NELSON SCORES F..
LOBBY INQUIRY

Washington. March 21.-"If this in
vestigation Is continued into every
piece of legislation on which interested
people appear, the lobby investigation
will soon become g. farce" declared
Sen. Knute Nelson yesterday. The
Minnesota senator's declaration fol-
lowed the examination of Edward
Boyle, who had been called before the
committee to tell about a fund OF $780,
600 alleged to have been raised to de-
feat the Hughes convict labor bill.
1--WE are running this thing into the
ground" continued Senator Nelson.
SIT appears that every time a man
comes here openly and above board, we
bring him before the committee. 1t is
very embarrassing to have this inves-
tigation of lobbying in these matters.
The farmers of Minnesota are inter-
ested in their state prison, and are OPP
posed to this bill; I also am opposed
to it It is very unpalpable that there
should be an investigation into a re-
port that those who come here to op-
pose this legislation are instruments of
an infamous lobby" 3 ,,F li.H
Senator Walsh of Montana tried to
smooth Senator Nelson down. "The
views OF members are not to be de-
termined by what this committee in
yestigates," said Senator Walsh. "The
Witness VINO Is mere To-Day Is apparent =
ly under very honest employment,
which he is perfectly willing to ex-
. pose
In the course of the hearing today,
Senator Nelson demanded to know
what labor leaders were here lobbying
for the bill.
Swear me and examine me IL you
want to know" said Senator Hughes,
the author Of the bill.
Mr.. Boyle, the witness under ex-
animation, demanded a complete ex-
oneration or condemnation at the
hands Of the committee.
1.-THE proceeding will do me great
injury said Boyle. 1T is a blow
beneath the belt; I want complete ex-
oneration or complete condemna-
ton S
1.-THE committee does not impute
anything. said Senator Welsh. You
take a wholly erroneous view Of the
matter. ,f. I
This brought Senator Nelson's
declaration that the lobby investfga-
ton was In danger OF becoming a
farce. s,@s

Austrian Retreat From Servia
"a ROut; Awful Cruelties Practiced
BY Invading Army, Says Shepherd

They were even denied a decent bur
ial.
The Austrians promised. with great
jubilation, 10 take us TO Belgrade, Nov.
20. But the plans were suddenly
changed. We were hurried out OF
Seryia In wagons. There was no ex,
PLANTATION for the sudden change of
plans, and after leaving the wagons
we were loaded on a train and taken
TO Budapest There huge wagon
trains filled the roads. There were
mad men and wounded, and then we
discovered that the Servians were ad-
vancing.
We had taken part in a retreat
an utter rout.
The day We left, terrific blizzard
was r.ging. The roads were In un-
speakable condition. The whole thing
MAS as IL Belgium should suddenly
arise and drive out the Germans.
Many officers went insane during the
retreat. One instance OF this was not
discovered until the Hungarian from
tier was reached. An Austrian lieu.
tenant, badly wounded, was lying on
the roadside, when he saw the major
vi Ills own W VI hhN
retreat. The lieutenant called 10 him.
The major turned and shot the wound
ed man IN the leg. The major was
stark mad.
After my many weeks OF associa-
ton with Austrian officers and jour
nalists | was taken completely by sur
prise at the terrible conditions in
Seryia.
The alarm sensed in the population
at Budapest was also noted in Vienna.
The city was flooded with homeless
refugees from Galicia. When | left
Vienna on Dec. 4, coal was being
doled out TO citizens in i5-pound lots,
and carried home by them either on
their shoulders, or. by the wealthy,
in taxicabs and carriages.
The Sustrians mercilessly criticise
the Germans, declaring the kaiser's
forces are not helping them. The
Hungarians bitterly assail the Aus
TRANS. asserting that the latter force
them to stand the brunt of the Ser
Wan charges.
Maj. Ford and Capt. MacIntyre, OF
the American army, wore with the
army that retreated from Servia.
When l reached Budapest on Nov.
80. was told by journalists there
that on the day previous Russian
cossacks had reached point within
65 miles OF the city.
