His temper rose as he began his testi-

He was so positive in making statements

Moon Says % Members
Switched Votes at Bchest
of Carriers Agents.
INVESTIGATION MAY
FOLLOW THE CHARGE

WASHINGTON. Dec. 1s.--The House was
stunned to-day when Representative Moon
of Tennessee, the Democratic chairman
OF the Committee on Post Offices made
tie charge IN open debate that rail-
Way lobby had been at work in an effort
10 influence members of Congress.
Mr.. Moon. who is one of the leaders
Of tn. House asserted that at the behest
Of AGENTS uf the railways twenty live
democratic members changed their votes
to-day on the question of adopting a rule
TO facilitate a REIMBURSEMENT of railway
mail pay.
Representative Henry OF Texas backed
up the assertion of Mr.. Moon by de
ciaring that the railroads had attempted
TO exert undue influence upon the Rules
committee. OF which Mr.. Henry is chair
mani
The inference was that the railways
were dissatisfied with "A provision in the
i1st Office bill rradjustiug railway mail
pay and that they had planned to de-
feat It,
The accusations of Messrs. Moon and
Henry followed the action of twenty five
democratic members in changing their
votes on a proposed rule providing for
consideration of the railway mail pay
provision. on the first roll call the vote
in favor of the rule was 1872 to ll2.
The switch Of twenty-five votes then re-
suited in the defeat of the rule.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1914-12-19

AS result of the accusations made by
..r. Moon and MIR. Henry 1t is altogether
probable that an inquiry may be ordered

who changed their votes follow:

CITY COUNCIL RAPED
FOR ACTION LAST MONDAY

Editor Capital Journal; Please al'
low me little space in your paper to
congratulate the good citizens and tax
payers Of Salem for the personnel Of
our city council, who in their might
and wisdom last Monday night turned
down Mark Savage and Walter Low for
the office Of fire-chief and street com
missioner. We know they were gov
erned by the purest motives and had
the best interests Of this city at heart,
and we should commend them for hav'
ing the courage Of their convictions in
ignoring the petitions Of the leading
citizens and taxpayers and insurance
companies.
Mark Savage probably hasn't had 10
or 20 years experience in this city as
a Fireman and fire.chief, and his being
now in the prime Of his life and his
knowledge Of the construction Of every
building in the city and the state In
stitutions Is nothing TO his favor, MOI
TO the taxpayers, when politics is al
stake,
J As to Walter Low, whose name is q
