lSiatufe charged WIN accepting DT1DeS
to vote for William Seymour Ed
wards. who was the most active of all
those who signed the charges against
Senators Watson and Chiffon.
Edwards PitiabIe Plight.
It is stated in the press that Mr..
Edwards caused the arrest Of these
men on charge OF bribery in order
to call attention to conditions existing
in Charleston, that he desired to call
attention to the use of money in be-
half of candidates for the senatorship.
In view of Mr. Edwards unsuccessful
effort to fasten bribery charge upon
Senators Watson aud Chiffon one
might well hesitate before accepting
as true his insinuation that other can
didates for senator are using money
in the purchase OF votes The mere
fact that Mr.. Edwards may have au-
thorized detectives to use money in
his behalf in plot to cause the ar
rest of certain supporters Of his in
the legislature does not prove that
any other candidate for senator is
guilty OF the same offense. So far as
information has reached Washington
the only charges of bribery in connec-
ton with the present session or the
last one are those which were unani-
mously declared by the United States
Senate to be without foundation in
connection with the election of Sen
ators Watson and Chiffon; the char
gcs that five members Of the legisla-
ture accepted money to vote for Viii
liam Seymour Edwards and those
against Mr. Edwards himself. 1t is
not quite understood, in Washington,
why Mr.. Edwards, il he wanted to
show that other candidates were i'm
properly influencing their members Of
the legislature should have caused
the arrest OF those men who were yot-
ing for himself instead OF those who
were supporting some other candi-
date. So far as can be learned here
the only use Of money in the present
contest for senator is that which Mr.
Edwards and his detectives have sup
piled to the effect that five men were
given money TO vote for him Just
what bearing this may have upon The
candidacy Of any other candidate for
senator is not understood here. There
may be something back OF il but so
FAR the incident has only resulted in
calling attention to the fact that Mr..
Edwards failed 20 prove his charges
against Senators Watson aud Chiffon
and is now charging certain members
of the Legislature with accepting
money TO vote for him for senator

Through his secretary he comrnuni- cated with various members of his cabinet. expressing indignation that army and navy officers should sing songs containing profane epithets to- ward the people which the United States are endeavoPing to assist to self government and civilization. It was made plain at the White House that while the general burlesque on the administration policies and thrusts a Secretary Bryan and others were deeply resented because they came from army and navy officers, the chief objection was to the spirit of hostility shown to Philippine inde- pendence as the problem is being worked out by the present admins tration.

JUAREZ Dec. 15.-While the rebel headquarters at Juarez were sending urgent messages today to General Villa, the rebel commander at Chi huahua, telling him that he is in curing the displeasure of foreign countries in his actions towards the Spaniards and other foreigners, and asking him to modify his attitude, Villa was said to be seriously con- cerned over the renewed federal ac- tiVities. Reports were received that the federals are advancing toward Chihuahua from TOrreOn, two hundred miles south. Villa has had to scat ter his forces in sending troops to surround the federaIs at Ojinaga on the border, while garrisoning Juarez and Chihuahua.
 This. it is said. will offer the fed erals an opportunity to strike Chi huahua, which was evacuated by them when Villa had all his forces to- gether. Federal troops are also re ported on their way from Monterey with d view of strengthening the position of the Huerta government in the interior.

Says Reports overdrawn.

HERMOSILLO, Dec. 15.-General Carranza has received no direct re- port from General Villa concerning the situation in Chihuahua, but he announced tonight that the infOrma- tion he has received from indirect sources led him to believe that the reports of the mistreatment of for eigners are overdraWn. It is said that General Villa merely expelled some of the Spanish merchants and priests who have been active in as sisting the Huerta government
 Much surprise was manifested at the stories told in Fl PasO by for eigners from Chihuahua. The gen eral impression seemed that the re- ports are exaggerated and that when the truth becomes known the matter will not be considered of interna- tionaI consequence. The full report from Villa which Carranza has asked for must come part of the way by courier and is not expected until to- morrow.

TAssoc1ATED PRESS D1sPArcHI

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15-Beside dis closing plans for an extensive investi gation into the economic features of the trust problem, Secretary Redfield of the department of commerce in his first annual report recommends legislation to presume that all restraints of trade are unreasonable and to place the bur den of establishing the reasonableness of the restraint upon the person alleg- ing it: to prohibit interlocking direc torates; to prohibit watering of stocks: and to prohibit corporations and persons from owning stocks in or controlling competing companies.
 Second only in interest to MT. Red fields views on the trust question, are his plans for developing trade of the United States abroad by a reorganiza ton trade of the United States abroad by a reorganization of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce.
 The trust question, and the work laid out for the bureau of corporations, which will range from an investigation of whether trusts are efficient to a study of the economic laws governing the fixing of retail prices, bears an inn portant relation to President Wilson's legislative program.
