would promise to go back, inquiry into his affairs would be dropped.
 Denied Right to Private Conference.
 Mr. Battle declared that Castro had been denied the right to confer with counsel except in the presence of an immigration officer.
 No law in this country says that counsel shall not haze access to his client without a government officer Holt. Under these circumstances, a mans detention would certainly be il- legal
 District Attorney Wise however, pointed out that Castro had had the help of counsel in preparing his peti- ton for writ.
 Castro's Lawyer Satisfied.
 MT. Battle in commenting tonight upon the ruling of the court, declared that Castro had accomplished the ob- jects for which the writ was sued out"
 Judge Holt has distinctly ruled,' he said, that General Castro shall be entitled to consult freely with his counsel and that the immigration au- thortties must proceed promptly and in legal manner by a special board Of inquiry to determine whether any just cause exists for excluding him from this co1lntry"
