Washington, June 3.--According to

WILSON WILL NOT APPEAR
President Calls In Supporters and
offers to Give What Information
He Has to Show That Money Is
Being Spent.

Washington, June 4--The United
States senate Monday began its ON
ciaI hunt for the 'insidious lobby
which President Wilson charged exist
ed to modify the tariff bill The in
quiry was carried on by a special com
mittee after the leaders of the under
taking hal held final conference with
President Wilson.
Sixteen senator's were examined and
not one of them knew anything Of tbs
existence OF the lobby referred to by
the president Not one OF them knew
anything of money being used by any,
body. Everyone declared that no one
had approached him improperly and
10 a man they defended the right OF
citizens to come to Washington to
confer with members Of congress over
legislation that was vital to their bust
ness and industries
One senator said: THE president
will not be able to make good" He re-
ceiyed his hardest jolts before the
committee from members Of his own
party, when Senators Overman and
Walsh, Democrats, began to ask Ques-
tons that seemed to indicate their
lack of faith in the charges that had
been preferred.
A total disagreement with the views
expressed by the president was held
by Senator Clark of Arkansas, presi-
dent pro tenn OF the senate. and by
Senator Chamberlain of Oregon.
1t was given out at the White House
that President Wilson had taken per

mittee would operate under his direc-
lions. Senator Oyerman and Sena-
tor Reed were summoned to the White

Democrat, who will vote against free
wool and free sugar and member Of
the committee, was ignored The
president submitted to these two sena-
tors such information as he had and
urged them to do all within their pow
er to enable him to make good
The president has let 1t be under
stood that he will not appear before
the committee. On his behalf Sen,
ator Reed will conduct the cross ex-
animation Of all witnesses.
It was explained that in his original
statement the president was careful to
make 1t clear that he did not charge
the existence Of a corrupt lobby or
that corrupt methods were being used
Also it was said for him that he was
not rejecting upon any senator, but
was stating what he believes is the
fact, that an insidious lobby is at work
in Washington

The enthusiasm with which the

campaign for betterment of the con
ditions Of Atlanta's public schools
promises to bring immediate Results.
Mothers all over the city have signi-
fled their desire to cooperate with

started work on a plan to redistrict
the city in an effort to relieve the
overcrowded schools.
1t is likely that the movement will
result in an early vote on a special

NJ. Slaton and other leading expo
nents Of better schools propaganda
have been urging this tax for mum
Der of years. With the active CO.

it is now possible to. call an imme-
diate election on this tax.

system He said the salaries of the
teachers were entirely too low and
that the lower grades were over

il was feared that all the entomb cd
men had been burned to death Dr
been blown TO bits. making the disas

shortly after 6 o'clock, not long
after the day shift had gone GoWn
into the pit. the blast occurred. Car
